It says that if you want to become an expert in something, you need to practise for about 10,000 hours. It is not about talent, but about hard work and persistence. Many famous people have proved this rule. For example, Mo Yan, the first Chinese Nobel Prize winner in literature, wrote for many years before he became famous. He worked on his writing every day, even when he was very busy. He never gave up even when his works were refused many times. Another example is Lang Lang, the famous pianist. He started playing the piano at the age of three. He practised for several hours every day when he was a kid. Sometimes his hands hurt, but he still kept going. His hard work finally made him a world-famous pianist. The 10,000-hour rule tells us that there is no shortcut to success. If you want to achieve your dream, you need to keep working hard and never give up. One day, all your efforts will pay off. 1.What does the 10,000-hour rule talk about? 2.Who is the first Chinese Nobel Prize winner in literature? 3.When did Lang Lang start playing the piano? 4.What made Lang Lang a world-famous pianist? 5.What can we learn from the rule? The Wisdom of Bamboo Growth Bamboo is a common plant in China, and its growth teaches us a valuable lesson about persistence. When people plant young bamboo plants, they water and look after them carefully every day. In the first four years, the bamboo seems to grow nothing above the ground. Many people may feel disappointed and give up. But if you keep taking care of it, something amazing will happen. In the fifth year, a young shoot comes out of the soil. Then, the bamboo grows very fast. In just six months, it can grow to be very tall. Why can it grow so quickly? Because in the past four years, it has been growing strong roots (根) underground. These roots help it get enough water and nutrition (营养). Our life is just like the growth of bamboo. When we face difficulties, we may not see progress right away. But every effort we make is like growing roots. If we never give up and keep working hard, we will have strong “roots” one day. Then, we can grow quickly and achieve our goals. Remember: Success needs time and hard work. Keep trying, and your efforts will pay off in the end. 1.What seems to happen to the bamboo in the first four years?(不超过5个词) 2.When does the young bamboo shoot come out?(不超过10个词) 3.What can we learn from bamboo growth?(不超过15个词) Many teenagers face teenage problems in daily life. They have trouble balancing hobbies and schoolwork, and lots of students feel stressed. Some students choose to keep worries to themselves, which makes pressure heavier. When you have troubles, you can turn to parents, teachers or coaches for suggestions. Communication helps people understand each other better. When difficulties appear on your way to dreams, never give up. It takes courage to keep trying. Most successful people overcome plenty of difficulties before they realize dreams. Besides, learn to plan time wisely. Never sacrifice your sleep for training or homework. If you are sleepy in class, you cannot learn well. Challenges are part of growth. With proper ways and strong will, you can solve your problems step by step. 根据短文内容,回答下列问题 1.What difficulty do many teenagers have? 2.What will happen if teenagers keep worries to themselves? 3.Who can teenagers ask for suggestions when meeting troubles? 4.What should you not sacrifice for study or training? 5.What should we do when we meet difficulties on the way to dreams? “Though I was born with half a left arm, I don’t think I’m unlucky,” said Ms Yang, a 35-year-old woman from a small village in Hunan. She’s a successful Xiang embroidery (湘绣) artist. Now she runs a Xiang embroidery store. She lived a hard life when she was young. Luckily, her family completely supported her. After college, she applied for (申请) over 200 jobs but was turned down again and again. She tried to start her own business but failed because she lost all her money. Then she turned to Xiang embroidery. She took quite a few courses to learn it. Ms Yang’s interest in Xiang embroidery began when she was a child. She learned some basics from a neighbor. After opening the store, she took many training courses, including a three-year course at Tsinghua University. She kept improving her skills, saying that her physical disability wouldn’t stop her. In 2014, her business finally started making money. Later, she tried to do more to give back to society. Xiang embroidery, with a history of over 2,000 years, is one of the four best-known styles (风格) of embroidery in China. She hoped to spread its culture and let more people know about it. By offering free lessons, Ms Yang helped lots of people, including many disabled ones. Ms Yang’s story is encouraging. It shows how important a strong will and personal interests are. When we face difficulties, we should never give up. Just as a saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” 根据短文内容,回答下列问题。 