It celebrates Avogadro's Number, which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Each Mole Day has a specific theme.Pi DayThe grandaddy of mathematical and scientific holidays, however, falls every year on Mar. 14. The date, 3/14, represents the first three numerals in the calculation of pi, so the date is known annually as Pi Day.Pi Day was founded in 1988 by a physicist. The observations spread to the point where on Mar. 12, 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution declaring Mar. 14 as National Pi Day.Fibonacci DayNov. 23 marks Fibonacci Day, a special day that celebrates the man known as Fibonacci who developed a mathematical idea called the Fibonacci Sequence, in which every number is the sum of the previous two numbers. So, for example. 11/23 marks the day because 1+1 equals 2, and then 1+2 equals 3（the date being the 23rd）.Square Root DaySquare Root Day is a holiday that heartily honors those dates where the combination of day and month and year form square roots: e.g. 2/2/04 and 3/3/09. The last Square Root Day was 4/4/16. The holiday was created by a high school teacher Ron Gordon. Square Root Day has its own website where celebrants can gather before the next holiday.1How is Mole Day similar with Pi Day?AThey both have themes.BThey are yearly holidays.CThey fall on the same day.DThey are created by a teacher.2Which holiday is to honor a person?AMole Day.BPi Day.CFibonacci Day.DSquare Root Day.3Which day might be celebrated as Square Root Day?A10/23/22.B11/23/23.C3/12/29.

I felt completely alone in my small town.But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy 1 shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received, I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.After surviving the terrible experiences at school and at home, 1 made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.Kindness saved me when I needed help the most.

He first trained as a sand sculptor. Later, he learnt about ice sculpture. Now he does sand sculpture in the summer. And in the winter, he sculpts ice.When sculpting ice,Wardley has to work in cold temperatures. If the weather is cold enough, he can work outside. But winter in the United Kingdom is not always very cold. So often he works in a large freezer where the temperature is about -12.Wardley enjoys sculpting ice outside in the winter. When he sculpts in the open air, people can watch. They can be part of the creative process.Wardley makes ice sculpting sound simple. But the tools Wardley uses are sharp and dangerous. And the ice is very heavy. Each block of ice weighs 120 kilos. And some larger sculptures are made from several combined blocks of ice. Sometimes ice sculptures can be as big as buildings. In Kemi, Finland there is an ice hotel called the Snow Castle. Each year, Wardley helps build the Snow Castle.Inside the Snow Castle, the temperature is -50. Even the dining tables are made of ice. So you have to wear winter clothes when eating and wear a hat when sleeping. “The ice hotel is built every year in January. Then it melts in April. Each year we rebuild it and create a new design,” Wardley said.The Snow Castle is a large and amazing work of ice, but Wardley's smaller ice sculptures are special too. One winter, in the city of Bradford, the UK,Wardley created several small sculptures. He used the sculptures to tell a story which contained an important message about goodwill and understanding.Ice sculptures are temporary works of art. When the temperature rises, they will melt. But that does not mean that their beauty is lost. The sculptures from that day in Bradford have now melted away, but their message of goodwill, understanding, and acceptance remains.8According to the text, Wardley_.Aloves sand sculpture more than ice sculptureBsculpts ice in a large freezer in the summerCworked as an ice sculptor in the beginningDenjoys carving ice outdoors in the winter9What words can best describe Wardley's sculpting?AEasy and amazing.BSpecial but difficult.CBoring and dangerous.DSimple but temporary.10What do we know about the Snow Castle?AIt lies in the city of Bradford, the UK.BIt is too cold for people to live in.CIt requires to be built every year.DIt is built between January and April.11What does the author think of ice sculptures?AThey never melt in people's hearts.BIt takes time to understand them.CTheir beauty doesn't last forever.DThey add more beauty to Bradford.DWhat makes a person a giver or a taker? The idea of "give vs. take" takes shape in all interactions (互动) and relationships of our lives. We're either giving advice, making time for people, or we're on the receiving end. We keep changing between the two based on different situations on a daily basis, if not an hourly one. According to Adam Grant, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others not receive any rewards. Actually, most matchers will try hard to improve and support givers so that they can get the good they deserve. Is there a gender factor (性别因素) that plays a part in this? A study led by Hannah Riley Bowles, a professor at Harvard University, focused on this question. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down in pairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to discuss salary rise. Male "employees" asked for an average salary of $146 k while the females asked for only $141 k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers. As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge, and my care and attention to others. I expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like I'm being taken for granted(被认为当然). I also tend to get upset when I see a loved one's continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So, it's safe to say I'm 50% giver, 35% matcher and 15% taker. I do know someone, however, who is 99% giver. They're continually devoting their time, sharing valuable insights (见解) and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although they've changed the lives of many people, they hardly see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; they're now extremely successful, well known for what they do.12What can we learn from the first paragraph?AMost people think they are givers.BPeople are not always givers or takers.CAn individual is born to be a giver or a taker.DFew differences exist between givers and takers.13What can we learn from Grants opinion?AMost people hate takers.BMost people prefer giving to taking.CMost people enjoy relying on themselves.DMost people balance giving and taking.14What did Hannah's study focus on?AThe role of giving and taking in jobs.BThe gender difference in giving and taking.CThe role of men and women in society.DThe salary difference between women and men.15Which of the following represents the authors point of view?AGiving is the shortest path to success.BSharing is the greatest human quality.CNo good deed goes undone.DGivers are worth respecting.第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。You know that overnight success usually takes at least 10 years? One man said, “My overnight success was the longest night of my life, I spent many days and nights just getting there.”16 Many people are waiting for their ship to come in-when theyve not even sent it out of the harbor(海港). You see, winners simply do what losers dont want to do. 17 Success is mostly just hanging on after others have let go!

The American President Calvin Coolidge said, “Nothing can bring success like persistence(坚持). Talent cant, for there are many talented people who are not successful. 20 Only persistence and determination can give you the power to succeed.” You see, you can succeed just like anyone else, just keep wanting it enough and to keep working for it enough.
