A tourism project has brought great changes to Nizhuhe Village, a far-away and poor village between Yunnan and Guizhou. It has improved local education and made villagers’ lives better.
In the past, the village was cut off from the outside world. The only way out was rough and wet mountain roads. For students like Chen Honghan, going to school was dangerous. They had to climb cliffs and walk for three hours every day. Villagers could only depend on traditional farming for a basic living.
Since 2017, a tourism project has changed everything. Workers built a tourist bus line, a lift by the cliff and a cable car for free. Now Chen’s school trip takes only 30 minutes. She takes a 6-minute bus, a lift and a cable car, then walks 1 kilometre. The special “cloud school bus” is safe and relaxing. It makes going to school happy.
The project also pushed the local business. In 2024, about 300,000 tourists visited the village and brought nearly 20 million yuan. Many villagers opened small hotels, shops and coffee shops. Some people returned from big cities to start businesses. Roads became cleaner and public services got better. By talking with tourists, villagers learned more about the outside world and picked up new skills.
This tourism project is “a ladder to the clouds” for the mountain students. It gives them better education and bright hopes, and encourages them to study hard and come back to build their hometown.

B．Villagers all worked for tourists.
C．Tourists helped improve local life.
3．Why did some people come back from big cities
A．To run businesses.
B．To visit their old friends.
C．To build roads for tourists.
4．What is the main idea of the passage
A．The village has great changes.
B．The village lies between two provinces.
C．Tourists enjoy the special transport there.
①Do you still remember me, Liangliang, an 11-year-old boy from a small village My friends and I used to go on a ropeway to cross a big river to school.
②Thanks to our government and the nice people, the villagers’ dream has come true. There is a big and wide bridge over the river. Besides, the villagers have lived in the new buildings and worked in the companies in our village.
③As for me, with the love and encouragement from kind people, I had no fear on the way to my dream. Last year I graduated from a university. To follow the call of rural revitalization (乡村振兴), I chose to build my hometown as an engineer with some of my friends. In fact, with the Chinese Dream, great changes have taken place everywhere in China in the last few years. China has also got many achievements such as 5G, high-speed railways, and Beidou Navigation Satellite System.
④Now our government is carrying out a lot of projects such as urban-rural integration (城乡融合) and ecological tourism to improve the quality of people’s life. More and more people would like to return to their hometowns to do some meaningful things.

One evening, Grandpa Chen took out an old photo and showed it to his grandson, Chen Hao. In the photo, a young boy stood in front of a small, dark house. There was no road, only mud.
“This was my home when I was your age,” said Grandpa.“We had no electricity. At night,we studied by an oil lamp.”
Chen Hao was surprised.“But Grandpa, our village is so different now! We have bright lights, good roads, and a big school.”
“Yes,” Grandpa smiled. “Sixty years is a long time. When I was young, I had to walk two hours to school. Now you can take the bus in ten minutes. I am glad you live in a better time.”
Chen Hao looked at the photo again. Then he said, “Grandpa, I will study hard. One day, I want to help make our village even better.”

Over the past decades (数十年), many people have made great contributions (贡献) to our country’s development, helping it grow through their hard work. Eight people received the Medal of the Republic (共和国勋章) on October 1st, 2019. They are heroes. Now let’s learn about four of them.
On June 17, 1967, China detonated (引爆) its first hydrogen bomb (氢弹). It took only 32 months to go from its first atom bomb (原子弹) to its first hydrogen bomb. As a nuclear physicist, Yu Min played an important role in this process. The theories (理论) and models he created were key to the successful test.
Zhang was a soldier in the People’s Liberation Army during the Liberation War. He was twice awarded the title of Combat Hero (战斗英雄). In 1955, he volunteered to work in a remote (偏远的) county in Hubei Province and helped poor people there ever since.
Yuan devoted himself to agricultural (农业的) education and research. He is the first person in the world to develop a hybrid rice strain (杂交水稻品种). His research on higher rice yields (产量) helps fight hunger in China and other parts of the world.
Tu is known for winning the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015. She got inspiration (灵感) from traditional Chinese medicine theories and discovered artemisinin (青蒿素), a medicine that can be used to treat malaria (疟疾). Her finding has saved the lives of millions.