1.Where is Ms Yang from? 2.Why did Ms Yang’s own business fail? 3.When did Ms Yang begin her interest in Xiang embroidery? 4.How long is the history of Xiang embroidery? 5.How does Ms Yang help people? 进阶拓展训练4篇 A Journey of Perseverance When I was ten years old, I told my parents that I wanted to learn to play the violin. My parents were very supportive and bought me a violin. I started taking lessons with a teacher. At first, I was very excited and practised every day. However, after a few months, I found that playing the violin was much harder than I had thought. My fingers hurt, and the sounds I made were terrible. I felt frustrated and wanted to give up. When my teacher noticed this, she encouraged me. “Playing a musical instrument takes time and patience,” she said. “Every great musician started just like you.” I decided to keep trying. I practised every day after school. While I was practising, I often made mistakes. But I didn’t stop. After two years of practice, I could play several songs quite well. When I performed in my first school concert, I felt very proud. Now I have been playing the violin for five years. I still have a lot to learn, but I know that if I keep practising, I will get better. I learned that success does not come overnight. It comes from hard work and never giving up. 根据短文内容,用完整的句子回答下列问题。 1.What did the writer want to learn at the age of ten? 2.Why did the writer feel frustrated after a few months? 3.What did the teacher say to encourage the writer? 4.How long did it take the writer to play several songs quite well? 5.What lesson did the writer learn from this experience? Shi Guangyin is one of the winners of the July 1 Medal (“七一”勋章). He’s from a county (县) which lies on the side of the Maowusu Desert. In the past, many local people had to leave the county to keep away from the terrible sandstorms. In the 1970s, when the government called on people to green the desert, Shi decided to plant trees to fight sandstorms. To buy young trees, he sold almost all his things. He also encouraged villagers to go into Maowusu for a greener future. However, it was not an easy thing. Nearly 90% of the trees they planted died at first. The villagers were sad and lost heart. But Shi said he would never give up. In the following years, Shi asked for suggestions from many experts and tried new ways to take care of the young trees. Finally, his hard work paid off. More than 80% of trees grew well in the harsh (恶劣的) environment. The yellow desert gradually turned into green forests. They’ve finally built a “Green Great Wall” of more than 50 km in the desert. People always kindly call Shi “Uncle in the Desert”. Now, the forest coverage in the county has risen from 3.8% in 1980 to 33.5% today. “We plan to improve forest quality in the next five years,” Shi said. “By following scientific plans, we will see a more beautiful and greener countryside.” 根据语篇内容,回答以下问题。 1.Why did local people leave the county in the past? 2.When did the government call on people to green the desert? 3.How did villagers feel when they saw most of the young trees die? 4.What’s the plan of Shi Guangyin’s team in the next five years? (不超过5词) 5.What do you think of Shi Guangyin? Shi Yuhao is a great Chinese long jumper. His story is full of ups and downs, but he never gave up. Over 8 years, he has grown from a nervous teen to a Bronze (铜牌)-Medal-Winner at the World Athletics Championships. In 2017, 18-year-old Shi went to the World Championships for the first time. He got to the final but felt so nervous that he cried. Even so, he finished sixth. Before that, he was already a talent. At 17, he set the Asian youth record of 8.30 meters in 2016. People thought he would have a bright future. But bad luck came in 2018. At the Shanghai Diamond League on a rainy night, Shi lost his balance upon landing and hurt his bone badly in his left foot while jumping. He couldn’t compete for five years. It was a hard time, but he worked hard to make himself stronger. He even changed his takeoff foot to the right one. His coach took him to train with Su Bingtian, a top sprinter (短跑运动员). This helped Shi a lot. Shi’s hard work paid off in 2023 at the National Athletics Championships, where he jumped 8.18 meters. Then in September 2025, 26-year-old Shi went to the World Championships again. Unlike his first appearance in 2017, Shi was relaxed and calm—so much so that he “felt like singing” before the final. In the final, he jumped 7.84 meters on his first try, then improved to 8.33 meters on his second—his personal best of the season, and won a bronze medal for China and his first medal at the world championships. Talent is good, but the spirit of never giving up helps him go further. From a crying 18-year-old to a medal-winning 26-year-old, Shi has not only rewritten his own story but also showed young people how to face difficulties in life. He is a true hero! 1.Did Shi Yuhao go to the World Championships for the first time at the age of 18? 