Small in size, he didn’t stand out at first glance—until someone noticed his prosthetic (假体的) leg. Born in 2013 in Xinjiang, China, Memettursunjan came into the world missing part of his right leg. As a child, he often stood by the window, watching other children run and play. “Walking with a prosthetic leg was difficult, so I usually stayed at home,” he explained. Everything changed when Memettursunjan was six. He watched a video of NBA star Stephen Curry, who wasn’t the tallest or the strongest player, but was fearless and skillful. The video deeply inspired him. However, the basketball court was ruthless (无情的). “I couldn’t beat anyone.” Memettursunjan recalled. “I even thought about giving up.” But he didn’t. “I cried at night, but the next morning, I told myself, real men don’t quit.” He hung a simple basketball hoop (篮球筐) on a tree outside his home and practiced for hours every day. He learned to play smarter: if he couldn’t run faster than others, he could focus on improving his skills; if he couldn’t jump high, he could pass the ball extremely well. His hard work paid off. He got into the school team—not because of others’ pity for him, but because of his perseverance (坚持) and skill. Now, Memettursunjan has found not only confidence but also friendship. “Basketball gives me something more than a game,” he said. “It has helped me find myself.” 1．How did the writer start the passage? A．By describing a scene. B．By comparing two people. C．By introducing a problem. 2．What did Memettursunjan usually do when he was a child? A．Climbed a mountain. B．Stayed by the window.

B．Practicing jumping higher. C．Getting a new prosthetic leg. 5．Which saying best describes Memettursunjan’s story? A．Time is money. B．Actions speak louder than words. C．Where there is a will, there is a way. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文讲述了新疆男孩Memettursunjan Erkin天生右腿残缺，受NBA球星库里激励，通过刻苦练习篮球，最终进入校队并找到自信和友谊的故事。 1．文章开头指出：“On a basketball court, Memettursunjan Erkin quickly ran past his opponent (对手), turned around, and threw a perfect pass to his teammate”，通过描述Memettursunjan在篮球场上的动作场景来开篇。 2．第二段指出他小时候常做的事：“he often stood by the window, watching other children run and play.”，说明他经常在窗边向外看，符合描述。 3．第三段指出：“Everything changed when Memettursunjan was six.”，他出生于2013年，6岁时即2019年。 4．第五段指出他提升的关键：“he could focus on improving his skills; if he couldn’t jump high, he could pass the ball extremely well”，说明他专注于技术技巧。 5．全文讲述了Memettursunjan克服身体缺陷、坚持梦想最终成功的故事，体现了“有志者事竟成”的精神。 Zhang Haojie, an outstanding student from Dazhou, Sichuan, has long been known not only for his academic excellence but also for his consistent acts of kindness that reflect profound personal growth. On a crisp autumn afternoon last October, as Zhang was rushing to school after picking up reference books at the city library, he noticed an elderly woman standing hesitantly at a busy crossroads. The old woman, who carried a heavy woven basket filled with vegetables, appeared disoriented (迷失方向的) by the chaotic traffic and the newly installed pedestrian signals. Without hesitation, Zhang slowed his pace and approached her. “Grandma, would you like me to help you cross the road?” he asked gently. After receiving her grateful nod, he took the basket from her hands and guided her step by step, keeping a watchful eye on the passing cars. It took nearly three minutes to navigate (顺利通过) the wide intersection, during which Zhang adjusted his speed repeatedly to match the old woman’s unsteady steps. What made this seemingly ordinary act extraordinary was Zhang’s own struggle that day. He had stayed up late the previous night preparing for a crucial physics mock exam (模拟考试), and he was already running 10 minutes behind schedule. Choosing to help the grandmother meant he would likely miss the exam’s opening remarks and lose valuable preparation time. However, later in an interview with the school newspaper, Zhang said, “I used to prioritize my own tasks above everything else, fearing any delay would ruin my plans. But that day, I realized that stepping out of my comfort zone to care for others is a more meaningful way to push myself beyond limits.” His selfless action did not go unnoticed. A passerby captured the scene on video, which quickly spread on local social media. Many citizens praised Zhang for balancing his personal goals with compassion, noting that his act embodied (体现) the true spirit of youth excellence. 1．Why was the elderly woman hesitant at the crossroads? A．She lost her way to the market. B．She was confused by the traffic situation. C．She was waiting for someone to help her carry the basket. D．She was too tired to walk across the road. 2．