Chen-Ning Yang, a world-famous scientist who won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1957, passed away on 18 October 2025, at the age of 103.
Yang was born in 1922 and moved to Beijing with his family in 1929. He began his university studies in 1938 and received his Master of Science degree from Tsinghua University in 1944. In 1945, he went to the US for further study. After getting his doctor’s degree (博士学位), he continued his physics research and achieved great achievements.
Yang is still considered one of the greatest physicists of the 20th century. Together with Tsung-Dao Lee, Yang was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957. In 1971, Yang made his way back to China. His return encouraged many overseas scientists to do the same, building a bridge for academic (学术的) exchanges between China and the US. Moreover, he offered advice and had a great influence on China’s scientific projects.
Yang also attached importance to training young people. In 1999, he began teaching at Tsinghua University. At the age of 82, Yang still taught four classes a week. Besides teaching, he also gave away his money to support nearly 100 Chinese scientists. These scientists later played important roles in China’s scientific and technological development. Yang said, “My main goal here is to help Tsinghua University train young people and to guide them to follow the right path in study and research. It is a goal worth achieving.”
“Being down-to-earth (务实的) and simple” is Yang’s life rule, as well as his expectation for China’s scientific development. As students, we should follow his example and study hard to serve our country.

Starry nights, sunflowers, and vivid self-portraits (自画像)—these are the features of Vincent Van Gogh, one of the world’s most famous artists. Though his work is now well-known worldwide, his life was filled with hardships and misunderstanding.
Born in 1853 in a small Dutch village, Van Gogh was a serious and sensitive (敏感的) child. He loved to draw, and his work showed talent, but no one encouraged him to become an artist. Instead, his father thought he should take a proper job. Then the young man changed from job to job with little success and very little money, becoming more upset with each failure. In March 1880, however, just before his 27th birthday, something changed inside Van Gogh. He realized that he was meant to be a painter.
In 1886, Van Gogh moved to Paris, hoping to learn about the colour methods being used by Impressionist (印象派) artists there. Instead of grays and browns, his work began to use blue and red, and then yellow and orange. Soon he began to see life differently: go slow. Stop thinking. Look around. You’ll see something beautiful if you open yourself. These were the rules that guided his art. With his creative colour uses, Van Gogh wanted to show others how to better appreciate (欣赏) a flower, the night sky, or a person’s face.
However, few who lived in Van Gogh’s time appreciated his work. Many laughed when seeing his paintings, which hurt the artist terribly. Van Gogh’s mental (精神的) health got worse sharply. In the spring of 1889, he was sent to a mental hospital, where he painted the world-famous painting The Starry Night during periods of calm. “Working on my pictures,” he wrote, “is almost necessary for me to get better.”
In 1890, at 37, he died, having sold only one painting in his lifetime. Over a century after his death, Van Gogh remains highly popular, as people find pieces of themselves in him. This may also explain the high prices paid for Van Gogh’s work. When we buy one of Van Gogh’s paintings, we are not just buying art—we are buying a piece of his story.
24．What can we learn about Van Gogh from the second paragraph
A．He made lots of money from his early jobs.
B．He decided to paint when he was in his thirties.
C．He had no drawing talent when he was little.
D．He didn’t get family support to work as an artist.

B．He believed great paintings could keep away all illnesses.
C．Painting was the only way for him to make a living.
D．He created few artworks during his stay in hospital.

Everyone has their own preferred way of learning. Knowing your learning style can help you study better. Here are four common kinds of learners and some advice for each.
Visual (视觉的) learners
Visual learners understand ideas through pictures, maps and charts (图表). They like colourful notes. If you are a visual learner, try using coloured pens, drawing mind maps or watching videos to help you study.
Auditory (听觉的) learners
These learners study by listening and talking. ________ They may not take notes during a speech so that they can focus better. If you are an auditory learner, you can listen to recordings, join study groups and read your notes aloud to learn better.
Reading/Writing learners
These learners enjoy reading and writing. They learn well by reading books, taking notes and writing articles. They may also have tidy handwriting. If this is your style, try rewriting your notes and reading more materials to understand better.
Kinesthetic (动觉的) learners
Kinesthetic learners learn by doing. They enjoy hands-on activities, role-playing or touching objects while studying. They are full of energy and may find it hard to sit still for a long time. If you learn this way, try walking around to stay focused while studying.
No matter what your learning style is, using the right method can make learning easier. Try to find the best way for you!

