A
The Pythagorean theorem(勾股定理), a2+b2=c2, is a big maths idea. It tells us that in a right triangle, the square of the longest side is the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
In school, the Pythagorean theorem allows students to work out the length of the third side of a right triangle when the other two are known. In real life, it helps planes find the shortest way to fly. People who design buildings use this maths idea too.
When this idea first appeared, many people tried to show it was true in different ways, and there were about 370 different ways to do this. In 1927, a mathematician(数学家) named Elisha Loomis said that proving this with trigonometry(三角学) was impossible. His reason was that you can’t prove an idea is true by using the idea itself. However, a mathematician named Jason Zimba first proved it successfully in 2009. And the second proof was published six years later by mathematician Nuno Luzia. In 2022, two high school students, Ne’Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson, also found a way to prove the Pythagorean theorem based on trigonometry.
In March 2023, the two showed their work at a maths meeting. Publishing their findings was challenging, and they had to learn new skills. Encouraged by Zimba’s proof, they developed more proofs. One of them includes filling a large triangle with smaller triangles and using maths to find side lengths. This amazed other mathematicians. Jackson and Johnson also left five proofs for others to explore, which give a starting point for more research. Their journey shows that exploring maths is timeless and exciting, and that the new way of thinking encourages more young mathematicians to be creative and challenges the usual rules.
( )1. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. Showing how to find the longest side of a triangle.
B. Describing how the Pythagorean theorem is used in study and life.
C. Explaining why the Pythagorean theorem is difficult to prove.
D. Explaining why buildings are designed with the Pythagorean theorem.
( )2. Why did Elisha Loomis think it was impossible to prove the theorem with trigonometry?
A. Because trigonometry is only for dealing with angles.
B. Because trigonometry was not well developed at that time.
C. Because mathematicians didn’t know much about triangles.
D. Because he believed that the same idea shouldn’t be used to prove itself.
( )3. Who first proved the Pythagorean theorem with trigonometry?
A. Jason Zimba. B. Calcea Johnson. C. Nuno Luzia. D. Ne’Kiya Jackson.
( )4. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. Sharing their ideas at a maths meeting. B. Publishing their findings successfully.
C. The new way they used to prove the theorem. D. Dividing a larger triangle into smaller ones.
( )5. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. New ways of thinking can lead to further development in maths.
B. The theorem has already been proved in the best way.
C. Exploring maths is less interesting than other school subjects.
D. Young people prefer learning skills to exploring new ideas.

On Mount Tai in Shandong Province, a litter-collecting robot dog has recently been broadcasting(播报) voice messages to remind tourists to protect the environment.
“By using the latest technology and learning from the experience of other scenic areas(景区), we believe the most useful solution is robot dog transport,” said a staff member from the Taishan Cultural Tourism Group’s property company.
Since July, the company has worked with a number of factories, finally choosing Hangzhou-based Unitree Robotics to do litter transport tests together in the Mount Tai scenic area.

After three days of testing, the robot dog was able to get used to over 80 percent of the road conditions in the scenic area.
The successful climb of the robot dog shows its usefulness under difficult conditions, providing valuable experience and data support for future uses in other areas. “We are still in the testing stage, and we will further improve the design to start the next round of testing as soon as possible,” Jin said.

A. It draws a lot of people to Mount Tai.

The creator of “pastoral poetry”: Tao Yuanming
Tao Yuanming, who lived during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, is seen as the creator of“pastoral poetry”. This is an important genre(流派) in Chinese poetry that is mainly about the beauty of the countryside.
Tao spent most of his life in the countryside. He would read, receive guests, and write poems about the pleasures and difficulties of life in the countryside, as well as his decision to refuse to work as an officer in the government.
Anyway, writing poems was always his favourite. He once wrote a group of poems named “Return to Gardens and Fields”. Personally, I like the third one most. This poem was written shortly after he left his job. He wanted to live a simple life.
The first six lines describe his new job as a farmer. He wasn’t born in the countryside and he had no experience of working in the field. So it was not hard to see that he wasn’t good at farming, as wild plants grew over his bean shoots(豆芽). Even so, it was quite clear that he preferred his new job to his old job.
What do you think makes his poems special? The language in Tao’s poems might seem simple, but according to Su Shi, a famous Song Dynasty poet, it takes a lot of talent to appear effortless(不费力) like Tao.
Tao’s simple and direct writing was different from the writing style of his time, but he was brave enough to break the rules.
根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过10个单词。
1. How long did Tao Yuanming spend in the countryside?
2. What was always Tao’s favourite?
3. How does the writer like Tao’s farming?
4. Who highly praised Tao Yuanming’s poems except the writer?
5. What can you learn from Tao Yuanming?

The creator of “pastoral poetry”: Tao Yuanming
Tao Yuanming, who lived during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, is seen as the creator of“pastoral poetry”. This is an important genre(流派) in Chinese poetry that is mainly about the beauty of the countryside.
Tao spent most of his life in the countryside. He would read, receive guests, and write poems about the pleasures and difficulties of life in the countryside, as well as his decision to refuse to work as an officer in the government.
Anyway, writing poems was always his favourite. He once wrote a group of poems named “Return to Gardens and Fields”. Personally, I like the third one most. This poem was written shortly after he left his job. He wanted to live a simple life.
The first six lines describe his new job as a farmer. He wasn’t born in the countryside and he had no experience of working in the field. So it was not hard to see that he wasn’t good at farming, as wild plants grew over his bean shoots(豆芽). Even so, it was quite clear that he preferred his new job to his old job.
What do you think makes his poems special? The language in Tao’s poems might seem simple, but according to Su Shi, a famous Song Dynasty poet, it takes a lot of talent to appear effortless(不费力) like Tao.
Tao’s simple and direct writing was different from the writing style of his time, but he was brave enough to break the rules.
根据短文内容回答问题,每题答案不超过10个单词。
1. How long did Tao Yuanming spend in the countryside?
Most of his life.
2. What was always Tao’s favourite?
Writing poems.
3. How does the writer like Tao’s farming?
It was hard(difficult/not easy).
4. Who highly praised Tao Yuanming’s poems except the writer?
Su Shi, a famous Song Dynasty poet.
5. What can you learn from Tao Yuanming?
I should be brave enough to break the old rules.(言之有理即可)
