The relatively new team secured victories in both races of the World Supersport category, marking the first time a Chinese motorcycle manufacturer has won at this global competition. Behind the breakthrough is Zhang Xue, whose journey from a workshop to the global racing stage has drawn widespread attention. Driven by his love and passion for motorcycles, Zhang, who was born in a small village in Huaihua, Central China’s Hunan province, began to learn to repair motorcycles at the age of 14. Spending a long time studying engines, he developed technical skills, bringing him a step closer to his racing dream. He worked hard and saved to buy a rickety second-hand motorbike to practice skills. In 2006, at just 19, Zhang did what many considered “crazy” — riding more than 100 kilometers in the rain for a chance to appear on television and show his riding skills. Although his initial attempt fell short, his persistence paid off, eventually earning him an opportunity with a professional racing team. He later worked as both a stunt (特技) rider and technician. However, years of high-intensity training led to injuries, while limitations in China’s motorcycle industry exposed a significant technological gap with global leaders. Realizing this, Zhang shifted his focus from racing to manufacturing. Between 2009 and 2012, he worked at a motorcycle factory in Zhejiang province, mastering the full vehicle development process. In 2013, he moved to Chongqing, a major center of China’s motorcycle industry, where he began his own journey of motorcycle manufacturing. In 2024, he founded ZXMOTO, aiming to develop fully independent engine technology. His efforts contributed to the launch of the 820 RR, a mass-produced civilian motorcycle powered by a domestically developed engine. Adapted for racing, the model delivered the team’s historic double victory in Portugal. 4. What does the underlined word “rickety” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fast and smooth. B. Old and shaky. C. New and expensive. D. Large and heavy. 5. What did Zhang Xue do to appear on TV? A. Cycle far in the wet. B. Compete for a prize. C. Work as a technician. D. Show off his riding skills. 6. Why did Zhang Xue found ZXMOTO? A. To expose an obvious technological gap. B. To introduce more advanced technologies. C. To master the vehicle development process. D. To develop engine technology of their own. 7. Which words best describe Zhang Xue? A. Flexible and generous. B. Adaptable and demanding. C. Organized and dynamic. D. Determined and hardworking. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了中国摩托车生产商ZXMOTO在世界超级摩托车锦标赛葡萄牙站取得历史性突破及创始人张雪的奋斗历程。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“He worked hard and saved to buy a rickety second-hand motorbike to practice skills.(他努力工作，攒钱买了一辆rickety二手摩托车来练习技能。)”可知，张雪为了练习技能，攒钱买了一辆二手车，车况应不是很好，可推测出rickety意为“摇摇晃晃的，破旧的”。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In 2006, at just 19, Zhang did what many considered “crazy” — riding more than 100 kilometers in the rain for a chance to appear on television and show his riding skills.(2006年，年仅19岁的张做了许多人认为“疯狂”的事情——在雨中骑行100多公里，只为有机会上电视展示自己的骑行技能。)”可知，张雪为了上电视，在雨中骑行了100多公里来展示自己的骑行技能。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“In 2024, he founded ZXMOTO, aiming to develop fully independent engine technology.(2024年，他创立了ZXMOTO，旨在开发完全独立的发动机技术。)”可知，张雪创立ZXMOTO的目的是开发自己的发动机技术。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Driven by his love and passion for motorcycles, Zhang, who was born in a small village in Huaihua, Central China’s Hunan province, began to learn to repair motorcycles at the age of 14.(出于对摩托车的热爱和激情，出生于中国中部湖南省怀化市一个小村庄的张雪，从14岁开始学习修理摩托车。)”以及后文描述他为了实现梦想所做出的努力和坚持，如攒钱买摩托车练习技能、在雨中骑行展示技能、从赛车转向制造等，可推断出张雪是一个有决心且勤奋的人。 C Hustle culture (奋斗文化) is everywhere today. It encourages people to work constantly, stay positive, and avoid humor. Words like “Rise and Grind (起床，奋斗)” appear in advertisements and books. Companies like WeWork spread this lifestyle globally, offering not just offices but also apartments, gyms, and schools. This way of working has become mainstream, making it hard to escape. Many young people were raised to believe that hard work and good grades would lead to satisfying jobs. Instead, they often end up with insecure, meaningless work and heavy student debt. Pretending to love work becomes a way to protect themselves. Also, successful business leaders like Elon Musk argue that working 80 