At just 17, Lauren Schroeder has already made a significant impact on her community. Her voyage began at 14, volunteering at a food shelter. While packing boxes with canned goods for needy families, Lauren detected a substantial shortage: fresh vegetables. This observation sparked an idea that soon grew into a community-wide initiative.
Lauren pictured transforming part of her family's 150-acre farm into a garden committed to growing produce for local families. Her proposal was met with a hint of concern from her mother, Katie Schroeder. While supportive, she also foresaw the extensive labor involved. Despite the agricultural background—her family typically planted soybeans and corn—vegetable cultivation was a novel pursuit. Nevertheless, Lauren was eager to tackle the nutritional deficiency she had uncovered.
The hard work began in earnest. Not discouraged by potential obstacles, Lauren dived into research to be a seasoned vegetable cultivator and secured a grant from the National FFA Organization to cover initial costs. Subsequently, she spent two to three hours daily watering her crops by hand through the hot Iowa summers, sandwiching this commitment between softball practices. Furthermore, she carefully tended to her garden, combating weeds and harvesting crops, with green beans proving particularly challenging.
Eventually, with assistance from her younger brothers and sisters, Lauren's half-acre garden produced 15 varieties of vegetables. In its first year, the garden generated 40 pounds of produce, benefiting food banks, nursing homes, and soup kitchens.
Motivated by the early achievements, Lauren doubled the garden's size. To date, she has donated over 7,000 pounds of produce, valued at approximately $15,000, commanding community respect. Her work has found a deep echo among others, notably a mother from a local shelter who was grateful for the fresh food that reminded her children of home.
Lauren's inspiration is straightforward yet deep-seated. “I wanted tohave something that would impact people," she told KWQC. Her actions demonstrate her belief in the power of community and the joy obtained from helping others —a feeling that will undoubtedly shape her future initiatives.
24. Why did Lauren initiate the community garden
A. To pursue a new hobby. B. To explore plant cultivation.
C. To fill food shelter’s vegetable gap. D. To gain recognition in her community.
25. How did Lauren overcome her lack of experience in vegetable faming
武汉市第一中学2025 届高三年级十二 月 月考英语试题 第 3 页 共 3 页
A. By doing trial and error. B. By conducting thorough research.
C. By engaging in fundraising activities. D. By maintaining consistent hard work.
26. What do we know about Lauren in the initial process of vegetable cultivation
A. She was passionate and determined. B. She was inexperienced but creative.
C. She was observant and popular D. She was concerned but hardworking.
27. What can be a suitable title for thetext
A. Garden to Table: A Solo Effort. B. Local Garden: Hope for the Globe.
C. Farming Fundamentals: A Teen's Journey. D. Harvesting Hope: Community Growth.

