Cai Lei — The Icebreaker Fighting ALS with AI
In July 2026, Cai Lei was honored with the “Annual AI Special Contribution Award” at the China AI Gala. Six years ago, at the age of 41, he was diagnosed with ALS, a disease that usually gives patients only three to five years to live. Doctors estimated he had little time left, but Cai decided to fight back.
“ALS can freeze my body, 1 AI will never freeze,” Cai said through an AI-replicated voice at the gala. He has been unable to move his limbs or speak for years, but he has never 2 hope.
Cai launched what he calls his “last startup” — dedicating himself to finding a cure for ALS. He built a platform, connected with patients, and pushed forward drug development. With the help of AI, his team created an “AI research brain” that could 3 nearly 40,000 ALS research papers from the past 200 years. This AI system has increased drug screening efficiency by dozens or even hundreds of times.
It was not easy 4 Cai to continue his work while his body was failing him. But he believed he could make a 5 . Thanks to the AI-powered research, a new drug called RAG-17 has shown remarkable results. A 29-year-old ALS patient who used to 6 on a wheelchair can now stand and walk again.
Cai’s story has inspired millions. It is truly inspiring 7 him to turn a death sentence into a mission to save others. He once said, “I hope more people will 8 this fight. Together, we can put ALS into the history books.”
Cai’s courage and determination remind us that the human spirit is stronger than any disease. He proves that with technology and 9 , even the most impossible challenges can be 10 .

The year 2025 was special for China’s world of maths. It’s all because of one great woman—Wang Hong.
Wang was born in 1991 in Guilin. Her parents were both middle school teachers. She showed an unusual talent for maths at an early age. ⑴ When she was just five years old, she already finished first-grade maths and went to second grade directly.
Some people think talent makes life easy. But Wang’s path was far from smooth. In middle school, her grades were not good at first—she was not in the top 100. But she didn’t give up. With great passion for maths, she worked harder, and later became one of the top ten students in her grade. At the age of sixteen, she entered Peking University and learned more about maths. ⑵

Then I remembered how hard I had learned maths before. ⑶ I only doubted myself because my classmates were all very smart. ” Wang became confident again and returned to maths. She studied even harder and got her PhD at MIT (美国麻省理工学院).
This past February, Wang did something really amazing. She solved a century-old maths problem—the Kakeya conjecture (挂谷猜想). ⑷ Now, Wang is a professor at two great universities.
With talent, hard work, and passion, Wang Hong is living a future bigger than her dreams.

二、任务型阅读
(2026黑龙江齐齐哈尔中考)
Among the most famous Chinese paintings, there’s a very long painting of horses called One Hundred Horses. To many people’s surprise, it was painted not by a Chinese artist but an Italian named Giuseppe Castiglione. He was better known in China by his Chinese name, Lang Shining.
In 1688, he was born in Milan, Italy. When he traveled to Beijing in 1715, he was invited to work as an artist. By then, he had already made a name for himself because of his special style putting Western and Chinese painting methods together. The things in the paintings appeared lifelike.
In 1724, Emperor Yongzheng asked him to paint One Hundred Horses on silk nearly eight meters long. It was no easy task. Once the brush is placed, there is no going back. He first practised on paper over and over again. After carefully planning, he copied the best piece onto silk, little by little. It took him four years to finish the painting. The one hundred horses are in different poses. Some stand quietly, while others run, walk, drink water or even fight.
The painting’s large size alone is enough to shock the viewers. A closer look, however, may surprise you further. He skillfully painted the trees, horses and people, yet they were all painted with a Chinese brush. In One Hundred Horses, humans and nature live side by side in peace, and so do Eastern and Western aesthetics (美学). Perhaps this perfect balance is why Emperor Qianlong liked it so much.
根据语篇内容,回答问题。(1-3题答案不超过5个词,4题答案不超过10个词,5题答案不超过20个词。)
5.Who painted One Hundred Horses?