to 100 hours a week is necessary to change the world, even though data show long hours do not improve productivity or creativity. Some experts call hustle culture a trick because it mainly benefits managers, financiers, and owners. Workers sacrifice their health, relationships, and happiness. For example, one entrepreneur (企业家) gained over 40 pounds and lost personal connections while building his startup. He only felt free after rediscovering non-work activities like reading fiction or playing games. The extreme result of overwork is overtiredness, which is becoming common among young workers. Many companies use high-minded missions to make work seem noble. Spotify claims to unlock human creativity, and Dropbox talks about releasing the world’s creative energy. However, most jobs involve boring and pointless tasks. A professor points out that beautifying work has been tried for centuries, but it is often the other way around. In 17th-century England, workers just drank more because work failed to bring the promised satisfaction. To avoid the harms of hustle culture, workers should seek balance. Non-work activities like reading, movies, or games are not wasted time but necessary for well-being. Employees are also starting to realize their power. For instance, thousands of Google workers protested against unfair treatment. In short, work should not be the only measure of a person’s value. A healthy life includes rest, fun, and time away from the office. 8. What is the main feature of “hustle culture”? A. It encourages humor and relaxation. B. It leads people to escape their daily life. C. It focuses on new lifestyles in the offices. D. It values constant work and extreme positivity. 9. Why do many young people pretend to love their work? A. To pay off their debts. B. To keep their present jobs. C. To hold social identities. D. To improve their creativity. 10. What does the writer suggest workers do? A. Avoid all non-work activities. B. Join Google’s walkout immediately. C. Work longer hours to change the world. D. Seek a balance between their work and life. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Hustle Culture Trap B. Ways to Work 100 Hours a Week C. Young People’s Love for Their Work D. WeWork’s Successful Business Story 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了奋斗文化对年轻人的影响及呼吁寻求工作与生活平衡。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Hustle culture (奋斗文化) is everywhere today. It encourages people to work constantly, stay positive, and avoid humor.(奋斗文化如今无处不在。它鼓励人们不断工作，保持积极，避免幽默。)”可知，奋斗文化的主要特征是重视持续工作和极度积极。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Instead, they often end up with insecure, meaningless work and heavy student debt. Pretending to love work becomes a way to protect themselves.(相反，他们最终往往得到的是不稳定、毫无意义的工作和沉重的学生债务。假装热爱工作成了保护自己的一种方式。)”可知，许多年轻人假装热爱工作是为了保住他们目前的工作。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To avoid the harms of hustle culture, workers should seek balance.(为了避免奋斗文化的危害，工人应该寻求平衡。)”可知，作者建议工人在工作和生活之间寻求平衡。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“To avoid the harms of hustle culture, workers should seek balance.(为了避免奋斗文化的危害，工人应该寻求平衡。)”可知，文章主要讨论了奋斗文化对年轻人的负面影响，以及如何避免这些危害，即寻求工作与生活的平衡。因此，最佳标题是“奋斗文化的陷阱”。 D Running has long been considered one of the most efficient, convenient, and beneficial workouts. But some claim you get more out of the classic way of exercising with a new technique—or rather a 180-degree about-face. A study led by Dr. Gardner published in 2016 in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning backs this up. Researchers found that running backwards benefited athletes by improving their running economy; by running backwards over time the athletes became better runners overall. Unlike forward running, which generally uses the muscles in the front of the leg, running backwards primarily uses the muscles of the bottom chain, especially the calf（腓）muscles and glutes. Dr. Gardner adds, “Within just a minute or two of running backwards, you’ll start to feel the burning in your calves!” Frankie Ruiz, a longtime cross-country running coach and chief running officer explains that aside from moving in reverse, running backwards differs from regular running because it requires an entirely different combination of things to do correctly. Running backwards may be easier on the knees. “In a backwards movement, the set of muscles involved in absorbing the impact in the lower level are opposite. Your