When science fiction and the science of time meet, they invite us into a deep exploration of the nature of time. Despite its presence everywhere in daily life, time remains a mystery, with no definitive definition. Our concept of time may be a mental shortcut, a tool for our limited brains to comprehend change.
The English language frequently employs the noun “time”, yet we lack a satisfactory explanation for it. Concerning time, quantum (量子) mechanics and daily experiences often contradict each other, suggesting time’s complexity and ambiguous nature. Our mental conception of time may never correspond with its reality in the universe, but this shouldn’t stop us from exploring it.
Many science fiction quotes touch on time. Ray Cumming’s 1919 novel, The Girl in the Golden Atom, offers a memorable quote, “Time is what keeps everything from happening at once,” implying time’s structural role in the universe. Blake Crouch’s Recursion presents a contrasting view, “Time is a false image, a concept made out of human memory"
Robert Charles Wilson’s Spin explores various forms of time, from personal measurement to cosmic scales emphasizing our challenging relationship with it. S.D.Unwin’s One Second Per Second suggests time as chaos within a cosmic plan, with people and civilizations as its playthings. Robert V.S.Redick’s Vanishing Point describes time as a trick due to our comprehension of time’s flow.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek says, “Time is a companion who reminds us to cherish every moment,” emphasizing its value. David Brin’s Brightmess Reef describes time as a cruel judge, punishing even the succesful and brilliant. Stephen Baxter’s The Time Ships catches time’s frightening nature, darkening human achievements in the vastness of time.
Time travel, a major topic of science fiction, is often discussed. H.G.Wells’1895 novel The Time Machine poses the enduring question of whether moving backward and forward in time is possible. These quotes from science fiction highlight our troubled relationship with time and encourage us to think more deeply about its reality.
28. What is the overall tone of the text
A. Inquiring. B. Pessimistic. C. Persuasive. D. Definitive.
29. What can be learned about time from paragraph 2
A. Quantum physics has no impact on our understanding of time.
B. Time is easy to understand but has a complex nature in science.
C. Daily experiences often go against scientific understandings of time.
D. Time is a common concept in daily life well corresponding with scientific reality. 30. What does Stephen Baxter’s The Time Ships emphasize
A. A false belief due to our comprehension of time’s flow.
B. Time as a companion who reminds us to cherish every moment.
C. The possibility to move backward and forward in time at will.
D. The insignificance of human successes in the long history of time.
31. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The relationship between time and daily life.
武汉市第一中学2025 届高三年级十二 月 月考英语试题 第 4 页 共 4 页
B. The definition of time in scientific terms and time travel. C. The history of time and famous quotes in science fiction. D. The science of time and its exploration in science fiction.
D
Imagine journeying down the highway when you notice your fuel tank running low. Your GPS indicates 10 gas stations. Naturally, you want the cheapest option. You pass the first handful and observe their prices before approaching one with a seemingly good deal. Do you stop, without knowing how sweet the bargains could get up the road Or do you continue exploring and risk regret for rejecting the bird in hand How do you decide when to explore further and when to decide on a choice
As a fascinating recent Big Think article explains in detail, no matter what choice you’re making, mathematicians claim the 37 percent rule applies. Spend the first 37 percent of your decision-making process gathering information and committing to nothing. After that, choose the next option that comes along that’s better than everything you’ve seen before. This rule gives you the highest probability of making the superior choice.
Applying this precise rule will simplify messy reality. If you’ve given yourself a month to hunt for a most comfortable apartment, the 37 percent rule suggests you spend the first third or so of that surveying the market and making no decisions. If you’re hiring an assistant and plan to interview 10 candidates, let the first three go by. Then choose the next person who beats that first bunch.
What if an absolutely brilliant candidate just happens to be the first one you come across Following this rule might end up complaining and wondering, “What if ” It is true that matters of the heart aren't logical and this rule only maximizes probabilities. It doesn’t guarantee success. So if lightning strikes or the angels sing and you’re absolutely sure you’ve found the perfect match for you, don’t let inflexible rules stand in the way.
But even if it’s unwise to blindly follow the 37 percent rule in every instance, that doesn’t make it unhelpful. Spending roughly the first third of your decision-making process gathering information can help you resist fear of missing out. Knowing that you should secure the first candidate who beats the options you previously explored can help you gather the courage to make decisions.
32. What does the underlined phrase 66the bird in hand" in paragraph 1 refer to
A. A sweeter bargain ahead. B. The first GPS recommendation.
C. The previous cheaper gas station. D. A more suitable route on the journey 33. Which of the following is an example of the 37 percent rule
A. Choosing the lst from 100. B. Choosing the 36th from 100.
C. Choosing the 37th from 100. D. Choosing the 38th from 100
34. What is the writing purpose of paragraph 4
A. To offer a reminder. B. To give an example.
C. To prove a conclusion. D. To make an assumption.
35. How does the 37 percent rule benefit us
A. It boosts our self-confidence. B. It enhances our ability to analyze data.
C. It strengthens our links with the society. D. It improves our decision-making efficiency.

