Go Places with Reading
Read Across America Day falls on March 2 each year. The event was started in 1998 by the National Education Association. One of its main goals is to introduce children to different books with characters they can relate to and worlds different from their own. Here are some ways you can take part in the celebration.
Host a book exchange
Ask friends or family members to bring a middle-grade book they would recommend. Lay the books out on a table and give everyone a chance to read the plot summaries. Try making the exchange extra fun with snacks, like gummy worms. Everyone can go home with one or more new books.
Read as a group
Plan a “read-in” where a group reads together. You can also ask a teacher to hold one in a classroom. Ask everyone to bring a book and read a short passage aloud. This is a great way to spark (引发) conversations and discover new books for your reading list.
Explore this year’s theme
The 2026 theme for Read Across America is kindness, so this is a great time to choose titles with that focus, such as The Invisible Boy by Trudy Ludwig.
Reflect on what you’ve read
You might enjoy keeping track of your reading in a journal or on a computer. Think about what stood out to you about the story, the setting, or the characters and reflect on what you’ve learned.

How can classic literary works stay lively in the digital age? A 17-year-old high school student from Chengdu, Sichuan, named Wu Yaduo, has found a wonderful way to answer this question.
Using her iPad and creative drawing skills, Wu turns stories from famous classics into hand-drawn animated (动画的) videos. These works include well-known books like A Dream of Red Mansions, Water Margin and The Peony Pavilion, as well as life stories of famous poets such as Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty. Her videos have won tens of thousands of followers online and got millions of views. Wu thinks these classics are timeless because they talk about human emotions and social themes that never go out of date.
However, she notices many students are not interested in these works just because they have to learn them for school. So Wu wants to bridge the gap between classics and modern life, making them more relatable and interesting for young people. Therefore, she usually chooses texts from her high school Chinese textbooks as the starting point.
In her creations, Wu combines text and sound cleverly. For example, one of her works about A Dream of Red Mansions was inspired by a sad song from an indie band (独立乐队). She drew the flourishing Daguanyuan, or the Grand View Garden, and the sad scene of the family’s downfall at the same time to create a strong emotional impact. Unlike traditional story-telling, her videos are full of bright colors and appealing visual effects, as she loves experimental movies and artworks.
Though Wu has received much support, she feels sorry that she can’t perfectly turn the images in her mind into drawings. But she still looks forward to creating more works to bring classics closer to daily life.
4. What do we know about Wu Yaduo’s animated videos of classic works?
A. She pays more attention to sound than visuals.
B. She depends on traditional tools to make the videos.
C. She takes band songs as her only creative inspirations.
D. She uses digital tools and drawing skills to show classics.
5. Why does Wu Yaduo use materials from Chinese textbooks in her works?
A. To choose the easiest content for animations.
B. To arouse students’ interest in classic literary works.
C. To show the importance of classics in school education.
D. To help students finish Chinese learning tasks more easily.
6. Which of the following best describes Wu Yaduo’s animated videos?
A. Creative and lively. B. Plain and thoughtful.
C. Serious and traditional. D. Popular and comic.
7. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Digital technology brings traditional literature into daily life.
B. A student gains online popularity by creating digital videos.
C. Many modern students show little interest in classic literature.
D. A student makes hand-drawn animations to link classics with youth.
C
Some are taking up knitting (编织). Others are growing flowers or going fishing. These days, such hobbies are no longer old-fashioned. For Gen Z has decided that the pastimes of retired people are rather pleasing.
According to Eventbrite, a global events marketplace, baking and bingo are on the rise. In Britain attendance at flower-arranging classes almost increased four times between 2023 and 2025; in America there were two and a half times more puzzle competitions.
“Grannycore” — as youngsters call the trend as the traditional art taste — is not limited to entertainment. Gen Zers respect their elders’ taste in home decoration and fashion. Some are even holidaying like old people: Gen Z and millennials (千禧一代) are just as enthusiastic about cruises (游轮度假) as retirees, according to the Cruise Lines International Association. On TikTok youngsters were against the idea that “cruises are for old people” and say they are “the most convenient way to travel”
Why do the young seem so old at heart? Gen Z “really embraces the old things” and wants to experience things “they never got to experience”, says Rudi Greenberg, Eventbrite’s head of management and trends. Psychologists call such desiring “anemoia”: in an era of flashy screens and endless apps, youngsters look through rose-colored glasses at such dull things as repairing an old pair of socks, or meeting weekly to craft or embroider (刺绣).