lower leg muscles are doing most of the absorbing, thereby placing less stress on the knees. Running backwards will recruit lesser utilized muscles resulting in muscle growth and toning,” says Ruiz. In addition to using different muscles than running forwards, running backwards enhances balance and posture, “as it forces you to stay in a more upright position,” Gardner says. As to claims that running backwards can burn more calories than forward running, Gardner says it’s not so black and white. Lots of factors (including heart rate, age, and others) affect how many calories you burn during any particular activity. “Different muscle pattern usage doesn’t necessarily burn more calories. It is the intensity（强度）that matters most,” she points out. Because running backwards causes more muscle activity than running forwards, however, Gardner notes it makes sense that one might burn more calories, but there’s not conclusive data on exact calorie consumption differences. 12. What is the benefit of running backwards? A. It combines various muscles. B. It can better athletes’ performance. C. It frees the front muscles of the leg. D. It gets calf muscles and glutes burned. 13. Why is Ruiz’s opinion on running backwards mentioned? A. To state more of its advantages. B. To share his personal preference. C. To show its promising development. D. To introduce detailed guidance on it. 14. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. Calories consumption is difficult to measure. B. Using different muscles can burn more calories. C. The amount of calories burning depends on many aspects. D. Running backwards burns more calories than running forwards. 15. Who would benefit most from this passage? A. Nutritionists pursuing a balanced diet. B. Patients hoping to cure their injured knees. C. Coaches intending to better their training methods. D. Runners seeking to improve their economical situation. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了倒着跑步的好处并分析了形成这些好处的原因。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Researchers found that running backwards benefited athletes by improving their running economy; by running backwards over time the athletes became better runners overall.(研究人员发现，向后跑步通过改善跑步经济使运动员受益；随着时间的推移，通过向后跑，运动员总体上变成了更好的跑步者)”可知，向后跑步的运动员整体上会成为更好的跑步运动员，也就是说，能使运动员的表现更好。故选B项 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Running backwards may be easier on the knees. “In a backwards movement, the set of muscles involved in absorbing the impact in the lower level are opposite. Your lower leg muscles are doing most of the absorbing, thereby placing less stress on the knees. Running backwards will recruit lesser utilized muscles resulting in muscle growth and toning,” says Ruiz.(膝盖向后跑可能更容易。“在向后运动中，参与吸收较低水平冲击力的一组肌肉是相反的。您的小腿肌肉正在完成大部分吸收，从而减轻膝盖的压力。向后跑步会招募较少使用的肌肉，从而导致肌肉生长和调理，”Ruiz说)”可知，Ruiz认为倒着跑步对膝盖有保护作用，且也会导致肌肉的增长和塑形，结合本文主题为倒着跑步的好处，所以提到Ruiz的观点是为了陈述更多倒着跑步的好处。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Lots of factors (including heart rate, age, and others) affect how many calories you burn during any particular activity.(许多因素（包括心率、年龄等）会影响您在任何特定活动中燃烧多少热量)”以及尾段中的“Because running backwards causes more muscle activity than running forwards, however, Gardner notes it makes sense that one might burn more calories, but there’s not conclusive data on exact calorie consumption differences.(然而，因为向后跑步比向前跑步会导致更多的肌肉活动，加德纳指出，一个人可能会燃烧更多的卡路里是有道理的，但没有关于确切卡路里消耗差异的结论性数据)”可知，向后跑步比向前跑步肌肉活动会更多，但没有明确的结论证实热量燃烧的差异性，有很多因素决定了热量燃烧的多少，由此可推断，最后两段进述的是热量燃烧的量取决于很多因素。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Researchers found that running backwards benefited athletes by improving their running economy; by running backwards over time the athletes became better runners overall.(研究人员发现，向后跑步通过改善跑步经济使运动员受益;随着时间的推移，通过向后跑，运动员总体上变成了更好的跑步者)”可知，研究发现，向后跑步能整体上提高运动员的表现，由此可推断，打算优化训练方法的教练可以考虑用此方法训练运动员，以提高他们的成绩，所以这篇文章的受益者应是打算优化训练方法的教练。故选C项。 