How does a brilliant teacher get that way The question of how they developed has as many answers as there are inspired instructors.One example is an original and charming woman who has become one of the best ever at taking disadvantaged students to a new level.
Jackson was born in Altoona.Her father was a construction worker.When she was in the eighth grade, her father died.Her principal, Mrs Brown, said not to worry about schoolwork for a while.That upset her.Her father would not have wanted her to do anything but her best.He always said, “Don't let your first failure be the reason for your next one.”
Jackson was an accomplished shooting guard in basketball and a star sprinter on the track team, running the quarter mile in 57 seconds.She thought she might become a sports broadcaster.She gave no thought to teaching until a friend took her to an introduction to a programme, which placed novice instructors in schools full of low income children.Jackson liked the idea of giving back, as well as the chance to have some of her student loans forgiven.
She is a big sports person, and that is how she connects with lots of children.She couldn't motivate children until she knew what was bothering or pleasing them. “Students learn from people who love them，” she said.“They will be motivated and inspired to learn if they know deep down that you care about them.” In class she gave basketball tickets to students who were doing their work.At weekly drawings they could win sticky notes, pencils or other small prizes.
She helped create after school clubs.A tall student said to her, “I'm a baller.I heard you play ball.” There was a basketball league in Paterson, but the school didn't have a team.Jackson started one with support from local business executives.The student, Essence Carson, who went to Rutgers University, was a first round draft(运动员选拔制) selection for the WNBA's New York Liberty and now plays for the Connecticut Sun.
24．Why did Mrs Brown's words upset Jackson
A．Her father just passed away.
B．She was taught to do her best.
C．Her first failure led to another one.
D．She was concerned about her grades.
25．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A．The way Jackson turned teacher.
B．The dream job Jackson desired.
C．The student loans Jackson owed.
D．The athletics Jackson did well in.
26．Why did Jackson give small prizes to her students in class
A．To connect with them.
B．To please or bother them.
C．To encourage them to learn.
D．To show her love to them.
27．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Jackson founded a school team in Paterson alone.
B．Jackson played in the basketball league in Paterson.
C．Jackson selected Essence to play for the WNBA's New York Liberty.
D．Jackson should take some credit for Essence's professional career.