What made Zhang Haojie’s action special on that day? A．He was in a hurry to attend an important exam. B．He had just finished a physics competition. C．He was carrying heavy reference books for the exam. D．He was late for a meeting with his teacher. 3．According to the passage, what change did Zhang experience? A．He became more focused on his academic performance. B．He learned to balance his own needs with caring for others. C．He started to share his study methods with classmates. D．He realized the importance of being on time for exams. 4．Which of the following is true about the video? A．It was filmed by Zhang’s classmate. B．It was taken when Zhang was leaving school. C．It made Zhang famous nationwide overnight. D．It received positive comments from local netizens. 5．What is the main message of the passage? A．Academic excellence is the only standard for outstanding students. B．Helping others always leads to unexpected popularity. C．True excellence includes both personal growth and kindness. D．It is important to put one’s own tasks first in daily life. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了四川达州优秀学生张浩杰在赶赴重要物理模考、已经迟到的情况下，仍主动帮助迷路老人过马路，这件事被路人拍下走红网络，他也从中感悟到兼顾自身与关爱他人的成长道理。 1．根据文章第二段“The old woman…appeared disoriented by the chaotic traffic and the newly installed pedestrian signals.”可知，老妇人是因为混乱的交通和新安装的交通信号而感到迷失方向，因此犹豫不决。 2．根据文章第四段“He had stayed up late…preparing for a crucial physics mock exam, and he was already running 10 minutes behind schedule.”可知，张浩杰当时正赶着去参加一场重要的物理模拟考试，且已经迟到了，这种时间上的冲突使得他的助人行为显得特别。 3．根据文章第四段张浩杰的采访内容“I used to prioritize my own tasks…But that day, I realized that stepping out of my comfort zone to care for others…”以及第五段提到的“balancing his personal goals with compassion”可知，他经历的变化是学会了平衡个人目标与关爱他人。 4．根据文章最后一段“A passerby captured the scene on video, which quickly spread on local social media. Many citizens praised Zhang…”可知，视频是由路人拍摄，在当地社交媒体传播，并收到了市民的赞扬。 5．文章首段提到张浩杰不仅成绩优异（academic excellence）而且善良（acts of kindness），结尾段总结他的行为体现了“true spirit of youth excellence”。全文主旨在于说明真正的优秀不仅包含个人学业成长，也包含对他人的关爱。 Liu Zhi, a senior high school student living in Dazhou, bears heavy family responsibilities beyond his age.

On the contrary, he keeps sticking to his lessons and maintains satisfying grades”可知，他很好地平衡了兼职工作和学习。 3．根据第三段第一句“The headmaster accidentally finds out about Liu's story months later”可知，校长偶然发现实情，“accidentally”意为“偶然地”，对应选项中的“by chance”。 4．根据第三段中“arranges a part-time campus helper post for him to get more stable earnings”知，校长提供的奖励是一个稳定的校园兼职工作。 5．通读全文可知，刘志为分担家庭负担捡废品体现了“孝道（filial）”，且在劳累中坚持学习并取得好成绩体现了“勤奋（hard-working）”。第三段也明确提到了“filial piety and perseverance”。 Every year before the Qingming Festival, thousands of students and teachers from Guyuan No.2 Middle School and Hongwen Middle School in Ningxia start a special hiking trip. They set off from the urban area of Guyuan in the early morning, walking 108 li (54 kilometers) to Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery (烈士陵园) in Pengyang County to remember revolutionary martyrs. This meaningful activity has been held for 31 years since 1995. The hiking road is rough and difficult. Students have to climb over Huangmao Mountain, walking on winding mountain paths. The whole round trip takes about 14 to 16 hours, from before dawn to dark. It is a big test of students’ physical strength and willpower. During the long walk, students help and encourage each other. Although they feel tired with sore legs and painful feet, no one gives up easily. This is not just a common outdoor activity, but a “walking ideological and political class”. Before the hiking, schools will train students’ physical fitness and tell the students the history of the Renshanhe Battle (战役). In 1949, the Renshanhe Battle was the first battle to liberate Ningxia. Hundreds of soldiers lost their lives here and were buried in Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery. When students arrive at the cemetery, they hold simple memorial ceremonies. They observe a moment of silence, present flowers and clean the tombs for the martyrs. Through this activity, students deeply understand the spirit of revolutionary martyrs and learn the importance of perseverance and patriotism. Teachers say this activity helps students grow up and develop a strong will. Over the past 31 years, more than 30,000 students have taken part in this hiking trip, passing on the red spirit from generation to generation. 1．What is the end point of the hiking trip? A．Guyuan No. 2 Middle School B．Huangmao Mountain C．Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery D．Pengyang County urban area 2．What does the underlined phrase “ideological and political class” mean in the passage?