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 Today, the “I don’t care” attitude is becoming increasingly popular. Phrases like “I don’t care what anybody thinks” are often blindly used to express freedom and relief. ____16____ Understanding when to adopt this mindset can make a great difference. The “I don’t care” attitude can be quite beneficial when it motivates us to persevere, especially when others have given up. ____17____ J. K. Rowling, for instance, faced widespread doubt when proposing Harry Potter, but she kept polishing her novel without worrying about criticism. It was her persistence in crafting a magical world that eventually brought her success. As you can see in Rowling’s example, ignoring external doubts can actually help us stay focused on our own goals. ____18____ This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness (固执) or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly, focusing solely on their own desires while ignoring how interconnected people’s needs are. In the case of recent social media algorithm scandals (算法丑闻), tech giants repeatedly ignored internal researchers’ warnings about mental health harms to teenagers, claiming “not their department” Finally, it has caused uncontrollable rising anxiety and self-harm rates among young users. ____19____ Therefore, it’s crucial to reflect on why we adopt the “I don’t care” attitude. Are we motivated by confidence in our decisions, or are we simply avoiding challenges? ____20____ There are times when it’s crucial to care deeply about others, the truth, and personal growth. At other times, it’s equally important to remain indifferent to negativity, distractions, or unnecessary pressures. By carefully choosing when to adopt the “I don’t care” attitude, we can lead more fulfilling lives. A. The key is balance. B. Motivation comes first. C. Great achievements tend to come from ignoring doubters. D. When no one takes responsibility, it is everyone’s disaster. E. This mindset, however, can also have negative consequences. F. Others, however, are always concerned about everyone’s feelings. G. While this attitude can be liberating, it also comes with potential risks. 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨“我不在乎”心态的利弊，并倡导把握分寸平衡运用。 【16题详解】 由上文“Today, the “I don’t care” attitude is becoming increasingly popular. Phrases like “I don’t care what anybody thinks” are often blindly used to express freedom and relief. (如今，“我不在乎”的态度越来越流行。像“我不在乎别人怎么想”这样的话经常被盲目地用来表达自由和解脱。)”及下文“Understanding when to adopt this mindset can make a great difference. (理解何时采用这种心态会产生很大的影响。)”可知，上文讲这种态度流行且让人放松，下文提醒要理性看待，本空需转折点明态度虽洒脱但有潜在风险。G选项“虽然这种态度可以让人感到自由，但它也伴随着潜在的风险。”能承上启下，符合语境。 【17题详解】 由上文“The “I don’t care” attitude can be quite beneficial when it motivates us to persevere, especially when others have given up.(当“我不在乎”的态度激励我们坚持下去时，尤其是当别人已经放弃时，这种态度是非常有益的。)”及下文“J. K. Rowling, for instance, faced widespread doubt when proposing Harry Potter, but she kept polishing her novel without worrying about criticism. It was her persistence in crafting a magical world that eventually brought her success. (例如，J.K.罗琳在提出《哈利·波特》时面临着广泛的质疑，但她没有担心批评，继续打磨她的小说。正是她坚持创造一个魔法世界，最终给她带来了成功。)”可知，上文描述了“我不在乎”这种态度的益处，下文举了J.K.罗琳的例子，本空应进一步说明这种益处，即伟大的成就往往来自于忽视怀疑者，C选项“伟大的成就往往来自于忽视怀疑者。”能承上启下，符合语境。 【18题详解】 由第二段讲述这种心态的益处，以及下文“This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly.(人会因固执、推卸责任或自私产生不良行为。)”可知，下文介绍负面影响，此处语义转折，开始介绍这种心态的弊端。E选项“然而，这种心态也会带来负面后果。”能承上启下，符合语境。 【19题详解】 由上文“This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness (固执) or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly, focusing solely on their own desires while ignoring how interconnected people’s needs are. In the case of recent social media algorithm scandals (算法丑闻), tech giants repeatedly ignored internal researchers’ warnings about mental health harms to teenagers, claiming “not their department” Finally, it has caused uncontrollable rising anxiety and self-harm rates among young users.(这种情况发生在某人出于固执或想要推卸责任而行动，或者自私地行动，只关注自己的欲望，而忽视人们的需求是如何相互关联的。在最近的社交媒体算法丑闻中，科技巨头多次无视内部研究人员关于青少年心理健康危害的警告，声称“不是他们的部门”，最终，这导致了年轻用户中焦虑和自残率不可控制地上升。)”可知，上文描述了“我不在乎”这种态度的负面影响，本空应进一步说明这种影响的严重性，即当没有人承担责任时，就是每个人的灾难，D选项“当没有人承担责任时，就是每个人的灾难。”能承接上文，符合语境。 【20题详解】 由上文“Therefore, it’s crucial to reflect on why we adopt the “I don’t care” attitude. Are we motivated by confidence in our decisions, or are we simply avoiding challenges? (因此，反思我们为什么采取“我不在乎”的态度至关重要。我们是出于对自己决定的信心，还是仅仅在逃避挑战？)”及下文“There are times when it’s crucial to care deeply about others, the truth, and personal growth. At other times, it’s equally important to remain indifferent to negativity, distractions, or unnecessary pressures. (有时候，关心他人、真相和个人成长是至关重要的。在其他时候，对消极情绪、干扰或不必要的压力保持冷漠同样重要。)”可知，上文说明了反思我们为什么采取“我不在乎”的态度很重要，下文说明有时关心他人很重要，有时保持冷漠同样重要，本空应强调要把握分寸，说明关键是要平衡。A选项“关键是要平衡。”能承上启下，符合语境。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节；满分 30 分） 第一节 完形填空（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When I was a teenager, I worked part-time at a small community bakery run by a kind elderly couple.

