五、阅读理解。
A
Huang Xuhua, a great Chinese scientist, passed away on 6th February, 2025. But his great deeds and strong spirit will always stay in our hearts and keep lighting up(点亮)China's way forward.
Huang Xuhua was born in Guangdong Province in 1926. When he was young, he saw the hard times of his country under foreign attacks. These sad memories made him study hard. He made a promise to make the country strong with his knowledge.
In the 1950s, when China started to develop nuclear submarines(核潜艇), it was a very difficult job. Huang Xuhua was not afraid and stood up bravely. At that time, there was not much advanced technology or many resources. The task felt almost impossible. But he and his team took on this challenge. To keep the project secret, they stopped contacting the outside world, even their families. Huang Xuhua left his hometown for many years.
During the design process, they met a lot of problems. They couldn't get help from foreign experts, so they could only depend on their own research. They used simple tools like abacuses(算盘)to calculate(计算)and do experiments with great effort. Another important problem was to make sure the submarine was stable(稳定的)underwater. After many tests, they slowly solved these problems.
Finally, in the 1970s, China's first nuclear submarine was built and tested successfully. This made China one of the few countries that had this ability. Huang Xuhua didn't stop after this big success. He went on to help with the development of submarine technology. His hard work and devotion(奉献)won him many honours, including the “Medal of the Republic” in 2019.
Now, when we think of him, we know that his life can inspire us a lot. We, especially the young people, should learn from his spirit. Let's take on the responsibility, face challenges bravely, and work hard to make China stronger. In this way, his spirit will live on.