B．The Renshanhe Battle happened after the liberation of Ningxia. C．Only students take part in the hiking activity. D．The activity helps students develop a strong will and patriotic feelings. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了宁夏固原市两所中学的师生每年清明节前徒步前往任山河烈士陵园缅怀革命先烈的活动，介绍了活动的过程、意义和传承情况。 1．原文第一段提到“They set off from the urban area of Guyuan in the early morning, walking 108 li (54 kilometers) to Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery in Pengyang County to remember revolutionary martyrs.”，由此可知这次徒步旅行的终点是任山河烈士陵园。 2．原文第三段提到“Before the hiking, schools will train students’ physical fitness and tell the students the history of the Renshanhe Battle... Through this activity, students deeply understand the spirit of revolutionary martyrs and learn the importance of perseverance and patriotism.”，由此可知“walking ideological and political class”指的是学习历史故事和崇高精神的课程。 3．原文第四段提到“When students arrive at the cemetery, they hold simple memorial ceremonies. They observe a moment of silence, present flowers and clean the tombs for the martyrs.”，由此可知学生们在烈士陵园不会举办运动会。 4．原文第四段提到“Through this activity, students deeply understand the spirit of revolutionary martyrs and learn the importance of perseverance and patriotism.”，原文第五段提到“Teachers say this activity helps students grow up and develop a strong will.”，由此可知这项活动帮助学生培养坚强的意志和爱国情感。 On a freezing December day in Tongxin County, Ningxia, the quiet winter air was suddenly broken by screams—a 4-year-old boy had fallen through the ice into the icy lake! People rushed to the edge, hearts sinking, but no one dared step onto the cracking surface. At that critical moment, 13-year-old Li Jiating, a seventh-grade student, stepped forward bravely. “I’m light—I’ll go!” she said. She took a long pipe handed to her by a bystander (旁观者) and crawled carefully toward the ice hole. As she reached out to give the pipe to the boy, the ice broke again. Both she and the boy fell into the freezing water. But Li Jiating didn’t let go. She held tightly onto the pipe until adults on the shore pulled her out. Soon after, firefighters arrived and rescued the boy. Soaked (浸湿) and shivering, Li Jiating quietly rode her bike home without saying a word. Her father asked about her wet clothes, and she smiled and “lied”: “A water truck splashed (泼洒) me!” It wasn’t until 11 that night, when her father’s sister called, that the father learned the truth. “I’m scared and sad, but also proud of her kindness,” he said. The boy’s parents were very grateful. They posted messages to find the “unknown hero” and visited Li Jiating with gifts and money. Though Li Jiating refused the money, they left fruits and a sheep. “This is our sincere thanks,” the boy’s father said. Many honors came to her. Her school named her “A Good Youth with Courage and Kindness”. The county government gave her a prize, and the hospital offered her free physical exams for life. Alibaba also gave her a 5,000-yuan award. Li Jiating’s story is like a beam of light. We praise her kindness, but we also need to teach minors (未成年人) to stay safe while helping others. Let bravery go with wisdom— this is the best way to protect their kindness and pass warmth. 1．Why did Li Jiating decide to crawl on the ice to save the boy? A．She was the strongest person in the crowd. B．She had received professional ice-rescue training before.

