阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Math holidays everyone should know
In recent years mathematicians and scientists have begun campaigns to mark certain dates in
celebration of significant principles and here are a few to add to your calendar.
Mole Day
Mole Day is celebrated yearly on Oct. 23 from 6: 02 a.m to 6: 02 p.m.. The idea of a
celebratory day was put forward by a chemistry teacher in 1991 and has been honored every year
since. It celebrates Avogadro's Number, which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Each Mole
Day has a specific theme.
Pi Day
The 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 Day
Nov. 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 Day
Square 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.
21．How is Mole Day similar with Pi Day?
A．They both have themes. B．They are yearly holidays.
C．They fall on the same day. D．They are created by a teacher.
22．Which holiday is to honor a person?
A．Mole Day. B．Pi Day. C．Fibonacci Day. D．Square Root Day.
23．Which day might be celebrated as Square Root Day?
A．10/23/22. B．11/23/23. C．3/12/29. D．5/5/25.

When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that
night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to
learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as
第 3 页 共 9 页
菏泽外国语学校高三年级英语试题 出题人：赵鑫
laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.
Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and
crying seems to study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better
after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry,
people around us become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and
comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we'
re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through Crying, and then we can deal with
them.
Just as crying can be healthy, not crying — holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering —
can be bad for physical (身体的) health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can
lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem,
doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural —
and healthy — emotional response (反应).
24. Why didn't the author cry when her grandmother died?
A. Because her father did not want her to feel too sad.
B. Because she did not love her grandmother.
C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time.
D. The author doesn’t give the explanation.
25. It can be inferred from the text that .
A. There are two ways to keep healthy.
B. Crying does more good to health than laughing.
C. Emotional health has close connection with physical health.
D. Crying and laughing play the same roles.
26.According to the author, which of the following statements is true?
A. Crying is the best way to get help from others.
B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.
C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.
D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.
27. What might be the most suitable title for the text?
A. Power of Tears B. How to Keep Healthy
C. Why We Cry D. A New Scientific Discovery
C
An infectious disease is a disease that is caused by the invasion of a host by pathogens（病原
体）whose activities harm the host’s tissues and can be spread to other individuals.
Microorganisms（微生物）capable of causing disease are called pathogens. A true pathogen
is an infectious agent that causes disease in any possible host. The terms “infection” and “disease”
are quite different. In order to cause disease, pathogens must be able to enter the host body, stick to
specific host cells, invade and multiply and do damage to host tissues.
Pathogens may be spread through either direct or indirect contact. Direct contact occurs when
an individual is infected by contact with the infection source. It also includes taking in the infectious
droplets released by sneezing or coughing. Indirect contact occurs when a pathogen can survive the
environment outside its host for a long period of time. So lifeless objects that are polluted by direct
contact with the infection source may be the indirect contact for easily infected group.

Public health measures typically involve killing the pathogen from its source or from its route
of spread. Those measures include ensuring a safe water supply, effectively treating waste water,
and initiating animal control and vaccination（疫苗）programs, etc. Personally, the first line of
defense is to keep pathogen at bay by following good personal hygiene（卫生）habits. Prevent
infection before it begins and avoid spreading it to others with some easy measures, such as washing
hands, getting vaccinated and so on.
Man never stops fighting against all kinds of infectious diseases. But in the past two decades at
least a dozen “new” disease have been identified, and traditional diseases that appeared to be “on
their way out” are re-emerging. Globally, infectious diseases remain the leading cause of death.
Clearly, the ballet has not been won. Nevertheless, it is increasingly difficult for most of us to deny
the claims of science. We are continually presented with great amounts of relevant scientific and
medical knowledge, which encourages us to take more responsibility for our own health.
28．What’s the main idea of paragraph2?
A. Origin of true pathogens.
B. Strategies for avoiding tissue damage.
C. Nature of infectious diseases.
D. Differences between infection and disease.
29．What is likely to cause disease spread through indirect contact?
A．Breathing in tiny drops from coughing
B．Embracing an infected person.
C．Getting bitten by an infected cat.
D．Using umbrella a sick man used.
30．What does the underlined phrase “at bay” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．At risk. C．Under control.
B．Stay away. D．Within reach.
31．What can we infer about the last paragraph?
A．Science plays an important in defeating infectious diseases.
B．Man is at a loss about infectious diseases.
C．Traditional infectious diseases are dying out.
D．The battle against infectious diseases is in vain.

Think about all those successful people in your life that you know. How many of them build
their success overnight? How many of them didn’t care about their goals? How many of them
gave up after the first failure?
Most of the people we know to be successful were very persistent and devoted to their
dreams. In other words, they work hard towards their dreams and keep trying, even if their goals
aren’t easy to achieve. They didn’t give up just because they faced barriers and problems. They
might even get encouraged by them.
Persistence really matters. It can help build your character. Nothing builds your character
more than overcoming failures and problems in life. You get tougher and can handle anything life
might throw at you. Each time you win your urge to give up, you make your mind and personality
a bit stronger. Each of those wins will build your character to be healthier and to handle more
stress.

When you are committed to something, you are willing to learn what it takes to be successful.
You will be required to learn new skills and solve new kinds of problems. When you are persistent
about your goals, you will have to learn new ways of doing things. Sometimes you might notice
that to solve a particular problem, you need to learn more about it. When you study more about the
topic, you discover new exciting subtopics to know about. As you think more in-depth into that
problem, you will be exposed to new ideas and thoughts. Persistence is the driver behind your
ability to learn what you need to know.
When you keep building your persistence and willpower, you will face many failures. Things
don’t always end up as you have planned. With persistence, you will learn how to solve those
problems and get back up after a failure. You will learn that failure is not the end of the world.
Life goes on, and so can you. Each time you decide to overcome your failure, you will learn
something new, and you will be a bit stronger than before. Those changes won’t show daily, but
slowly they will start to stack up. If you look back and analyze your process, you will discover
that you handle the stressful situation more efficiently, and after failures, you won’t go into
despair. You rather know how to handle each failure as you have accumulated experiences from
them and handle challenging situations.
Persistence is a basic quality to develop in life because it is closely related to personal
development and improvement. As you already know, it is not easy, but it is worthy of your effort.
32．The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 2 refers to________.
A．dreams B．successful men C．most of the people D．barriers and problems
33．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A．Persistence builds your character.
B．Persistence teaches you how to manage failures.
C．Persistence improves your skills and abilities.
D．Persistence helps you handle a stressful situation.
34．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．People with persistence seldom suffer from failures.
B．Learning new skills will make you more persistent.
C．Persistent people are easier to get out of a bad mood.
D．Successful people usually have stronger personalities.
35．The author writes the passage to__________.
A．explain the importance of being persistent
B．analyze the character of successful people
C．offer some suggestions about being persistent
D．show how to deal with problems and face failures
