a farm,I learned from my parents about the large bees we called mangangava.But in college when I gave a presentation about those bees,I didnt mention their familiar name;instead I used formal terms when describing their adaptations for pollinating(授粉).I was afraid of being judged for expressing my personal knowledge in a science class.But when the instructor pressed me to tell the class whether Id seen the bees myself and what I called them,my views and my whole career path began to change.I realized my background was valuable,and that my calling was to help educate others like me.My parents work ed on a small farm and I often helped out when I was not in school.They had a close relationship with nature,something they learned from my grandparents and passed down to me.This was why I became interested in biology.In college,I joined a series of labs to gain research experience,but my interest in pursuing a career as a scientist began to wane after I realized my research was not helping poor people like my parents As a black student from a rural community,I also felt out of place in most classes.The feeling of not belonging circled in my head.I sometimes thought about giving up.My instructors request that I share my knowledge of the mangangava bee changed my view.She saw that tapping into my personal experiences would help me grasp the scientific concepts.No other professor bad shown that kind of sensitivity,which helped me realize I did have a place in higher education and that I didnt need to hide who I truly am.Im now a masters student in education,working on a project that explores the connect ion between science and traditional knowledge.I dont think Id be here if I hadnt crossed paths with my instructor.We ne ed more educators and scientists like her people who can serve as role models and know that the best way to nurture new scientists is to allow students to be themselves.4.What did the author initially think of his background when in college?A.It was of little use for his college studies.B.It motivated him to carry on his research.C.It gave him an advantage over others.D.It was something he wanted to hide.5.What does the

certain field.7.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The family is one of the natures masterpieces.B.Every man is the architect of his own fortune.C.A good teacher is better than ten thousand books.D.Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.CMost of us spend our lives surrounded by screens,which offer us convenience as well as connection and an ocean of information.But since its easy to feel pressured to keep up with every notification,technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing.Thus,the idea of “digital detox”is becoming increasingly inviting.The phrase“digital detox”describes getting rid of TV,phones,computers and other forms of technology that control our lives for a period of time.Some experts advocate completely avoiding unnecessary screen time for 30 years.Others suggest using an app that will limit the amount of time one can spend on certain websites.A third option is logging out in evenings or on weekends.Others simply turn their phones off at scheduled times.Some even pay high prices to take vacations in places where they can unplug from their digital routine.Why might you want to take a digital detox?Perhaps you find that you are spending longer than you intend on certain apps or that they distract you from more important things.Perhaps social media is depressing because you compare yourself to others or you fear missing out on things that other people are enjoying.Constant negative news can also give rise to a lot of stress.Technology can also have physical effects.Many people experience back or neck pain as a result of bending over screens.The blue light coming from most screens can also affect peoples sleep by preventing production of melatonin(褪黑素).Giving up all screens may not be realistic,but strategic breaks from technology may be good for your body,mind,emotions and relationships.It is high time that you picked a time to turn off your devices and focus on really important things.8.Why does the author say“technology may feel more like a burden than a blessing”in paragraph 1?A.To confirm a concept.B.To explain a rule.C.To present a problem.D.To make a prediction.9.What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?A.Forms of getting rid of “digital detox”.B.Suggestions of practicing “digital detox”.C.Ways of avoiding screen time completely.D.Options of unplugging all digital routine.10.Which could be the reason for one to start “digital detox”?更多全科无水印试卷尽在网盘群，请关注公众号：高中试卷君高三级英语试题 第 4 页(共 7 页)学科网（北京）股份有限公司A.Pressure from social comparison.B.Fear of missing important things.C.Exposure to false news.D.Apps selection difficulty.11.Which section of the website may this article come from?A.Entertainment.B.Technology.C.Health.D.Education.DMany of the psychological benefits of outdoor play arc already well established.Our brains evolved in natural landscapes,and our perceptual(感知的)systems are particularly well suited to wild outdoor spaces.This means that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation,which is thought to help recharge the brain when it is tired and easily distractible.Supporting this theory,one study found that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)were better able to concentrate following a 20-minute walk in the park,compared to a 20-minute walk on the streets of a well-kept urban area.Being exposed to grass and trees seemed to have had a beneficial effect on their minds.The authors recommended using such “doses(剂量)of nature”as a safe and accessible way of supporting children with ADHD,alongside other tools.Besides these restorative effects,outdoor play can offer valuable learning experiences.For example,playing with mud or sand can help children develop the way their senses and movement interact,which allows the child to gradually understand his or her body signals.Such activities away from the house or classroom may also help children to find ways to cope with emotions that may be hard to explore in other environments.So-called“sand tray therapy”which involves using sand and clay to express ones thoughts and feelings,is an accepted form of counselling for children who are struggling to verbalize their emotional state.When it comes to the childs physical health,the most obvious advantage of outdoor play may be the exercise.A child may find it easier to build up strength and endurance in a large open space resulting in a reduced risk of overweight,according to one study led by Elizabeth Gershoff,professor of human development and family sciences at the University of Texas at Austin,US.The latest findings,however,suggest there could be a host of other advantages to playing in natural environments and the secret may be alive in the mud itself.12.Whats the function of the first paragraph?A.To present the evolution of our brains.B.To display the natural landscapes.C.To introduce the perceptual systems.D.To reveal the well-established benefits.13.How does the study show that natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation?A.By comparing the restorative effects of walking in different settings.B.By recommending applying some“doses of nature”to children.C.By allowing children to gradually understand their bodies signals.D.By helping children to find ways to cope with the environment.14.Whom is “sand tray therapy”most beneficial to?更多全科无水印试卷尽在网盘群，请关注公众号：高中试卷君高三级英语试题 第 5 页(共 7 页)学科网（北京）股份有限公司A.Jack,a boy who cant concentrate in the class.B.Mary,a girl who needs to go on a dict.C.Lily,a girl who is lack of endurance.D.Tom,a boy who lives in his own world.15.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Playing in the mud is the best outdoor exercise.B.Playing outdoors brings many unexpected benefits.C.Playing outdoors can cure children with ADHD.D.Playing in the mud reduces the risk of overweight.第二节(共 5小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分)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。Your relationship with your mom is supposed to be one of the most special relationships in