The whole class was working on their math test. Suddenly, the fire alarm went off. Everyone jumped up, looking at Ms. Parker. “Stay calm. Leave everything and line up at the door,” Ms. Parker said calmly. As they walked outside, Daniel said to his friend Mike in a low voice, “I hadn’t finished question 10 yet. I was so close!” “Me too! I only had two questions left,” Mike replied worriedly. They stood on the playground for twenty minutes. Finally, the headmaster announced, “False alarm (误报). Please go back to class.” Back to the classroom, Ms. Parker looked at the test papers on the desks. “Well, this is unusual,” she said. “Here’s what we’ll do. If you haven’t finished, you can have five more minutes. Those who have already finished may hand in their papers now.” “Wait,” said Sarah, raising her hand. She had already finished before the alarm. “________” Everyone turned to look at her. “Why not?” asked Ms. Parker, truly interested. “I finished on time, so I don’t get those five minutes. But the students who didn’t finish get extra (额外的) time? That doesn’t seem right,” Sarah said. “If they get more time to finish their tests, we should get more time to check our answers.” The classroom went quiet. Ms. Parker thought for a moment, then nodded. “You’re right, Sarah. Fairness means everyone gets the same chance. If some get extra time, all should get extra time.” She looked around the classroom. “So here’s my new decision. Everyone gets five more minutes. Use the time to finish or to check your work.” Daniel’s face lit up. “Great!” But then Ms. Parker added, “However, I want you to think about something. Sarah could have kept quiet. She could have let you get extra time while she got nothing. But she spoke up for fairness—for everyone, not just for herself.” “Okay, five minutes start now,” Ms. Parker said. “Use them well.” 1．What can we learn about Daniel and Mike at the beginning of the story?

I was so close!”，Mike也回应“I only had two questions left!”，这直接说明两人当时都还有题目没答完。 2．Ms. Parker最初的决定是“If you haven’t finished, you can have five more minutes.”，Daniel和Mike都是没做完题的学生，这个决定对他们来说是有利的，因此他们会感到感激（Thankful）。 3．后文Sarah说的内容是“I finished on time, so I don’t get those five minutes. But the students who didn’t finish get extra time? That doesn’t seem right.”，这是她在提出“不公平”的观点，因此横线处最适合填“That’s not fair.”。 4．Sarah已经完成了考试，却依然勇敢地为公平发声，指出老师决定的问题，她的行为体现了勇敢（Brave）和诚实（Honest）的品质。 5．老师最后评价Sarah时说“Sarah could have kept quiet. She could have let you get extra time while she got nothing. But she spoke up for fairness—for everyone, not just for herself.”，点明了故事的主旨：我们要为他人着想，而不只是为自己。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 1 Teenagers today 单元话题阅读理解练习 序号 主人公 文章主题 核心品质 / 精神 1 庞众望 寒门学子，身有疾病，苦读考入清华，获评感动中国 自强、坚韧、知识改变命运、报国 2 赵典 脑瘫女作家，自学读写，深耕殷墟文化，书写历史 意志顽强、热爱传统文化、自立 3 通用青少年品格 如何培养优秀品质：诚实、负责、倾听、关爱他人 诚信、责任、友善、共情 4 求职男孩 少年凭良好言行、礼仪、整洁习惯打动面试官 注重细节、礼貌、自律、良好习惯 5 Memettursunjan 先天右腿残缺，受库里鼓舞苦练篮球，入选校队 永不放弃、自律、自强不息 6 张浩杰 赶考途中主动帮扶迷路老人，领悟兼顾自我与关爱他人 善良、无私、懂得成长的真正意义 7 刘志 家境贫寒，课余捡废品补贴家用，学业始终优异 孝顺、吃苦耐劳、平衡学业与家庭 8 固原师生徒步活动 师生徒步 54 公里祭扫烈士陵园，红色思政课堂 爱国、坚毅、传承红色精神 9 李佳婷 13 岁少女冰湖勇救落水孩童，事后隐瞒家人不求表扬 见义勇为、善良、低调、有分寸 10 Sarah（考场女孩） 考试火警中断，女孩勇敢提出公平对待全体学生 正直、勇敢、追求公平、换位思考 Pang Zhongwang: “Touching China” Awardee On August 16, 2025, Pang Zhongwang was named a “Touching China” 2024 Awardee.

