Lu spoke out against the Song government’s weak policy (政策) and called for fighting back. However, he was downgraded because of this.
Although disappointed with government work, Lu found joy in food. While serving in the Shu region, he wrote over 100 poems about cooking and growing vegetables. Many believe that his secret to long life was his healthy eating habits. He even wrote a poem about the benefits of porridge.
Lu also found comfort in his cat friends. He wrote funny poems to his cats, showing how cute they are and how they gave him warmth on cold days. That’s what made him such a true cat lover!

Looking up, I find the moon bright; Bowing, in homesickness I’m drowned.

After years of quiet observation, Jane recorded clear proof: wild chimps could pick tree branches, tear leaves off and use sticks to catch termites. Her discovery shocked global biology circles and changed people’s understanding of animal intelligence.
Jane lived in simple small tents in the forest for over thirty years. She faced heavy rain, dangerous wild beasts and lonely days. Many times she wanted to return to cities, but her love for chimps kept her staying. She named every chimp group and built close trust with these wild creatures.

Lei Diansheng is a famous Chinese explorer and environmental protector. Born in 1963 in a small village near Harbin, he is called “the modern Xu Xiake” for his great journey.
Before starting his trip, he spent 10 years preparing—he did daily long runs to build up his strength and read many books on wild survival to learn how to deal with dangers.
From 1998 to 2008, Lei spent 10 years walking across China. He walked about 81,000 kilometers almost twice around the equator (赤道)! During the trip, he wore out 52 pairs of shoes and lost 19 toenails. Once, he even had to eat snake meat to stay alive in the Shennongjia Forest. He faced many dangers, like mudslides and wolf attacks, but he never gave up. In 2008, he made history by walking alone through the Lop Nur Desert (罗布泊) a dry, dangerous place. He walked 1,100 kilometers in 31 days and became the first person to do that alone.
Lei didn’t just walk for fun. He visited all 56 ethnic groups (民族) in China, took 40,000 photos and wrote 3.2 million words in his notes. These notes became a “living record” of Chinese culture and nature. He also helped others during his trip—he gave money to poor students and joined in flood rescue work in Hunan Province.
Now, Lei still works for nature and education. He leads teams to study the environment, like protecting the source of the Yangtze River. Last year, he took a group of scientists to collect water samples there. He also works with traditional artists to turn his travel notes into art, so more people can learn about environmental protection. For students, he organizes hiking camps in Heilongjiang’s forests, where kids learn to identify wild plants and understand local ethnic cultures.
Lei’s story tells us: True adventure is not just about walking far. It’s about loving our land and protecting it.

If you were asked to introduce Lu You, how would you describe him? A famous poet who loved his country? But do you know that Lu was also a “slasher (斜杠青年)” of his time? If he had a social media profile (个人资料), it might read like this: poet/ politician (政治家) / foodie/ cat lover.
Born in the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279), he was one of the most productive poets in Chinese history. About 9, 300 of his poems are still around today. Many of these are filled with a wish to protect his homeland, making him a famous patriotic (爱国的) poet.
As a politician, Lu tried his best to offer advice to the government. At that time, the Southern Song Dynasty was often attacked by the northern Jin Dynasty (1115-1234). Lu spoke out against the Song government’s weak policy (政策) and called for fighting back. However, he was downgraded because of this.
Although disappointed with government work, Lu found joy in food. While serving in the Shu region, he wrote over 100 poems about cooking and growing vegetables. Many believe that his secret to long life was his healthy eating habits. He even wrote a poem about the benefits of porridge.
Lu also found comfort in his cat friends. He wrote funny poems to his cats, showing how cute they are and how they gave him warmth on cold days. That’s what made him such a true cat lover!
As a man of a great national dream and someone who loved life’s small joys, Lu showed us that a full life can be built with many “slashes”!

【导语】本文从诗人、政治家、美食家和爱猫人士四个角度介绍了陆游的多重身份,说明一个充实的人生可以拥有多个“斜杠”。
1.文章第一段“But do you know that Lu was also a ‘slasher (斜杠青年)’ of his time?”以及最后一段“Lu showed us that a full life can be built with many ‘slashes’!”指出,作者主要想强调陆游多重身份的特点,即“斜杠青年”。虽然他也是诗人、政治家和美食家,但“slasher”是对他多重身份最全面的概括。
2.划线词后文“About 9, 300 of his poems are still around today.”(大约9300首诗流传至今)表明,陆游创作的诗歌数量非常多。productive意为“多产的”,与fruitful(富有成效的/多产的)意思相近。
3.代词“this”通常指代前文提到的内容。前一句提到“Lu spoke out against the Song government's weak policy (政策) and called for fighting back.”(陆游公开反对南宋政府的软弱政策并呼吁反击)。因此,“this”指代的是他反对政府政策的行为/观点,这导致了他被降职。选项B“他的思想与宋朝政府相悖。”符合文意。
4.文章第四段“He even wrote a poem about the benefits of porridge.”(他甚至写了一首关于粥的好处的诗)以及“Many believe that his secret to long life was his healthy eating habits.”说明,陆游写过关于粥和长寿的诗。选项B的内容提到了“secret to a long life”和“eat plain porridge”,与文章内容相符。选项A是徐志摩的诗,选项C是李白的诗,选项D是苏轼的词。
5.文章最后一段“As a man of a great national dream and someone who loved life’s small joys, Lu showed us that a full life can be built with many ‘slashes’!”指出,陆游的人生哲学是既有家国大梦想(Dream big),又热爱生活的小确幸(enjoy small)。选项C完美概括了这一点。