2.How did Shi Yuhao feel when he went to the World Championships in 2025? 3.What made Shi Yuhao win a bronze medal for China? 4.As students, how can we face difficulties in our life? (about 30 words) At the top of the ancient pyramid, only two animals can reach it—the eagle and the snail. Eagles have strong wings, so they can fly high and fast, and get to the top in just a few minutes. Snails don’t have wings or speed. They move very slowly, carrying their homes on their backs. But they never stop. Day after day, they climb—one small step, then another, and another… until, at last, they reach the top too. This story teaches us an important lesson: No matter where you start—whether you’re fast like the eagle or slow like the snail—what really matters is keeping going. The eagle shows us that some people are born with special gifts (like good memories, strong bodies, or helpful family). They may reach their goals quickly and easily. That’s okay—but it’s not the only way. The snail’s story is even more powerful. It has no talent for speed, no map, no help—just its own will to try. And yet, it wins—not by being perfect, but by being patient, steady, and never giving up. So this fable reminds us: Even if you feel “behind” others—in grades, sports, or confidence—your effort still counts. Every small step forward (like finishing homework, asking one question in class, or practicing 10 minutes daily) is real progress. Success isn’t only about how fast you go—it’s about how long you keep walking. Your dream may feel far away now, like the top of a tall pyramid… but if you climb every day—even just a little—you will get there. So be like the snail: slow? Yes. Small? Yes. Strong? Absolutely. 1.How does the snail move when climbing the pyramid?(不超过5个词) 2.What should we do if we feel behind others according to the passage?(不超过10个词) 3.What is the real key to success in the story?(不超过15个词) 能力综合实践4篇 Do you know the greatest history book in ancient China? It is called Records of the Grand Historian, or Shiji in Chinese. Written by the historian Sima Qian about 2,100 years ago, this book changed how Chinese people wrote and learned about history. Sima Qian lived in the Western Han Dynasty. His father was the Grand Historian and taught Sima Qian to love history. When his father died, Sima Qian took over his job. Later, he had a serious disagreement with Emperor Wu and was punished. But he never gave up. He worked hard for about 10 years to finish Shiji. Shiji is very special. It is China’s first biographical general history. It tells stories from the legendary Yellow Emperor to Emperor Wu’s time — covering more than 3,000 years of history! The book has 130 chapters divided into five parts: Basic Annals (emperors’ stories), Hereditary Houses (noble families), Biographies (famous people’s lives), Tables (timelines), and Treatises (rules, music, and science). Shiji records not only great achievements but also the rise and fall of dynasties. By reading it, people can learn from past successes and failures. Many famous figures appear in the book, like Qin Shi Huang (the first emperor) and Zhang Qian (who opened trade routes). It teaches us about loyalty, bravery, and wisdom. It also set a model for all later Chinese history books. Today, people still read and study Shiji. It is a treasure of Chinese culture. Sima Qian’s story tells us: never give up, even when life is hard. 根据语篇内容,按要求回答问题。 1.What is Shiji about? 2.How long did Sima Qian spend finishing Shiji? 3.Why does the writer say that Shiji “set a model for all later Chinese history books”? Give at least one reason based on the passage. 4.What can you learn from Sima Qian? (不超过15个词) 5.The Chinese saying goes, “Using history as a mirror, one can understand the rise and fall of dynasties.” How does Shiji help people do this?

The carpenter was in deep sadness and went for a walk. An old man saw him and asked him what was wrong. The carpenter told him everything. The old man then invited him to his backyard and told him a story. “Eight years ago, I planted the fern (蕨类植物) and the bamboo at the same time.

The bamboo, on the other hand, was still under the ground, without showing any sign of life.” “After one year, the fern kept growing, but the bamboo did not. However, I did not give up. I kept looking after it with greater care. After five years, I finally saw a shy twig (嫩枝) was coming out from the ground. The next day, it was much bigger. After a few months, it continued to grow and became a huge bamboo of more than 10 meters. Do you know why it took so long for it to grow?” The carpenter didn’t know what to say. The old man continued, “Because the bamboo was taking root (根) from the ground. It believed that it would grow very tall and that was why it didn’t come out until it had a strong base that would allow it to grow well.” “Just like you, young man, all you need is to take your root, sharpen your skills and then no one will replace you,” he encouraged.

