One January evening in 2008, Rachel Lapierre bought a $4 lottery ticket at the grocery store. As a nearly full-
time emergency-room nurse and part-time volunteer aid worker, after an exhausting day cutting sugar maples , she
needed something to lift her spirits. For years, Lapierre had done humanitarian work overseas for organizations and
she longed to be able to one day quit her nursing job and focus on the volunteer work she found most fulfilling.
She swore to herself that if she ever won the lottery, that's what she would do. Lapierre went home and
scratched her ticket, revealing three sunny faces. Not sure what they meant, she took it to a corner store, where the
ticket-checking machine went berserk but didn't reveal the prize. The next day, the lottery office informed her that
she had won a lump sum of $6,75,000 or $1,000 a week for life. She chose the latter. “I know myself, ”she says.”
The lump sum would have melted like snow in the sun.”
高三英语 第 3 页(共9页)
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Staying true to her word, Lapierre quit her nursing job and dedicated her life to helping others through her
passion project, Le Book Humanitaire, which has since become a registered charity. LeBook, as Lapierre, now 62,
affectionately calls it, began as a simple list of good deeds she jotted down in a black-and-white notebook. She had
been using it to keep track of what she had done to help those living in the small communities around her.
To her, the deeds were just small acts of kindness that anyone else might have done. But word started spreading,
her phone began ringing and a Facebook page she created for the project became an efficient way to field requests
from those in need and those who wanted to help.
Le Book Humanitaire now has a team of 80 volunteers. The non-profit provides local emergency support,
homeless and medical out- reach, food delivery for seniors and a community fridge. Its kitchen volunteers make
about 500 meals a day, with all food donated from local restaurants, hospitals and schools.
The book itself? It has since been replaced by dozens more, representing millions of deeds. In2022 alone, the
organization carried out nearly 4,50,000 acts of service.
24. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?
A. Lapierre chose a lump sum of $6,75,000.
B. Lapierre loved her full- time job very much.
C. Lapierre knew the meaning of three sunny faces at first.
D. Lapierre didn’t think she would spend a large amount of money wisely.
25. What is Le Book Humanitaire?

26. Which of the following is true about the project?
A. It conducted 45000 acts of service in all.
B. It provided everything a community needed.
C. It relied on local donations to provide meals.
D. It was just about small acts of kindness for anyone else .
27. Which words can best describe Lapierre?

Hiking is tricky when you're carrying a threatened species. Ally Whitbread carefully jumped over logs while
carrying a cooler full of tiny, rare snails. “I feel like I've got like 500 babies to take care of just a very crazy mother
hen,” she said.
The Chittenango ovate amber snails inside are facing extinction. Only dozens are estimated to remain at one
waterfall in Upstate New York. But Whitbread is part of a team transporting a lab-bred population to a new, remote
home for a shot at survival. Such a recovery process can take years to decades, and success is obscure, but scientists
are racing to better understand our planet's biodiversity before species are wiped out.
The hike to a hidden waterfall is a chance to examine what makes them thrive in the wild, or what doesn't.
These efforts to study rare species can unlock their hidden benefits to humans, said Professor Laura Dee. “Our
idea that we might want to have a species down the line comes from the uncertainty of what the future is going to
bring, and what role that species might play,” Dee said.
高三英语 第 4 页(共9页)
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Like the once-rare Madagascar rosy periwinkle - a compound from the plant is now used in leukemia
treatments. While not every species will cure cancer, Dee said more study is needed because we don't fully know
what will happen if we lose them.
Even just observing species in their habitats can prove helpful. University of Utah biology professor Jack
Longino is cataloging the planet's ants. He said understanding how the insects communicate could help
programmers with robotics. “To create things, to make new technologies, we’re sort of imitating nature all the
time,” Longino said.
The Chittenango ovate amber snail doesn't have any known unique traits critical to humans, and it's been a
lengthy journey just to attempt to save them. The half-hour hike to the new habitat is the latest step in a process
that's lasted more than five years.
28. Which can best replace the underlined word “obscure” in Paragraph 2?
A. Undeniable. B. Unpredictable. C. Inevitable. D. Incomparable.
29. According to Professor Laura Dee, why should we save the Chittenango ovate amber snails?
A. Because they help programmers create robotics.
B. Because we have a great affection for this rare snail.
C. Because they can be adopted for the treatment of cancer and leukemia.
D. Because we are uncertain about the hidden benefits of them to humans.
30. What are Para.5 and Para.6 mainly about?
A. The benefits of sustaining and studying rare species.
B. The helpfulness of observing how ants communicate.
C. The consequences of losing rare animals and plants in nature.
D. The healing effect of the compound from Madagascar rosy periwinkle.
31. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Explore the rare species B. Tiny snails, Great benefits
C. Small snails, Long journey D. Save the extinct species

