China showed its power at the ISU Short Track Speed Skating (短道速滑) World Cup in Montreal, Canada, which took place from October 20 to 22.
China won its first gold medal of the season in the mixed 2,000 meters relay (接力赛) on October 21, with the great performance of Gong Li, Zang Yize, LiuShaolin and Liu Shaoang. Liu Shaoang also won the men’s 500m final (决赛) on October 22.
If you watch the competition, you will be amazed by the rocket-like start of the skaters. It needs the skaters to use great explosive power (爆发力).
Short track speed skating is all about speed. As they race around the track, top skaters can reach a speed of 50 km an hour. They shift (转移) their weight between their legs and reach out their hands to keep up speed. Skaters are allowed to overtake (超过) others at any point during the race, but corner overtaking is the best way.
Short track speed skating came about in Canada in the 1880s, but has grown popular in Asia since the 1990s. According to Xinhua, China, South Korea and Canada are the top performers at the World
Short Track Speed Skating Championships.
Team China is getting ready for the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics. “The new season at ISU is a chance to train both new and experienced players for the coming games” Zhang Jing, the coach of the national team, told Xinhua.
5. What does the underlined word “It” refer to?
A. The score. B. Racing around the track. C. The rocket-like start. D. Watching the competition.
6. Which picture can best describe the way of keeping up speed when skating?
A. B. C. D.
7. Short track speed skating has been popular in Asia for about ________.
A. 20 years B. 30 years C. 40 years D. 140 years

From the moon to Mars, scientists have been looking for water—the key to life—in the solar system for decades. Recently, they have turned to Jupiter (木星)!
On April 14, the European Space Agency’s (ESA) JUICE spacecraft successfully lifted off from French Guiana in South America. JUICE, short for “Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer”, will collect data from Jupiter and its three moons, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto.
The three moons are believed to have big oceans of liquid water (液态水) under their icy shells (壳). According to ESA, the water on these moons could be six times as much as the amount in Earth’s oceans. The mission (任务) “will change our understanding of the solar system”, wrote Scientific American.
In 1998, NASA’s Galileo spacecraft found that Europa might be ejecting (喷射) water as far as 160 kilometers into space. That gave scientists the idea of studying the icy moons of Jupiter.
The oceans under these moons are likely to be tens of kilometers deep. But they are also trapped under tens of kilometers of ice, making it very difficult to study them. Although JUICE cannot land on the surface, it has lots of high-tech equipment to study the moon’s environment, including spectral imaging (光谱成像) tools and radar (雷达). “They could give more data on things like the thickness of the oceans, their salt content (含量), and their distance from the icy shells above,” reported Phys.org.
“The main goal is to understand whether there are habitable (适合居住的) environments among those icy moons and around a giant planet like Jupiter,” JUICE team member Olivier Witasse said during a press conference (发布会) on April 6.
9. JUICE has been sent to look for ______ on Jupiter.
A. air B. sand C. gold D. water
10. Paragraph 4 mainly wants to tell us ______.
A. how far water can be ejected B. why scientists wanted to study Jupiter
C. what NASA’s Galileo spacecraft found D. which spacecraft was used to explore the universe
11. The underlined word “trapped” in Paragraph 5 has the closest meaning to “ ______”.
A. locked B. created C. collected D. taken
12. The purpose of the task is to find out if ______.
A. there are living things out there B. life can live on some of Jupiter’s moons
C. there are lakes in the universe D. we can move water from Earth to the moons of Jupiter
The hot pot has a long history of about 2,000 years. The hot pot used to be preferred in winter, but recently it has been appearing on tables all year round.
Apart from (除了……外) its delicious taste, there are two other important reasons for the Chinese to like the hot pot. The first one is that the hot pot is considered a great way to make new friends. People gather around the pot, chatting, eating, drinking and having fun. The other is that the hot pot is a healthy meal. Eating the hot pot can warm the body and improve circulation (血液循环) in winter, and increase perspiration (出汗) to help cool the body in summer.
There are several kinds of hot pots in China with different soup. Two of the most popular hot pots are Sichuan hot pot and Beijing mutton hot pot.
Sichuan hot pot is famous for its numbing and spicy (又麻又辣的) taste, due to the addition of a special food material—Sichuan pepper—and other spicy things like chilli, which makes it different from other hot pots. Beijing mutton hot pot is regarded as the typical northern China hot pot.Mutton is its main part, and the soup is made from lamb bones.
When you eat a hot pot in a restaurant, generally, there are two kinds of soup bases: spicy and clear. A clear soup base has quite a mild (温和的) taste, which is made from seafood or meat bones. A spicy soup base usually has Sichuan pepper, which is spicy and salty.
If you have a mixed group with some who don’t eat spicy food, there is a special pot with a divider in the middle between the spicy and clear soup, which is called a double-flavor hot pot (鸳鸯锅).
13. The hot pot is popular because ________.
①it tastes delicious ②it is cheap and easy to make ③it is a way to make friends ④it is a healthy meal
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④
14. Paragraph 4 mainly talks about ________.
A. the typical northern China hot pots B. the introduction of two hot pots