First, people with a good character do not tell a lie. They always tell the truth and keep their promises. For example, if a child promises his parents to be home on time, he keeps his word, so his parents will trust him next time. Second, being responsible means being glad to take on duties or tasks. It also means being willing to accept the mistakes you have made. A responsible person accepts the results of his or her actions and decisions, whether they are good or bad. Third, learn how to listen to others’ ideas without trying to make them accept yours. Be kind to others like the way you accept others to treat you.    Finally, caring means treating others with understanding. Caring people are kind and they care about the feelings of others. Try to help others when you can. Change your ways of helping others. A good character is not something you feel or show once in a while. It will last for a long time.

He didn’t even have a recommendation (推荐信) with him.” “You are mistaken,” said the gentleman, “he had a great many.” “He made his shoes clean when he came in, and closed the door after him; showing that he was orderly (井然有序的).” “He gave his seat to the disabled old man; showing that he was ________.” He took off his cap when he came in, and answered my questions quickly and respectfully (恭敬地); showing that he was polite. “He lifted up the book which I had purposely (故意地) laid on the floor, and put it on the table, while all the others stepped over it or pushed it aside; showing that he was careful.” “And he waited quietly for his turn, instead of pushing the others aside; showing that he was modest (谦逊的).” “When I talked with him, I noticed that his clothes were carefully brushed, his hair in nice order, and his teeth as white as milk. When he wrote his name, I noticed that his fingernails were clean; instead of having some untidy personal habits.” “Don’t you call these things letters of recommendation?

Small in size, he didn’t stand out at first glance—until someone noticed his prosthetic (假体的) leg. Born in 2013 in Xinjiang, China, Memettursunjan came into the world missing part of his right leg. As a child, he often stood by the window, watching other children run and play. “Walking with a prosthetic leg was difficult, so I usually stayed at home,” he explained. Everything changed when Memettursunjan was six. He watched a video of NBA star Stephen Curry, who wasn’t the tallest or the strongest player, but was fearless and skillful. The video deeply inspired him. However, the basketball court was ruthless (无情的). “I couldn’t beat anyone.” Memettursunjan recalled. “I even thought about giving up.” But he didn’t. “I cried at night, but the next morning, I told myself, real men don’t quit.” He hung a simple basketball hoop (篮球筐) on a tree outside his home and practiced for hours every day. He learned to play smarter: if he couldn’t run faster than others, he could focus on improving his skills; if he couldn’t jump high, he could pass the ball extremely well. His hard work paid off. He got into the school team—not because of others’ pity for him, but because of his perseverance (坚持) and skill. Now, Memettursunjan has found not only confidence but also friendship. “Basketball gives me something more than a game,” he said. “It has helped me find myself.” 1．How did the writer start the passage? A．By describing a scene. B．By comparing two people. C．By introducing a problem. 2．What did Memettursunjan usually do when he was a child? A．Climbed a mountain. B．Stayed by the window. C．Watched videos. 3．When did Memettursunjan get interested in basketball? A．In 2015. B．In 2017. C．In 2019. 4．What was the key to his improvement? A．Focusing on improving skills. B．Practicing jumping higher. C．Getting a new prosthetic leg. 5．Which saying best describes Memettursunjan’s story? A．Time is money. B．Actions speak louder than words. C．