When she told McNee how hard it could be to get students excited about math, her favourite discipline, he made a surprising suggestion: “Why not throw in something they enjoy, like sports?” The idea of mixing basketball and mathematics got its first shot in 2011, when the now colleagues — who had launched a tutoring non-profit — were invited to run a summer-school program for kids who’d failed Grade 9 math at Georges Secondary School. When the students showed up for their first day, they weren’t exactly excited. Over the next few hours, Mandekic and McNee gave the kids techniques to improve their shooting while also helping them calculate their field-goal percentage — which, in turn, taught them about fractions and decimal (分数和小数) points. At the end of the game, the winning team was determined based on which group had the highest total percentage and had done the most efficient math. “When the bell rang, they were so fixated on collecting their data and figuring out which team won that they didn’t leave,” says Mandekic. “I realized we might be onto something.” The classes, later named BallMatics, soon spread to other schools. “I was terrible at math,” says Douglas, who enrolled in a fast-track summer program. “But once I started BallMatics and realized the sport I loved was directly tied to math, it made me a lot better at it. Every time I played basketball, I was thinking about math.” Almost any math problem, McNee and Mandekic realized, can be taught on the court. Kids can learn how to navigate an X-Y grid to find their next shooting spot or absorb the basic principles of trigonometry based on the angle at which they release the ball. In 2019, McNec and Mandekic established a private high school called Uchenna Academy. At the school, kids with top basketball skills can study all subjects, train at their sport and work part-time helping out with the BallMatics afterschool programs. Douglas, now 20 and earning a degree in education believes the school’s commitment to academics is the key reason it’s been a winner. “If we didn’t do our work, we weren’t playing at the game,” he says, adding that coaches would bench kids who didn’t keep up in class. “At Uchenna, we were student athletes, not athlete students.” 4. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell the readers ______. A. the origin of BallMatics B. the challenges facing BallMatics C. the start of a lifelong friendship D. the dedication of the young teachers 5. What made Mandekic and McNee realize that they “might be onto something”? A. The students’ progress in their mathematic skills. B. The students’ changed attitude towards math. C. The data collected about the students’ goal percentage. D. The efficiency in determining the winning team. 6. What will happen to the kids who don’t do well in class according to Douglas? A. They will be forbidden to leave any training session. B. They will be obliged to earn a training degree first. C. They will have to attend classes at a private school. D. They will be banned from playing in the game. 7. The best title for the article is ______. A. The Basics of Math B. The Road to Success C. A Sports Principle D. A Numbers Game 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了Dave McNee和Claudia Mandekic将篮球和数学结合起来，创立了BallMatics课程，让学生在享受篮球的同时提高数学能力，并介绍了该课程的发展历程和影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The idea of mixing basketball and mathematics got its first shot in 2011, when the now colleagues — who had launched a tutoring non-profit — were invited to run a summer-school program for kids who’d failed Grade 9 math at Georges Secondary School.(将篮球和数学相结合的想法在 2011 年首次得到尝试，当时这两位如今的同事——他们已经创办了一个非营利性的辅导机构——受邀为在乔治中学九年级数学不及格的孩子们举办一个暑期学校项目)”以及第二段中“When the students showed up for their first day, they weren’t exactly excited. Over the next few hours, Mandekic and McNee gave the kids techniques to improve their shooting while also helping them calculate their field-goal percentage — which, in turn, taught them about fractions and decimal (分数和小数) points. At the end of the game, the winning team was determined based on which group had the highest total percentage and had done the most efficient math.(当学生们第一天出现时，他们并不兴奋。在接下来的几个小时里，Mandekic和McNee给孩子们传授了提高投篮水平的技巧，同时也帮助他们计算了投篮命中率——这反过来又教会了他们分数和小数。游戏结束时，根据哪一组的总百分比最高并做了最有效的数学计算来决定获胜的队伍)”可知，前两段主要介绍了BallMatics课程的起源，它源于2011 年Mandekic和McNee的一次暑期教学尝试。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“When the students showed up for their first day, they weren’t exactly excited.(当学生们第一天来的时候，他们并不怎么兴奋)”和“‘When the bell rang, they were so fixated on collecting their data and figuring out which team won that they didn’t leave,’ says Mandekic. ‘I realized we might be onto something.’