A Chinese Rider’s Dream Comes True
On March 28, 2026, exciting news came from the WSBK race (世界超级摩托车锦标赛) at Algarve International Track in Portugal(葡萄牙). A French rider, on a Zhangxue 820RR-RS motorcycle, crossed the finish line and won the first place. He beat the second rider by nearly 4 seconds, and won another champion in the second round even after a mistake and had a great comeback(逆转). This win broke the long-term monopoly(垄断) of big international brands(品牌) like Ducati, and let Chinese motorcycles step on the world’s top racing stage.
The man behind this success is 38-year-old Zhang Xue. His story is not only a grass-roots legend(传奇), but also a symbol of China’s manufacturing(制造) development. Zhang was born in a poor village in Huaihua, Hunan. His parents divorced(离婚) when he was young, and he once made a living by picking up rubbish. At 14, he left school and became a learner in a motorcycle repair shop. With his deep love for motorcycles, he could even put an engine together with his eyes closed.
At 19, he rode over 100 kilometers in the rain to catch up with a TV program team, just to get a chance to be noticed by a racing team. Later, he became a stunt rider(特技车手). Knowing his own limits(局限), he turned to making motorcycles. He went to Chongqing with only 20,000 yuan to build and sell motorcycles, set up his first brand, and even left his company because he insisted(坚持) on self-developing engines. In 2024, he started a new brand named after himself. Finally, his fully Chinese-made bike made history in 2026.
51. Where was the WSBK race held on March 28, 2026?
A. In China. B. In Portugal. C. In France. D. In Italy.
52. How did the French rider win the second round?
A. He made no mistake at all. B. He had a great comeback after a mistake.
C. He rode a Ducati motorcycle. D. He beat others by over 10 seconds.
53. What did Zhang Xue do when he was 14?
A. He built his first motorcycle brand.
B. He became a stunt rider.
C. He left school and learned to repair motorcycles.
D. He rode in the rain to meet a TV team.
54. Why did Zhang Xue go to Chongqing?
A. To watch motorcycle races. B. To work for an international brand.
C. To build and sell motorcycles. D. To take part in the WSBK race.
55. What is the best title of the passage?
A. A French Racing Champion
B. Zhang Xue and His Chinese Racing Legend
C. The History of WSBK Race
D. How to Become a Stunt Rider
C
In recent years, China has made great progress in science and environmental protection, and these changes are deeply influencing teenagers’ daily life and growth. More middle schools are connecting national development with students’ quality-oriented(素质教育的) education, guiding young people to keep up with the times and take social responsibility(责任).
China’s space industry has achieved many exciting breakthroughs(突破), which has brought great interest among middle school students. To let teenagers learn about aerospace(航空航天) science better, many schools have set up space science clubs and invited astronauts and scientists to give online or offline (线下) lectures. Students in these clubs not only learn basic knowledge of space, but also design simple aerospace models by themselves. Some schools even work with local science museums to hold aerospace exhibitions(展览), allowing students to get close to real space technology. Such activities not only develop students’ interest in science but also plant the seeds of exploring the unknown in their hearts.
At the same time, the idea of green and low-carbon life has been in students’ minds deeply. Different from simple daily actions, many students take part in more meaningful environmental protection activities. They join community volunteer work to make rubbish-sorting(垃圾分类) knowledge popular, collect used books and clothes to give away to children in poor areas, and use recycled(可回收的) materials to make handicrafts for school sales. A 14-year-old student from Guangzhou said, “We realize that environmental protection is not just a slogan, but a long-term action that everyone should stick to(坚持). Every small effort we make will help protect our living planet.”
Besides, schools are also paying more attention to students’ digital literacy(素养). Teachers guide students to use the Internet and digital tools correctly, avoid losing themselves in short videos and online games, and learn to get useful information for study from the Internet. Students are encouraged to use digital software to finish creative homework, such as making short videos about environmental protection or space science. This helps them improve their abilities while keeping up with technological development.
As young teenagers in the new era(时代), we should not only focus on textbook knowledge, but also care about national events and social problems. By learning modern science, practicing low-carbon life and developing good digital habits, we can become more qualified(合格的) teenagers and make our country better in the future.
56. What can students do in space science clubs?
A. Travel to space with astronauts(宇航员).
B. Design simple aerospace models by themselves.
C. Work in local science museums.
D. Give lectures about space science.
57. Why do students take part in community volunteer work?
A. To make money for their clubs.
B. To make more people know about rubbish-sorting.
C. To finish their school homework.
D. To practice speaking skills in public.
58. What does the underlined word “slogan” in Paragraph 3 probably mean in Chinese?
A. 口号。 B. 游戏。 C. 任务。 D. 类型。
59. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Students can learn all space knowledge from online lectures only.
