Never Give Up: Wang Chuqin's Long Road to World Cup Glory
永不言弃：王楚钦的世界杯冠军之路
On April 5, 2026, history was made at the ITTF (国际乒联) Men's and Women's World Cup in Macao. Chinese table tennis player Wang Chuqin defeated (击败) Japanese teenager Matsushima Sora 4-3 in the men's singles final (决赛). At the age of 25, he won his first World Cup title (冠军头衔). After the match, he lay on the blue court with tears in his eyes, covering his face to calm down .
But the road to victory was far from easy. Wang was the only Chinese male player to reach the quarterfinals (四分之一决赛). In the quarterfinals, he was once down 1-3 in games against Slovenia's Darko Jorgi . He turned the match around (扭转局面) by winning three games in a row (连续). In the semifinals (半决赛), he faced Brazil's Hugo Calderano, the defending champion (卫冕冠军) who had beaten him in the same round the year before. This time, Wang won 4-1 and got his "revenge (复仇)". In the final, Wang fell behind 2-3 against 18-year-old Japanese rising star Matsushima Sora, but he never gave up and won the last two games to take the title. The final game scores were 9-11, 18-16, 11-8, 11-13, 8-11, 11-4, 11-8.
Wang Chuqin's journey to this moment has been full of ups and downs . Born in 2000 in Jilin Province, he started playing table tennis at seven and entered the national team at just 13. Over the years, he experienced many heartbreaking losses . At the 2024 Paris Olympics, he lost early in the men's singles. At the 2025 World Cup, he was defeated by Hugo Calderano in the semifinals. Each time, he felt the pain of failure . But Wang never ran away from (逃避) it. Instead, he used these setbacks to push himself harder in training .
After the victory, Wang thanked everyone who had supported (支持) him. He said, "I'm so happy to say this again—This time, I didn't let you down (让你失望)." He also thanked the person he was most grateful to: the never-give-up version of himself from the past.
Wang Chuqin's first World Cup title is not just about winning a trophy (奖杯). It's a story of falling down, getting up, and trying again. He has shown that with hard work and a strong will (意志), one can turn defeats into stepping stones (垫脚石) toward success .

Amy, a middle school student, tried a new way to learn about history — she took an online tour of the China Grand Canal Museum. “My history teacher told us that Yangzhou has a deep connection with the Grand Canal,” Amy said. “Since I couldn’t visit the museum in person, the online tour was a perfect choice.”
The China Grand Canal Museum has a user-friendly website. When Amy entered it, she saw a virtual gate that looked just like the real museum’s entrance. By clicking the mouse, she could “walk” into different exhibition halls. In the “Canal and City Hall”, there were 3D models showing how Yangzhou grew into a busy city because of the Grand Canal. She could even zoom in to look at small details, like old boats and ancient shops along the river.
Amy’s favourite part was the “Virtual Experience Hall”. There, she put on her headphones and watched a short video. It felt like she was sitting on a boat, sailing along the ancient canal and passing Yangzhou’s old bridges. “I could almost hear the water and the sound of people selling snacks by the river,” she said.
The online museum also has a “Knowledge Test” section. After Amy finished her tour, she took a short quiz about the Grand Canal’s history. When she answered a question correctly, a little cartoon character popped up to cheer for her. “It made learning fun, not boring at all,” Amy smiled.
At the end of the tour, Amy saved a digital postcard from the museum. It had a picture of the Grand Canal at sunset. “I want to visit the real museum in person one day,” she said. “But this online tour has already taught me so much about the city’s history.”
( )9. Why did Amy visit the China Grand Canal Museum online
A. Because she didn’t like the real museum. B. Because the online museum was cheaper.
C. Because her teacher asked her to visit it online. D. Because she couldn’t go to the museum in person.
( )10. What can visitors do in the “Canal and City Hall”
A. Talk to a real guide online. B. Take a boat trip on the real canal.
C. Buy snacks from the virtual shops. D. See 3D models of Yangzhou and the Grand Canal.
( )11. What did Amy do in the “Virtual Experience Hall”
A. She taught others about canal history. B. She put on headphones and watched a short video.
C. She saved a digital postcard of the canal. D. She took a short quiz about the canal.

