It can “hear” sounds from deep s 8 . Sadly, Nan Rendong died in 2017, one year l 9 . He did not live long enough to see all its great d 10 , but people will remember him forever. Passage 2 My grandfather is a man with a strong will. He was b 1 in a poor family and had to work hard from a young age. He always tells me the story of how he became a doctor. When he was 18, he d 2 to become a doctor. But his family couldn’t a 3 to send him to medical school. Instead of g 4 up, he worked during the day and studied at night. He saved every penny he could.

Passage 3 13-year-old Chinese girl Yu Zidi shone in the swimming pool at the 20th Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. The teenager won three gold medals at her first Asian Games. She is r 1 as a rising swimming star by a wide audience. Her excellent performance made her the youngest MVP in Asian Games history. Yu was born in Baoding, Hebei Province in 2012. Her swimming story started by accident. W 2 she was six years old, she went to a water park with her father. Her coach Li Chao found that swimming could s 3 her natural talent in water. From then on, she went to the pool to train every day after school. The road to success was never smooth. The difficulties she faced were beyond many people’s i 4 . She once suffered from huge s 5 from training and schoolwork. At that time, she felt so tired that she even considered giving up swimming. With encouragement from her parents and coaches, she chose to face the challenge b 6 . She managed to achieve a balance between training and her lessons and stayed f 7 on every practice. Little by little, her efforts paid off. “I am confident in m 8 . I will keep improving my skills and compete in the Olympic Games one day.” Yu said to a reporter from China Daily. Yu’s growth tells us t 9 talent alone cannot bring success. It is perseverance and courage that help us go t 10 difficulties and move forward. 培优拔高·挑战攻坚 Passage 1 Life is full of challenges. The saying “Never say die” has been p 1 by many people who have overcome great hardships to achieve their dreams. These ordinary yet extraordinary people s 2 as shining examples for anyone facing difficult times. Take Stephen Hawking. Shortly after his 21st birthday, while studying physics at Cambridge, he was told he had a rare disease. Doctors gave him only two years to live. The cruel disease g 3 deprived him of the ability to move, speak, and even breathe on his own. Yet he refused to s 4 to his fate. Instead, he poured all his energy into his research on black holes. His book A Brief History of Time became a global bestseller, p 5 in over 40 languages. Another example is Kieran Behan, an Irish gymnast. At 10, a serious operation left him unable to walk. But instead of giving up, he made a c 6 to fight back. He spent years in painful therapy, waking up at 5 a.m. every day. His parents were amazed by his strong s 7 . These stories teach us that we should always b 8 in ourselves. With a p 9 mindset and a strong will, we can overcome anything. As Einstein said, “Failure is success in progress.” The future b 10 to those who never give up. Passage 2 Everyone wants to achieve s 1 in life, but not everyone can make it. Why? Because some people give up easily when they meet c 2 . A boy named Jack loved painting, but he was very poor. He couldn’t afford painting materials. However, he didn’t g 3 up. He collected old paper and used charcoal to draw. Every day, he p 4 painting for several hours. Once, he entered a painting competition. He didn’t win the first prize, but he didn’t feel sad. He thought it was a good chance to i 5 his skills. Years later, Jack became a f 6 painter. His works were loved by many people. When someone asked him the secret of his success, he said, “Never give up. Keep t 7 and you will reach your goal.” In fact, no one can succeed o 8 . Every success comes from hard work and p 9 . So whenever you meet difficulties, remember: don’t give up, and success will be w 10 for you. Passage 3 Everyone wants to achieve success, but not everyone knows how to keep going when facing d 1 . Here is a story about a young runner. He loved running but he was not born with great s 2 . He often failed in races, but he never gave up. Every morning, he got up early to p 3 running. Even when it rained heavily, he still kept t 4 himself. His parents were worried about his health, but he told them he would k 5 on. One year later, he took part in a national race. During the race, his foot hurt badly, but he didn’t stop. He kept running u 6 he crossed the finish line. He didn’t win the first prize, but he won people’s r 7 . Many people were touched by his s 8 and perseverance. This story tells us that success doesn’t come e 9 . We need to keep trying and never give up. No matter what h 10 , we should hold on to our dreams. Passage 4 Throughout history, many great people have s 1 from immense hardships, yet they never surrendered. Their stories c 2 inspire us to persevere when we encounter difficulties. Helen Keller is a remarkable example. She was d 3 with blindness and deafness at a very young age. However, she didn’t let these disabilities s 4 in her way. With the help of her teacher, she learned to communicate and made great c 5 to society. Thomas Edison is a 6 an inspiring figure. He failed thousands of times before inventing the light bulb. F 7 , his persistence paid off and changed the world. No matter what challenges we face, we should maintain a positive a 8 and a strong will. R 9 the saying: “Failure is the mother of success.” We can a 10 our goals if we refuse to give up. Passage 5 Thomas Edison was one of the greatest inventors in history. He is f 1 for inventing the practical light bulb. But before he succeeded, he failed thousands of times. When someone asked him how he felt about those f 2 , he said they were not failures but valuable lessons. He l 3 a lot from each mistake and kept trying without stopping. Edison’s s 4 didn’t come easily. He spent most of his time working in his lab day and night. He had a s 5 will and never gave up, even when others laughed at his “useless” experiments. He c 6 still continue his research day after day. One day, after hundreds of t 7 , he finally made the light bulb light up. It was a great moment that changed the world. His invention brought bright light to people’s lives. Edison’s story tells us that success r 8 perseverance and hard work. No matter how hard things get, we should never g 9 up. As long as we keep trying and learn from mistakes, we will a 10 our goals in the end. Passage 6 Nick is a famous runner. He started running when he was 8 years old. At first, he was not good at it and often f 1 races. But he never gave up. He practiced every day, even on rainy or snowy days. His parents always e 2 him to keep going. As he grew up, he faced more c 3 . Once, he hurt his leg badly and had to stay in bed for two months. Everyone thought he would s 4 running, but he didn’t. After he got better, he started training even harder. Finally, in an important race, he won the first prize. His success b 5 him great joy and made him well-known. Now, many young people look up to him and take him as their h 6 . Nick often says, “Never give up, and you will a 7 your dream one day.“ Last month, he gave a speech at our school. He told us that every d 8 we meet is a chance to grow. We should not be a 9 of failure. Instead, we should learn from it and try again. His story t 10 us that perseverance is the key to success. Passage 7 Peng Huidi is a swimmer born in Shandong Province in 2004. When she was two years old, a sudden high fever robbed her of most of her hearing, which c 1 changed her life. S 2 from this hearing loss, she was once so shy that she was even afraid to speak to others.
