I disliked memorizing formulas (公式) and taking tests, all for the dull goal of getting a good grade. One of my teachers told my mother that I was “slow”. But my problem wasn’t with math itself. In fact, when a topic seemed particularly interesting, I would go to the library and read more about it.  By high school, no one told me that I could become a professional mathematician. What I wanted to do then was to play college football. My ambition (雄心) was to get an athletic scholarship to attend a Big Ten school. The chances of that happening were very low. But that didn’t stop my coaches from encouraging me to believe I could reach my goal, and preparing and pushing me to work for it. They made video tapes of my performances and sent them to college coaches around the country. In the end, a Big Ten school, Penn State, did offer me a scholarship. I wish math teachers were more like football coaches. Students are affected by more than just the quality of a lesson plan. They also respond to the passion (激情) of their teachers and the engagement of their peers, and they seek a sense of purpose. They benefit from specific (具体的) instructions and constant feedback (反馈). Until I got to college, I didn’t really know what mathematics was. Then my professor handed me a book and suggested that I think about a particular problem. It wasn’t easy, but it was fascinating. My professor kept giving me problems, and I kept pursuing (追求,追问) them, even though I couldn’t always solve them immediately. The mathematical research I was doing had little in common with what I did in my high school classrooms. Instead, it was closer to the math and logic puzzles I did on my own as a boy. It gave me that same sense of wonder and curiosity, and it rewarded creativity. I am now a PhD candidate (候选人) in mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 1. Why did the writer think math class in school was “something to be endured” before entering college? A. Because he wasn’t interested in math. B. Because his math teachers didn’t care to push him. C. Because he was too smart and talented for math class. D. Because he was training hard for an athletic scholarship. 2. According to the writer, students are affected by the following things from teachers or coaches EXCEPT 　　　　.  A. a sense of purpose B. constant feedback C. passion D. specific instructions 3. We can conclude that after entering college, the writer 　　　　.  A. was busy looking for math problems to solve B. studied on his own just as he was in high school C. met with laborious calculations in his studies D. began to realize what mathematics really is 4. What is the best title for the text? A. Interest Is the Best Teacher B. Be the Best—You Can Make It C. Math, Taught like Football D. Once Your Teacher, Always Your Teacher B (2023广东实验中学月考) What kind of people can become scientists? When a group of researchers posed that question to 9th- and 10th-graders, almost every student gave such responses as “People who work hard” or “Anyone who seems interested in the field of science”. Many of these same students struggled to imagine themselves as scientists, citing (引用) concerns such as “I’m not good at science” and “Even if I work hard, I will not do well”. It’s easy for them to see a scientist’s work as arising from an inborn talent. But for high school students, learning more about some struggles of scientists can help students feel more motivated to learn science. Researchers at the University of Washington designed an intervention (干预) to change students’ beliefs that scientific achievement depends on ability rather than effort by exposing students to stories of how accomplished scientists struggled and overcame challenges in their scientific efforts. During the study, the students read one of three types of stories about Albert Einstein, Marie Curie and Michael Faraday. Intellectual (智力的) struggle stories: stories about how scientists “struggled intellectually”, such as making mistakes while solving a scientific problem and learning from them. Life struggle stories: stories about how scientists struggled in their personal lives, such as not giving up in the face of poverty or lack of family support. Achievement stories: stories about how scientists made great discoveries, without any discussion of challenges. Researchers found that students who heard either type of “struggle stories” improved their after-intervention science performance, compared to students in the control group. The effect was especially pronounced for lower performing students, for whom exposure (接触) to struggling stories led to significantly better science-class performance than low-performing students who read achievement stories. In addition, students who read struggle stories reported feeling more personally connected to the scientists. By recognizing a scientist’s struggles and introducing the growth mindset he or she applied to accomplish great works, the students were able to empathize (产生共鸣) with the scientists during their own struggles. 5. Why do students fail to imagine themselves as scientists? A. They are short of confidence. B. They lack interest in science. C. They don’t have inborn talent. D. They have no ability to study science. 6. What’s the purpose of the intervention? A. To introduce some inspirational stories to students. B. To expose students to scientists’ great achievements. C. To ensure students will become scientists in the future. D. To clear students’ misunderstandings of scientific work. 7. What does the underlined word “pronounced” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Important. B. Noticeable. C. Strange. D. Long-lasting. 