There are many ways to travel within a city.We can walk, cycle or take a bus.But no matter which way we travel, we have to follow the route the city planners made for us.
Parkour(跑酷) practitioners, however, see the city in a completely different way. To them, there are no fixed routes.There are no walls and no stairs—since they jump, climb, roll and crawl to move across, through, over and under anything that they find in their path.The city is their playground.
The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has noticed that this activity is attracting more and more people to it—there are 100,000 people taking part in parkour today in the UK alone, according to The Guardian—and how it is helpful for people to be much stronger: It trains coordination and balance.So, the organisation is thinking about recognising parkour as a new sport and adding it to the 2024 Olympics.
However, parkour practitioners themselves don't seem to be happy with the idea. They see parkour as “a lifestyle”， wrote the website Next Sport Star.“It's a competition against the conditions rather than just a sport.”
Indeed, many do parkour just to “escape the daily routine and experience the city in different ways”， wrote reporter Oli Mould on The Conversation.They see parkour as a way to express themselves through relaxing moves and creative routes while freeing themselves from the pressure.
It's great that the FIG wants to develop a new sport and stay close to a new cultural form.But it would be greater if they knew that not everything in life is a competition.
28．How do the parkour practitioners travel within the city
A．By following fixed routes.
B．By cycling.
C．By using their own ways.
D．By taking a bus.
29．What does FIG think of parkour
A．It is a dangerous sport.
B．It should be an Olympic sport.
C．It is becoming a normal sport.
D．It can become a healthy sport.
30．What can we learn from the fourth paragraph
A．Parkour is a lifestyle in the practitioners' eyes.
B．Parkour is a daily routine for the reporter.
C．Parkour is already an Olympic sport.
D．Parkour should follow the designed ways.
31．What is the author's attitude towards parkour
A．Negative. B．Unconcerned.
C．Worried. D．Objective.
D
I am thrilled to welcome you to the 20th annual Roger Ebert's Film Festival, a special event in partnership with the University of Illinois College of Media, the greater Urbana Champaign community, and movie lovers everywhere.Little did we think, back in 1999, that our experiment in reinventing the film festival—to make a festival that celebrated overlooked films and the women and men who made those films—would become a landmark annual event in the life of our community and contribute to the repairs of the remarkable Virginia Theatre.
In selecting the films for this year, Chaz Ebert and I looked to women filmmakers for our inspiration.Fully half of our films are either directed or co directed by women, and several others have women in powerful producing roles.Films directed or co directed by women include 13th, directed by Ava DuVernay, Belle, directed by Amma Asante, and American Splendor, directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini.And women producers include Lynda Obst and Emma Thomas (Interstellar) and Ruth Ann Harnisch and Danielle Renfrew Behrens (Columbus)．
Our opening night film is The Fugitive, directed by Andrew Davis, a graduate from University of Illinois.Our Saturday night film is the classic The Big Lebowski.Our guest will be the Hollywood master Jeff Dowd.And of course The Alloy Orchestra will be back, this year with A Page of Madness, the classic Japanese silent film.
We would like to thank our sponsors, volunteers, festival pass holders, and individual ticket holders for their welcome participation.We look forward to your unwavering support to make our festival more successful each spring in central Illinois.We especially want to thank the University of Illinois for their loyal support year after year.
32．What was the purpose of reinventing Roger Ebert's Film Festival in 1999
A．To enrich the life of residents.
B．To help rebuild Virginia Theatre.
C．To work closely with the University of Illinois.
D．To honour people whose films were not box office hits.
33．What is the focus of this year's film selection
A．Hollywood classics.
B．Films produced or directed by women.
C．Diversity in themes.
D．Stories featuring female leading roles.
34．What does the underlined word “unwavering” in the last paragraph probably mean
A．Consistent. B．Original.
C．Legal. D．Conditional.
35．Who is most likely the author of the passage
A．The President of the University of Illinois.
B．A movie critic who is a friend of the Eberts.
C．A member of the festival's organising committee.
D．A journalist who reports stories about the festival.

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。
How to Cope When Life Does
Things We Can't Control
Stuff happens in life. 36 We neither see the difficulties coming, nor have control to stop them.The result, of course, is more anxiety and stress than we know.Here are approaches that can help us move through what life throws us.
Throw our inner victim a life jacket.When life becomes messy, it often feels easier to just throw up our hands and assume we can't do anything. 37 Being a victim often allows us to pretend we are fine and choose to feel sorry for ourselves. While we can't change what has happened, none of us are powerless. Consider finding a stress support group or calling a hotline.We all have the power to choose our next step in life.
38 When we are under stress, the natural tendency is to “talk things through” with our friends and loved ones. 39 Writing things down on paper can be an amazing way to make the facts clear and keep them straight.The process of moving thoughts to hands makes it harder for us to lie to ourselves.The more we get about the truth of our situation, the more ways we can source to deal with it.We might also benefit from writing down our ideas for managing our situation.
Switch our perspectives(思考方法)． 40 It rarely is.Instead, it's a perspective.Imagine life is a statue, and that many people surround the statue, how many more angles are there to see things from besides the one you are standing at Sometimes a new perspective can put us into a better mindset.
A．Be honest on paper.
B．It does work, but not always.
C．This is a form of victim mode.
D．And often, difficult stuff happens.
E．Therefore, life may throw us a curve ball.
F．Get support from our friends and loved ones.
G．Many of us believe what we think is the whole truth.

