　　What makes one a great person The legendary volleyball coach Lang Ping gave the answer in the documentary The Iron Hammer,titled after her nickname for her powerful strikes.
The documentary features Lang’s inspiring journey from her gold medal victory as a volleyball player in the 1984 Olympics to her unparalleled (无可比拟的) career as a successful coach for both the USA from 2005 to 2008 and China since 2013.She led the US to a silver medal finish and China to a gold medal triumph in the 2008 and 2016 Olympic Games,making her the first person to win Olympic volleyball gold as a player and coach.
Lang Ping revealed the secret to such remarkable achievements in the documentary.“I believe volleyball is my destiny,” she said.
But glory and challenges go hand in hand. Troubled by severe injuries to her cervical vertebra(颈椎),back,waist and knees,caused by intense exercise and hard work,she has undergone more than 10 surgeries.“No parts of my body function well,” she joked.
But illness is certainly not the only difficulty Lang has faced throughout her career.In 2005,she struggled with balancing raising her daughter Lydia Bai,who lived in the US,and her coaching career,according to China Sports Daily.She eventually decided to work for USA Volleyball that year and this decision aroused a lot of negative comments back in China.
“I’m proud of being Chinese,” Lang responded in an interview.Later,she returned to head the Chinese women’s volleyball team in 2013,leading the team successfully defending its World Cup crown with a perfect record of 11 straight wins.
There is no doubt that Lang is one of the greatest players and coaches in history.As an athlete commented in the documentary,“Lang Ping is like Michael Jordan in our minds.”

　　The national outpouring of grief (悲痛) at the death of two legendary academicians(院士),as if people had lost beloved members of their own families,offers much food for thought.
At 1:02 pm on 22 May,2021,liver surgeon Wu Mengchao,99,died in Shanghai.He is known as the founder of hepatobiliary surgery (肝胆外科) in the country and was the teacher of roughly 80 per cent of the nation’s experts and doctors specialising in liver surgery today.Wu operated on thousands of patients,and saved at least 16,000 lives.Five minutes later in Changsha,Hunan Province,agricultural scientist Yuan Longping died at the age of 91.He was known as “the father of hybrid rice” who helped lift the nation out of hunger.
With their dedication to science and commitment to the people,the two devoted their lives to saving lives and improving people’s livelihoods.Together with generations of their students,
they not only made a big difference to the lives of the Chinese people,but also many living in other developing and least-developed countries.
Wu insisted that medical science is humanity while Yuan’s lifelong dream was always to enable the Chinese people to fill their own bowls with rice.What makes Wu and Yuan great is not only their achievements,but also their shared attachment to the people.The public’s spontaneous (自发的) outpouring of grief at their deaths,which has been rare in the country for decades,shows how much their down-to-earth dedication to improving people’s lives touched hearts throughout the country.
Yuan and Wu are just two representatives of the large numbers of scientific workers that have devoted their lives to their research,giving the country’s people-centred development principle with more practical meaning.The country needs more scientists to inherit and carry forward their spirit.Even those in other walks of life can draw inspiration from the two academicians’ commitment to their dreams,care for the people,and unconcern about material enjoyment,so as to make the best of what life grants for themselves and others.
【语篇导读】 本文是新闻报道。文章主要报道了中国两位传奇院士吴孟超、袁隆平的逝世并呼吁科学家及其他各行各业的人向他们学习。
(　　)1.Which two fields do Wu Mengchao and Yuan Longping specialise in
[A]Education and agriculture.
[B]Medicine and social science.
[C]Education and social science.
[D]Hepatobiliary surgery and agriculture.
(　　)2.What does the underlined word “dedication” in Paragraph 3 mean
[A]Devotion. [B]Influence.
[C]Exploration. [D]Respect.
(　　)3.Why did the academicians’ death grieve the whole nation
[A]Because the modern Internet helped to spread the news.
[B]Because Wu and Yuan are well known over the country.
[C]Because people think it necessary to follow the sorrowful trend.
[D]Because they made great contributions and shared selfless love to the people.
(　　)4.What’s the best title for the text
[A]A Sorrowful Weekend
[B]Let Their Scientific Spirit Live on
[C]Two Great Academicians Passed Away
[D]The Great Contributions of Two Great ScientistsUnit 2　课时作业(四)