(‘当铃声响起时，他们全神贯注于收集数据和计算哪支球队获胜，以至于他们都没有离开，’Mandekic说。‘我意识到我们可能找到了某种方法。’)”可知，是学生们对数学态度的改变让Mandekic和McNee意识到他们“可能找到了某种方法(might be onto something)”。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“‘If we didn’t do our work, we weren’t playing at the game,’ he says, adding that coaches would bench kids who didn’t keep up in class.(‘如果我们不做作业，我们就不能参加比赛，’他说，并补充说教练会让跟不上课堂的孩子坐冷板凳)”可知，根据Douglas的说法，在课堂上表现不好的孩子将被禁止参加比赛。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“The idea of mixing basketball and mathematics got its first shot in 2011(将篮球和数学结合起来的想法在2011年首次得到尝试)”以及后文关于BallMatics课程的介绍可知，本文主要讲述了Dave McNee和Claudia Mandekic将篮球和数学结合起来，让学生在享受篮球的同时提高数学能力。D项“A Numbers Game (数字比赛)”既体现了文章中的数学元素，又暗示了篮球比赛中的计分和数据分析，与文章主题紧密相关，是最佳标题。故选D项。 Terns (燕鸥) chirping and wolves howling are among a pioneering composition that integrates sounds from nature with traditional instruments. Bird songs and animal calls will interact with orchestral music on an album by Stewart Copeland. Wild Concerto, released on 18 April, is a “cooperation between nature and music”. A croaking frog, a black-footed albatross (信天翁), and a red deer will “perform” with Copeland, alongside 30musicians from the Kingdom Orchestra. Copeland said none of the natural recordings had been manipulated or returned. “All the bird and animal sounds are exactly as they were, but I put them in positions so that they add up to a melody and rhythm,” he said. “Their voices bring an super authenticity to the music. They all have their own individual melodies but when you put an instrument in, everything is more amazing.” Wild Concerto is inspired by the arctic tern’s migration from pole to pole, and creatures possibly encountered along the way. Copeland said there was a conservationist theme to the work. “Many of these species are endangered and their sounds could vanish in our lifetime. Through the Wild Concerto, their voices will be kept immortalized.” For six decades, he has captured sounds of the natural world, from rain-forests to deserts — recordings heard in natural history series such as Our Oceans and Blue Planet as well as about 150films. With a document of almost 100,000 recordings he has been called “the David Attenborough of sound”. Copeland is a brilliant talent. He’s combined natural sounds and music seamlessly. This is another way for people to listen to nature. He hopes the album will raise people’s awareness of creatures whose sounds cannot be clearly captured due to noise pollution: “Two-thirds of the species in my library are now basically extinct. Twenty-five or 30 years ago, when I wanted to record one hour of primitive sound, it took about three or four hours to do that with minimal editing, compared to 2,000 recording hours today, because there are so many man-made sounds in the environment...” 8. What is the feature of the album Wild Concerto? A. Integrating natural sounds with music perfectly. B. Mixing bird songs with animal calls completely. C. Producing super realistic bird songs and animal calls. D. Making successful changes to bird songs and animal calls. 9. What does the underlined word “manipulated” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Monitored. B. Analyzed. C. Matched. D. Edited. 10. What do we know about Copeland? A. He was optimistic and hopeful about the wildlife situation. B. He was indifferent and helpless about the noise pollution. C. He expressed his great concern about the endangered species. D. He demonstrated enormous passion about the success of the concert. 11. What does the author think of Copeland’s efforts? A. Time-consuming and fruitless. B. Notable and remarkable. C. Efficient and innovative. D. Meaningless and conventional. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述Stewart Copeland将自然界的声音与传统乐器相结合的先锋作品Wild Concerto。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Bird songs and animal calls will interact with orchestral music on an album by Stewart Copeland.(在Stewart Copeland的专辑中，鸟鸣和动物叫声将与管弦乐互动)”和第二段中“Wild Concerto, released on 18 April, is a ‘cooperation between nature and music’.(4月18日发行的Wild Concerto是‘自然与音乐的合作’)”可知，专辑Wild Concerto特点是将自然的声音与音乐完美相结合，故选A。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“All the bird and animal sounds are exactly as they were(所有的鸟和动物的声音都和原来一模一样)”可知，所有的鸟和动物的声音都和原来一模一样，所以没有任何自然声音被剪辑，manipulated意为“剪辑”，故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Copeland said there was a conservationist theme to the work. ‘Many of these species are endangered and their sounds could vanish in our lifetime. Through the Wild Concerto, their voices will be kept immortalized.’(Copeland说，这个作品的主题是环保主义。‘这些物种中有许多濒临灭绝，它们的声音可能在我们的有生之年消失。通过Wild Concerto，它们的声音将永垂不朽。’)”