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。
When I was in middle school, my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest. I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil, so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did.
So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try.
I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice.
What did the horse think, as he sped through the night Did he get tired Have doubts Did he want to quit I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half-dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them.
When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care.
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。
A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news.
I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation.兆麟高级中学2022-2023学年高二下学期期末考前模拟

2．C 空前讲到“当生活一团糟时，通常我们很轻易就会摊手，认定我们什么也做不了”，根据常识可知，这是一种受害者心理，且空后讲到“受害者心理通常会让我们假装我们很好，选择顾影自怜”，因此C项承上启下，符合语境。

Ⅳ.语法填空
答案与解析
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。国乐大师方锦龙邀请作曲家马久越一起创作专辑《音乐·诗经》，用音乐的语言来描绘诗歌，向更多的人展示了古典文化之美。
1．collection 考查词性转换。形容词修饰名词，根据空前的existing可知，空处应为名词形式，故填collection。
2．in 考查介词。固定短语be interested in，意为“对……感兴趣”，故填in。
3．fully 考查词性转换。空处修饰动词understand，应用副词形式，故填fully。
4．to create 考查非谓语动词。invite sb to do sth为固定用法，意为“邀请某人做某事”，故填to create。
5．featuring 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语the album是主动关系，应用现在分词作状语，故填featuring。
6．were performed 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据空后的won可知，本句时态为一般过去时，此处表示“它们被方锦龙演奏”，应用被动语态，且结合They可知，谓语动词应用复数形式，故填were performed。
7．sends 考查时态和主谓一致。根据空前的conveys和空后的portrays可知，此处谓语动词用一般现在时，先行词为Swallows，表单数概念，which指代先行词在从句中作主语，所以此处用动词的第三人称单数，故填sends。

Secondly, we should strive to surround ourselves with supportive people who encourage and inspire us. Last, make it a habit to take regular exercise. After all, a sound mind in a sound body is what it takes to chase our ultimate goals.
It’s time to start prioritizing mental health, so that everyone can enjoy the benefits of good mental health.

M: Hello, Sara.
W: Hello, David. I can’t come for dinner tonight. Sorry.
M: Oh, what happened
W: We’ve got a new case and things get pretty crazy here in the office.
M: Well, then I’ll come to you.
W: No, no, not tonight. Let me see if I can arrange another night.
M: Sara, please. We need to talk. It’s about my job.
W: Then tell me on the phone.

W: Yes. A hundred percent.

W: Morning, Mark.
M: Morning, Clara. How was your weekend
W: Great. I went to my grandpa’s. He invited us to pick vegetables on his farm. My daughter had a great time there. What about you
M: Oh, I had a truly incredible experience. I dropped by a yard sale on Saturday and got several books.
W: Novels
M: A novel and two poetry collections. As I leafed through the novel, a piece of paper fell out. It was an air ticket from 2012. The flight was from Los Angeles to Chicago and the name on the ticket was Ashley Louis.
W: Was it
M: Yes! Ashley, my sister! In 2012, she lived in Los Angeles and her husband worked in Chicago. Both of them often flew between the two cities. I asked the seller where he got the book. He said it was bought at a second-hand bookstore in Los Angeles three years ago. Last year, he and his family moved from Los Angeles to Philadelphia.
W: So, all the way across the country, your sister’s old book landed in your hands. That’s really crazy.

W: Victor, you’ve been here in Indiana for six weeks now. How are you feeling
M: I think I’ve got used to college life, going to classes, working out and hanging out with my friends. Though there’s pressure to meet deadlines, life here is never boring.
W: What’s been hard about being an Indiana basketball player
M: Well, the training is very competitive — weightlifting and running every day. It’s not like high school. In high school, I really didn’t have to do that. I’m just trying to get used to it. And I think I am.
W: At this point, how do you see yourself fitting into this group
M: I think we are all different. George is from Britain. Chris and Leo are from Australia. I’m from France. And the rest are Americans. But I get along with everybody. You know, we are really starting to bond. It’s great to see how we grow each day as a team.
W: Thanks, Victor. I wish you a very happy and fruitful stay in Indiana.