However, it troubled me a lot, making my study life there full of twists. For me, a Chinese student, I made it a daily must to use chopsticks. When I ate in the school canteen every day, chopsticks helped me enjoy food happily. However, it was just then that the foreign classmates surrounded me immediately, looked at me with curiosity and whispered in confusion: “My goodness, the strange chopsticks!” At first, I would smile and briefly tell them how to use chopsticks. But with the thing staying unchanged, the stranger my classmates felt, the more uncomfortable I felt. It was the cultural difference that made it. Eventually, I doubted if I would give up using chopsticks and learn to use a knife and fork instead. Once we had a dinner, everyone sat in the restaurant. I couldn’t help reaching out for chopsticks. Mike, who was in the same group, saw this and shouted excitedly, “Look, the strange chopsticks!” As he spoke, he took a pair of chopsticks and awkwardly used them. But before the food was picked up, the chopsticks dropped on the floor. The chaotic laughing exploded while my face was flushed with embarrassment. Eating with my head lowered, I was in low spirits. I came to realize that in their opinion, chopsticks were just a strange tool, and my using chopsticks here simply became a laughing stock (笑柄). Nevertheless, I loved chopsticks carrying Chinese traditional culture from the bottom of my heart. As time went by, others kept misunderstanding chopsticks. I smiled casually, but deep down I worried that using them would never be accepted here. And I tried to avoid using chopsticks in public, even learned to use knife and fork in the following days. To my great surprise, the school expected everyone to prepare for the annually-held culture-sharing event. I was at a loss. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The culture-sharing event was approaching. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was well prepared to share the chopsticks culture in the event. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The culture-sharing event was approaching. It warmly welcomed the exchange students to take part. I imagined what a golden opportunity it was to show Chinese chopsticks culture! Hesitant and indecisive, I was deeply torn. At the thought of chopsticks carrying Chinese culture, I felt my indecisiveness disappearing all at once. “Why not remove my classmates’ misunderstanding and clear their confusion?” lingered in my mind. Subsequently, I was busying myself composing a speech on Chinese chopsticks. Time flying like an arrow, the event eventually kicked off. I was well prepared to share the chopsticks culture in the event. The enthusiastic classmates surrounding me tightly were listening with the intense interest twinkling in their eyes. Abruptly, Mike said “I misunderstood you. Now, I know chopsticks carry Chinese culture.” “Surely, chopsticks symbolize harmony, unity and coexistence,” responded I. Seeing everyone immersed in the ocean of happiness, I felt a wave of warmth coursing through me. I came to know that the culture-sharing event really meant promoting the cross-cultural communication and bridging the cultural divide. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了中国留学生在澳大利亚坚持使用筷子，却屡遭外国同学围观、嘲笑，被视为"奇怪工具"。一次晚餐上同学迈克尝试用筷子失败引来哄笑，作者深感尴尬，逐渐改用刀叉、回避公开使用筷子。然而学校突然宣布举办年度文化分享活动，作者在犹豫与纠结中，最终决定借此机会展示筷子背后的中国传统文化，在活动中消除误解、赢得理解。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者面对活动契机的心理转变，从犹豫纠结到下定决心借助活动科普筷子文化，进而积极筹备分享演讲稿的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者现场分享的场景、同学态度的转变、迈克的真诚致歉，以及作者最终领悟文化交流、打破隔阂的真谛。 2. 续写线索： 活动临近——内心纠结——坚定初心——积极筹备演讲——现场分享文化——同学改观致歉——领悟文化交流意义 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①消失：disappear/vanish ②专心筹备：busy oneself doing / prepare thoroughly 情绪类 ①热情的：enthusiastic/fervent ②温暖动容：feel a wave of warmth /feel heartwarming 【点睛】【高分句型1】Hesitant and indecisive, I was deeply torn.

