They speak to us across centuries, offering wisdom, comfort, and inspiration. But what makes a book truly “great”? A great book is one that continues to be read and loved long after its author has passed away. In April 2026, the 31st World Book Day, the Library Society of China reported that annual book borrowing in public libraries had exceeded 1 billion visits nationwide. Despite the rise of short videos and digital entertainment, people still turn to books for knowledge and pleasure. Great books often explore universal themes—love, friendship, courage, and justice. They challenge us to think and help us understand ourselves and others better. When we read a classic novel, we enter a world created by someone who lived long ago, but we discover that their thoughts are still relevant today. As one reader said, “A great book is a conversation across time.” Reading connects us not only to the author but also to all the readers who have come before us. That is why great books never grow old—they grow with us. Questions: 1. What makes a book truly “great” according to the passage? 2. What report was released on World Book Day 2026? 3. What universal themes do great books often explore? 4. What did one reader say about a great book? 5. Why do great books never grow old? Passage 2 （词数：约208） 热点导读： 2026年1月，是中国四大古典名著之一的《红楼梦》作者曹雪芹诞辰310周年。全国各地举办了系列纪念活动，从新版电视剧改编到学术研讨会，这部“中国文学的巅峰之作”依然焕发着蓬勃的生命力。 A Dream of Red Mansions — A Timeless Classic Have you ever read A Dream of Red Mansions? Written by Cao Xueqin in the 18th century, it is one of the greatest works of Chinese literature. The novel tells the story of a wealthy family in the Qing Dynasty, focusing on the tragic love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. But it is much more than a love story—it paints a detailed picture of Chinese society, culture, and human nature. In January 2026, the 310th anniversary of Cao Xueqin’s birth was celebrated across China. Events included academic conferences, new stage adaptations, and discussions about the novel‘s lasting influence. Why does a book written over 250 years ago still matter today? Perhaps because it speaks to something universal. The characters in the novel face love, loss, joy, and sorrow—emotions that every generation experiences. The novel also explores deep questions: What is the meaning of life? What makes us happy? These questions are as relevant today as they were in Cao Xueqin’s time. “A Dream of Red Mansions is not just a book,” said a literary scholar. “It is a mirror that reflects the human condition.” Its themes continue to resonate, making it a classic that will never fade. Questions: 1. When was A Dream of Red Mansions written? 2. Who is the author of this novel? 3. Why is the novel more than just a love story? 4. What events were held in January 2026? 5. What did the literary scholar say about the novel? Passage 3 （词数：约212） 热点导读： 2026年5月，一份针对中学生的阅读调查显示，《三体》位居“最受中学生喜爱的图书”榜首。刘慈欣的科幻巨作不仅激发了年轻人对科学的兴趣，更让他们思考人类在宇宙中的位置。科幻文学正在成为中国青少年阅读的新潮流。 Reading to the Future — The Magic of Science Fiction What books are today’s teenagers reading? According to a survey of middle school students in May 2026, the most popular book was The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin. This science fiction novel has captured the imagination of millions of young readers. Why do teenagers love science fiction? Perhaps because it takes them to worlds they have never seen. Science fiction explores big ideas—space travel, artificial intelligence, and the future of humanity. It makes readers wonder: What if? And that sense of wonder is what makes reading so exciting. Science fiction also makes us think about our own world. When we read about a distant planet or a future society, we often realize that the stories are about us. They ask important questions about how we treat each other and what kind of future we want to create. “Science fiction is not about predicting the future,” said a writer. “It is about imagining possibilities.” It encourages us to dream and to question. And that is something every great book should do. Questions: 1. What was the most popular book among middle school students in 2026? 2. Who is the author of this book? 3. Why do teenagers love science fiction? 4. What does science fiction make us think about? 