可知，Copeland的作品主题是环保主义，记录了可能会消失的濒危物种的声音，推知Copeland表达了对濒危物种的担忧，故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“For six decades, he has captured sounds of the natural world, from rain-forests to deserts — recordings heard in natural history series such as Our Oceans and Blue Planet as well as about 150 films. With a document of almost 100,000 recordings he has been called ‘the David Attenborough of sound’. Copeland is a brilliant talent. He’s combined natural sounds and music seamlessly. This is another way for people to listen to nature.(60年来，他一直在捕捉自然世界的声音，从雨林到沙漠，这些录音在《我们的海洋》和《蓝色星球》等自然历史系列节目以及大约150部电影中都能听到。他拥有近10万份录音文件，被称为‘声音界的David Attenborough’。Copeland是个才华横溢的天才。他把自然的声音和音乐无缝地结合在一起。这是人们聆听自然的另一种方式)”可知，作者提到Copeland捕捉了很多自然界的声音，认为Copeland的专辑是人们聆听自然的另一种方式，推知作者认为Copeland的努力重要、有非凡意义。故选B。 Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis. The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. “When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning. Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places. The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found.“That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue. You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot. 12. What is known about the paint? A. It has different colors. B. It doesn’t cost much. C. It uses heating technology. D. It is climate-friendly. 13. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show? A. The poor management of power. B. The significance of the paint. C. The importance of air conditioning. D. The result of global warming. 14. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4? A. Its application. B. Its function. C. Its composition. D. Its disadvantage. 15. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. The quality of the paint needs improving. B. The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies. C. Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use. D. Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了普渡大学的科学家们创造了世界上最白的涂料——这一发现不仅为“我们应该把这面墙涂成哪种白色”的困境增加了另一个选择，而且可能有助于解决气候危机。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming.”（这种涂料是由普渡大学机械工程教授阮秀林和他的团队开发的。它的工作原理是一种被动冷却技术，这种技术很有希望降低空间冷却成本和全球变暖。）可知，关于涂料我们知道它是气候友好型的。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a Queens blackout in 2006,175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places.”（在2006年皇后区的一次大停电中，17.5万人没有电，导致40人死亡。在一些地方，这种涂料可以有效地替代空调。）可推知，皇后区停电事件是为了说明涂料的意义。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found. “That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue.”（这种涂料能反射98.1%的太阳辐射，同时还能发出红外线。由于这种涂料从太阳吸收的热量比散发的热量少，涂上这种涂料的表面可以在不使用电力的情况下冷却到周围温度以下。研究人员发现，用这种涂料覆盖1000平方英尺的屋顶可以产生10千瓦的冷却功率。“这比大多数家庭使用的空调更强大，”阮告诉This Is Purdue。）可知，第4段主要谈论了涂料的功能方面的内容。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot.”（你现在还不能买到这种涂料，但研究人员正在与一家公司合作，将这种涂料推向市场。虽然个人行动对抗气候变化可以帮助拯救我们的地球，但重要的是要注意，世界上绝大多数温室气体排放可以追溯到100家公司。也许我们可以把这些公司也涂上这种白漆——值得一试。）可推知，从最后一段可以得知研究人员希望看到这种涂料在商业上的应用。故选C项。 Cold weather is good for you With winter approaching, people begin to complain about cold weather. ___16___ There’ s plenty to love about cold weather. And there’ s plenty of evidence that cooler temperatures can be part of a healthy life. First, cooler temperatures can help you lose weight. It can also help you sleep better. You might feel uncomfortable at first if you cool your bedroom down. But if you, for example, switch your bedroom temperature from 72 down to 62 degrees gradually over a few weeks, your body will adjust. ___17___ I have long kept my winter house temperature at 62 degrees. How did I find that number? Well, I experimented on myself about eight years ago. ___18___ I started at 66 and turned it down one degree every few days until 60. I found when the temperature was colder than 62, I couldn’t focus. But 62 was perfect. Another benefit for me was that it also kept me clear-headed while working at home. Interestingly, science also says 62 degrees is the magic number for brainwork. ___19___ It said 62 degrees was the temperature at which the schoolboy subjects of the study functioned perfect. And while we’ re speaking of work and school, other research shows that people study better when the weather outside is “bad”. ___20___ But according to a Harvard Health Letter from 2010, proper cold temperatures could be good for skin because it trains blood vessels in the skin to be responsive. So, rosy cheeks ! There’ s no reason to be afraid of winter weather. Hug it and you, too, can enjoy the season. A. I recently read a 1972 study. B. And you’ll save money on energy costs as well. C. Many people like to use cold water to wash their face. D. At that time, I worked at home and liked warm temperature. E. Most of us think cold weather leads to dry skin and wrinkling. F. The reason was that I hated spending money on heating bills. G. But if you’ re active and healthy, it doesn’t have to be a negative thing. 