Martina Vintaloro, the founder of London Creative Gals, notes that 90% of attendees come alone to meet “like-minded girls”. On a recent mid-week evening they were longing to get off their phones, gathered to paint pottery, many slowly enjoying soft drinks not wines.
In such environments, socialising can feel “slower, a little more grounded”, argues Mr Greenberg, perhaps a reminder of “conversations with your Grandma”. The hobbies can also improve well-being: “Happiness from One Stitch (针) at a Time”, a course run by psychologists, praises the healing advantages of knitting. As one fan of the old-timey trend recently put it: “Grandmas’ ideas actually make sense.”
8. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. “Grannycore” has become a worldwide fashion trend.
B. Statistical evidence proves the rise of old-style hobbies.
C. Eventbrite is committed to promoting traditional pastimes.
D. British and American youth share the same hobby preferences.
9. What does the underlined word “anemoia” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. A desire for past experiences one has never had.
B. A protest to modern digital technology.
C. A love for traditional handmade activities.
D. A preference for elders’ decoration and fashion.
10. Why do members of London Creative Gals enjoy craft gatherings?
A. To keep up with the latest “Grannycore” fashion.
B. To learn professional crafting skills from experts.
C. To completely stay away from social media pressures.
D. To make like-minded friends and seek mental relaxation.
11. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Cruises are less appealing to retirees than Gen Z.
B. Gen Z has given up using digital devices entirely.
C. Traditional hobbies help promote Gen Z’s mental well-being.
D. “Grannycore” only covers entertainment and fashion fields.
D
Migraines are a kind of headache that affect more than 1 billion people worldwide. About 30% of people with migraines do not get better with today’s treatments. Now, scientists are revisiting a long-forgotten idea that might lead to new treatments.
In the 1990s, researchers believed that a chemical called substance P played a key role in causing migraines. However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years.
Recently, a research team led by Messoud Ashina at the University of Copenhagen decided to take another look. They found that when substance P was given to people, it caused headaches and changes in blood vessels (血管) linked to migraines. Their results support the idea that substance P in fact plays a role.
So why did the earlier drugs fail? According to scientists, those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. This means a broader approach might be more effective. Scientists decided to revisit strategies that target substance P.
Today, they can produce monoclonal antibodies — a type of drug that can stop specific molecules (分子) directly. These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people.
Now, researchers are also testing drugs that target other molecules, including substance P and another one called PACAP, whose early results show promise.
As Peter Goadsby, a migraine expert, puts it, “Finding the next thing that will benefit the hundreds of millions of people who are not well treated by today’s method remains an important challenge.” Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief.
12. Why did researchers give up on substance P in 1990s?
A. Five drugs targeting it showed no clear benefit.
B. The chemical was found to be unrelated to migraines.
C. A new treatment for migraines proved more effective.
D. The research team led by Ashina failed to find evidence.
13. What did the research team find about the earlier drugs?
A. They resulted in serious vessel damage.
B. They worked on the wrong target molecules.
C. They produced the opposite effect.
D. They partly stopped the action of substance P.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The failure of previous studies on CGRP.
B. The production process of CGRP-targeting drugs.
C. The serious side effects of monoclonal antibodies.
D. The effectiveness and limitation of CGRP-targeting drugs.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. History of Migraine Research B. New Hope for Treating Migraines
C. Hard Struggle against substance P D. Limits of Current Migraine Drugs

B. Practice quiet writing.

Some are taking up knitting (编织). Others are growing flowers or going fishing. These days, such hobbies are no longer old-fashioned. For Gen Z has decided that the pastimes of retired people are rather pleasing.
According to Eventbrite, a global events marketplace, baking and bingo are on the rise. In Britain attendance at flower-arranging classes almost increased four times between 2023 and 2025; in America there were two and a half times more puzzle competitions.
