(西藏拉萨市二中2022届高三上学期第一次月考)The teacher who did the most to encourage me was, as it happened, my aunt. She was Myrtle C.Manigault, the wife of my mother’s brother Bill. She taught in second grade at all-black Summer School in Camden, New Jersey.

During my childhood and youth, Aunt Myrtle encouraged me to develop every aspect of my potential, without regard for what was considered practical or possible for black females. I liked to sing; she listened to my voice and pronounced it good. I couldn’t dance; she taught me the basic dancing steps. She took me to the theatre—not just children’s theatre but adult comedies and dramas—and her faith that I could appreciate adult plays was not disappointed.

My aunt also took down books from her extensive library and shared them with me. I had books at home, but they were all serious classics. Even as a child I had a strong liking for humor, and I’ll never forget the joy of discovering Don Marquis’s Archy&Mehitabel through her.

Most important, perhaps, Aunt Myrtle provided my first opportunity to write for publication. A writer herself for one of the black newspapers, she suggested my name to the editor as a “youth columnist”. My column, began when I was fourteen, was supposed to cover teenage social activities—and it did—but it also gave me the freedom to write on many other subjects as well as the habit of gathering material, the discipline of meeting deadlines, and, after graduation from college six years later, a solid collection of published material that carried my name and was my passport to a series of writing jobs.

Today Aunt Myrtle is still an enthusiastic of the “favourite niece”. Like a diamond, she has reflected a bright, multifaceted(多面的) image of possibilities to every pupil who has crossed her path.

4.Which of the following did Aunt Myrtle do to the author during her childhood and youth?

A.She lent her some serious classics.

B.She introduced her to adult plays.

C.She discovered her talent for dancing.

D.She cultivated her taste for music.

5.What does “Archy&Mehitable” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?

A.A serious masterpiece.

B.A writer of high fame.

C.A book of great fun.

D.A heartbreaking play.

6.Aunt Myrtle recommended the author to a newspaper editor mainly to 　　　　. 

A.develop her capabilities for writing

B.give her a chance to collect material

A.trained pupils to be diligent and well-disciplined

B.helped pupils overcome difficulties in learning

C.emphasized what was practical or possible for pupils

D.gave pupils confidence in exploiting their potential

(2022届吉林省长春市东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期第一次摸底考试)How do you turn “dumb” headphones into smart ones? Rutgers engineers have invented a cheap and easy way by transforming headphones into sensors that can be plugged into(插入) smartphones, identify their users, monitor their heart rates and perform other services.

Their invention, called HeadFi, is based on a small plug-in headphone adapter that turns a regular headphone into a sensing device(装置). Unlike smart headphones, regular headphones lack sensors. HeadFi would allow users to avoid having to buy a new pair of smart headphones with sensors to enjoy sensing features.

“HeadFi could turn hundreds of millions of existing, regular headphones worldwide into intelligent ones with a simple upgrade,” said Xiaoran Fan, a HeadFi primary inventor.

A Rutgers-led paper on the invention, which results in “earable intelligence”, was formally published in October at MobiCom 2021, the top international conference on mobile computing and mobile and wireless networking.

Headphones are among the most popular wearable devices worldwide and they continue to become; more intelligent as new functions appear, such as touch-based gesture control, the paper notes. Such functions usually rely on aiding sensors, such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and microphones that are available on many smart headphones.

HeadFi turns the two drivers already inside all headphones into a versatile(多功能的) sensor, and it works by connecting headphones to a pairing device, such as a smartphone. It doesn’t require adding aiding sensors and avoids changes to headphone hardware or the need to customize headphones, both of which may increase their weight and size. By plugging into HeadFi, a converted headphone can perform sensing tasks and play music at the same time.

The engineers conducted experiments with 53 volunteers using 54 pairs of headphones with prices ranging from $2.99 to $15,000. HeadFi can achieve 97.2 percent to 99.5 percent accuracy on user identification , 96.8 percent to 99.2 percent on heart rate monitoring and 97.7 percent to 99.3 percent on gesture recognition.

8.What does Xiaoran Fan think of HeadFi?

A.Secure to operate.

B.Simple to use.

C.Easy to substitute.

D.Convenient to store.

9.What can we know about HeadFi according to the text?

A.It can’t work with headphones alone.

B.It actually functions as a versatile sensor.

C.It makes headphones larger and heavier than usual.

D.It doesn’t work when headphones are playing music.

10.The figures are listed in the last paragraph mainly to show 　　　　. 

A.the various functions of HeadFi

B.the wide popularity of headphones

C.the great complexity of headphones

D.the excellent performance of HeadFi

11.What can be the best title for the text?

A.How to Use Headphones Appropriately

B.Headphones Can Be Upgraded Instantly

C.How to Make Regular Headphones Intelligent

D.New Uses Have Been Found in Headphones

　　【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。一项新的系统能够让普通的耳机具备使用者识别、心率监测和手势识别等功能。这项实验性技术被称为 HeadFi,是由新泽西州罗格斯大学领导的团队研发的。

8.B　推理判断题。根据文章第三段可知，通过HeadFi技术，普通耳机只需一次简单的升级，就可以变成智能耳机。由此可以推断，HeadFi使用起来很简单。故选B项。

9.A　细节理解题。根据文章第六段第一句可知，HeadFi它不能单独使用耳机。故选A项。

10.D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段内容可知，在对53名志愿者使用54副耳机进行的测试中，HeadFi系统对使用者识别的准确率为97.2%至99.5%,在心率监测方面的准确率为96.8%至99.2%,在手势识别方面的准确率为97.7%至99.3%。由此可以推断，文章最后一段中列举那些数字是为了说明HeadFi的性能优异。故选D项。

11.C　标题推测题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍一项名为 HeadFi的发明是如何将只具备音乐放大和语音控制功能的“笨拙”耳机变成具备使用者识别、心率监测和手势识别等功能的智能耳机的。故选C项。

Ⅱ.七选五阅读

(2022·茂名市高三级第二次综合测试)Exams are an important type of assessment almost all students will need to undertake. The best way to study is not to recite it all in hours or minutes before an exam. Exam stress affects most students in various ways. 　1　 

How do you face such an important day? If you have not been able to study the complete content still now, don’t long to finish it all. 　2　 In your bag, collect all your supplies such as pencils, several pens and other important writing materials. Put the bag and everything else that you might need in one place. This will help to reduce your worries in the morning. 

When you arrive at the hall, surround yourself with friends who are supportive or just go through your notes quietly. Always make it a point to study the subjects which you find easier to learn first. 　3　 Therefore, do not go round asking crazily for the answer. This will just upset you and send you into panic mode. 

　4　 Before the examination starts, make sure your question paper is complete. Read the instructions carefully. Settle the easy questions first. Divide your time carefully for each question and move on to the next question even if you have not finished the first.