【答案】16. G 17. B 18. F 19. A 20. E 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。作者从自身经验出发论证了低温对身体健康的好处，比如：低温可以帮助你减肥。它也有助于您保持清醒，还可以节省取暖费用。且这一论点已经得到了科学的论证——哈佛大学2010年的一封健康信指出，适当的低温对皮肤有好处，因为它能训练皮肤中的血管做出反应。 【16题详解】 根据下文There’ s plenty to love about cold weather.可知，寒冷的天气有很多让人喜欢的地方，再根据上文With winter approaching, people begin to complain about cold weather.人们抱怨寒冷的天气，可推测上文是提出寒冷的天气也未必是一件坏事，故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文But if you, for example, switch your bedroom temperature from 72 down to 62 degrees gradually over a few weeks, your body will adjust.（但是，举例来说，如果你在几周内把卧室的温度从72度逐渐调低到62度，你的身体就会做出调整。）可推测，下文继续对这一行为进行说明：你还可以节省能源方面的支出。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文How did I find that number? Well, I experimented on myself about eight years ago.（我是怎么找到这个数字的?八年前我在自己身上做过实验。）可推测，下文是作者描述自己这么做的原因是：原因是我讨厌把钱花在取暖费上。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文Interestingly, science also says 62 degrees is the magic number for brainwork.（有趣的是，科学也说62度是脑力劳动的神奇数字。）可知，下文要提到科学方面的研究，science可对应到A选项中的study，故选A。 【20题详解】 根据下文But according to a Harvard Health Letter from 2010, proper cold temperatures could be good for skin because it trains blood vessels in the skin to be responsive.（但根据哈佛大学2010年的一封健康信，适当的低温对皮肤有好处，因为它能训练皮肤中的血管做出反应。）可知，But为转折连词，即前后文意思相反，故前文应为人们对低温的误解：我们大多数人认为寒冷的天气会导致皮肤干燥和起皱纹。故选E。 Jessica Parker discovered her enthusiasm for gardening and transformed her backyard into a peaceful retreat, which provided her with a safe space to process emotions and release negative feelings. ____21____ its positive impact, she decided to ____22____ the pleasure of gardening, hoping to make it known to others that nurturing the plants will bring a sense of ____23____ and fulfillment.

The look on my face must have indicated that I didn’t understand the question. She asked again, “Your red dress... Why are you wearing it? Today is a blue-dress day.” I rarely noticed what other people wore, so it never occurred to me that anyone would notice I had only two school dresses: a red dress with little yellow flowers and a blue one with navy trim around the neck. The red dress was my favorite, so I wore it on Mondays and Tuesdays. I put on the blue one on Wednesdays and Thursdays, then back to red each Friday. “Oh,” I stammered (结结巴巴地说). “I, uh, dropped chili (辣椒) on it yesterday at lunch. I, uh, can’t wear it until Mama washes it.” There was no judgment in Sherry’s question, just curiosity. For the first time in my life, though, I wondered, “Am l poor? Do my friends feel sorry for me?” Until the day when Sherry asked about my red dress, I had never compared my clothes, my little white house, or my life with anyone else’s. After school, I hung my red dress in the closet I shared with my older sister, Debra. I put on play clothes and went outside to sulk (生闷气). I climbed to the lowest branch of a scrawny oak and stared at my house. My mother called through the screen door for me to come set the table. I climbed down from my tree and shuffled into the kitchen. Mama was mashing potatoes in a big, green bowl. I opened a cabinet door and reached for five dinner plates. “Mama, are we poor?” I asked. I thought my question might make her feel bad. Instead, she asked, “What do you mean by’ poor’?” “You know, not enough money. Not enough food or clothes. No place to live.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “We don’t have a lot of extra money,” she answered, “but we get by.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After dinner, Mama said to me, “I washed and ironed your blue dress today.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： “We don’t have a lot of extra money,” she answered, “but we get by.” Look around, we have a roof over our heads, food on the table, and clothes on our backs. She continued, “Your father works hard, and I take care of this home. We love each other, and that’s what matters most. There will always be people with more, but that doesn’t make us poor. We have what we need.” I listened intently, understanding dawning on me. Her words made me feel better. I realized being poor wasn’t about clothes or money. After dinner, Mama said to me, “I washed and ironed your blue dress today.” She paused a moment and continued, “You can wear it tomorrow if you want.” I considered the offer. “No, I want to wear the red dress again. Its little yellow flowers make me feel good,” I replied. Enough to get by? Oh, I had more than that. I was fortunate with an amazing mother. She worked hard, played hard, and loved easily. Despite the hard blows of life, Mama chose joy and contentment. I was rich in every way that mattered. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在小学时因为穿着红色裙子而被同学询问，从而引发了对自家经济状况的思考，并最终通过母亲的解释明白了“贫穷”的真正含义，以及自己其实拥有很多宝贵的东西。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们没有很多余的钱，”她回答道，“但我们勉强过得去。””以及第二段首句内容“晚饭后，妈妈对我说：“我今天把你的蓝裙子洗了还熨好了。””可知，第一段可描写作者的妈妈告诉作者生活中有很多珍贵的东西。 ②由第二段首句内容“晚饭后，妈妈对我说：“我今天把你的蓝裙子洗了还熨好了。””可知，第二段可描写作者的妈妈让作者选择穿哪件衣服，而作者也明白了何谓贫穷。 2.续写线索：作者的妈妈告诉作者，有房子，桌上有食物，身上有衣服，这就是富有——妈妈告诉作者，爸爸努力，家人彼此相爱，才是重要的事情——作者意识到贫穷并不在于衣服 或者金钱——后来，妈妈告诉作者蓝裙子洗好熨好了，作者可以选择穿哪件衣服——作者思考后，决定还是穿红裙子——作者想到自己拥有一位了不起的妈妈，拥有彼此相爱的家人，突然觉得自己很富有 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①继续：continue/go on ②照顾：take care of/look after ③想要：want/would like 情绪类 ①幸运的：fortunate/ lucky ②高兴：joy/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】I realized being poor wasn’t about clothes or money.（运用了省略that的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】You can wear it tomorrow if you want.（运用了if引导的状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年福建省宁德市高三下学期命题趋势预测(一) 英语 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号框涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号框。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Seaside Cleanup Program General Introduction Our program aims to develop appreciation of our environment by including fun into environmental education.

When she told McNee how hard it could be to get students excited about math, her favourite discipline, he made a surprising suggestion: “Why not throw in something they enjoy, like sports?” The idea of mixing basketball and mathematics got its first shot in 2011, when the now colleagues — who had launched a tutoring non-profit — were invited to run a summer-school program for kids who’d failed Grade 9 math at Georges Secondary School. When the students showed up for their first day, they weren’t exactly excited. Over the next few hours, Mandekic and McNee gave the kids techniques to improve their shooting while also helping them calculate their field-goal percentage — which, in turn, taught them about fractions and decimal (分数和小数) points. At the end of the game, the winning team was determined based on which group had the highest total percentage and had done the most efficient math. “When the bell rang, they were so fixated on collecting their data and figuring out which team won that they didn’t leave,” says Mandekic. “I realized we might be onto something.” The classes, later named BallMatics, soon spread to other schools. “I was terrible at math,” says Douglas, who enrolled in a fast-track summer program. “But once I started BallMatics and realized the sport I loved was directly tied to math, it made me a lot better at it. Every time I played basketball, I was thinking about math.” Almost any math problem, McNee and Mandekic realized, can be taught on the court. Kids can learn how to navigate an X-Y grid to find their next shooting spot or absorb the basic principles of trigonometry based on the angle at which they release the ball. In 2019, McNec and Mandekic established a private high school called Uchenna Academy. At the school, kids with top basketball skills can study all subjects, train at their sport and work part-time helping out with the BallMatics afterschool programs. Douglas, now 20 and earning a degree in education believes the school’s commitment to academics is the key reason it’s been a winner. “If we didn’t do our work, we weren’t playing at the game,” he says, adding that coaches would bench kids who didn’t keep up in class. “At Uchenna, we were student athletes, not athlete students.” 4. The first two paragraphs are intended to tell the readers ______. A. the origin of BallMatics B. the challenges facing BallMatics C. the start of a lifelong friendship D. the dedication of the young teachers 5. What made Mandekic and McNee realize that they “might be onto something”? A. The students’ progress in their mathematic skills. B. The students’ changed attitude towards math. C. The data collected about the students’ goal percentage. D. The efficiency in determining the winning team. 6. What will happen to the kids who don’t do well in class according to Douglas? A. They will be forbidden to leave any training session. B. They will be obliged to earn a training degree first. C. They will have to attend classes at a private school. D. They will be banned from playing in the game. 7. The best title for the article is ______. A. The Basics of Math B. The Road to Success C. A Sports Principle D. A Numbers Game Terns (燕鸥) chirping and wolves howling are among a pioneering composition that integrates sounds from nature with traditional