I used to struggle with memorizing English words. Every night, I wrote them again and again, but the next day, I forgot most of them. I felt frustrated and wanted to give up.
One day, my friend Lisa saw me studying and said, “Why don’t you try using mind maps ” She explained that instead of just copying words, I could group them by topic and draw simple pictures. I decided to give it a try.
That evening, I took the word “weather” and drew a sun, a cloud, and rain. Around each picture, I wrote related words like sunny, cloudy, and rainy. Then I added more words like temperature and storm. The map looked colourful and fun. To my surprise, when I reviewed it the next morning, I remembered almost all the words.
Encouraged, I started making mind maps for other topics — food, sports, and even grammar rules. Studying became less boring. I also began to understand how words connected to each other.
A month later, I took a vocabulary test. I scored 95 — my highest ever! I realized that the right method makes all the difference. Now, I still use mind maps, and I even teach my classmates how to make them. Learning is no longer a chore; it’s something I enjoy.

Last year, my grandpa showed me an old tin box (锡盒). Inside were black and white photos, a ticket from his first train ride, and a dried flower from my grandma’s garden.
“These are my memory keepers,” he said. “When I forget a name, I open the box. The photos talk to me.” I liked the idea, so I started doing the same. I kept a “memory jar” on my desk. Every Friday, I wrote one good thing on a small piece of paper — “my friend Ben helped me with my English” “saw a rainbow after the rain” “learned 20 new words”. Then I gently rolled (卷) them up and put them into my memory jar. When exam stress hit me, I read what I wrote. Suddenly the heavy week felt lighter.
One day, Ben laughed at the jar. “That’s silly,” he said. But a month later, he failed an English test and looked sad. I handed him my jar. He picked up one of the papers. It happened to be (恰巧是) the one that said “my friend Ben helped me with my English”. At that moment, he smiled and whispered (小声说), “Maybe silly things aren’t silly.”
Now Ben has his own jar. Grandpa was right — happy memories are not just the past. They are little lights for the future.