Mathematics and language arts are the two areas of study that are most heavily tested in school. However,
many people have not considered the strong relationship between mathematics and language skills. This relationship
makes sense when you think about it. After all, both mathematics and language require logical thinking and careful
attention to detail. They also both involve memorization, rote learning, and the ability to see patterns and make
connections. In other words, if you're good at one, you're more likely to be good at the other.
Young children are exposed to math concepts as they explore the natural world and the understanding of
mathematical ideas begins with language. For example physical states such as size, weight and quantity begin with
understanding vocabulary such as more and less or heavy and light. Preschools use experiential learning to build
these language-based math concepts, and it is not until later that children will begin to apply symbols and numbers
to the language of math.
Language supports math for word problems as well as how to organize information, sequence steps, and arrive
at conclusions. When a child is struggling with weak language comprehension or expression, they will find
challenges in fluid thinking for complex math. Additionally, mathematical thinking helps children develop ordered
thinking and visualization skills. These skills overlap language-based skills such as reading and writing, where
高三英语 第 5 页(共9页)
学科网（北京）股份有限公司students must infer, comprehend and connect new information to the world they know.
Nurture your children's natural curiosity. Help your children explore the world around them. Going to
museums, walking around the park, collecting seashells on vacation, or gardening are opportunities to learn about
new things and expand vocabulary. Play classic board games that involve making guesses and strategizing. Your
children will be exercising critical thinking skills without realizing they're learning.
32. What does the author want to convey in Paragraph 1?
A. English and math both require logical thinking.
B. People good at English will also do well in math.
C. There is a strong relationship between English and math.
D. English and math are the subjects most heavily tested in school.
33. What role does language play in children's learning of math?
A. It helps children build up their vocabulary.
B. It helps children understand math concepts.
C. It helps children lay a solid foundation for math.
D. It helps children apply symbols and numbers to math.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Language learning and math influence each other greatly.
B. Language learning helps students draw conclusions faster.
C. Mathematical thinking helps children learn language better.
D. Students weak in language will undoubtedly fail in complex math.
35. Why is natural curiosity important?
A. It helps children learn with ease and fun.
B. It helps children enjoy the games they play.
C. It helps children improve their critical thinking.
D. It helps children explore the world around them.

Cold and Flu Prevention Strategies
Colds and flu spread primarily via droplets released in the air when someone who is ill coughs, sneezes, or
talks, and via surface contact(touching something a sick person has touched). 36 .
Cough and sneeze into your elbow. Instead of covering your cough with your hand, turn your head and cough
into your elbow, which will requester a virus just as well. Your elbow, however, is far less likely than your hands to
come in contact with people or surfaces.
Wash up often. The more frequently you wash your hands, the lower your risk of becoming sick. Remember:
Colds and flu are caused by viruses not bacteria, 37 . Moreover, there's mounting evidence that triclosan —the
main active ingredient in many antibacterial soaps may facilitate the growth of resistant bacteria.
Avoid touching surfaces others touch. 38 . Block contact with faucets, door handles and other heavily
trafficked surfaces in public restrooms by cloaking your grip in a paper towel.
39 . Copper and copper alloys(brass, bronze) have inherent antimicrobial properties that make them capable
of reducing the spread of infection. Numerous follow-up studies of copper's antiviral properties indicate copper
高三英语 第 6 页(共9页)
学科网（北京）股份有限公司surfaces could be an effective means of reducing the spread of colds and flu —and even superbug bacteria such as
MRSA—if this prevention tactic were widely adopted. Check out copper products for your home or business.
Get regular exercise. While colder weather may trigger an urge to curl up in the sedentary comfort of a blanket,
moving your body will actually boost its immune function. In a 2006 study, researchers at the University of
Washington enrolled 115 women in either a weekly 45-minute stretching session or 45 minutes of moderate-intensity
exercise five days a week. After 12 months, the exercisers had developed significantly fewer colds than the stretchers
did. You needn't necessarily carve out time for jogging or the like, either. 40 .
A. Consider copper surfaces.
B. Keep copper surfaces off.
C. so it is advised that we use antibacterial soap to keep them away.
D. The surest natural way to lessen your odds of falling ill is to tweak some of your habits.
E. so counting on antibacterial soap as a safeguard against colds and flu won't be effective.
F. Everyday chores such as raking leaves or shoveling snow can count as moderate-intensity exercise.
G. Encourage your workplace to outfit bathroom doors with foot-operated openers that allow for a hands-free exit.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
April has been a vet(兽医) for many years. Throughout her practice, there have been many unusual cases.
Some were quite sad and some were even funny. But most of all she remembered one time on a rainy day a little
girl came to her with her little guinea pig(豚鼠).
She was in tears and asked April to save her beloved pet. “This is my only friend. I really love my Dorothy,”
the girl said. April examined the animal and realized that it was very ill. The pig looked young. Probably, it was
already sick when it was sold to the girl. The vet saw many children's tears, and each time she felt awful. But she
always found strength to say that she couldn't save the pet.
However, this time she looked at the girl and couldn't say anything. April saw how simply the girl was dressed
and thought that her family didn't make a lot of money. Therefore, the pig wasn't just a pet for her, but a real treasure.
“Tell me your phone number, so I can call you after the operation,” April said. “I’ll give you my grandmother’s
phone number, because I live with her. My parents were gone. Grandma said that they had gone somewhere far and
for a long time. By the way, they gave me the pig before leaving,” the girl said. April wrote down the number, and
when the girl left the clinic, she burst into tears. She realized her parents had died and the girl didn't know the truth
yet. How could she tell her that her guinea pig was going to die? April looked at the animal helplessly and wondered
what she could do. Suddenly she came up with an idea. But before doing it she put the guinea pig to sleep, and went
to the nearest pet store during lunchtime. She wanted to buy exactly the same guinea pig and give it to the girl.