instruments. Bird songs and animal calls will interact with orchestral music on an album by Stewart Copeland. Wild Concerto, released on 18 April, is a “cooperation between nature and music”. A croaking frog, a black-footed albatross (信天翁), and a red deer will “perform” with Copeland, alongside 30musicians from the Kingdom Orchestra. Copeland said none of the natural recordings had been manipulated or returned. “All the bird and animal sounds are exactly as they were, but I put them in positions so that they add up to a melody and rhythm,” he said. “Their voices bring an super authenticity to the music. They all have their own individual melodies but when you put an instrument in, everything is more amazing.” Wild Concerto is inspired by the arctic tern’s migration from pole to pole, and creatures possibly encountered along the way. Copeland said there was a conservationist theme to the work. “Many of these species are endangered and their sounds could vanish in our lifetime. Through the Wild Concerto, their voices will be kept immortalized.” For six decades, he has captured sounds of the natural world, from rain-forests to deserts — recordings heard in natural history series such as Our Oceans and Blue Planet as well as about 150films. With a document of almost 100,000 recordings he has been called “the David Attenborough of sound”. Copeland is a brilliant talent. He’s combined natural sounds and music seamlessly. This is another way for people to listen to nature. He hopes the album will raise people’s awareness of creatures whose sounds cannot be clearly captured due to noise pollution: “Two-thirds of the species in my library are now basically extinct. Twenty-five or 30 years ago, when I wanted to record one hour of primitive sound, it took about three or four hours to do that with minimal editing, compared to 2,000 recording hours today, because there are so many man-made sounds in the environment...” 8. What is the feature of the album Wild Concerto? A. Integrating natural sounds with music perfectly. B. Mixing bird songs with animal calls completely. C. Producing super realistic bird songs and animal calls. D. Making successful changes to bird songs and animal calls. 9. What does the underlined word “manipulated” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Monitored. B. Analyzed. C. Matched. D. Edited. 10. What do we know about Copeland? A. He was optimistic and hopeful about the wildlife situation. B. He was indifferent and helpless about the noise pollution. C. He expressed his great concern about the endangered species. D. He demonstrated enormous passion about the success of the concert. 11. What does the author think of Copeland’s efforts? A. Time-consuming and fruitless. B. Notable and remarkable. C. Efficient and innovative. D. Meaningless and conventional. Scientists at Purdue University created the world’s whitest paint — a discovery that not only adds yet another choice to the “which white should we paint this wall” dilemma, but also might help the climate crisis. The paint was developed by Purdue mechanical engineering professor Xiulin Ruan and his team. It works through a passive cooling technology that offers great promises to reduce space cooling cost and global warming. “When we started this project seven years ago, we had saving energy and fighting climate change in mind,” Ruan said in a podcast (播客) episode of This Is Purdue. They wanted to create a paint that would reflect sunlight away from a building, dramatically decreasing the need for air conditioning. Heating, cooling, and lighting account for 28 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions. And overusing air conditioning can overwhelm a city’s power grid and cause blackouts (停电). In a Queens blackout in 2006, 175,000 people were left without power, which lead to 40 deaths. This paint could effectively be an alternative to air conditioners in some places. The paint reflects 98.1%of solar radiation while also giving out infrared (红外线的) heat. Because the paint takes in less heat from the sun than it gives out, a surface coated with this paint is cooled below the surrounding temperature without using power. Covering a roof area of 1,000 square feet with the paint could create 10 kilowatts ofcooling power, the researchers found.“That’s more powerful than the air conditioners used by most houses,”Ruan told This Is Purdue. You can’t buy the paint just yet, but researchers are partnering with a company to put the paint on the market. While individual action to fight elimate change can help save our planet, it’s important to note that the vast majority of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions can be traced back to 100companies. Maybe we can douse(浇) those companies with this white paint, too — it could be worth a shot. 12. What is known about the paint? A. It has different colors. B. It doesn’t cost much. C. It uses heating technology. D. It is climate-friendly. 