More than 200 years ago, Wang Zhenyi studied the Moon and stars with simple tools and careful thinking. Today, Chinese scientists are still exploring the universe, but they now have much more powerful tools. One of the most important is FAST, also called the “China Sky Eye”.
FAST is a huge radio telescope (望远镜) in Guizhou Province. It sits in a natural bowl-shaped area and is about as large as 30 football fields. Unlike our eyes, FAST does not “see” stars directly. Instead, it receives very weak radio signals (信号) from space. The mountains around it help keep unwanted signals out from cities, making the place good for listening to the universe.
In its first ten years, FAST discovered more than 1,300 pulsars (脉冲星), far more than other telescopes did during the same period. Scientists have also used FAST to study fast radio bursts — short but powerful signals from deep space. In January 2026, FAST helped an international team learn more about where these unusual signals may come from.
FAST is also becoming stronger. A larger project called the Core Array (核心阵) is now being developed. It will add 24 smaller 40-metre antennas (天线) around FAST. These antennas will be placed at different points around the main telescope and work together with it. FAST will remain at the centre, while the smaller antennas collect more information from space. The information they collect together will help scientists get a much clearer “picture” of the universe.
From Wang Zhenyi’s small experiments to today’s huge telescope, the tools of astronomy have changed greatly. What has not changed is human curiosity. As FAST continues to grow, scientists may be able to answer questions that once seemed impossible.
40．How does the writer start the passage
A．By asking several questions about the universe.
B．By comparing two ways of studying the Moon.
C．By telling the life story of a female Chinese scientist.
D．By introducing FAST with an earlier scientist’s work.
41．Why is the place in Guizhou suitable for FAST
A．Its unusual shape helps FAST see stars directly.
B．Its cities send very strong radio signals nearby.
C．Its mountains keep unwanted signals out from cities.
D．Its mountains make weak space signals stronger.
42．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How FAST receives signals from space.
B．What FAST has achieved in space research.
C．Why FAST works longer than other telescopes.
D．How FAST works with an international team.
43．Which picture best shows the future Core Array
A． B． C． D．
44．What will the writer most probably talk about next
A．How Wang Zhenyi carried out her early tests.
B．What new questions scientists may study with FAST.
C．How engineers built the Core Array around FAST.
D．Why radio telescopes are built in very quiet places.
Unlike what you may imagine, taking good care of a plant can be difficult, especially when it comes to how to water a plant. Many people are not sure how often or how much they need to water their plants. Even some farmers may have the same problem. Luckily, a new technology called GrowStream can help them “talk” to their plants.
GrowStream is a watering system. Its tubes (管子) have special tiny holes in them. When plants need water, they will release (释放) chemicals (化学物质) through their roots. When the holes detect (察觉) these chemicals, they will open. The plants then get water from these holes. As the plants “drink” enough water, they stop releasing these chemicals. And that “tells” the holes to close back up and stop watering.
This system can help save 45 to 50 percent more water than common watering systems. It was created by a company called RDI. The company has brought the GrowStream system to many farms in South Africa. It is also testing the system in the US. It will be used to make the city greener while saving more water.
“GrowStream is more than just a technology,” said Jan Gould, CEO of RDI. “We want it to ‘talk’ to people, too. It says two things: The earth’s natural resources (资源) are not so much, and we should take better care of the planet through new technology.”
45．Why is it difficult to water a plant
A．Plants need too much water.
B．It is hard to discover whether the plant needs water.
C．Watering a plant takes too much time.
D．Some farmers don’t teach you how to water a plant.
46．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A．Plants. B．Holes. C．Chemicals. D．Tubes.
47．What does Jan Gould mean by saying the words
A．The earth is heavily polluted.
B．People can talk with GrowStream.
C．We have to find more natural resources.
D．New technology can help save natural resources.
48．What’s the writer’s opinion of GrowStream
A．GrowStream will surely take the place of all common watering systems soon.
B．More countries may try this new watering technology in the future.
C．Plants can send water to tubes by releasing chemicals.
D．GrowStream can help plants grow faster and become stronger.
A 14-year-old Chinese teenager Jia Mingxuan from Inner Mongolia (内蒙古) created a game-changing machine for dry lands. It collects tiny water drops from the air, using special cooling materials to turn wet air into water. Then it stores and feeds water to tree roots.
Jia got the idea when he watched local trees die from long droughts (旱灾) during a family visit. His hometown lies near Horqin Sandy Land, where trees can’t get enough water from nature. Sandstorms often hit the area, making it even harder for trees to grow. To protect the trees, villagers there need to water the trees every day, but the work is tiring. In 2023, Jia began to design a machine to collect water and help the trees live. With the support from his teachers and father, he tested and improved his design. He tried using different kinds of materials, but he failed again and again. Finally, he made it with cheap tubes (水管) and old bottles. The machine can work automatically, saving people’s efforts. Jia’s invention was a great success. His work won the Gold Award in the Youth Group at the 2025 Nuremberg International Invention Show, one of the world’s top three invention events. When he received the prize, he said he hoped his simple machine could help more trees grow well in dry areas.
Now over 300 trees in his hometown’s dry land are growing well with this machine. The machine can work day and night, and it needs no electricity. The materials are easy to get and cost very little. It has so many advantages that it can be widely used in more dry places. Villagers nearby have come to see how it works and asked for more information about it. Many scientists say this teen’s small work can bring big green changes to dry parts of the world.