Have you ever had a goal that no matter how hard you worked, or how many hours you dedicated, it just didn’t seem to make any progress Despite all your best effort, it felt like you were running on a treadmill — working hard but not going anywhere. 36
Set yourself a re-evaluation date. Sometimes, the fruits of your labor can be like an iceberg. Only a small part is visible above the water. 37 Self-doubt and anxiety about whether you’re making any
武汉市第一中学2025 届高三年级十二 月 月考英语试题 第 5 页 共 5 页
progress can sabotage your goals even if you’re in fact making significant progress just below the surface. If you think your goal might take some time to manifest change, try setting a “re-evaluation date” before you quit and give up on yourself too early. For a “re-evaluation date”, simply pick a day on the calendar that makes sense for the size and scope of your particular goal. Then refuse to rethink, reassess, or self-doubt your decisions until that day.
38 There’s nothing more demoralizing and frustrating than feeling like you’re constantly messing up or self-sabotaging your own goal. Instead of seeing setbacks and failures as negative things, reframe them in your mind as learning experiences — and those experiences can be some of the best teachers!
Also focus on enjoying the doing. It’s easy to get caught up worrying about how much progress you’re making and forget to enjoy the actual journey. 39 If you constantly feel negative while working towards your goal, you’ll quickly come to resent it and will be more likely to quit.
So if you’re feeling frustrated about a goal, remember that there just might be a lot of things happening under the surface you’re not aware of. And remember, results aren’t everything. Learning, growing, enjoying yourself along the way... 40
A． You will eventually see results.
B． But below, a huge iceberg is forming.
C． Those are the things that really matter.
D． Celebrate your failures as much as your successes.
E． Reframe all your setbacks and failures as learning experiences.
F． If so, there are a few key things that can help you stay on track.
G． If you can find joy working towards your goals, then you will have won half the battle.

I had reached the age of twenty-eight. Still, I 41 whether the letter from my past would make it to me, all these years later. It was a 42 writing task from when I was eighteen. The teacher collected our letters to our future selves in self-addressed envelope with stamps and promised to 43 them ten years later. But since so much time had passed, would he even 44
Thinking back on the letter, I recalled giving my future self some advice. When you’ re eighteen years old, twenty-eight seems like a 45 age, but I wasn’t feeling as mature as I believed my younger self had 46 me to be.
When the letter finally reached me, I opened it 47 . It began, “How much do you bet this letter will never get to you ” It continued to greet me casually 48 we were having an IM (instant messaging) chat. As a senior in high school, facing the 49 SATS and college application, my eighteen-year-old self was so 50 ! She was apparently not quite happy and hoped I wouldn’t worry so much in the future, and that I wouldn’t forget to be present and 51 my life!
Contrary to my belief, my eighteen-year-old self did not have any demands of me, or expectations I might have 52 to meet. Instead, she wrote, “I’ll stand by whatever you do. Even if you are not the one I’m imagining now, I’ll support you, because maybe the person I’m imagining is someone else, but you’ re not someone else, you’ re me.”
I was 53 , and tears welled up in my eyes at this— 54 through time. I had put a lot of pressure on myself to be the best version of myself that I could be. 55 , I came to realize what I would have accomplished in ten years would pale in comparison to how I’d feel and who I’d be.

People always say that with exercise, putting on your shoes is the hardest part. But for Emma, this was a lie. The real pain always started when all the students were gathered on the track, ready to run. It wasn’t the fatigue she minded, it was the looks others gave her. Emma was bigger than others her age. Back in primary school, she remembers her classmates asking her why her thighs (大腿) were so big and her chest so wide. On the outside, she looked big, but on the inside, she felt as small as a pea. And PE class was when she felt at her smallest.
Not all her classmates made her feel uncomfortable, though. It was mainly a group of girls and boys – the