13. What is the Queens blackout mentioned to show? A. The poor management of power. B. The significance of the paint. C. The importance of air conditioning. D. The result of global warming. 14. Which aspect of the paint is talked about in Paragraph 4? A. Its application. B. Its function. C. Its composition. D. Its disadvantage. 15. What can be learned from the last paragraph? A. The quality of the paint needs improving. B. The paint will bring profits to the 100 companies. C. Researchers want to see the paint in commercial use. D. Individual efforts matter in creating the whitest paint. Cold weather is good for you With winter approaching, people begin to complain about cold weather. ___16___ There’ s plenty to love about cold weather. And there’ s plenty of evidence that cooler temperatures can be part of a healthy life. First, cooler temperatures can help you lose weight. It can also help you sleep better. You might feel uncomfortable at first if you cool your bedroom down. But if you, for example, switch your bedroom temperature from 72 down to 62 degrees gradually over a few weeks, your body will adjust. ___17___ I have long kept my winter house temperature at 62 degrees. How did I find that number? Well, I experimented on myself about eight years ago. ___18___ I started at 66 and turned it down one degree every few days until 60. I found when the temperature was colder than 62, I couldn’t focus. But 62 was perfect. Another benefit for me was that it also kept me clear-headed while working at home. Interestingly, science also says 62 degrees is the magic number for brainwork. ___19___ It said 62 degrees was the temperature at which the schoolboy subjects of the study functioned perfect. And while we’ re speaking of work and school, other research shows that people study better when the weather outside is “bad”. ___20___ But according to a Harvard Health Letter from 2010, proper cold temperatures could be good for skin because it trains blood vessels in the skin to be responsive. So, rosy cheeks ! There’ s no reason to be afraid of winter weather. Hug it and you, too, can enjoy the season. A. I recently read a 1972 study. B. And you’ll save money on energy costs as well. C. Many people like to use cold water to wash their face. D. At that time, I worked at home and liked warm temperature. E. Most of us think cold weather leads to dry skin and wrinkling. F. The reason was that I hated spending money on heating bills. G. But if you’ re active and healthy, it doesn’t have to be a negative thing.

The look on my face must have indicated that I didn’t understand the question. She asked again, “Your red dress... Why are you wearing it? Today is a blue-dress day.” I rarely noticed what other people wore, so it never occurred to me that anyone would notice I had only two school dresses: a red dress with little yellow flowers and a blue one with navy trim around the neck. The red dress was my favorite, so I wore it on Mondays and Tuesdays. I put on the blue one on Wednesdays and Thursdays, then back to red each Friday. “Oh,” I stammered (结结巴巴地说). “I, uh, dropped chili (辣椒) on it yesterday at lunch. I, uh, can’t wear it until Mama washes it.” There was no judgment in Sherry’s question, just curiosity. For the first time in my life, though, I wondered, “Am l poor? Do my friends feel sorry for me?” Until the day when Sherry asked about my red dress, I had never compared my clothes, my little white house, or my life with anyone else’s. After school, I hung my red dress in the closet I shared with my older sister, Debra. I put on play clothes and went outside to sulk (生闷气). I climbed to the lowest branch of a scrawny oak and stared at my house. My mother called through the screen door for me to come set the table. I climbed down from my tree and shuffled into the kitchen. Mama was mashing potatoes in a big, green bowl. I opened a cabinet door and reached for five dinner plates. “Mama, are we poor?” I asked. I thought my question might make her feel bad. Instead, she asked, “What do you mean by’ poor’?” “You know, not enough money. Not enough food or clothes. No place to live.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “We don’t have a lot of extra money,” she answered, “but we get by.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After dinner, Mama said to me, “I washed and ironed your blue dress today.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