Since ancient times, some people around the world have dreamed of leaving Earth to explore other worlds. With the increase in space travel, you may also want to be a space tourist one day. If you’re considering travelling to space, then you’ll need to read our “out-of-this-world” advice first. Here’s what you need to know.
It’s a good idea to go to the gym. If you want to experience zero gravity (重力), you need to be physically fit. You don’t have to be as fit as an athlete, just healthy. The trip will influence your body. For this reason, you’d better go to the hospital and ask a doctor to check your body first.
▲ Most space tourist flights will only give you a few minutes in zero gravity, so plan what you’re going to do because you don’t want to waste time. Take some time to look out of the window and enjoy the view, even if you feel like turning in circles or acting like you’re flying.
When you’re in zero gravity, there’s no force pulling you down like on Earth, and you might feel a bit sick, so be prepared for that. Also, when you leave Earth atmosphere (大气层), there will be strong forces pushing and pulling you. If you have travel sickness, take some medicine with you!
Remember, space travel is exciting but needs a lot of preparation. Whether it’s staying fit or getting ready for zero gravity, every step is important. So, before you start your space journey, make sure you are fully prepared for the adventure ahead.
54．What do you need to do first for space travel according to Paragraph 2
A．Become an athlete. B．Go to the gym and see a doctor.
C．Try to avoid travel sickness. D．Learn to stay in zero gravity for hours.
55．Which of the following can we put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 3
A．Plan your time in zero gravity carefully. B．Don’t forget to take a camera with you.
C．Why not learn more about space travel D．Try to discuss your travel plans with a friend.
56．What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A．Pulling you down to the Earth. B．Turning in circles in the sky.
C．Feeling sick in zero gravity D．Taking some medicine in space.
57．What is the main purpose of this passage
A．To explain why space travel is popular
B．To describe how zero gravity feels.
C．To give advice on preparing for space travel.
D．To introduce different space tourist flights
So far, China has successfully sent a large number of satellites and spaceships into space. Space scientists have been greatly inspired by the old stories and ancient famous people when giving them names.
For thousands of years, Chinese people have dreamed of going to the moon. Chang’e Flies to the Moon is one of the most popular stories. As you can see, China’s first man-made satellite to circle around the moon was named Chang’e I. More interestingly, the moon rover was named after the Jade Rabbit, who is the partner of Chang’e in the story. These old stories carry people’s best wishes and dreams. With the development of science and technology, our scientists have made them come true.
Kuafu Runs After the Sun is another story to show how much ancient Chinese people wanted to know about the unknown world. Now, Kuafu is going with the scientists to “visit” the sun, because we have a space project called Kuafu Mission.
Besides the ancient stories, space scientists also get ideas from ancient famous people. For example, Mozi, an ancient scientist, discovered that light travels in a straight line over 2,000 years ago. His discovery made space study take a big step at that time. So, China’s first quantum (量子) science satellite was named Mozi, making China the first country in the world to achieve quantum communication between satellites and the ground.
From such simple things as giving names to the satellites, we can see how great our traditional culture is and what influence it has on our modern science and technology.
58．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A．Space scientists. B．Satellites and spaceships.
C．Public wishes for space exploration. D．Old stories and ancient famous people.
59．What do we know about Chang’e I according to the passage
A．It is China’s first man-made satellite.
B．It carried the Jade Rabbit to the moon directly.
C．It is named after the story Chang'e Flies to the Moon.
D．It was the first satellite to communicate with the ground.
60．Why did the writer mention Mozi in the passage
A．To show Mozi was the greatest scientist in ancient China.
B．To explain how China developed quantum communication.
C．To prove ancient scientists knew more about space than modern ones.
D．To give an example of naming a satellite after an ancient famous person.
61．What is the best structure of the passage

Living and Working in Space
Have you ever dreamed of traveling to space Today, astronauts from China regularly live and work on the Tiangong space station, turning that dream into a long stay. But what is daily life really like up there
In space, there is no gravity, so everything—including the astronauts—floats. To move around, they push themselves gently off the walls. Eating is quite different, too. Food is packed and often dried, because liquid would float away. Astronauts eat from special bags and drink water from sealed pouches with straws.
Sleeping also takes a fresh habit. In a space station, there is no “up” or “down”, so astronauts sleep in sleeping bags fixed to the wall or ceiling. They usually get about eight hours of sleep, but without the feeling of a bed, some find it hard to fall asleep at first.
The most exciting part is doing science. Astronauts on Tiangong have carried out experiments on growing plants and studying how the human body changes in space. These experiments help scientists prepare for longer trips, such as future missions to the Moon and Mars. Every small step in the station today may lead to a giant leap for all of us tomorrow.

A．By pushing themselves off the walls.
B．By walking on special floors.
C．By using small fans in the room.
63．Why must astronauts eat from special bags in space

Gu Jinling, a 14-year-old girl from Beijing, has become a social media star with over 2.5 million fans because of her wonderful Chinese classical dance. Known as “Gagaling” on the Internet, she dressed up as a person like Dunhuang murals (壁画) or Tang Dynasty figurines (雕像) in her videos. Her excellent dance skills and the cultural charm (魅力) of her performances have attracted lots of viewers. Many people leave warm comments online, saying her dances let them feel the beauty of ancient Chinese culture.
Gu began learning dance at the age of 3 and has been practising it from then on. She first learned ballet but turned to Chinese classical dance at 6 because she was attracted by the beautiful costumes of Chinese classical dance. She also explored more kinds of dances, such as modern dance and ethnic folk (民族) dance. Different kinds of dances help her build a strong foundation and bring new ideas to her classical dance shows.
Chinese classical dance needs deep understanding of traditional culture. To perform better, Gu reads books about Chinese culture and visits many museums. Through Gu’s years of hard work, she can perform some special movements just like those in the Dunhuang murals. She tries her best to connect every gesture with the stories behind the old artworks.
As she grows older, Gu faces new challenges in dancing. She has to spend more time on basic skills and difficult training. However, she still manages to enjoy a common teenage life. While studying and training hard, she spares time to hang out with friends, go shopping and watch movies. “I chose dance. The better I dance, the happier I am,” she said. She believes love and persistence will light up her way ahead.