Where there is a will, there is a way. Zhang Haojie, an outstanding student from Dazhou, Sichuan, has long been known not only for his academic excellence but also for his consistent acts of kindness that reflect profound personal growth. On a crisp autumn afternoon last October, as Zhang was rushing to school after picking up reference books at the city library, he noticed an elderly woman standing hesitantly at a busy crossroads. The old woman, who carried a heavy woven basket filled with vegetables, appeared disoriented (迷失方向的) by the chaotic traffic and the newly installed pedestrian signals. Without hesitation, Zhang slowed his pace and approached her. “Grandma, would you like me to help you cross the road?” he asked gently. After receiving her grateful nod, he took the basket from her hands and guided her step by step, keeping a watchful eye on the passing cars. It took nearly three minutes to navigate (顺利通过) the wide intersection, during which Zhang adjusted his speed repeatedly to match the old woman’s unsteady steps. What made this seemingly ordinary act extraordinary was Zhang’s own struggle that day. He had stayed up late the previous night preparing for a crucial physics mock exam (模拟考试), and he was already running 10 minutes behind schedule. Choosing to help the grandmother meant he would likely miss the exam’s opening remarks and lose valuable preparation time. However, later in an interview with the school newspaper, Zhang said, “I used to prioritize my own tasks above everything else, fearing any delay would ruin my plans. But that day, I realized that stepping out of my comfort zone to care for others is a more meaningful way to push myself beyond limits.” His selfless action did not go unnoticed. A passerby captured the scene on video, which quickly spread on local social media. Many citizens praised Zhang for balancing his personal goals with compassion, noting that his act embodied (体现) the true spirit of youth excellence. 1．Why was the elderly woman hesitant at the crossroads? A．She lost her way to the market. B．She was confused by the traffic situation. C．She was waiting for someone to help her carry the basket. D．She was too tired to walk across the road. 2．What made Zhang Haojie’s action special on that day? A．He was in a hurry to attend an important exam. B．He had just finished a physics competition. C．He was carrying heavy reference books for the exam. D．He was late for a meeting with his teacher. 3．According to the passage, what change did Zhang experience? A．He became more focused on his academic performance. B．He learned to balance his own needs with caring for others. C．He started to share his study methods with classmates. D．He realized the importance of being on time for exams. 4．Which of the following is true about the video? A．It was filmed by Zhang’s classmate. B．It was taken when Zhang was leaving school. C．It made Zhang famous nationwide overnight. D．It received positive comments from local netizens. 5．What is the main message of the passage? A．Academic excellence is the only standard for outstanding students. B．Helping others always leads to unexpected popularity. C．True excellence includes both personal growth and kindness. D．It is important to put one’s own tasks first in daily life. Liu Zhi, a senior high school student living in Dazhou, bears heavy family responsibilities beyond his age. His elderly parents are in poor health and lack stable income to cover daily expenses (费用) and his schooling fees. Determined to ease the family’s financial burden (经济负担) instead of dropping out of school, he comes up with a practical idea. In his spare time between classes and after school, Liu wanders around the campus to collect waste paper, empty plastic bottles and discarded cans. He sorts these wastes carefully and sells them to a recycling station for pocket money to share household costs. Though the work is tiring and sometimes draws curious stares from classmates, he never abandons it or neglects his studies. On the contrary, he keeps sticking to his lessons and maintains satisfying grades. The headmaster accidentally finds out about Liu’s story months later. Deeply moved by his filial piety and perseverance, the principal praises him publicly and arranges a part-time campus helper post for him to get more stable earnings without affecting study.

