The first porcelain in China was made in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The main materials of porcelain were clay and the surface of it was glaze (釉). Both need to be fired at a high temperature. During the Tang and Song dynasties, porcelain was the earliest customized luxury (奢侈) goods that were sold abroad, so China was called “a nation of porcelain”. The Legend of Silk The invention of silk is said to date back 5,000 years. The wife of Emperor Huang, Leizu, brought the sericulture (养蚕) technology to central China. In ancient times, silk was usually made from real silk threads spun (吐) by silkworms. Silk was soft, smooth and light, so it was often used in clothing, writing, fishing and making instruments. It was valuable (有价值的) in ancient Chinese societies and trade networks. The Four Treasures of the Study Proudly, the four treasures of the study were all invented in China. They include the brush, ink, Xuan paper and inkstone. The brush serves as the primary tool for writing and is cherished for its graceful strokes (笔触). Ink, as the material for writing, retains its deep and pleasant smell through time. Xuan paper, where the characters are written, is light yet strong. The inkstone comes in different shapes. It is used to grind (磨) the ink before writing. 1. It’s clear that porcelain ________. A. is only made of clay and glaze B. was connected to the overseas trade C. was first traded during the Eastern Han Dynasty D. was popular with common people in the Tang Dynasty 2. What is NOT a use of silk in ancient times? A. Writing on silk. B. Making fishing tools. C. Making clothing. D. Producing porcelain. 3. What can we learn about Xuan paper? A. It is light yet strong. B. It comes in different shapes. C. It is easy to grind ink. D. It has a deep and pleasant smell. 4. Through the news above, the writer might want to introduce ________. A. Emperor Huang’s story B. the wisdom of Chinese people C. inventions in ancient China D. the rise of ancient Chinese trade 5. In which section of the newspaper can we read the news? A. World. B. Sports. C. Culture. D. Travel. B We all have names, but many of us also have nicknames (绰号). Some nicknames come from our family, some from friends, and others from our hobbies or habits. Have you ever thought about what they really mean? It’s interesting that we seldom choose our own nicknames—most are given by people close to us. This tells us the first truth about nicknames: they’re not just for ourselves. A nickname shows the relationship between you and the person who gave it. For example, my name is Mia. At home, my grandma calls me “Mimi” because I loved eating honey when I was little. At school, my friends call me “Bookworm” because I always read during breaks. Are these nicknames “me”? Yes, in every way. The key point is that nicknames are not casual (随意的) sounds. They carry the memories and feelings of the people who give them. If your best friend always calls you “Sunshine” because you often cheer them up, you might start to see yourself as someone who brings joy to others. Moreover, nicknames can make us feel closer to others. When someone uses your nickname instead of your full name, it feels like a sign of trust—like they know the “real” you. So, whether it’s a nickname from family, friends, or classmates, there’s more to it than just a name. Family nicknames are full of love, friend nicknames are full of fun, and school nicknames are full of shared memories. People often say “a nickname is just a name”, but the truth is: a nickname is much more. It’s a little piece of the love, fun, and memories we share with others. 6. Why does Mia’s grandma call her “Mimi” according to the passage? A. Because she likes reading books during breaks. B. Because she has a warm and sunny personality. C. Because she loves her family members. D. Because she loved eating honey when she was little. 7. If a boy’s classmates call him “Sports Guy” because he loves playing basketball, he might ________. A. feel bad when others use this nickname B. begin to see himself as someone who enjoys sports C. think playing basketball is more important than studying D. decide to stop playing basketball to change the nickname 8. What can we infer (推测) from Paragraph 3? A. Nicknames can influence how we see ourselves. B. People like full names better than nicknames in daily life. C. Nicknames are just casual sounds with no special meaning. D. Only close friends can give others meaningful nicknames. 9. What does the author want to tell us by saying “a nickname is much more” in Paragraph 5? A. Nicknames are easier to remember than full names. B. Nicknames carry love, fun and memories with others. C. Nicknames are more important than real names. D. Nicknames can take the place of real names. 10. What’s the best title of the passage? A. The history of nicknames. B. How to get a special nickname. C. Nickname: more than just a name. D. Different kinds of nicknames around us. C Yang Zhenning, a physicist (物理学家) and Nobel Prize winner, died in Beijing on Oct. 18, 2025. Yang Zhenning was born in Hefei, China, in 1922. His father was a university professor who loved science, and this made Yang interested in physics from a young age. Later, Yang went to the United States to study. There, he worked with some great scientists and became friends with another Chinese scientist, Li Zhengdao. They studied a physics problem together. At that time, most scientists believed a certain rule was always true. But Yang and Li found it wasn’t true in some special cases. This surprised the whole world. In 1957, they won the Nobel Prize for this. Yang was only 35 years old then. Yang also created an important theory. It is now a key part of modern physics. Many scientists still use it today. In 2003, at the age of 81, Yang returned to China and taught at Tsinghua University in Beijing. He liked to start his lessons with basic ideas. He didn’t use computers in class and always graded homework by himself. He also helped Tsinghua University build a top research center. In 2015, Yang gave up his US nationality and returned to China to settle down. In 2017, he became a member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院). He named his house “GuiGen Ju”, which means “the house of returning to the beginning”. Yang Zhenning loved China deeply all his life. He never stopped working and always cared about the development of science in China. 