8. What can we learn from the research? A. Science ability has nothing to do with efforts. B. Students are more motivated by achievement stories. C. Scientists’ struggle stories can influence readers’ beliefs. D. Low-performing students tend to feel connected to scientists. C (2024-2025广东汕头高一下期中) Often, we do not consider how much a teacher has influenced us. Whether we realize it or not, teachers’ influence can alter a student’s perspective on life. A great many of my previous teachers have left a lasting impression on me that will never be forgotten. One name stands out in particular, and that is Mr. Jesse Barrett. Mr. Barrett taught me English in high school. Honestly, I could not have asked for a better teacher. Initially, I did not enjoy English due to some teachers who constantly lectured on irrelevant topics. But Mr. Barrett changed my outlook on life and helped me regain my passion for English. He never accepted late work, which taught me how to be prompt, a skill that will be beneficial when I attend college next fall. Mr. Barrett loved teaching, and he would sound so excited when we read The Great Gatsby, creating an atmosphere that causes students to feel comfortable and at ease. Everyone anticipated going to class and was quick to engage in discussions about the current book. Although he was very kind and helpful, when any issue arose, he was a very strict and concerned educator. Discipline(纪律) was strictly enforced in his classroom, which inspired me to be the best student I could possibly be. Mr. Barrett has a method where he asks for advice and invites students to participate in class activities. Students are divided into groups in which they can help one another answer questions. It is an exceptional way of learning English. Whether he realizes it or not, Mr. Barrett has influenced me tremendously. He simply guided me toward success and I am honored to have been in such a rigorous (严格的) and competitive class. The challenge for me was really the driving force that connected me to him, because I never felt as if the work was too easy or vague. Today, I honestly still believe he has helped me in such a way that it will continue to shape my post-secondary career. 9. What does the author emphasize in the first paragraph? A. Mr. Barrett’s lasting impressions on him. B. Mr. Barrett’s impact on his view of life. C. Mr. Barrett’s unforgettable unique name. D. Mr. Barrett’s approach of teaching English. 10. Why did the author feel bored of English at first? A. Because some teachers were too hard on the students in class. B. Because some teachers made the task too vague. C. Because some teachers created a competitive atmosphere in class. D. Because some teachers often wasted time on topics off the book. 11. What does the underlined word “prompt” mean in the passage? A. Quick in action. B. Effective in learning. C. Positive in life. D. Active in communication. 12. What can we infer from the author’s success? A. A kind teacher makes his students feel easy to learn. B. A passionate teacher is inspirational to his students. C. Taking learning seriously results in excellent grades. D. The environment of a class is important to students. 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (24-25山东临沂高一下阶段检测) Are school tests a challenge for you? Are you worried about getting through your next test? Here are some strategies that can help you. Don’t overthink it. If you spend too long thinking about a test, you can focus too much on the wrong things. For example: What if I fail? What if I miss the bus that day? 1 Instead, take a few deep breaths and start preparing calmly. 2 They can tell you how the test result reflects your learning progress. You may find that the result is just a step in your study journey, and it doesn’t define your overall ability. Maybe it won’t change much in your current situation, so there’s no need to be overly anxious. Teachers are experienced and can offer valuable advice tailored to your needs. Remember to check test details. Find out when a test will be and how long it will last and if the teacher has any requirements for the way you should write your answers on the test paper. 3 Knowing whether you need a calculator, extra paper, or a specific type of pen in advance will save you from last-minute troubles. This information also helps you plan your study time effectively. Revise if you want to. Some people choose to revise for tests. However, not everyone prefers to revise, and that is OK, too. If you do want to revise, design a workable schedule for your revision and stick to it. There are different ways to revise. You could create flash cards to test your knowledge of facts, ask a friend to test you on what you’ve both learnt, and explain what you’ve learnt to an adult to practice your explaining skills. 4 Get everything ready the night before so you feel organized, and remember to take a water bottle. On the day of the test, make sure you eat a healthy breakfast and allow plenty of time to reach school. Wish your friends good luck and be confident — you can do this! 5 A. These negative thoughts will only increase your stress and harm your performance. B. It’s a good idea to review your class notes regularly. C. Talk to your teachers if you really want to understand the significance of a test result. D. Different revision methods work for different people, so pick the one that suits you best. E. You should also think about joining a study group for better study results. F. Also, double-check the necessary test materials and equipment. G. These simple preparations will make you feel more relaxed and ready on test day. 参考答案： 一、单词填空 5 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 1. calligraphy 2. attract 3. option 4. contribute 5. alarm 6. attractive 7.