In March 1950, Hua left his job at Princeton University’s Institute for Advanced Study and went back to China. At that time, few people knew about computers, but Hua already saw their great use for scientific progress. The next year, he became the director of the Institute of Mathematics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院) and set up China’s first computer research group. Li said Hua’s story moved him a lot. “Hua was not just a mathematician. He had great ideas and was very brave, especially for his time.”
When talking about the influence of Return on young people, Li said, “I hope teenagers can learn more about history from this documentary and be encouraged by the spirit of these scientists.

Lei Diansheng is a famous Chinese explorer and environmental protector. Born in 1963 in a small village near Harbin, he is called “the modern Xu Xiake” for his great journey.
Before starting his trip, he spent 10 years preparing—he did daily long runs to build up his strength and read many books on wild survival to learn how to deal with dangers.
From 1998 to 2008, Lei spent 10 years walking across China. He walked about 81,000 kilometers almost twice around the equator (赤道)! During the trip, he wore out 52 pairs of shoes and lost 19 toenails. Once, he even had to eat snake meat to stay alive in the Shennongjia Forest. He faced many dangers, like mudslides and wolf attacks, but he never gave up. In 2008, he made history by walking alone through the Lop Nur Desert (罗布泊) a dry, dangerous place. He walked 1,100 kilometers in 31 days and became the first person to do that alone.
Lei didn’t just walk for fun. He visited all 56 ethnic groups (民族) in China, took 40,000 photos and wrote 3.2 million words in his notes. These notes became a “living record” of Chinese culture and nature. He also helped others during his trip—he gave money to poor students and joined in flood rescue work in Hunan Province.
Now, Lei still works for nature and education. He leads teams to study the environment, like protecting the source of the Yangtze River. Last year, he took a group of scientists to collect water samples there. He also works with traditional artists to turn his travel notes into art, so more people can learn about environmental protection. For students, he organizes hiking camps in Heilongjiang’s forests, where kids learn to identify wild plants and understand local ethnic cultures.
Lei’s story tells us: True adventure is not just about walking far. It’s about loving our land and protecting it.

Zhao Yang, general of Chu, defeated the state of Wei. After the big winning, all the soldiers cheered for their general and believed that they would be unbeatable. He planned to lead his army to attack Qi. Afraid of Zhao Yang’s powerful army, the King of Qi asked his prime minister Chen Zhen for help. Chen Zhen agreed to stop Zhao Yang.
Chen Zhen rode fast to Zhao Yang’s camp. “Congratulations, General!” Chen Zhen said. “You have just beaten Wei and won eight cities. You must be the hero of Chu now.” Zhao Yang laughed and invited Chen Zhen in to have a secret conversation. Later Chen Zhen asked, “What is the highest reward (回报) for a great general in Chu?” Zhao Yang answered without thinking, “The highest position is prime minister.” Chen Zhen asked again, “Is there any position higher than prime minister in Chu?” Zhao Yang shook his head, “No. Only the king is higher.”
Then Chen Zhen told him a story. After that, Chen Zhen told Zhao Yang, “You are already a prime minister, the highest position for a minister. If you win in the attack against Qi, you get nothing new. If you lose, you will lose everything.” Zhao Yang thought it was true and decided to stop.

【导语】本文改编自《战国策》,讲述了楚国将军昭阳击败魏国后计划攻打齐国,齐国派丞相陈轸前去游说,陈轸点出昭阳已经身居人臣最高位,攻齐取胜也无法得到更高的封赏,战败则会失去现有一切,最终成功说服昭阳放弃进攻的故事。
1.原文“After the big winning, all the soldiers cheered for their general and believed that they would be unbeatable.”体现了士兵们的自信。
2.整个第二段旨在讲陈轸通过对话和讲故事,成功说服了赵阳放弃攻打齐国。整个过程没有武力,只用语言就达成了目的,这体现了他高超的语言艺术/游说技巧。
3.原文“Zhao Yang thought it was true and decided to stop.”说明赵阳同意了陈轸的观点。
4.原文“You are already a prime minister, the highest position for a minister. If you win in the attack against Qi, you get nothing new. If you lose, you will lose everything.”指出赵阳已经做到了臣子的最高职位,再去攻打齐国,就算赢了,也没法再升官;但如果输了,现有的一切都会失去——这就是“多此一举,反而坏事”,和“画蛇添足”的寓意完全吻合。
