Although she lived only 29 years, she made remarkable achievements in many fields. Born in Tongcheng, Anhui Province, Wang Zhenyi was inspired by her grandmother and father, both of whom loved books and learning. From a young age, she showed a strong interest in mathematics and astronomy. She spent much of her time reading and building her knowledge. One of Wang Zhenyi's greatest achievements was explaining the cause of lunar eclipses. At a time when many people believed that eclipses were caused by supernatural forces, she used science to show that they were natural events. She even built a simple model using a table, a mirror, and a lamp to demonstrate how lunar eclipses work. In addition to her scientific work, Wang Zhenyi was also a talented poet. She wrote many poems about nature, science, and her own experiences. Her poetry was no less remarkable than her skill in mathematics. Wang Zhenyi is remembered as a pioneer for women in science.

Passage B — 科学发现类 The Sweet Truth — Chen Wangdao's Story In the spring of 1920, a young man named Chen Wangdao was working in a small, dim room in his hometown in Zhejiang Province. He was concentrating on a very important task — translating The Communist Manifesto into Chinese for the first time. The room was simple, with just a desk, a chair, and a few books. Chen Wangdao worked day and night, relying on his strong belief in the truth he was spreading. His mother, worried that he was not eating enough, brought him some zongzi (rice dumplings) and a plate of brown sugar sauce. Later, his mother asked through the door whether the sugar was sweet enough. "Very sweet, Mother!" he replied. But when his mother came in, she found that he had been dipping his zongzi into ink! He was so concentrated on his translation that he did not notice the difference at all. Chen Wangdao later said, "The taste of truth is very sweet." His translation of The Communist Manifesto was published in 1920 and became a turning point in Chinese revolutionary history. It inspired many young people to fight for a better future. This story reminds us that great people are often so devoted to their work that they forget about everything else. Their concentration and belief can change the world. 6. What was Chen Wangdao doing in the spring of 1920? A. Teaching at a university B. Translating a book into Chinese C. Writing poems about truth D. Studying science in Zhejiang 7. Why did Chen Wangdao dip his zongzi into ink? A. He was hungry and made a mistake. B. He did not like the sugar sauce. C. He was too concentrated on his work to notice. D. He wanted to test the ink. 8. What does "The taste of truth is very sweet" mean? A. Truth tastes like sugar. B. Seeking and believing in truth brings great satisfaction. C. Ink is actually sweet. D. He liked eating zongzi. 9. The translation of The Communist Manifesto was important because ________. A. it was the first book printed in China B. it inspired many young people to fight for a better future C. it was written by Chen Wangdao D. it helped people learn science 10. What is the main message of this passage? A. Eating zongzi is important for health. B. Translation work is very difficult. C. Devotion and belief can lead to great achievements. D. Mothers always worry about their children. Passage C — 文化/品质类 What Makes a Person Great? When we think of great people, we often think of those who have changed the world in some way. But what qualities do great people share? Here are some important ones. Curiosity — Great people are always curious about the world around them. They ask questions and look for answers. Einstein once said, "I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious." Courage — It takes courage to try something new and to stand by your beliefs, even when others disagree. Copernicus was brave enough to say that the Earth goes around the Sun, even though most people at that time believed the opposite. Persistence — Great people never give up easily. Tu Youyou and her team tested over 2,000 traditional Chinese medicines before they finally found artemisinin. It was her persistence that led to success. Selflessness — Many great people work not for themselves but for others. They are willing to sacrifice their own comfort for the good of others. Fleming did not try to make money from penicillin — he wanted it to help as many people as possible. These qualities — curiosity, courage, persistence, and selflessness — are what make a person truly great. And the good news is that these are qualities that anyone can develop. 11. According to the passage, what quality did Einstein show? A. Courage B. Curiosity C. Persistence D. Selflessness 12. Why does the writer mention Copernicus? A. To show his scientific discovery B. To explain what courage means C. To prove that great people are curious D. To compare him with Einstein 13. How many medicines did Tu Youyou's team test before finding artemisinin? A. About 200 B. About 2,000 C. About 20,000 D. About 2 million 14. What does "selflessness" mean in the passage? A. Working hard for yourself B. Being talented in science C. Working for others rather than yourself D. Being brave and curious 15. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Only scientists can be great people. B. Great qualities are born, not developed. C. Anyone can develop the qualities of great people. D. Great people always make money from their work. Part IV 词汇运用（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 用所给词的适当形式填空。 1.