5. What did the writer say about science fiction? Passage 4 （词数：约210） 热点导读： 2026年6月，法国作家圣-埃克苏佩里的《小王子》迎来了出版83周年纪念。这部被翻译成300多种语言的作品，用最简单的故事讲述最深刻的哲理：“只有用心才能看清，真正重要的东西用眼睛是看不见的。” The Little Prince — A Book for All Ages Have you ever read a book that made you see the world differently? For millions of readers around the world, The Little Prince is that book. Written by French author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, this short story has been translated into over 300 languages and dialects. In June 2026, The Little Prince celebrated its 83rd anniversary of publication. It tells the story of a young prince who travels from planet to planet, meeting strange adults who have lost their sense of wonder. Through the eyes of the little prince, we are reminded of what truly matters—friendship, love, and the beauty of simple things. The book’s most famous line is: “What is essential is invisible to the eye.” This means that the most important things in life—kindness, loyalty, and love—cannot be seen with our eyes but felt with our hearts. “The Little Prince is a children‘s book for adults,” said a translator. “Every time you read it, you discover something new.” Perhaps that is why it continues to be loved by people of all ages. Questions: 1. Who wrote The Little Prince? 2. How many languages has the book been translated into? 3. When did the book celebrate its 83rd anniversary? 4. What is the book’s most famous line? 5. What does the most famous line mean? Passage5（词数：约210） 热点导读： 2026年暑假，一场名为“一页一世界”的青少年阅读马拉松在线上启动，吸引了全国超过10万名学生参与。21天读完一本书，写出100字的读后感——这个简单的任务，让无数孩子重新爱上了阅读。 The Joy of Reading Together Reading is often seen as a solitary activity—just you and a book. But reading can also be a shared experience. In the summer of 2026, a national online reading marathon called “One Page, One World” was launched. It attracted over 100,000 students from across China. The task was simple: read a book in 21 days and write a 100-word review. Why did so many young people join? Because reading together made it more fun. Participants could share their thoughts on a special platform. They discussed characters, predicted plot twists, and recommended books to each other. Many said they discovered new books through the recommendations of others. “Reading alone is good, but reading together is better,” said a 14-year-old participant. “When you share what you read, the story becomes bigger.” Reading together not only deepens understanding but also builds connections. The reading marathon showed that, in a world of distractions, young people still value the magic of stories. And when they share that magic with others, it becomes even more powerful. Questions: 1. What was the name of the reading marathon in summer 2026? 2. How many students participated in the event? 3. What was the task for each participant? 4. Why did so many young people join the marathon? 5. What did the 14-year-old participant say about reading together? Passage 6 （词数：约235） 热点导读： 2026年6月，由陕西师范大学出版总社出版的“中学语文名著导读”系列丛书正式发行，该丛书由全国86位语文名师联合编写，旨在用“一句话、一段文、一本书”三步法帮助中学生攻克经典阅读难关。丛书主编表示：“经典阅读之所以难，往往不是文本本身，而是缺少一把钥匙。” Unlocking the Classics Have you ever tried to read a classic novel and given up after a few pages? You are not alone. Many students find classic literature difficult because of the old language, complex plots, or unfamiliar cultural references. In June 2026, a new series of books called “Middle School Chinese Classics Reading Guide” was published. It was written by 86 Chinese language teachers from across the country. The series uses a simple method: “One Sentence, One Paragraph, One Book.” It breaks down each classic into manageable parts, providing explanations of difficult words, background information, and discussion questions. The goal is to help students not only understand the book but also enjoy it. “The problem with classics is often not the text itself but the lack of a key to unlock it,” said the chief editor. “Our guide provides that key.” The series has been warmly welcomed by students and teachers alike. Many students said they were finally able to finish books they had started many times before. Reading classics is like climbing a mountain. It may be hard at first, but with the right guide, the view from the top is always worth the effort. Questions: 1. What was published in June 2026? 