　　Born in Wuzhen in Zhejiang,Qian Lihuai has a unique bond with bamboo and whether it’s in the form of indoor bamboo bonsai or backyard bamboo groves,the material is an essential element in his home.
Qian grew up in the village known for its bamboo weaving and after studying industrial design at the Zhejiang University of Science and Technology,he began to develop an interest in the technique,learning how to do it himself.
He also travelled widely in Hunan,Hubei,Sichuan and Yunnan provinces to learn local bamboo weaving techniques.“The variations are quite large in amount across the regions,and bamboo weaving comes in a wide range of forms.It’s sometimes used to make agricultural tools,sometimes to make daily necessities,and sometimes for artistic purposes,” Qian said.“In Wuzhen,each place focuses on producing a specific item.For instance,our village’s distinguishing feature is in making bamboo trays especially for raising silkworms.”
During a visit to a traditional basket maker in Shengzhou,Zhejiang,Qian saw that instead of using nails to fasten the basket together,the craftsman used a slanting (倾斜的) cut on the bamboo to create a precise fit that caused the joint to not be noticed.“I rarely encounter such a level of craftsmanship.He even creates small molds and modifies tools himself to improve the weaving process,” Qian says.
During his visits,he was moved by the dedication of the weavers to their craft.These experiences inspired him to return to his hometown of Wuzhen and throw himself into the bamboo weaving industry in 2013.
Bamboo techniques he has developed or improved are now widely used in everything from home furnishings to clothing,which is part of a growing trend towards replacing the use of plastic with bamboo,demonstrating the continuity of the traditional Chinese culture in which bamboo has long been cherished as a topic for arts and a material for daily objects that we use in our homes.

　　What makes one a great person The legendary volleyball coach Lang Ping gave the answer in the documentary The Iron Hammer,titled after her nickname for her powerful strikes.
The documentary features Lang’s inspiring journey from her gold medal victory as a volleyball player in the 1984 Olympics to her unparalleled (无可比拟的) career as a successful coach for both the USA from 2005 to 2008 and China since 2013.She led the US to a silver medal finish and China to a gold medal triumph in the 2008 and 2016 Olympic Games,making her the first person to win Olympic volleyball gold as a player and coach.
Lang Ping revealed the secret to such remarkable achievements in the documentary.“I believe volleyball is my destiny,” she said.
But glory and challenges go hand in hand. Troubled by severe injuries to her cervical vertebra(颈椎),back,waist and knees,caused by intense exercise and hard work,she has undergone more than 10 surgeries.“No parts of my body function well,” she joked.
But illness is certainly not the only difficulty Lang has faced throughout her career.In 2005,she struggled with balancing raising her daughter Lydia Bai,who lived in the US,and her coaching career,according to China Sports Daily.She eventually decided to work for USA Volleyball that year and this decision aroused a lot of negative comments back in China.
“I’m proud of being Chinese,” Lang responded in an interview.Later,she returned to head the Chinese women’s volleyball team in 2013,leading the team successfully defending its World Cup crown with a perfect record of 11 straight wins.
There is no doubt that Lang is one of the greatest players and coaches in history.As an athlete commented in the documentary,“Lang Ping is like Michael Jordan in our minds.”

　　The national outpouring of grief (悲痛) at the death of two legendary academicians(院士),as if people had lost beloved members of their own families,offers much food for thought.
At 1:02 pm on 22 May,2021,liver surgeon Wu Mengchao,99,died in Shanghai.He is known as the founder of hepatobiliary surgery (肝胆外科) in the country and was the teacher of roughly 80 per cent of the nation’s experts and doctors specialising in liver surgery today.Wu operated on thousands of patients,and saved at least 16,000 lives.Five minutes later in Changsha,Hunan Province,agricultural scientist Yuan Longping died at the age of 91.He was known as “the father of hybrid rice” who helped lift the nation out of hunger.
With their dedication to science and commitment to the people,the two devoted their lives to saving lives and improving people’s livelihoods.Together with generations of their students,
they not only made a big difference to the lives of the Chinese people,but also many living in other developing and least-developed countries.
Wu insisted that medical science is humanity while Yuan’s lifelong dream was always to enable the Chinese people to fill their own bowls with rice.What makes Wu and Yuan great is not only their achievements,but also their shared attachment to the people.The public’s spontaneous (自发的) outpouring of grief at their deaths,which has been rare in the country for decades,shows how much their down-to-earth dedication to improving people’s lives touched hearts throughout the country.
Yuan and Wu are just two representatives of the large numbers of scientific workers that have devoted their lives to their research,giving the country’s people-centred development principle with more practical meaning.The country needs more scientists to inherit and carry forward their spirit.Even those in other walks of life can draw inspiration from the two academicians’ commitment to their dreams,care for the people,and unconcern about material enjoyment,so as to make the best of what life grants for themselves and others.
【语篇导读】 本文是新闻报道。文章主要报道了中国两位传奇院士吴孟超、袁隆平的逝世并呼吁科学家及其他各行各业的人向他们学习。
(　　)1.Which two fields do Wu Mengchao and Yuan Longping specialise in

(　　)2.What does the underlined word “dedication” in Paragraph 3 mean
[A]Devotion. [B]Influence.

【答案】 A
【解析】 猜测词义题。根据画线词所在句可知,画线词应和and后面的commitment(奉献)为同义词或近义词,再结合后文的“devoted their lives(奉献了他们的一生)”可推知,该词是“奉献,贡献”的意思。故选A。
(　　)3.Why did the academicians’ death grieve the whole nation
[A]Because the modern Internet helped to spread the news.
[B]Because Wu and Yuan are well known over the country.
[C]Because people think it necessary to follow the sorrowful trend.
