In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America’s beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut (首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. Critics quickly spoke out, calling her early performance a disappointment for the No. 1 overall pick.
But the struggles didn’t last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever’s fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year’s total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark’s leadership that powered the team’s comeback. Against Seattle, Clark finished with 23 points, five rebounds and nine assists, but it’s her confidence that leaps out. The former Hawkeye has regained not just her shot, but her charisma (魅力) and control. On the court, almost all of the action is again flowing through her as she creates opportunities for others. Her vision — her ability to find teammates moving quickly up the court — remains impressively precise.
By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women’s basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark’s play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. Though Paris gold was still won by the U.S., I agree with Staley: a chance to lift the sport was missed. Oh well. Clark will use the rejection for fuel, and Los Angeles 2028 awaits her.
Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark’s comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league’s ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory — Clark is ready for even greater success.
24. What caused Clark’s poor performance at the start of her WNBA career
A. A stronger opponent. B. Pressure from critics.
C. A shift of environment. D. Her decline in fitness.
25. What was the key to the Fever’s win over the Storm
A. Clark’s competence in leading. B. Clark’s adjustments in strategy.
C. Fever’s enhancement in teamwork. D. Storm’s turnaround in performance.
26. What is Staley’s attitude to Clark
A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Unconcerned. D. Supportive.
27. Which of the following words best describe Clark
A. Adaptable and determined. B. Considerate and resourceful.
C. Talented and patient. D. Creative and confident.
C
During a judging period for a recent short story contest, I started thinking a lot about dialogue tags. Because in many submissions characters didn’t “say” a thing. They shouted, they inquired, they assumed. Some characters screamed while others murmured. But no one “said” anything. And I started wondering why.
Why do we tell beginner writers to avoid creative dialogue tags in the first place Why do we insist that characters should stick to “said,” “asked,” and the occasional “sighed ” And, if the advice is so oft-repeated, why are writers still unable to resist the siren call of weep, scream, snap, or laugh
The more I thought about it, the more I understood the temptation. We’re always encouraged to use strong, actionable verbs in our prose. Why walk when you can skip or wander Why cry when you can sob or weep Why wouldn’t we reach for exciting verbs instead of mild-boring dull-blah said Why couldn’t each verb be a tiny sparkling gem in its own right
The problem, I think, is that every jewel needs a setting to become something more than the sum of its parts. Without something to provide structure, a collection of the world’s most glorious diamonds would still only amount to a heap of rocks.
And a dialogue tag should never, ever be the diamond in any given sentence.
Dialogue is your diamond, friends. When we read your work, your dialogue should be so bright, so sparkling, so lifelike, so wonderfully realistic that our brains “hear” each line instead of merely reading it. We don’t need to be told a character is shouting — we can sense it in the way they spit out words, clench fists, or storm from the room.
A dialogue tag is a mere signpost along the narrative journey, gently indicating who said what. It’s part of a story’s experience, but it’s not part of the story itself, nor should it be treated as such. Dialogue tags are similar to lighting in a Broadway play: without it, the audience would have no idea what was going on, but it usually strives to shine without calling too much attention to itself.
What’s more, readers may not initially imagine a particular line being “sobbed.” When we reach the end of a sentence and find out our leading lady has actually sobbed instead of whispered, it pulls us right out of the story. We pause. We reread the line. We adjust our understanding and begin again. But that wonderful momentum when we’re fully immersed in the scene, holding our breath to find out what our heroine says next, is lost.
Creating a successful work of fiction is about giving the reader all the materials they need to build your fictional, world in their mind and not a scrap more. Readers need believable dialogue. They need voices so compelling that they pop right off the page and into our ears. And if you’ve created dynamic characters who speak words we can really hear, you will never need to tell us how something was said.
Senior Editor
28. According to the Senior Editor, the beginner writers are tempted to
A. replace a dull “said” with exciting verbs B. omit what the character said in a dialogue
C. resist the warning against strong emotions D. overuse the word “said” in their submissions
29. The Senior Editor compares dialogue tags to ____________.
A. glorious diamonds B. heaps of rocks
C. tiny. sparkling gems D. Broadway play lighting
30. What can be inferred about the dialogue tags in a novel
A. The dialogue tag “say” can help keep readers immersed in the plot.
B. Effective dialogue tags should describe character’s emotion directly.
C. Dialogue tags are said to be the most important aspect of storytelling.
D. A dialogue tag indicates a character’s way of speech is part of narration.
31. The writer most probably agrees that ____________.
A. writers should choose dynamic words for dialogue tags
B good works of fiction give as many materials as possible
C. readers can not imagine a line without the dialogue tags
D. what was said should be prioritized over how it was said
D
For the first time ever, a powerful laser (激光) beam from Earth has reportedly hit a target deep in space. It could be the key to lightning-fast space communication in the future.
