On April 3, 2025, the day before Tomb-Sweeping Day (清明节), more than 2,300 students and teachers from Guyuan City in Ningxia started their yearly 54-kilometer walk. They did this to remember the soldiers who died in 1949 to free the area. This year is the 30th year of the “walking ideological and political education class” (行走的思政课). It started in 1995 and has influenced over 30,000 students.
The walking trip started before the sun came up. The students carried white flowers they made by hand and sang songs such as Ode to the Motherland (《歌唱祖国》). They walked on muddy mountain roads to Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery (任山河烈士陵园). At the cemetery, they swept the tombstones and read the names of the dead soldiers. One student said, “Touching the cold stones made me realize that our happy life doesn’t come easy and how valuable it is!”
Over the years, this walk has become a model for education across the country. Schools in China now organize trips like this. More than 100 million people watched the live broadcasts (现场直播). They could also “talk” to historical soldiers with new AI technologies. This made their viewing experience even better.
Many earlier students, like spaceship designer Yan Qi, say the walk taught them to be strong and work as a team. Teachers say it helps students understand the cost of peace better than books can.
This 30-year-old tradition shows that education is not just about books. It’s about feeling history with your feet and your heart. When students walk this road, they carry on memory and responsibility.
( )4.How long have the walks lasted so far?
A.25 years. B.30 years. C.49 years. D.54 years.
( )5.What did the students do at the Martyrs’ Cemetery?
A.They sang Ode to the Motherland for soldiers.
B.They had talks to soldiers with AI technology.
C.They cleaned the tombstones of dead soldiers.
D.They carried white flowers made by machines.
( )6.What would the students probably think of the activity?
A.Useless. B.Peaceful. C.Boring. D.Meaningful.
( )7.Which is the best title (标题) for the text?
A.Long hikes to show respect. B.Hard walks to keep healthy.
C.Beautiful songs along the trip. D.Growing up from teamwork.

A 2,000-year-old story is now on Jiangsu’s "Suchao" football field—the famous Chu-Han Contention (楚汉之争) is back!
The Jiangsu Football City League, also called “Su Super League” or “SuChao,” is currently being held. It is an official competition where teams from 13 cities in Jiangsu province play against each other.
One of the most exciting matches is between Suqian and Xuzhou. Many people online refer to it as the “Chu-Han Contention” on the football field.
This name comes from a famous period in Chinese history. After the Qin Dynasty (221–206 BC) ended, Xiang Yu, a powerful military leader, declared(宣称) himself the King of Chu. He gave Liu Bang the title of King of Han. Xiang Yu was from Xiaxiang, which is now Suqian. Liu Bang was from Peixian, which is now Xuzhou. Their battle for control of China, known as the Chu-Han Contention, ended with Liu Bang’s victory. This led to the start of the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC–AD 24).
Today, in the SuChao league, every time these two cities play, the match becomes intense(激烈的) and full of passion(热情). But the rivalry(竞争) doesn’t stop there—it spreads throughout the whole competition. Jiangsu has gone through many historical changes, bringing together cities with different cultures under one province. This has created a strong sense of competition among them.
This spirit is captured in the SuChao motto: “Fight for the glory of your city.” There is also a popular joke among fans: “The game comes first; friendship comes fourteenth.” It’s a joke, but it shows how much they care about their city’s pride.
( )8.Why do people online call the match between Suqian and Xuzhou the "Chu-Han Contention" on the football field?
A. Because both cities have a long history of playing football
B. Because the two teams often win the SuChao league
C. Because Xiang Yu and Liu Bang had the Chu-Han Contention in history
D. Because the match is always held on the same day as the Chu-Han Contention anniversary
( )9. Why do fans joke “The game comes first; friendship comes fourteenth”?
A. To mock the league's rule changes B. To suggest matches are only held on Fridays
C. To criticize the players for lacking sportsmanship
D. To emphasize the intense city pride in the competition
( )10.What has made the cities in Jiangsu have a strong sense of competition in SuChao?
A. Jiangsu has many big football stadiums for matches
B. The SuChao league gives a lot of money to the winning team
C. Jiangsu’s historical changes brought cities with different cultures together
D. The fans of each city don’t like other cities’ teams
( )11.Which of the following statements is right?
A. Liu Bang was historically born in present-day Suqian.
B. The league's motto promotes friendship above competition.
C. The SuChao league matches primarily focus on building friendship between cities.
D. The modern rivalry between Suqian and Xuzhou shows their historical figures' conflict
( )12.Which sentence matches the SuChao motto "Fight for the glory of your city"?
A. Players should care more about their own fame than team wins
B. Fans’ excitement shows they love their city very much
C. The league does not want cities to compete with each other
D. Teams must learn history before playing matches

In most classes, students sit at desks and listen to teachers in a classroom. But in a new class at Chapman Middle School (CMS) in Kansas, US, students are leaving the blackboards behind for blue sky and green grass.
They are actually taking an outdoor life class. It's not a typical(典型的) class, but teachers are trying it out.
“We want kids to experience the outdoors,” the teacher John Harris said.
Twenty-six students took part in the semester-long class. The class includes four parts: archery(射 箭), hunting safety, survival skills and fishing. Students will also discuss how to protect natural resources.
Before Harris' class this year, archery teacher Andy Fewin taught a 9-week outdoor life class. He shares the same idea with Harris. He believes everyone needs“enjoy life” and“get outside”.
“The outdoor life class aims(目的) to get the kids interested in coming to school, really enjoying their class time.” Harris said.
But he said everyone needs to finish their other work first. “It really teaches them to focus and pay attention in class. If they don't, then they' ll miss out on the fun things they' re doing.” he said.