Music plays an important role in helping teenagers manage their emotions. Through lyrics or melodies (旋律), music connects with teenagers deeply, influencing their mental health.
One of the key ways music influences teenagers’ emotions is by serving as a mood regulator (调节者). When teenagers are sad, listening to sad music can make them feel better. When they’re stressed or worried, calm and gentle music can provide relaxation and a sense of peace. When they are faced with challenges, music can also be a source of comfort and understanding. It allows teenagers to connect with the stories expressed in songs and to realize that they are not alone in their struggles.
Moreover, music acts as a powerful tool for self-expression among teenagers. It allows them to express their emotions, thoughts, and experiences in a way that words alone cannot express. It provides them with a safe space to be themselves and explore their own voice.
Furthermore, music helps teenagers connect with others who share similar feelings and experiences. Whether it’s attending concerts or sharing their favourite songs, music provides common ground for teenagers to get closer to one another. Because they have similar emotions, it brings a sense of connection. This is particularly valuable during the teenage years, when they are dealing with emotions and need more understanding and support.
However, not all music has positive effects. Certain music can be harmful to teenagers’ emotions and behaviors, especially songs with violent or depressing lyrics. That’s why it’s important for teenagers to be mindful of the content they listen to and its potential influence on their mental health.
In conclusion, the influence of music on teenagers’ mental health is clear. By using this power positively, teenagers can improve their emotional health and better face the challenges of teenage years.

Recently, a short video of dance teacher Zhao Tiechun teaching Huagudeng, a kind of folk dance from Anhui, has become popular online. Its special moves, “Dodge Step” (闪身步) and “Bear Shaking” (狗熊哆嗦毛), quickly went popular because they look funny and lovely. Soon thousands of people began to copy them online. Some people made real-life videos, while others created new pictures with AI. Even kids and animal videos joined this dance trend. Most people felt happy and relaxed after watching these videos.
For a long time, people believed online trends were only for fun and quickly forgotten. However, Huagudeng is Anhui’s intangible cultural heritage. The online trend lets people learn about this ancient art easily.
At first, people only enjoyed the funny moves. Later, more visitors started to learn about its culture. They turned short funny moves into full, wonderful heritage. From short clips to full shows of the heritage, this online spread changed greatly. It helps people move from “just watching” to “copying” and finally “truly learning about” the heritage. In this way, the Internet shows its great value for culture.
Still, spreading traditional culture in fun ways has some risks. If we only care about fun, people may only see jokes and miss the true meaning behind Huagudeng. We must keep its true culture value and show enough respect. We can make it close to common people, but we cannot change or break its true cultural spirit. Only with respect can fun online sharing work well with culture inheritance.
Traditional culture should not stay closed to new things. In the Internet age, old culture does not need to stay away from online popular styles. Huagudeng’s online success is a good example. If we keep its true cultural heart, new light-hearted ways can bring traditional culture closer to young people. It breaks the old idea that heritage is boring or hard to understand. All in all, this popular dance trend tells us: we can use new online ways to give old traditional culture new life.

Spud Webb was born in Texas, the USA, in 1963. He was very small—much smaller than the other kids at school. However, he had a big dream — he wanted to play in the NBA．While attending junior high, Spud tried out for the school team, but he was refused at first because he was too small. He did not lose heart. When he finally got the chance, he scored 20 points in his first game. From then on, he was the star of the team.
In senior high, Spud often had to sit in the stands because of his height. He practised even harder and got the coach to change his mind. Spud went on to become leader of the team. In his last year of senior high, he was named Player of the Year in Texas.
However, no university would invite him to play basketball simply because he was only 170cm tall. He decided to play at a junior college. There he led his team to the national championship. This brought him to the attention of North Carolina State University. As a result, he succeeded in getting a scholarship.
Although he was a great player at university, the NBA was not interested in him because all its players were more than 20cm taller than he was. After he graduated, he was forced to play in another basketball league. He remained there for about a year before the NBA took notice of him.
In 1985, he joined the Atlanta Hawks and became the shortest player in the NBA at that time. He had many great achievements, but his proudest moment came in 1986—he won the Slam Dunk Contest.
Through hard work, Spud Webb proved that size and body type do not matter—you can do almost anything if you never give up.
79．Why was Spud refused by the school team at junior high at first
A．Because he had no dream. B．Because he was too small. C．Because he scored few points.