B A Chinese motorcycle manufacturer (生产商), ZXMOTO, made history at the World Superbike Championship Portuguese round, which ended on March 29. The relatively new team secured victories in both races of the World Supersport category, marking the first time a Chinese motorcycle manufacturer has won at this global competition. Behind the breakthrough is Zhang Xue, whose journey from a workshop to the global racing stage has drawn widespread attention. Driven by his love and passion for motorcycles, Zhang, who was born in a small village in Huaihua, Central China’s Hunan province, began to learn to repair motorcycles at the age of 14. Spending a long time studying engines, he developed technical skills, bringing him a step closer to his racing dream. He worked hard and saved to buy a rickety second-hand motorbike to practice skills. In 2006, at just 19, Zhang did what many considered “crazy” — riding more than 100 kilometers in the rain for a chance to appear on television and show his riding skills. Although his initial attempt fell short, his persistence paid off, eventually earning him an opportunity with a professional racing team. He later worked as both a stunt (特技) rider and technician. However, years of high-intensity training led to injuries, while limitations in China’s motorcycle industry exposed a significant technological gap with global leaders. Realizing this, Zhang shifted his focus from racing to manufacturing. Between 2009 and 2012, he worked at a motorcycle factory in Zhejiang province, mastering the full vehicle development process. In 2013, he moved to Chongqing, a major center of China’s motorcycle industry, where he began his own journey of motorcycle manufacturing. In 2024, he founded ZXMOTO, aiming to develop fully independent engine technology. His efforts contributed to the launch of the 820 RR, a mass-produced civilian motorcycle powered by a domestically developed engine. Adapted for racing, the model delivered the team’s historic double victory in Portugal. 4. What does the underlined word “rickety” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fast and smooth. B. Old and shaky. C. New and expensive. D. Large and heavy. 5. What did Zhang Xue do to appear on TV? A. Cycle far in the wet. B. Compete for a prize. C. Work as a technician. D. Show off his riding skills. 6. Why did Zhang Xue found ZXMOTO? A. To expose an obvious technological gap. B. To introduce more advanced technologies. C. To master the vehicle development process. D. To develop engine technology of their own. 7. Which words best describe Zhang Xue? A. Flexible and generous. B. Adaptable and demanding. C. Organized and dynamic. D. Determined and hardworking. C Hustle culture (奋斗文化) is everywhere today. It encourages people to work constantly, stay positive, and avoid humor. Words like “Rise and Grind (起床，奋斗)” appear in advertisements and books. Companies like WeWork spread this lifestyle globally, offering not just offices but also apartments, gyms, and schools. This way of working has become mainstream, making it hard to escape. Many young people were raised to believe that hard work and good grades would lead to satisfying jobs. Instead, they often end up with insecure, meaningless work and heavy student debt. Pretending to love work becomes a way to protect themselves. Also, successful business leaders like Elon Musk argue that working 80 to 100 hours a week is necessary to change the world, even though data show long hours do not improve productivity or creativity. Some experts call hustle culture a trick because it mainly benefits managers, financiers, and owners. Workers sacrifice their health, relationships, and happiness. For example, one entrepreneur (企业家) gained over 40 pounds and lost personal connections while building his startup. He only felt free after rediscovering non-work activities like reading fiction or playing games. The extreme result of overwork is overtiredness, which is becoming common among young workers. Many companies use high-minded missions to make work seem noble. Spotify claims to unlock human creativity, and Dropbox talks about releasing the world’s creative energy. However, most jobs involve boring and pointless tasks. A professor points out that beautifying work has been tried for centuries, but it is often the other way around. In 17th-century England, workers just drank more because work failed to bring the promised satisfaction. To avoid the harms of hustle culture, workers should seek balance. Non-work activities like reading, movies, or games are not wasted time but necessary for well-being. Employees are also starting to realize their power. For instance, thousands of Google workers protested against unfair treatment. In short, work should not be the only measure of a person’s value. A healthy life includes rest, fun, and time away from the office. 8. What is the main feature of “hustle culture”? A. It encourages humor and relaxation. B. It leads people to escape their daily life. C. It focuses on new lifestyles in the offices. D. It values constant work and extreme positivity. 