Students demonstrated good comprehension of key facts about China's major rivers during while-reading activities. However,some aspects could be enhanced. While most students grasped the basic concepts, a few struggled with larger number pronunciation and more complex geographical terms. The discussion about river protection generated interest but could benefit from more concrete examples. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