11. What should we learn from Yang Zhenning? A. He went to the United States to study. B. He loved China deeply all his life. C. He learned a lot about physics from Tsinghua University. D. He won the Nobel Prize alone in 1957. 12. What did Yang and Li Zhengdao find in their research? A. A new university in the US. B. A new kind of computer. C. A way to speak English well. D. An old rule was not always true. 13. The word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A. the important theory B. the Nobel Prize C. modern physics D. the research center 14. Which of the following is TRUE about Yang after he returned to China? A. He stopped all his research work. B. He started using computers in class. C. He taught at Tsinghua University. D. He only stayed in China for 10 years. 15. What does the name “GuiGen Ju” show? A. Yang loved his house very much. B. Yang wanted to buy a new house. C. Yang planned to go back to the US. D. Yang finally returned to his motherland. D One of the best parts of autumn is its beautiful colors. Green leaves turn into orange, yellow, red and finally brown. This is called “leaf phenology” (叶片物候学). Many people look forward to it every year. However, because of climate change, autumn is changing. According to a study that came out earlier this year, autumn time is growing longer. It is taking longer for leaves to change their colors. And this is not the only way that climate change is ruining (毁坏) the season. “Trees are holding onto their leaves longer,” explained Dr. Diamond, a climate scientist. “In my own neighborhood, I can remember that the leaves would drop a lot sooner 20 years ago than they do now. This is a personal experience, but research actually supports what we’ re seeing.” Climate change isn’t just causing the leaves to change later. We can also expect later frosts (霜), Dr. Mann said. “That means pests (害虫) stay active for a longer time in autumn, it’s a greater health risk to us.” If there is any good news at all, though, we may be able to delay (延缓) this development. If we reduce carbon emissions (减少碳排放) , they could still stop the worst effects (影响) of climate change. “A new study says that surface warming will possibly stop after carbon emissions reach zero,” Mann noted in Live Science recently. Autumn is such a wonderful season — whether it’s the golden leaves covering the grasslands in North China or the ginkgo trees (银杏树) dropping their yellow leaves in our schoolyard, it’s a gift we should keep. The beautiful autumn we protect today may be the sweet memory we will hold tomorrow. 16. What is “leaf phenology” according to the passage? A. The fall of leaves in winter. B. The protection of leaves in summer. C. The growth of leaves in spring. D. The change of leaf colors in autumn. 17. Which is the effect of climate change on autumn? A. Autumn is becoming shorter. B. Leaves are changing their colors sooner. C. There is less frost in autumn. D. We have sweet memory about autumn. 18. What is the result of later frosts? A. There are fewer pests in autumn. B. Pests stay active for a longer time. C. Leaves are changing their colors earlier. D. There is a lower health risk to us. 19. What does the underlined phrase “this development” refer to? A. The beautiful autumn scenery in people’s life. B. Dr. Diamond’s memories of the autumn before. C. The autumn changes because of climate change. D. Dr. Mann’s advice on stopping carbon emissions. 20. What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To call for actions against climate change. B. To describe the beautiful colors of autumn. C. To talk about the effects of autumn changes. D. To explain the research about leaf phenology. 第二节 短文还原（共5小题，计5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 An old friend of mine advises me to say NO more often so I can focus on what matters most.

His story, from a young man who fights against heavy hardships to an encouraging character, has warmed many hearts. Born with great challenges, Pang lived a hard life when he was a child. His father has a mental illness. His mother was born with a disease in her spine (脊椎) and her legs were cut off, so she can hardly move. Pang himself had a heart problem when he was born. He went from door to door to borrow money for his mother’s treatment. He also collected waste things to make money and help pay off his family’s debts (债务). But he was always optimistic (乐观的). He believed that “knowledge can change my life”. In 2017, Pang entered Tsinghua University with a very high score in the college entrance exam. At first, he was worried that he might not do well, but he found his interest in research. He kept going even after many failures. Although money is still the problem, he decided to depend on himself. He didn’t accept the money raised for him. Instead, he asked Tsinghua for grants (补助金) and won the prizes for good grades. His mother named him “Zhongwang”, which means “the hope of all”. She taught him to always look ahead. “Mom smiles every day—why should I feel sad?” he once said. Sadly, his mother passed away in 2020, just before he could study for a doctor’s degree at Tsinghua. Now, he has written many important papers and got patents (专利) for his inventions. He wants to “serve the country through scientific research” and he works hard for this goal. His story lights the way for many people. As the award speech says, “You leave hardships behind, face life with a smile, and move forward with strength.” Pang’s journey tells us that with great strength and hope, we can all be excellent and create our own wonderful life. 46.