“Grannycore” — as youngsters call the trend as the traditional art taste — is not limited to entertainment. Gen Zers respect their elders’ taste in home decoration and fashion. Some are even holidaying like old people: Gen Z and millennials (千禧一代) are just as enthusiastic about cruises (游轮度假) as retirees, according to the Cruise Lines International Association. On TikTok youngsters were against the idea that “cruises are for old people” and say they are “the most convenient way to travel”
Why do the young seem so old at heart? Gen Z “really embraces the old things” and wants to experience things “they never got to experience”, says Rudi Greenberg, Eventbrite’s head of management and trends. Psychologists call such desiring “anemoia”: in an era of flashy screens and endless apps, youngsters look through rose-colored glasses at such dull things as repairing an old pair of socks, or meeting weekly to craft or embroider (刺绣).
Martina Vintaloro, the founder of London Creative Gals, notes that 90% of attendees come alone to meet “like-minded girls”. On a recent mid-week evening they were longing to get off their phones, gathered to paint pottery, many slowly enjoying soft drinks not wines.
In such environments, socialising can feel “slower, a little more grounded”, argues Mr Greenberg, perhaps a reminder of “conversations with your Grandma”. The hobbies can also improve well-being: “Happiness from One Stitch (针) at a Time”, a course run by psychologists, praises the healing advantages of knitting. As one fan of the old-timey trend recently put it: “Grandmas’ ideas actually make sense.”
8. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
A. “Grannycore” has become a worldwide fashion trend.
B. Statistical evidence proves the rise of old-style hobbies.
C. Eventbrite is committed to promoting traditional pastimes.
D. British and American youth share the same hobby preferences.
9. What does the underlined word “anemoia” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. A desire for past experiences one has never had.
B. A protest to modern digital technology.
C. A love for traditional handmade activities.
D. A preference for elders’ decoration and fashion.
10. Why do members of London Creative Gals enjoy craft gatherings?
A. To keep up with the latest “Grannycore” fashion.
B. To learn professional crafting skills from experts.
C. To completely stay away from social media pressures.
D. To make like-minded friends and seek mental relaxation.
11. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Cruises are less appealing to retirees than Gen Z.
B. Gen Z has given up using digital devices entirely.
C. Traditional hobbies help promote Gen Z’s mental well-being.
D. “Grannycore” only covers entertainment and fashion fields.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了当下Z世代流行“奶奶风”,热衷老一辈的传统休闲爱好,并分析了这一潮流兴起的原因及其带来的积极影响。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“According to Eventbrite, a global events marketplace, baking and bingo are on the rise. In Britain attendance at flower-arranging classes almost increased four times between 2023 and 2025; in America there were two and a half times more puzzle competitions.(据全球活动市场Eventbrite称,烘焙和宾果游戏正在兴起。在英国,插花班的参与人数在2023年至2025年间几乎增长了四倍;在美国,拼图比赛的数量增加了两倍半。)”可知,本段列举多项数据,证明传统老式爱好正在兴起。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Gen Z “really embraces the old things” and wants to experience things “they never got to experience”, says Rudi Greenberg, Eventbrite’s head of management and trends. Psychologists call such desiring “ anemoia” (Eventbrite的管理与趋势主管Rudi Greenberg说,Z世代“真的拥抱旧事物”,想要体验“他们从未体验过”的东西。心理学家称这种欲望为“anemoia”。)”可知,anemoia指渴望拥有自己从未有过的过往体验。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“90% of attendees come alone to meet “like-minded girls”. On a recent mid-week evening they were longing to get off their phones, gathered to paint pottery, many slowly enjoying soft drinks not wines.(90%的参与者都是单独来找“志同道合的女孩”。在最近的一个周中晚上,他们渴望放下手机,聚在一起画陶器,许多人慢慢地喝着软饮料,而不是葡萄酒。)”可知,她们参加手工聚会是为了结交志趣相投的朋友,并获得精神放松。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The hobbies can also improve well-being: “Happiness from One Stitch at a Time”, a course run by psychologists, praises the healing advantages of knitting. (这些爱好还可以提高幸福感:心理学家开设的“一次一针的快乐”课程,赞扬了编织的治疗优势。)”可推知,传统爱好有助于促进年轻人的心理健康。

Migraines are a kind of headache that affect more than 1 billion people worldwide. About 30% of people with migraines do not get better with today’s treatments. Now, scientists are revisiting a long-forgotten idea that might lead to new treatments.