15. In Paragraph 6, the writer advises the mixed group to ________.
A. give up eating any hot pot B. choose a clear soup base
C enjoy Beijing mutton hot pot D. try a double-flavor hot pot
16. Match the different kinds of the hot pots with the characters (特点) according to the passage.

“Class, this is John Evans,” Mrs. Parmele introduced him to us, trying to give him a warm welcome. We saw a boy in old clothes. John looked around and smiled, hoping somebody would smile back. Nobody did. He kept on smiling anyway. I held my breath as Mrs. Parmele looked around the classroom, hoping she wouldn’t notice the empty desk next to mine. She did, and pointed him at that desk. He looked over at me as he sat down, but I looked away.
By the end of his first week, John was at the bottom of our class. I told my mother one evening at dinner, “He even doesn’t know how to count.” However, as I ate lunch with him the next day and listened to him, I realized that it was pleasant to be with him. After lunch, I decided that I would be John’s friend.
One night, as Mother came into my bedroom, I said, “Mom, tomorrow is John’s birthday, and he’s not going to get anything. Nobody cares.” “Don’t worry,” Mom said as she kissed me goodnight. “I'm sure everything will be fine.”
I wished John a happy birthday in the morning, and his smile showed me that he was glad I had remembered. By mid-afternoon I had almost decided that birthdays weren’t that important. Then, as Mrs. Parmele was writing on the blackboard, I heard a familiar(熟悉的) voice singing the birthday song. I looked up and saw Mother coming through the door with a tray(托盘) of cupcakes and a present in her hand. Mrs. Parmele also joined in. They put the cupcakes and the gift on John’s desk and said, “Happy birthday, John.” John stood there with his mouth open, unable to believe what was happening. While John happily shared his cupcakes with the class, taking the tray from desk to desk, I caught Mother watching me and she smiled.
John Evans moved away soon, and I never heard from him again. But I always remember the happiness in the boy’s eyes, and the taste of the sweetest cupcake.
41. Why did the writer hold his breath as Mrs. Parmele looked around?
_____________________________________________
42. What did the writer want to do after the lunch the next day?

“Class this is John Evans,” Mrs. Parmele introduced him to us, trying to give him a warm welcome. We saw a boy in old clothes. John looked around and smiled, hoping somebody would smile back. Nobody did. He kept on smiling anyway. I held my breath as Mrs. Parmele looked around the classroom, hoping she wouldn’t notice the empty desk next to mine. She did, and pointed him at that desk. He looked over at me as he sat down, but I looked away.
By the end of his first week, John was at the bottom of our class. I told my mother one evening at dinner, “He even doesn’t know how to count.” However, as I ate lunch with him the next day and listened to him, I realized that it was pleasant to be with him. After lunch, I decided that I would be John’s friend.
One night, as Mother came into my bedroom, I said, “Mom, tomorrow is John’s birthday, and he’s not going to get anything. Nobody cares.” “Don’t worry,” Mom said as she kissed me goodnight. “I'm sure everything will be fine.”
I wished John a happy birthday in the morning, and his smile showed me that he was glad I had remembered. By mid-afternoon I had almost decided that birthdays weren’t that important. Then, as Mrs. Parmele was writing on the blackboard, I heard a familiar(熟悉的) voice singing the birthday song. I looked up and saw Mother coming through the door with a tray(托盘) of cupcakes and a present in her hand. Mrs. Parmele also joined in. They put the cupcakes and the gift on John’s desk and said, “Happy birthday, John.” John stood there with his mouth open, unable to believe what was happening. While John happily shared his cupcakes with the class, taking the tray from desk to desk, I caught Mother watching me and she smiled.
John Evans moved away soon, and I never heard from him again. But I always remember the happiness in the boy’s eyes, and the taste of the sweetest cupcake.

【解析】