He’s from a county (县) which lies on the side of the Maowusu Desert. In the past, many local people had to leave the county to keep away from the terrible sandstorms. In the 1970s, when the government called on people to green the desert, Shi decided to plant trees to fight sandstorms. To buy young trees, he sold almost all his things. He also encouraged villagers to go into Maowusu for a greener future. However, it was not an easy thing. Nearly 90% of the trees they planted died at first. The villagers were sad and lost heart. But Shi said he would never give up. In the following years, Shi asked for suggestions from many experts and tried new ways to take care of the young trees. Finally, his hard work paid off. More than 80% of trees grew well in the harsh (恶劣的) environment. The yellow desert gradually turned into green forests. They’ve finally built a “Green Great Wall” of more than 50 km in the desert. People always kindly call Shi “Uncle in the Desert”. Now, the forest coverage in the county has risen from 3.8% in 1980 to 33.5% today. “We plan to improve forest quality in the next five years,” Shi said. “By following scientific plans, we will see a more beautiful and greener countryside.” 根据语篇内容，回答以下问题。 1．Why did local people leave the county in the past? 2．When did the government call on people to green the desert? 3．How did villagers feel when they saw most of the young trees die? 4．What’s the plan of Shi Guangyin’s team in the next five years? (不超过5词) 5．What do you think of Shi Guangyin? 【答案】1．Because of the terrible sandstorms. 2．In the 1970s. 3．They felt sad and lost heart. 4．To improve forest quality. 5．He is determined and hard-working. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了“七一”勋章获得者石光银带领村民治理毛乌素沙漠的感人事迹。 1．根据“many local people had to leave the county to keep away from the terrible sandstorms”可知，过去当地人因为可怕的沙尘暴而离开县城。故填Because of the terrible sandstorms. 2．根据“In the 1970s, when the government called on people to green the desert”可知，政府在20世纪70年代号召人们绿化沙漠。故填In the 1970s. 3．根据“The villagers were sad and lost heart”可知，村民们看到大部分树苗死亡时感到悲伤和灰心。故填They felt sad and lost heart. 4．根据“We plan to improve forest quality in the next five years”可知，石光银团队未来五年的计划是提高森林质量。故填To improve forest quality. 5．根据文章内容可知，石光银是一个意志坚定、勤奋努力的人。故填He is determined and hard-working. Shi Yuhao is a great Chinese long jumper. His story is full of ups and downs, but he never gave up. Over 8 years, he has grown from a nervous teen to a Bronze (铜牌)-Medal-Winner at the World Athletics Championships. In 2017, 18-year-old Shi went to the World Championships for the first time. He got to the final but felt so nervous that he cried. Even so, he finished sixth. Before that, he was already a talent. At 17, he set the Asian youth record of 8.30 meters in 2016. People thought he would have a bright future. But bad luck came in 2018. At the Shanghai Diamond League on a rainy night, Shi lost his balance upon landing and hurt his bone badly in his left foot while jumping. He couldn’t compete for five years. It was a hard time, but he worked hard to make himself stronger. He even changed his takeoff foot to the right one. His coach took him to train with Su Bingtian, a top sprinter (短跑运动员). This helped Shi a lot. Shi’s hard work paid off in 2023 at the National Athletics Championships, where he jumped 8.18 meters. Then in September 2025, 26-year-old Shi went to the World Championships again. Unlike his first appearance in 2017, Shi was relaxed and calm—so much so that he “felt like singing” before the final. In the final, he jumped 7.84 meters on his first try, then improved to 8.33 meters on his second—his personal best of the season, and won a bronze medal for China and his first medal at the world championships. Talent is good, but the spirit of never giving up helps him go further. From a crying 18-year-old to a medal-winning 26-year-old, Shi has not only rewritten his own story but also showed young people how to face difficulties in life. He is a true hero! 1．Did Shi Yuhao go to the World Championships for the first time at the age of 18? 2．How did Shi Yuhao feel when he went to the World Championships in 2025? 3．What made Shi Yuhao win a bronze medal for China? 4．As students, how can we face difficulties in our life? (about 30 words) 【答案】1．Yes, he did. 2．He was relaxed and calm. 3．His talent and the spirit of never giving up. 4．As students, we can face difficulties by staying positive, setting clear goals, working hard, seeking help from teachers and friends, and never giving up until we achieve success. 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国跳远运动员石宇豪的故事，包括他初次参加世界锦标赛的经历、遭遇伤病后的坚持与努力，以及最终在2025年世界锦标赛上赢得铜牌的辉煌成就。 1．