loud, frank, popular kids. Although they could run faster than Emma, they preferred to jog a bit behind her, bursting out in laughter every now and then, commenting on how Emma jogged.
Just one more year, Emma kept telling herself. One more year and I’ll have graduated and won’t have to take this stupid PE class anymore. She just wanted to survive it.
But everything changed when a new girl called Kit joined the class. You couldn’t mistake Kit. She had short, jet-black hair, bright eyes, and a long scar across the left side of her face. Her entrance into the classroom that day was met by dozens of curious eyes.
Although their teacher, Ms Hardy, didn’t ask Kit for a personal introduction, upon putting her bag down on her desk, Kit rose, saying, “Hi, everyone, nice to meet you. I’m Kit. I love boxing, animation and fashion. You might be wondering about the scar on my face. I got it when I was young when I fell off my bike. Luckily, I didn’t get hurt more seriously. It’s now like a cool trademark of all the adventures I had as a kid.”
After Kit’s introduction, Emma simply sat there, her heart pounding and mouth wide open. How could someone who looked so different from the others be so confident Even the popular kids were sitting there in shock.

Last week witnessed a series of English Week activities themed 'Embrace English, Show ourselves,' among which the English speech contest left the most profound impression on me.
There were a wide range of speeches. Some contestants narrated their personal journeys of mastering the language, some focused on global concerns, and others conveyed positive energy through vivid stories, each showcasing their distinctive style and exceptional language proficiency. This memorable event serves as a reminder that learning English goes beyond the restriction of examination preparation; it is a passport to broader horizons, a boost to self-confidence, and a platform for authentic self-expression.
Together, let us embrace English, adopting it as a password to unlock the doors to endless possibilities and pave the way for a more prosperous future! (125 words)

Para 1: Over lunchtime, Emma was sitting at her usual table with her classmates when Kit walked over to them. She cheerfully asked to join them and sat beside Emma. Throughout lunch, there were glances and whispers about Kit's scar, but Kit didn't seem bothered and continued to chat normally. Emma was struck by Kit's indifference to the attention her scar drew. Sensing her curiosity, Kit openly discussed how she had come to accept her scar and the importance of resilience in the face of external judgments. Her story deeply touched Emma, inspiring her to embrace her true self.
Para 2: On Friday, it was time for the feared PE, class.but this time, Kit was with her. “Ready to jog ” the teacher announced. Despite some stares from the popular kids, Emma felt encouraged by Kit.They ran together, and when laughter came from behind, Kit shouted, “Ignore them!" This helped Emma focus on running, not the jeers(嘲笑). At the finish, Emma, although physically tired, had gained newfound strength, discovering that true confidence comes from within, not from others’ words. Walking back under the sun, both girls felt proud－one with a scar and the other comfortable in her own body.

M: What kind of dance are you learning
W: We’re learning a few different types of dance.So far, we have learned ballet, modern, and tap.Of all the types, tap dance is my favorite.Ballet is pretty hard.
M: Sounds like a lot of fun.My sister Shelley is thinking of joining you in your class, but l fear it’s already full.Besides, she fears she may be too old to learn dance lessons.She’s fifteen, though.
W: No, our class isn’t full.You can schedule a time for her to come to one of our classes.The first visit is free.We have our lessons every Monday evening at 7 pm.
M: OK.I’ll ask her to go next Monday.Please help her a bit.She’s a terrible dancer.
W: Me too.That’s why I’m taking lessons.

M: I’m an Australian teaching English at a public school in China.Sometimes my colleague George from America and I feel like we should get involved in students’ lives outside their class at school.I decided to challenge that.
Once a week, I’ve been volunteering for the school’s football club.Everyone gets something out of this: I get to learn football, the students get to practice their English and interact with a foreigner outside of the classroom, and intercultural connections are made.It only takes an hour and a half out of my week, but I can see a difference in the students when I enter the classroom.They’re genuinely happy to have me there, they’re more interested in what happens in the rest of the world, and they’re making lifelong memories with me.Seeing this change has also helped me enjoy my job more and inspires me to be even better at what I do.
