When the aerial formation flew over Tian’anmen Square, a woman named Ruan Guoqin lifted a photo of her husband, Wang Wei, toward the sky. Wang Wei was a PLA Navy pilot. In 2001, he died while protecting China’s airspace. His greatest wish was to take off from an aircraft carrier in a fighter jet. Now his comrades-in-arms have made his dream come true. Ruan said to the photo, “Wang Wei, today I bring you to the China’s V-Day military parade. Do you see it? You are with your comrades again!” Yao Jiusui was also at the parade. She is the mother of Chen Xiangrong, another hero. Chen was born in 2001. He joined the army in 2019. In 2020, he died during a border clash. Yao said, “I’m proud to be here watching the parade for you, my boy.” Heroes never go away. Their love for our country and the people will always guide us forward. 2025年9月3日，抗战胜利日阅兵式隆重举行。当空中梯队飞过天安门广场时，一位名叫阮国琴的女士将丈夫王伟的照片高高举向天空。 王伟生前是中国人民解放军海军航空兵飞行员。2001年，他在保卫祖国领空的任务中壮烈牺牲。他生前最大的愿望，是能够驾驶战机从航空母舰上起飞。如今，他的战友们替他实现了这个梦想。阮国琴对着照片轻声说道：“王伟，今天我把你带到阅兵式现场了，你看到了吗？你和战友们又在一起了！” 姚久穗也来到了阅兵现场。她是另一位英雄陈祥榕的母亲。陈祥榕生于2001年，2019年入伍，2020年在边境冲突中英勇牺牲。姚久穗说：“儿子，能替你来到这里看阅兵，妈妈为你骄傲。” 英雄从未远去。他们对祖国和人民深沉的爱，将永远指引我们前行。 【长难句分析】 1. 原句：When the aerial formation flew over Tian'anmen Square, a woman named Ruan Guoqin lifted a photo of her husband, Wang Wei, toward the sky. 句意：当空中梯队飞过天安门广场时，一位名叫阮国琴的女士将丈夫王伟的照片高高举向天空。 分析：本句是主从复合句。连词“When”引导时间状语从句“the aerial formation flew over Tian'anmen Square”。主句是“a woman...toward the sky”，其中“named Ruan Guoqin”是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰“a woman”；“of her husband, Wang Wei”是介词短语作后置定语，修饰“a photo”；“Wang Wei”是“her husband”的同位语；“toward the sky”是介词短语作状语，修饰谓语“lifted”。 2. 原句：She is the mother of Chen Xiangrong, another hero, who was born in 2001, joined the army in 2019, and died during a border clash in 2020. 句意：她是另一位英雄陈祥榕的母亲。陈祥榕生于2001年，2019年入伍，2020年在边境冲突中英勇牺牲。 分析：本句是主从复合句。主句是“She is the mother of Chen Xiangrong”。“another hero”是“Chen Xiangrong”的同位语。关系代词“who”引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词“Chen Xiangrong”。定语从句中包含三个并列的谓语动词：“was born”、“joined”和“died”，描述了陈祥榕的生平事迹。 【重难词汇梳理】 ① V-Day n. 胜利日 ② military parade n. 阅兵式 ③ aerial formation n. 空中梯队 ④ Tian'anmen Square n. 天安门广场 ⑤ lifted v. 举起 (lift的过去式) ⑥ photo n. 照片 ⑦ PLA Navy n. 中国人民解放军海军 ⑧ pilot n. 飞行员 ⑨ died v. 牺牲 (die的过去式) ⑩ protecting v. 保卫 (protect的动名词/现在分词) ⑪ airspace n. 领空 ⑫ aircraft carrier n. 航空母舰 ⑬ fighter jet n. 战斗机 ⑭ comrades-in-arms n. 战友 ⑮ dream come true phr. 梦想成真 ⑯ border clash n. 边境冲突 ⑰ proud adj. 骄傲的 ⑱ heroes n. 英雄 (hero的复数) ⑲ fade v. 消失；褪去 ⑳ guide v. 指引 Passage2 Langlangshan Little Monsters 浪浪山小妖怪 The Chinese animated film Nobody was very popular in summer, 2025.

This festival usually takes place between late January and early February, depending on the lunar calendar. The Spring Festival marks the beginning of a new year and is a time for families to come together and celebrate. Before the festival begins, people clean their homes to sweep away bad luck and make space for good fortune. They also decorate their houses with red lanterns, couplets and paper-cuts, as red is considered a lucky colour. On the night before the new year, families gather for a big reunion dinner. This meal includes many traditional dishes, such as dumplings, fish and rice cakes, which symbolize wealth, prosperity and happiness. During the Spring Festival, children receive red envelopes filled with money from their elders. These red envelopes, called “hongbao”, are given to wish the children good luck and good health in the coming year. Fireworks and firecrackers are also a big part of the celebration, as they are believed to scare away evil spirits. Another important tradition is visiting relatives and friends to exchange good wishes for the new year. People often say “Gong Xi Fa Cai”, which means “wishing you wealth and prosperity”.