9. Why do many young people pretend to love their work? A. To pay off their debts. B. To keep their present jobs. C. To hold social identities. D. To improve their creativity. 10. What does the writer suggest workers do? A. Avoid all non-work activities. B. Join Google’s walkout immediately. C. Work longer hours to change the world. D. Seek a balance between their work and life. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. The Hustle Culture Trap B. Ways to Work 100 Hours a Week C. Young People’s Love for Their Work D. WeWork’s Successful Business Story D Running has long been considered one of the most efficient, convenient, and beneficial workouts. But some claim you get more out of the classic way of exercising with a new technique—or rather a 180-degree about-face. A study led by Dr. Gardner published in 2016 in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning backs this up. Researchers found that running backwards benefited athletes by improving their running economy; by running backwards over time the athletes became better runners overall. Unlike forward running, which generally uses the muscles in the front of the leg, running backwards primarily uses the muscles of the bottom chain, especially the calf（腓）muscles and glutes. Dr. Gardner adds, “Within just a minute or two of running backwards, you’ll start to feel the burning in your calves!” Frankie Ruiz, a longtime cross-country running coach and chief running officer explains that aside from moving in reverse, running backwards differs from regular running because it requires an entirely different combination of things to do correctly. Running backwards may be easier on the knees. “In a backwards movement, the set of muscles involved in absorbing the impact in the lower level are opposite. Your lower leg muscles are doing most of the absorbing, thereby placing less stress on the knees. Running backwards will recruit lesser utilized muscles resulting in muscle growth and toning,” says Ruiz. In addition to using different muscles than running forwards, running backwards enhances balance and posture, “as it forces you to stay in a more upright position,” Gardner says. As to claims that running backwards can burn more calories than forward running, Gardner says it’s not so black and white. Lots of factors (including heart rate, age, and others) affect how many calories you burn during any particular activity. “Different muscle pattern usage doesn’t necessarily burn more calories. It is the intensity（强度）that matters most,” she points out. Because running backwards causes more muscle activity than running forwards, however, Gardner notes it makes sense that one might burn more calories, but there’s not conclusive data on exact calorie consumption differences. 12.

However, it troubled me a lot, making my study life there full of twists. For me, a Chinese student, I made it a daily must to use chopsticks. When I ate in the school canteen every day, chopsticks helped me enjoy food happily. However, it was just then that the foreign classmates surrounded me immediately, looked at me with curiosity and whispered in confusion: “My goodness, the strange chopsticks!” At first, I would smile and briefly tell them how to use chopsticks. But with the thing staying unchanged, the stranger my classmates felt, the more uncomfortable I felt. It was the cultural difference that made it. Eventually, I doubted if I would give up using chopsticks and learn to use a knife and fork instead. Once we had a dinner, everyone sat in the restaurant. I couldn’t help reaching out for chopsticks. Mike, who was in the same group, saw this and shouted excitedly, “Look, the strange chopsticks!” As he spoke, he took a pair of chopsticks and awkwardly used them. But before the food was picked up, the chopsticks dropped on the floor. The chaotic laughing exploded while my face was flushed with embarrassment. Eating with my head lowered, I was in low spirits. I came to realize that in their opinion, chopsticks were just a strange tool, and my using chopsticks here simply became a laughing stock (笑柄). Nevertheless, I loved chopsticks carrying Chinese traditional culture from the bottom of my heart. As time went by, others kept misunderstanding chopsticks. I smiled casually, but deep down I worried that using them would never be accepted here. And I tried to avoid using chopsticks in public, even learned to use knife and fork in the following days. To my great surprise, the school expected everyone to prepare for the annually-held culture-sharing event. I was at a loss. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右; 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The culture-sharing event was approaching. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was well prepared to share the chopsticks culture in the event. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