2. Who wrote the series? 3. What is the “One Sentence, One Paragraph, One Book” method? 4. What did the chief editor say about the problem with classics? 5. Why does the author compare reading classics to climbing a mountain? Passage 7（词数：约238） 热点导读： 2026年7月，北京地铁推出“书香地铁”主题专列，车厢内设有免费图书借阅架和扫码听书功能，上线首月就吸引了超过50万人次参与。“碎片化阅读”曾被认为是浅阅读的代名词，但越来越多的阅读推广者开始反思：在快节奏的生活中，任何形式的阅读都比不读强。 Reading in Bits and Pieces Do you read on your phone during a bus ride? Do you listen to audiobooks while walking? In today‘s fast-paced world, many of us read in small pieces—a few minutes here, a few pages there. This is called “fragmented reading.” In July 2026, the Beijing subway launched “Bookish Subway” themed trains. Each carriage had free book borrowing shelves and QR codes for listening to audiobooks. In the first month, over 500,000 people used the service. Commuters could pick up a book during their journey and leave it for the next person to enjoy. Some people say fragmented reading is not “real reading.” They argue that deep reading requires long, uninterrupted time. But others believe that reading in any form is better than not reading at all. “Great books are meant to be enjoyed, not feared,” said a reading advocate. “If you can only read for ten minutes a day, that is still ten minutes of growth.” Perhaps the most important thing is not how you read, but that you keep reading. Questions: 1. What is “fragmented reading”? 2. What was launched on the Beijing subway in July 2026? 3. How many people used the service in the first month? 4. What do some people say against fragmented reading? 5. What did the reading advocate say about reading? Passage 8 （词数：约240） 热点导读： 2026年8月，一则新闻在社交媒体上引发热议：某偏远山区小学因缺乏课外书，全校仅有87本图书，其中还有不少是上世纪90年代的旧书。消息发出后不到一周，来自全国各地的爱心图书如雪片般飞向这所小学。一本书或许能改变一个孩子的命运。 A Library of Hope Imagine a school with only 87 books for all its students. That was the reality for a remote mountain primary school in August 2026. Most of the books were from the 1990s and falling apart. The school had no library, and students rarely had the chance to read outside their textbooks. When news of the school’s situation spread on social media, people across the country responded with incredible generosity. Within a week, thousands of books arrived at the school from every corner of China. Picture books, novels, encyclopedias, and science magazines—they came in boxes and bundles. The headteacher said, “This is a new beginning for our students. These books will open doors they never knew existed.” Students were overjoyed. One little girl said, “I‘ve never had my own book before. This is like a dream.” A single book can change a life. It can introduce a child to new worlds, new ideas, and new possibilities. The story of this school reminds us that reading is not just a hobby—it is a right that every child deserves. Questions: 1. How many books did the remote mountain primary school have? 2. What was the condition of the books? 3. How did people across China respond to the news? 4. What did the headteacher say about the books? 5. Why does the passage say reading is more than just a hobby? Passage 9 （词数：约242） 热点导读： 2026年7月，中国邮政发行了一套以经典名著人物为主题的邮票，包括孙悟空、贾宝玉、林黛玉、诸葛亮等形象，旨在鼓励全民阅读。邮票虽小，方寸之间却承载着一个民族对文学的热爱。 Classic Characters Come to Life What do Sun Wukong, Lin Daiyu, and Zhuge Liang have in common? They are all characters from classic Chinese literature—and now they are also on postage stamps. In July 2026, China Post issued a new series of stamps featuring famous characters from classic Chinese novels. The set included scenes from Journey to the West, A Dream of Red Mansions, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Each stamp was designed with beautiful illustrations and detailed descriptions of the character and the story behind them. Why would a postal service issue stamps about literary characters? The purpose is to encourage reading. As one postal official said, “We hope these stamps will remind people of the joy of reading great books. A stamp may be small, but it carries a big message.” The stamps were instantly popular. Many people bought them not just to send letters, but to collect them. Some said they were inspired to read the original novels after seeing the stamps. This shows that literature can find its way into our lives in unexpected ways. Great stories never die—they simply find new forms to live on. Questions: 1. What was issued by China Post in July 2026? 