【导语】本文主要讲述了渐冻症患者蔡磊利用人工智能技术对抗疾病,研发药物帮助他人,其勇气和精神激励了无数人的感人故事。
【详解】1.句意:渐冻症可以冻结我的身体,但是AI永远不会被冻结。
根据语境,空前表述渐冻症会让身体失去活动能力,空后表述AI永远不会被冻结,前后构成转折逻辑,but表转折符合语境。and“和、并且”表并列,so“所以”表因果,or“或者、否则”均不符合此处转折逻辑。
2.句意:多年来他四肢无法活动、不能说话,但是他从未放弃希望。
结合上下文,蔡磊始终坚持抗争,没有放弃希望,given up意为 “放弃”,符合语境。picked up“捡起;学会”,put up“张贴;搭建”,made up“编造;组成” 均不符合语义。
3.句意:他的团队打造出“AI科研大脑”,能够处理过去200年间近4万篇渐冻症研究论文。
根据后文这个AI系统将药物筛选效率提升了数十甚至上百倍的提示,可知AI的功能是对海量研究论文进行分析处理,process意为“处理”符合语境。write“撰写”,ignore“忽视”,forget“遗忘”均不符合AI赋能科研的场景。
4.句意:对蔡磊而言,在身体日渐衰竭的同时继续开展工作绝非易事。
固定句型It is+adj.+for sb. to do sth.,表示“对某人来说做某事是……的”,介词选用for。of、to、with均不能匹配该句型结构。
5.句意:但是他相信自己可以有所作为。
固定搭配make a difference意为“有影响,有所作为”,符合蔡磊坚持科研、想要取得突破的语境,mistake“错误”,decision“决定”,promise“承诺”均无法构成符合此处语境的合理搭配。
6.句意:一名曾经依靠轮椅生活的29岁渐冻症患者,如今可以重新站立行走。
固定搭配depend on意为“依靠”,depend on a wheelchair表示“依靠轮椅出行”,符合语境。take on“承担、呈现”,put on“穿上、上演”,turn on“打开”均不符合语义逻辑。
7.句意:他将一纸死亡判决转化为拯救他人的使命,这件事真的非常鼓舞人心。
固定句型It is+adj.+of sb. to do sth.,用于评价人物品质,介词使用 of。for“对于”,to“朝向”,with“和”均不符合该形容词描述人物属性的句式搭配规则。
8.句意:我希望更多人加入这场战斗。
根据后文“一起努力,终结渐冻症”可知,蔡磊呼吁大家参与这场对抗疾病的战斗,join意为“加入”,符合语境。avoid“躲避”,watch“观看”,stop“停止”语义相反。
9.句意:他证明了凭借科技和意志力,即使是最不可能完成的挑战也能被攻克。
全文体现蔡磊顽强抗争的精神,willpower意为“意志力”,契合文章主旨。luck“运气”,wealth“财富”,fame“名声”均不符合语境。
10.句意:即使是最不可能完成的挑战也能被攻克。
此处指看似不可能的挑战最终被攻克、战胜,overcome意为“克服、战胜”符合语境。overlooked“忽视”,overdone“做得过度”,overused“过度使用”均不符合语义逻辑。
二、阅读理解

16 winners from 12 countries were awarded at the 18th Special Book Awards of China held in Beijing in June 2025. Aleksei Rodionov, professor of Chinese studies at Saint Petersburg University, is a winner of the award in translating.
This award is the highest national award. It is presented each year to foreign authors, translators, and publishers for their great contributions in promoting Chinese publications and cultural exchanges between China and other countries. “As a sinologist (汉学家) and translator of Chinese literature, this award will encourage me to do more and do better in promoting cultural exchanges between Russia and China,” said the professor.
Rodionov said that he feels a special connection with China when he thought about his journey in Chinese literature.

To the professor, translation is, in fact, a very enjoyable task. “Translating Chinese literary (文学的) works is my lifelong calling. It brings me joy and gives my life a deeper sense of purpose,” he said.
For decades, Rodionov has long devoted himself to translating and researching Chinese literature, having translated 26 works by Chinese authors such as Lao She.
“Literary works are an important gateway to understanding Chinese culture and the Chinese people. They are important bridges that connect our hearts and minds. In Russia, authors like Mo Yan and Yu Hua are very popular,” said the professor.

二、任务型阅读
(2026黑龙江齐齐哈尔中考)
Among the most famous Chinese paintings, there’s a very long painting of horses called One Hundred Horses. To many people’s surprise, it was painted not by a Chinese artist but an Italian named Giuseppe Castiglione. He was better known in China by his Chinese name, Lang Shining.
In 1688, he was born in Milan, Italy. When he traveled to Beijing in 1715, he was invited to work as an artist. By then, he had already made a name for himself because of his special style putting Western and Chinese painting methods together. The things in the paintings appeared lifelike.
In 1724, Emperor Yongzheng asked him to paint One Hundred Horses on silk nearly eight meters long. It was no easy task. Once the brush is placed, there is no going back. He first practised on paper over and over again. After carefully planning, he copied the best piece onto silk, little by little. It took him four years to finish the painting. The one hundred horses are in different poses. Some stand quietly, while others run, walk, drink water or even fight.
The painting’s large size alone is enough to shock the viewers. A closer look, however, may surprise you further. He skillfully painted the trees, horses and people, yet they were all painted with a Chinese brush. In One Hundred Horses, humans and nature live side by side in peace, and so do Eastern and Western aesthetics (美学). Perhaps this perfect balance is why Emperor Qianlong liked it so much.
