C On 6 May 2025, a 28-year-old Chinese snooker (斯诺克)player named Zhao Xintong made sports history.He defeated Welsh star Mark Williams 18-12 in the World Snooker Championship final.This was China’s first world champion in snooker! Before this, British players had won for 98 years, but now that long record was broken. Zhao’s path to success was full of stories.In 2023, he had to stop playing for 20 months because people said he did something wrong in a match.In September 2024, he came back.He started from the early qualifying games (资格赛)and played nine matches.He won 111 frames (局)! In one game, he even beat seven-time champion Ronnie O’Sullivan 17-7.He could make long shots right 80% of the time and scored 18 century breaks, equaling (比得上)Ding Junhui’s record in 2016! The final against 50-year-old Williams was very exciting.Williams was the oldest player to reach the final.Zhao was ahead 17-8, but Williams tried hard and won four frames one after another.Then, in the 30th frame, Zhao stayed calm (镇静的)and made an 87-point break to win the game.When he got the trophy (奖杯), he held the Chinese flag high. Ding Junhui, China’s snooker pioneer who once came second in 2016, said, “Zhao Xintong did what Chinese players have hoped for many years.” This win is like when Yao Ming made basketball popular in China.

Scientists at Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST)have developed “lunar bricks”.They hope to use the bricks to build a research station on the moon. ②To make the bricks, the scientists used a lunar soil simulant (模拟月壤).The bricks are more than three times stronger than normal red bricks.They also have special structures, which were used in ancient Chinese buildings.This makes it possible to simply put these bricks together. ③Professor Zhou Cheng from HUST said that they had tested five different kinds of simulated lunar soil composition (成分)and used three ways to harden it.In this way they could choose the best materials for making the bricks.“Lunar soil isn’t the same everywhere on the moon,” Zhou said.“For example, one of the kinds tested simulates the lunar soil at the landing site of Chang’e-5, which is mainly basalt (玄武岩).” ④The lunar bricks need to be tested well before being used because the moon has an extreme (极端的)environment.Quakes often happen there.And it gets as hot as 180 during the day and as cold as -190 at night.The lunar bricks were sent to China’s space station on the Tianzhou-8 spacecraft.There, scientists carried out tests to see how well the bricks work in space. 11.( )Which of the following can be put in “ ” in Paragraph ①? A.We use “lunar bricks”, of course! B.The question is too difficult to answer. C.Many people dream of going to the moon. D.Scientists may study the topic in the future! 12.( )Which properly shows the strength comparison of lunar bricks and red bricks? 13.( )How did scientists find the best materials for lunar bricks? A.They learned about lunar soil from scientific reports. B.They compared different bricks used widely nowadays. C.They read many books about ancient Chinese buildings. D.They did many tests on simulated lunar soil and treated it in different ways. 14.( )What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A.The introduction of China’s Tianzhou-8 spacecraft. B.The reasons why lunar bricks need to be tested in space. C.The temperature difference on the moon between day and night. D.The time when the lunar bricks will return to Earth. 15.( )What is most probably the structure of the passage? 四、阅读表达。 阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。 The greatest scientists are famous not only for their discoveries, but also for their interesting lives.Having a special, uncommon mind often goes hand in hand with unusual acts. Nikola Tesla is known for many inventions.One is the alternating-current (AC)electricity (交流电).While inventing, Tesla was good at keeping things in mind, because he used picture thinking and imagined every step in his mind first.Tesla said he wanted to do it because of his mother, who invented small electrical machines when he was a child. Another scientist encouraged by his mother was Albert Einstein, though what he got from his mother was a love of music.In fact, Einstein often played music on the piano and violin to help him brainstorm. Einstein’s great works include the most famous E=mc2 and his theory of relativity.However, thanks to his wild hair, he is also well-known for the looks of a “mad scientist” and you can tell that he had some interesting quirks (怪癖).For example, he had a strong dislike of wearing socks. Sometimes, the smartest of us are also the strangest.That quiet child in the corner may one day be the next Tesla or Einstein. 1.What is one of Tesla’s famous inventions? _ 2.Why could Tesla keep things in mind while inventing? _ 3.What did Einstein get from his mother to help brainstorm? _ 4.What quirks did Einstein have?