In the 1990s, researchers believed that a chemical called substance P played a key role in causing migraines. However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years.
Recently, a research team led by Messoud Ashina at the University of Copenhagen decided to take another look. They found that when substance P was given to people, it caused headaches and changes in blood vessels (血管) linked to migraines. Their results support the idea that substance P in fact plays a role.
So why did the earlier drugs fail? According to scientists, those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. This means a broader approach might be more effective. Scientists decided to revisit strategies that target substance P.
Today, they can produce monoclonal antibodies — a type of drug that can stop specific molecules (分子) directly. These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people.
Now, researchers are also testing drugs that target other molecules, including substance P and another one called PACAP, whose early results show promise.
As Peter Goadsby, a migraine expert, puts it, “Finding the next thing that will benefit the hundreds of millions of people who are not well treated by today’s method remains an important challenge.” Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief.
12. Why did researchers give up on substance P in 1990s?
A. Five drugs targeting it showed no clear benefit.
B. The chemical was found to be unrelated to migraines.
C. A new treatment for migraines proved more effective.
D. The research team led by Ashina failed to find evidence.
13. What did the research team find about the earlier drugs?
A. They resulted in serious vessel damage.
B. They worked on the wrong target molecules.
C. They produced the opposite effect.
D. They partly stopped the action of substance P.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The failure of previous studies on CGRP.
B. The production process of CGRP-targeting drugs.
C. The serious side effects of monoclonal antibodies.
D. The effectiveness and limitation of CGRP-targeting drugs.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. History of Migraine Research B. New Hope for Treating Migraines
C. Hard Struggle against substance P D. Limits of Current Migraine Drugs
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了偏头痛在全球的患病现状,围绕P物质展开相关研究回顾,分析了早期靶向药物失败的原因,同时介绍了现有 CGRP类药物的成效与不足,并指出靶向多种分子的新药物研究为偏头痛治疗带来了新希望。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years. (然而,五种针对P物质的实验药物未能达到预期效果。因此,这一想法被搁置了25年。)”可知,研究者放弃P物质是因为五种靶向药物没有显示出明确疗效。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. (那些药物只作用于P物质的一部分,而P物质实际上通过多条通路发挥作用。)”可知,早期药物只部分阻断了P物质的作用,而非完全抑制。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people. (这些疗法已被证实能够对抗另一种与偏头痛相关的分子——CGRP。这种药物于 2018 年首次推出,改变了偏头痛的治疗方式。对于许多患者而言,它能将偏头痛发作的天数减少一半。然而,仍有高达 40%的人对该药物无效。)”可知,本段既讲了CGRP靶向药物的有效性,也讲了其局限性。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。全文围绕科学家重新审视P物质理论、开发新疗法展开,结尾“Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief. (科学家们希望同时阻断多条通路能帮助更多患者缓解症状。)”点明了文章核心——为偏头痛治疗带来新希望,B选项“治疗偏头痛的新希望”符合文章大意,适合作标题。

Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle — as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway.
Print out a triple-spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision. ____19____ As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their drafts and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text to triple-space. ____20____
A. Try non-stop writing.
B. Practice quiet writing.
C. Let your pen follow the waves of thought.

考查非谓语动词。句意:一些为期4至12周的短期对照研究确实发现,用糖替代品替代糖会导致体重增加较少。此处作主语,用动名词形式replacing。
【42题详解】
考查连词。句意:但许多大型长期观察性研究发现,情况恰恰相反:摄入更多代糖的人最终比摄入最少的人体重增加更多;其他研究表明,相比不摄入代糖的人,摄入更多的人患上心脏病、糖尿病和癌症的几率也更高。前文提到短期研究发现用替代品替代糖可减少体重增加,后文指出长期研究有相反结果,前后为转折关系,应用连词but连接;句首单词首字母大写。