根据第二段“In 2017, 18-year-old Shi went to the World Championships for the first time.”可知，石宇豪在18岁时首次参加了世界锦标赛。故填Yes, he did. 2．根据第四段“Unlike his first appearance in 2017, Shi was relaxed and calm—so much so that he ‘felt like singing’ before the final.”可知，石宇豪在2025年参加世界锦标赛时感到放松和平静。故填He was relaxed and calm. 3．根据最后一段“Talent is good, but the spirit of never giving up helps him go further.”可知，石宇豪赢得铜牌的原因除了天赋外，更重要的是他永不放弃的精神。故填His talent and the spirit of never giving up. 4．开放性问题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：As students, we can face difficulties by staying positive, setting clear goals, working hard, seeking help from teachers and friends, and never giving up until we achieve success. At the top of the ancient pyramid, only two animals can reach it—the eagle and the snail. Eagles have strong wings, so they can fly high and fast, and get to the top in just a few minutes. Snails don’t have wings or speed. They move very slowly, carrying their homes on their backs. But they never stop. Day after day, they climb—one small step, then another, and another… until, at last, they reach the top too. This story teaches us an important lesson: No matter where you start—whether you’re fast like the eagle or slow like the snail—what really matters is keeping going. The eagle shows us that some people are born with special gifts (like good memories, strong bodies, or helpful family). They may reach their goals quickly and easily. That’s okay—but it’s not the only way. The snail’s story is even more powerful. It has no talent for speed, no map, no help—just its own will to try. And yet, it wins—not by being perfect, but by being patient, steady, and never giving up. So this fable reminds us: Even if you feel “behind” others—in grades, sports, or confidence—your effort still counts. Every small step forward (like finishing homework, asking one question in class, or practicing 10 minutes daily) is real progress. Success isn’t only about how fast you go—it’s about how long you keep walking. Your dream may feel far away now, like the top of a tall pyramid… but if you climb every day—even just a little—you will get there. So be like the snail: slow? Yes. Small? Yes. Strong? Absolutely. 1．How does the snail move when climbing the pyramid?（不超过5个词） 2．What should we do if we feel behind others according to the passage?（不超过10个词） 3．What is the real key to success in the story?（不超过15个词） 【答案】1．It moves very slowly. 2．We should keep going and make progress. 3．Keeping going and never giving up. 【导语】本文通过鹰和蜗牛都能到达金字塔顶端的寓言，传递了“成功不在于速度，而在于坚持与持续努力”的人生哲理。 1．原文第一段明确描述蜗牛“They move very slowly”，这是原文直接给出的信息，可直接提取。 2．原文倒数第三段提到“Even if you feel ‘behind’ others... your effort still counts. Every small step forward... is real progress”，因此答案需概括“继续努力、稳步前进”的核心意思。 参考答案：We should keep going and make progress. 3．原文核心观点为“what really matters is keeping going... not by being perfect, but by being patient, steady, and never giving up”，因此答案是原文直接信息。 能力综合实践4篇 Do you know the greatest history book in ancient China? It is called Records of the Grand Historian, or Shiji in Chinese. Written by the historian Sima Qian about 2,100 years ago, this book changed how Chinese people wrote and learned about history. Sima Qian lived in the Western Han Dynasty. His father was the Grand Historian and taught Sima Qian to love history. When his father died, Sima Qian took over his job. Later, he had a serious disagreement with Emperor Wu and was punished. But he never gave up. He worked hard for about 10 years to finish Shiji. Shiji is very special. It is China’s first biographical general history. It tells stories from the legendary Yellow Emperor to Emperor Wu’s time — covering more than 3,000 years of history! The book has 130 chapters divided into five parts: Basic Annals (emperors’ stories), Hereditary Houses (noble families), Biographies (famous people’s lives), Tables (timelines), and Treatises (rules, music, and science). Shiji records not only great achievements but also the rise and fall of dynasties. By reading it, people can learn from past successes and failures. Many famous figures appear in the book, like Qin Shi Huang (the first emperor) and Zhang Qian (who opened trade routes). It teaches us about loyalty, bravery, and wisdom. It also set a model for all later Chinese history books. Today, people still read and study Shiji. It is a treasure of Chinese culture. Sima Qian’s story tells us: never give up, even when life is hard. 根据语篇内容，按要求回答问题。 1．What is Shiji about? 2．How long did Sima Qian spend finishing Shiji? 3．Why does the writer say that Shiji “set a model for all later Chinese history books”? Give at least one reason based on the passage. 4．What can you learn from Sima Qian?