One cold winter evening, Dr Watson sat by the fireplace in 221B Baker Street, reading a newspaper. Sherlock Holmes, as usual, was pacing the room, deep in thought. Suddenly, there was a loud knock at the door. A young woman in an elegant blue dress rushed in, her face pale with worry.
“Mr Holmes, please help me!” she cried. “My diamond necklace was stolen during my birthday party last night! My father gave it to me before he passed away. It’s priceless!”
Holmes calmly invited her to sit. “Tell me everything, Miss… ”
“Clara White,” she replied, wiping her tears. “The party was at my home in Kensington. Only four close friends and my maid were there. I wore the necklace all evening, but when I went to bed, it was gone!”
The Investigation Begins (调查展开)
Holmes and Watson arrived at Clara’s grand townhouse. The drawing room still had decorations from the party—gold ribbons (丝带), half-empty champagne (香槟酒) glasses, and a piano in the corner.
The five people at the party were Clara’s cousin Mr Edward Green, Mrs Emily Brown, the maid Miss Lucy, her neighbor Dr Henry Cole, and a family friend Mr James Hart.
Holmes examined Clara’s bedroom first. The window was slightly open, and icy wind blew through the curtains.
“Did you open this window, Miss White ” Holmes asked.
“Never! I always lock it,” Clara insisted.
“Someone forced it open from the outside,” Holmes muttered. Outside, he found muddy (泥泞的) footprints along the garden wall.
…
The Clues Unfold (线索浮现)
Returning to the piano, Holmes looked through the sheet music. “Mr Green, what did you play at 8 p. m. ”
“Moonlight Sonata,” Green answered quickly.
“Yet the sheet on the stand is Für Elise” Holmes said sharply. “And your shoes—see the mud It matches the garden footprints!”
Green’s face turned red. “I… I needed money! I climbed in through the window and hid the necklace in my coat!”
The Resolution (真相大白)
Holmes took the necklace from Green’s pocket. Clara hugged it tightly, her eyes filled with happy tears. “Thank you, Mr Holmes! How did you know ”
“Simple, my dear,” Holmes said. “The mud matched, and no true pianist forgets his music.” As they left, Watson shook his head in amazement. “Remarkable, Holmes!”
12. How does the story begin to catch the readers’ attention
A. By describing a peaceful winter night. B. By explaining Sherlock Holmes’ daily habits.
C. With a sudden knock and a worried visitor. D. By introducing Clara’s family history.

【导语】本文介绍了春茶在中国文化中的地位、历史、采摘时间、种类、制作过程以及其文化意义和国际影响力。
1．句意：它在中国也被广泛称为“明前茶”。修饰动词known用副词，wide的副词形式是widely，意为“广泛地”。故填widely。
2．句意：这种茶以其新鲜、美味和许多健康益处而闻名。修饰名词freshness应用it的形容词性物主代词its。故填its。
3．句意：在中国古代，皇帝们将春茶视为稀世珍宝。根据“In ancient China”可知，时态为一般过去时，空格处应用see过去式是saw。故填saw。
4．句意：通常春茶是在三月底到五月初采摘的。主语spring tea和动词pick之间是被动关系，应用被动语态（be动词+过去分词），空前已有be动词is，所以空格处应填pick的过去分词picked。故填picked。
5．句意：在此期间，经过漫长的冬季休息，茶叶的气味更好，味道更顺滑。此处应用leaf的复数形式leaves表示泛指。故填leaves。
6．句意：杭州龙井因其扁平的淡绿色叶子和甜美的回味而受到人们的欢迎。because of意为“因为”。故填of。
7．句意：饮用它会带来难忘的体验。此处泛指“一次难忘的体验”，且unforgettable以元音音素开头，空格处应填不定冠词an。故填an。
8．句意：每一道工序都需要精湛的技艺与丰富的经验，以此来保持茶叶的独特品质。根据“Each step requires great skills and rich experience...the special quality of the tea.”可知，每一道工序都需要精湛的技艺和丰富的经验，其目的是保持茶叶的独特品质。应用动词不定式作目的状语，所以空格处应填to keep。故填to keep。
9．句意：当人们聚在一起喝春茶时，他们往往会进行深入的交谈，享受宁静的时刻。根据“...people gather to drink spring tea, they often have deep conversations and enjoy the moment of peace.”可知，空格处缺少表示时间关系的连词，when“当……的时候”符合语境，句首单词，首字母需大写。故填When。
10．句意：它代表了一种中国传统文化，它通过一杯简单的茶承载了中国人民的智慧。空格处缺少形容词修饰名词短语Chinese culture，tradition的形容词形式是traditional。故填traditional。

One possible version
Hi, everyone. I’m a student in Grade 8 from Sunshine Middle School. We will have a Reading Week in our school.
It’s important and necessary for us to read. When we read, it opens our minds to new ideas and worlds. In addition, reading improves our language skills and helps us think more clearly. I read for 30 minutes every night before sleep. I visit our school library weekly to borrow books, and sometimes I buy them from bookstores.
My favourite book is The Little Prince. This fairy tale tells the story of a prince who travels across planets. Through his journey, we learn about love, friendship, and what truly matters in life. Its simple words hide deep meanings that touch my heart every time.
Just read it for yourself! I’m sure you’ll like it. That’s all for my speech. Thank you!