B. Environmental protection is a short-term action for students.
C. Schools help students use digital tools in a correct way.
D. Students are encouraged to spend more time on short videos.
60. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce China’s latest space technology.
B. To tell students how to keep away from online games.
C. To call on teenagers to care about the country and improve themselves.
D. To show different after-school activities in middle schools.
五、信息还原题 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Reading Is Always Popular
Nowadays, reading becomes a popular lifestyle for teenagers, not just a school task. With the development of technology, the ways of reading are more colorful than before. 61 Today, let’s learn about popular reading choices and useful tips for middle school students.
First, digital reading is widely loved by young people. Many students like reading e-books on tablets or listening to audio books(有声读物) on apps. 62 You can enjoy a book on the way to school or before going to bed, which fits our busy daily life perfectly. Audio books are especially hot now, for we can “read” with our ears when we are tired of looking at screens.
Second, choose popular and suitable book types. What kinds of books are teenagers crazy about in 2026? 63 They can learn about robots and new technology from these books. Traditional Chinese culture books are also back in fashion, like classic poems and history stories. Besides, interesting graphic(有图示的) novels and science comics are great choices, as they have beautiful pictures and easy words. 64
Third, follow some easy reading suggestions. Don’t spend too much time reading on digital products to protect your eyes. Try to balance digital reading and paper book reading. Make a small reading plan, like reading for 30 minutes every day. 65 Sharing your ideas with friends or family can also make reading more fun.
Reading brings us knowledge and happiness, and helps us grow into better people. No matter which way you choose, start reading and enjoy its magic!
A. It’s easy to carry and saves a lot of space.
B. Science fiction books are the most popular among them.
C. You can also write down your favorite sentences while reading.
D. Old books are too boring for most teenagers.
E. We can enjoy not only traditional paper reading but also digital reading.
F. These interesting books can make us love reading more.
G. Reading too much is bad for our study.

Weight Gain (增加) in Winter
For many, winter holidays offer a perfect time to enjoy themselves. This can certainly make it easy to put on weight. “Holiday weight gain isn’t all from celebrating,” says Christina Badaracco, a doctor.
Some animals like to eat more to keep warm in cold weather, when food is more valuable. We human beings are just like them in this way. Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables aren’t in season this time of year. So we have to eat richer foods.
“In winter, we get less sunlight and stay inside more,” says Badaracco. This can slow our metabolism (新陈代谢), which plays a role in holiday weight gain.
We move less in cold days. People are less active during the winter months. They have less interest in getting outside to exercise or even drive to the gym. It’s reported that more than one-third of the Americans sleep more in winter.
What’s more, when the temperature drops, we feel especially cold. So many people like to relax by having drinks. It’s much easier for them to become fatter.
According to a survey, people expected to gain 5.5 pounds over the winter holiday, but a study shows that in fact, most people gained only around 1.5 pounds. “People always think that they will gain more weight over the holidays than they really do, but the weight they do gain over the holidays will keep going up over time if they don’t lose it,” Badaracco says. In fact, a study has found that those weight gains add up over the years.
It is completely normal to have weight changes during the whole year. The key is that you take action early to stop it if it continues growing over time. You can make an exercise plan, weigh yourself daily, or find a friend to do exercise with.
“It’s more important and useful to set small, slow and proper goals(目标) first. Then you can set bigger ones through small wins,” says Badaracco.

As we grow up, we need colorful activities to improve ourselves and learn more about the world. Cultural activities and modern technology are changing the way we middle school students study and live every day. Our school 86 (recent) organized a special two-week activity 87 (call) “Reading & Creation Week”, which turned out to be such a big success that all of us still remember it clearly.
During the activity, 88 famous local writer was invited to give us a wonderful speech. He told us that reading really helps open our minds and enrich our spirit. He introduced quite a few great works, including fiction, non-fiction and great novels about history and nature. He also advised us 89 (develop) a habit of reading 30 minutes every day, instead of spending too much time on short videos.
At the school book fair(书展), there were many books from different 90 (publish) houses. I chose a special novel full 91 amazing stories about nature and traditional culture. I was so interested in it that I almost forgot to have lunch and rest. 92 I finished reading the whole book, I wrote a careful book review and handed it in to my Chinese teacher on time.
We also took an active part in a special handicraft competition. Many students used recycled waste paper and bottles to make beautiful works of art. This activity showed us that we can not only protect the environment but also enjoy 93 (we) while creating something new.
This meaningful activity made me realize that reading and creation can make our school life much 94 (colourful) than before.
