educator forwhom teaching is a mission.She believes that self-respect and strong relationships are the realbuilding blocks of educational development and the path to self-actualization in life.AndPhilipps,known as Cool Miss P,continues to win hearts on social media,as well as in theclassroom,with millions of views on TikTok and Instagram.Philipps,from Georgia,in the US,is on a mission to put self-respect into the little onesshe works with.She has hung a mirror on her classroom door so the children can practice daily“mirror affirmations（肯定）”as she enthusiastically encourages them to“be the best that youcan be”.Since she was young,Philipps was told by people around her that her love for childrenwould make her a great teacher one day.She was also inspired by several of her own teachers.Then a serious accident last year made her feel grateful for living and encouraged her to bringjoy into her classroom.She tries to make sure that her students are happy by putting her heartinto developing the teacher-student relationship.Philipps shares one of her Instagram posts:“I am sticking to my purpose.I am a teacher,working to impact,inspire,and elevate all of these precious little lives.For young kids,positiveaffirmations can help make them feel capable of doing morebig kidthings.They can alsohelp increase kidsself-respect and make them more resilient（有承受力）to bullying andother negative life situations.”Cool Miss P puts this idea into action each and every school day to inspire all her youngstudents.So it s not surprising that so many people viewing her posts leave comments sayingthat the world needs more teachers like her.24.Why does Philipps hang a mirror on her classroom door?A.To raise students confidence.B.To decorate the classroom.C.To light the

Philipps s practice in teaching?A.Approving.B.Indifferent.C.Unclear.D.Doubtful.CGetting rid of old tyres has long been a problem.Every year more than a billion reach theend of the road.Until recently,most were thrown into landfills or piled up in storage yards.Tougher environmental laws mean many countries now insist tyres are recycled.Some firms,therefore,have begun exploring a great idea.Since tyres are mostly made fromhydrocarbons,it should be possible in principle to turn old tyres into low-carbon fuel which canbe used to run the vehicles they came from.One of the most ambitious firms pursuing the ideais Wastefront,which is based in Oslo,in Norway.Later this year the company will start buildinga giant tyre-recycling plant.In a couple of years,when the plant is fully operational,it will beable to turn 8m old tyres into new products,including some 25,000 tons of a black liquid calledtyre derived oil（TDO）.The process works by deconstructing（解构）a tyre into three main parts.One is steel,which is used to brace the structure of a tyre.The second is carbon black,a powdery carbonused to improve the durability of the tyre.The third is rubber.In order to do the deconstructing,the tyres are first shredded and the steel bracingremoved.The remaining material then goes through a process called pyrolysis（热解）.Thisinvolves exposing a material to high temperatures in the absence of air.That causes the rubberto turn into a mix of hydrocarbon gases,which are drawn off.What is left behind is purecarbon black.Once the drawn-off gas has cooled down,a part of it changes into TDO.Theremaining gases,which include methane,are funneled back around to be burned,fuelling thereactor.The overall output of the process by weight is 40%TDO,30%carbon black,20%steeland 10%gas.The recovered TDO is similar to crude oil fresh from the ground.The carbonblack can be re-used to make new tyres,which is of interest to tyre-makers.This,says VianneyVals,Wastefront s boss,creates a closed-loop system that prevents emissions.6#QQABJYSAogggAAAAAQgCAwEwCEIQkAGCCKoOQBAAoAAAgANABCA=#高三英语试题 第页（共12页）28.What can we learn about old tyres from the first paragraph?A.A billion of them are on the road.B.Throwing them into landfills is easy.C.How to handle them is challenging.D.Environmental laws insist tyres be piled up.29.Why will Wastefront start building a giant

ambition.B.To show the success of the idea.C.To stress the output of deconstructing.D.To compare different output of deconstructing.31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Recycling tyres:Fuel from your wheelsB.One Common Energy Recovery MethodC.How to deconstruct old tyres reasonablyD.An alternative,pleasingly realistic ideaDThe term“digital equity（公平）”has been talked about for several years,but schoolclosures during the COVID-19 epidemic have brought increased attention to the issue.However,while much focus has been on improving access to technology for students,an areaof digital equity that often gets neglected is how parents are expected to engage with theirchildren s schools.Research shows that students with engaged families earn higher grades,adapt morequickly,have better behavior and social skills.Parents who know what is happening in theclassroom are better equipped to help their children succeed and can combine learning at homewith learning at school.That s why equitable communication with parents needs to be part of adistrict s overall equity goals.Equitable parent communication requires schools to meet parents where they are,especially considering that nearly 1 in 4 US homes live with no Internet access.Parents who do7#QQABJYSAogggAAAAAQgCAwEwCEIQkAGCCKoOQBAAoAAAgANABCA=#高三英语试题 第页（共12页）not have smart phones or personal computers should have the same access to their children steachers as parents with the latest technology.Often districts use communication platforms that require parents to log into a website,choose a messaging service,or download software.Each of these obstacles restrictscommunication pathways for parents who do not have access to the required technology.Districts should consider platforms that enable parents to receive phone calls to fixed-linetelephones and SMS messages to standard cellphones.In addition,platforms that focus on“blast”and“mass”types of messaging are sufficientfor distributing information related to an entire classroom or school but miss the mark ondeveloping meaningful relationships with individual parents and creating real engagingopportunities.Districts should opt to use tools that create digital equity for parents and createan environment where meaningful conversations can take place.To conclude,good school-home relationships are a crucial factor in children s education.Positive school-home relationships must get supported as equitable communication is thepathway to engaging all parents in helping students achieve more success.32.What does the underlined word“neglected”in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Mentioned.B.Ignored.C.Explored.D.Stressed.33.What is the result of the research in Paragraph 2?A.Students can adapt to school life easily.B.Students can deal with challenges on their own.C.Parents habits significantly affect their children.D.Parents involvement in children s schooling is rewarding.34.What should districts do to promote positive school-home relationships?A.Make environment more friendly.B.Provide free cellphones for parents.C.Popularize communication websites.D.Find ways to provide equitable communication.35.What is the main idea of the text?A.Digital equity can help students succeed.B.Parents should value communication platforms.C.School-home relationships are important in children s education.D.Meaningful conversations will benefit children s education greatly.8#QQABJYSAogggAAAAAQgCAwEwCEIQkAGCCKoOQBAAoAAAgANABCA=#高三英语试题

desire for pleasing others.36It can also result in weak boundaries,problems withdecision-making,and low self-worth.For that reason,it s important to recognize and overcomeyour own people-pleasing behaviors.Here are simple exercises that you can start working ontoday.1.Practice being alone37Trust that people will not abandon you,even if you don t drop everything for them.Believe you are lovable

does not hold as much value as a plan you make with someone else.Don t break anyplans you make with yourself,whether it s going to the gym or studying for an exam.3.Practice saying“no”If you re a people-pleaser you may find it hard to say“no”because you feel it comesacross as cruel or uncaring.39Be clear,be direct,and use“I”statements.Try statementslike:“I would really love to be able to help you,but unfortunately,I m already committed atthat time.”By consistently integrating these strategies into your life,I m confident you ll break yourpeople-pleasing habits.40This will yield an overall improvement in self-confidence andlife satisfac