They set off from the urban area of Guyuan in the early morning, walking 108 li (54 kilometers) to Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery (烈士陵园) in Pengyang County to remember revolutionary martyrs. This meaningful activity has been held for 31 years since 1995. The hiking road is rough and difficult. Students have to climb over Huangmao Mountain, walking on winding mountain paths. The whole round trip takes about 14 to 16 hours, from before dawn to dark. It is a big test of students’ physical strength and willpower. During the long walk, students help and encourage each other. Although they feel tired with sore legs and painful feet, no one gives up easily. This is not just a common outdoor activity, but a “walking ideological and political class”. Before the hiking, schools will train students’ physical fitness and tell the students the history of the Renshanhe Battle (战役). In 1949, the Renshanhe Battle was the first battle to liberate Ningxia. Hundreds of soldiers lost their lives here and were buried in Renshanhe Martyrs’ Cemetery. When students arrive at the cemetery, they hold simple memorial ceremonies. They observe a moment of silence, present flowers and clean the tombs for the martyrs. Through this activity, students deeply understand the spirit of revolutionary martyrs and learn the importance of perseverance and patriotism. Teachers say this activity helps students grow up and develop a strong will. Over the past 31 years, more than 30,000 students have taken part in this hiking trip, passing on the red spirit from generation to generation. 1．What is the end point of the hiking trip?

On a freezing December day in Tongxin County, Ningxia, the quiet winter air was suddenly broken by screams—a 4-year-old boy had fallen through the ice into the icy lake! People rushed to the edge, hearts sinking, but no one dared step onto the cracking surface. At that critical moment, 13-year-old Li Jiating, a seventh-grade student, stepped forward bravely. “I’m light—I’ll go!” she said. She took a long pipe handed to her by a bystander (旁观者) and crawled carefully toward the ice hole. As she reached out to give the pipe to the boy, the ice broke again. Both she and the boy fell into the freezing water. But Li Jiating didn’t let go. She held tightly onto the pipe until adults on the shore pulled her out. Soon after, firefighters arrived and rescued the boy. Soaked (浸湿) and shivering, Li Jiating quietly rode her bike home without saying a word. Her father asked about her wet clothes, and she smiled and “lied”: “A water truck splashed (泼洒) me!” It wasn’t until 11 that night, when her father’s sister called, that the father learned the truth. “I’m scared and sad, but also proud of her kindness,” he said. The boy’s parents were very grateful. They posted messages to find the “unknown hero” and visited Li Jiating with gifts and money. Though Li Jiating refused the money, they left fruits and a sheep. “This is our sincere thanks,” the boy’s father said. Many honors came to her. Her school named her “A Good Youth with Courage and Kindness”. The county government gave her a prize, and the hospital offered her free physical exams for life. Alibaba also gave her a 5,000-yuan award. Li Jiating’s story is like a beam of light. We praise her kindness, but we also need to teach minors (未成年人) to stay safe while helping others.

Everyone jumped up, looking at Ms. Parker. “Stay calm. Leave everything and line up at the door,” Ms. Parker said calmly. As they walked outside, Daniel said to his friend Mike in a low voice, “I hadn’t finished question 10 yet. I was so close!” “Me too! I only had two questions left,” Mike replied worriedly. They stood on the playground for twenty minutes. Finally, the headmaster announced, “False alarm (误报). Please go back to class.” Back to the classroom, Ms. Parker looked at the test papers on the desks. “Well, this is unusual,” she said. “Here’s what we’ll do. If you haven’t finished, you can have five more minutes. Those who have already finished may hand in their papers now.” “Wait,” said Sarah, raising her hand. She had already finished before the alarm. “________” Everyone turned to look at her. “Why not?” asked Ms. Parker, truly interested. “I finished on time, so I don’t get those five minutes. But the students who didn’t finish get extra (额外的) time? That doesn’t seem right,” Sarah said. “If they get more time to finish their tests, we should get more time to check our answers.” The classroom went quiet. Ms. Parker thought for a moment, then nodded. “You’re right, Sarah. Fairness means everyone gets the same chance. If some get extra time, all should get extra time.” She looked around the classroom. “So here’s my new decision. Everyone gets five more minutes. Use the time to finish or to check your work.” Daniel’s face lit up. “Great!” But then Ms. Parker added, “However, I want you to think about something. Sarah could have kept quiet. She could have let you get extra time while she got nothing. But she spoke up for fairness—for everyone, not just for herself.” “Okay, five minutes start now,” Ms. Parker said. “Use them well.” 1．What can we learn about Daniel and Mike at the beginning of the story?