2. Which literary characters were featured on the stamps? 3. Why were these stamps issued? 4. What did the postal official say about the stamps? 5. Why does the passage say literature can live on in new forms? Passage 10 （词数：约248） 热点导读： 2026年9月，某中学语文老师在课堂上问学生：“你读过最让你感动的一本书是什么？”全班40个学生，有38个提到的书名都是经典名著。老师感慨：“经典之所以成为经典，是因为它们写出了人类永远的情感——无论时代如何变迁，我们都为同样的故事落泪。” Why We Read Great Books This is the big question of this unit: Why should we read great books? After reading about timeless classics, science fiction, reading guides, subway reading, and donated books, we might begin to find our answer. Perhaps we read great books because they help us understand ourselves. The characters and situations in these books may come from different times and places, but their emotions are familiar. Love, loss, courage, fear—these feelings are part of being human. Perhaps we read great books because they teach us empathy. When we step into the shoes of a character, we learn to see the world from another person’s perspective. This makes us more understanding and kind. Perhaps we read great books because they connect us to something larger than ourselves. They link us to the past, to other cultures, and to all the other readers who have been moved by the same words. In September 2026, a Chinese teacher asked her class: “What is the most moving book you have ever read?” Out of 40 students, 38 named a classic. The teacher said, “Great books become classics because they express the feelings that never change—no matter how much the world changes.” That is why we will keep reading them—generation after generation. Questions: 1. What did the teacher ask her class in September 2026? 2. What were the three reasons for reading great books mentioned in the passage? 3. Why do great books help us understand ourselves? 4. What does reading books teach us about empathy? 5. Why did the teacher say great books become classics? 解析版答案 Passage 1 — Why Great Books Never Grow Old 1. 答案： One that continues to be read and loved long after its author's death. 解析： 第一段末尾明确写道“A great book is one that continues to be read and loved long after its author has passed away.” 作者给出了对“伟大作品”的定义：不是销量高或名气大，而是跨越时间的考验，在作者离世后依然被一代又一代读者阅读和珍视。直接摘取原文即可。 2. 答案： Annual book borrowing in public libraries exceeded 1 billion visits nationwide. 解析： 第二段说“the Library Society of China reported that annual book borrowing in public libraries had exceeded 1 billion visits nationwide.” 2026年世界读书日当天，中国图书馆学会发布报告：全国公共图书馆年借阅人次突破10亿。这个数据说明即便在短视频时代，阅读依然有强大的生命力。回答时包含数字和事件两个要素。 3. 答案： Love, friendship, courage, and justice. 解析： 第三段说“Great books often explore universal themes—love, friendship, courage, and justice.” 伟大作品探讨的是超越时空和文化的普世主题——爱情、友谊、勇气和正义。这些主题之所以“普世”，是因为它们是人类共通的经历和情感，无论时代如何变迁，都能引起共鸣。回答时四个主题都要提到。 4. 答案： “A great book is a conversation across time.” 解析： 第四段引用读者的话“A great book is a conversation across time.” 这句话把阅读比作一场“跨越时间的对话”——读者通过文字与作者交流思想，也与历史上所有读过这本书的读者产生共鸣。回答时直接引用原文。 5. 答案： They grow with us and remain relevant across generations. 解析： 最后一段说“That is why great books never grow old—they grow with us.” 伟大作品之所以永不过时，不是因为它们一成不变，而是因为它们伴随每一代读者成长——不同年龄、不同时代的人都能从中读出新的意义。深层含义：经典是活的，它们随着读者的生命经验而不断被重新诠释。 Passage 2 — A Dream of Red Mansions — A Timeless Classic 1. 答案： In the 18th century. 解析： 第一段说“Written by Cao Xueqin in the 18th century, it is one of the greatest works of Chinese literature.” 《红楼梦》成书于18世纪（清代乾隆年间）。回答时直接写“18世纪”即可。 2. 答案： Cao Xueqin. 解析： 第一段明确写道“Written by Cao Xueqin in the 18th century.” 《红楼梦》的作者是曹雪芹。曹雪芹是中国文学史上最伟大的小说家之一，他创作的《红楼梦》被誉为中国古典小说的巅峰之作。 3. 答案： It paints a detailed picture of Chinese society, culture, and human nature. 解析： 第一段说“But it is much more than a love story—it paints a detailed picture of Chinese society, culture, and human nature.” 《红楼梦》表面上是贾宝玉和林黛玉的爱情悲剧，但它的深度远超爱情故事——它细致描绘了中国封建社会的生活画卷、文化习俗和人性百态，堪称一部“百科全书式”的小说。 4. 答案： Academic conferences, new stage adaptations, and discussions about the novel's influence. 解析： 第二段说“Events included academic conferences, new stage adaptations, and discussions about the novel's lasting influence.” 2026年1月曹雪芹诞辰310周年，全国各地举办了学术会议、舞台剧新编、探讨小说持久影响力的讨论会等纪念活动。回答时至少提到两项。 5. 答案： It is a mirror that reflects the human condition. 解析： 最后一段文学学者说“A Dream of Red Mansions is not just a book.