Imagine trying to aim at something a distance of a strand (股) of hair from a distance of 10km. That’s roughly equivalent to what Chinese researchers have achieved, using a laser in space to target a distant satellite orbiting the Moon.
Aerospace engineers of the Beijing-based Academy of Sciences have struck a satellite with an infrared (红外) laser in broad daylight and across a distance of 130,000km. The powerful laser beam hit a reflector on Tiandu-1, a Chinese lunar navigation and communications test satellite, which was launched in March 2024: The signal was returned to Earth in less than a second, captured by a telescope in Yunnan in South-Western China.
It is the first time ever that engineers have managed to accurately locate and measure a satellite so far away and to do so in daylight, when sunlight usually interferes with measurements. In similar earlier efforts, researchers had been able to collect data for only short periods of time. But by demonstrating that the technology also works in sunlight, the researchers have now shown that the method could enable much more frequent and accurate measurements in space.
The method could also be used to revolutionize communications in space. Currently we use radio waves to send messages to places such as Mars, but lasers could send greatly increased quantities of data in the same time.
The technology could pave the way for lightning-fast contact with future bases on the Moon — and perhaps one day on Mars. Stable laser links in space can reportedly send data to and from Earth up to 100 times faster than can radio waves, perhaps an important boost to communication with future astronauts on the Moon and Mars.
32. What did the Chinese researchers successfully make the laser beam reach
A. A lunar base under construction.
B. A Mars exploration spacecraft.
C. A reflective device on a test satellite.
D. A ground telescope in Yunnan.
33. What makes the Chinese engineers’ achievement particularly remarkable
A. Locating a so-distant satellite precisely in daylight.
B. Launching a Moon-orbiting satellite 130,000 km away.
C. Getting the signal returned to Earth in a second.
D. Using an infrared laser for the first time successfully.
34 What can be inferred about radio waves in space communication
A. They are unable to reach Mars from Earth.
B. They will soon be replaced by laser technology.
C. They have lower data transmission capacity than lasers.
D. They are more easily interfered with by sunlight than lasers.
35. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text
A. A Historic Laser Strike: Targeting the Moon
B. Tiandu-1 Satellite: Bridging Earth and the Moon
C. Radio Waves: The Future of Space Communication
D. China’s Laser: A Leap for Deep-Space Communication

Today I turn eight, so whatever I say goes.
Grandma was gardening when we pulled up for the party. I ran straight to her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!” She squeezed me into a hug, whispering about my favorite chocolate-strawberry cake she had made, and her intention to persuade my parents to let me play video games, which hadn’t happened since I was six. Then, I noticed Grandpa, who, contrary to my grandma, always sits outside and complains that the air isn’t as fresh as it is in the mountains where he used to go hiking for days when he was young, and that kids have no respect, claiming that all they do is play video games. Now on the porch sat Grandpa, like a sack of wrinkled onions, asleep in a rocking chair, snoring like thunder, on his only grandson’s birthday!
“Wake up, sleepyhead!” I mounted the porch steps, only to be greeted by more snores. “Fine,” I groaned, “we’ll have the cake without you!” It was Grandma’s request to wait ten more minutes that brought me to tears. An angry hurricane was spinning up inside me, and I exploded. My fists clenched, I had been sobbing and screaming until Dad held my shoulder firmly. Mom touched my hair, instructing me to take a deep breath and relax.
Finally, Grandpa was awake, coughing, snorting, and squinting right at me like an angry goat. “Boy,” he spoke in a rough, low voice, “come here.” He was struggling to his feet when Grandma hurried over with his walker, which Grandpa usually pushes at about 0.3 miles per hour. “You and I,” said Grandpa, “are going on a walk.” “NO!” I shouted. “You can’t tell me what to do!” But Grandpa kept looking at me with that scary look on his face. Not even Grandma came to my rescue. Unwilling as I was, I gave in and dragged myself forward. Then we were inching down the path into the garden. I expected him to lecture me-about ceasing to be a spoiled child and respecting my elders, blah, blah, blah. Instead, he asked in a soft voice whether my parents were very busy. I was too confused to respond.

(1)续写词数应为150左右:
