The penguin character in these memes is called “Classy Penguin”, Many people think it looks a lot like the penguins from the 2009 movie The Penguins of Madagascar. However, China Science Communication said the penguins in the movie are not real, but are created by mixing ideas from several different penguins.
The “Classy Penguin” actually started as a little-known set of 3D pictures on a photo website, Shutterstock, in 2014. The artist, 3Dalia, made it with a round belly (腹部), sunglasses and a bow tie. In late 2024, it was rediscovered on a picture-sharing website and turned into memes.
During last year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, an online influencer used AI to make the penguin dance to a classic Chinese song. Its special moves quickly connected with young people, showing the feeling of “trying to stay cool while a bit losing it”.
Some experts believe that the meme’s popularity also has something to do with beauty fatigue on social media, where perfect pictures and lifestyles are widespread.

One day, she asked if I liked writing, and I said yes. Then she began giving me nice notebooks, saying the library was giving away old ones. Years later, I learned that she had bought them herself. Mrs. Chen offered me warmth and safety when I had nowhere else to go. She helped me quietly, without making me feel embarrassed.
Now I am in college, planning to become a teacher. I often think of her kindness and the difference she made to my life. Last year, I wrote to tell her how important she was to me. She replied that she always believed I would succeed.

（2026·安徽池州·一模）Scientists have known for a long time that some dogs can learn the names of many toys. Now, a new study shows that these dogs can also learn the names of new toys just by listening to people talk about them. This is a skill that young children have, but most dogs do not.
Most dogs can learn simple instructions like “sit” or “come”. However, learning the names of things, called “label learning”, is much harder for them. Over the last 20 years, scientists have found a few dogs that are very good at this. They call them “gifted word learners”. These dogs can remember the names of many toys, sometimes even hundreds. They usually learn the names while playing or during training with their owners.
But some owners noticed that their dogs react when they hear toy names in conversations. For example, a dog named Basket is a 7-year-old Border Collie (边境科利狗). She knows over 200 toy names. When her owners talk about avocados (牛油果), she brings her toy avocado.
One scientist, Shany Dror, wanted to know if these dogs could learn new words from conversations they hear. She and her team tested 10 dogs that are good at learning toy names. Seven of them were Border Collies. The study looked at whether the dogs could learn new toy names just by listening when people talked about the toys.
This research helps us understand how some dogs learn words. It shows that these special dogs have an ability similar to young children.
1．How do most gifted dogs learn toy names
A．Through play or daily training. B．By watching other dogs play.
C．By listening to TV programs. D．Through smelling each object.
2．What is special about the dog named Basket
A．She can understand human feelings. B．She is a two-year-old Border Collie.
C．She knows more than 200 toy names. D．She loves avocados best among all fruits.
3．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．A conversation talking about toys. B．A scientist interested in word learning.
C．A dog good at learning toy names. D．A study testing dogs’ word learning.
4．What does the research suggest according to the last paragraph
A．Gifted word learners may share some learning abilities with children.

（2026·安徽芜湖·一模）For over 70 years, scientists have been working to develop artificial intelligence (AI)—computers close to human intelligence. Their final goal is to create computers that can think like humans.
AI comes from sets of instructions that people write. These instructions are called puters use programs to analyze (分析) information quickly and make choices. However, analyzing information is not the same as understanding it as humans puters depend only on logic (逻辑), while humans use both logic and feelings to make decisions. It is still unknown whether feelings can be programmed into computers.
The idea of AI started in 1950 with British scientist Alan Turing. He created the Turing Test to check if a computer is truly smart. In the test, a judge asks questions to both a person and a computer, and then compares their answers. If the judge cannot tell them apart, the computer is considered smart. So far, no computer has passed this test.
However, as AI develops quickly, more problems have also appeared.

We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed hundreds of times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed hundreds of times but had learned hundreds of things which didn’t work.
We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful in the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win.

Modesty is considered as a valuable quality all over the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase maosuizijian seems to disagree with this.
During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched on (进军) Handan, the capital of Zhao. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan wanted to talk to the state of Chu and get help from it. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were talented enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.
Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt. “How long have you been here with me ” “For three years,” Mao Sui answered. “I hear that a person with talent is like an awl in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce through (刺穿) the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but I haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent,” said Prince Pingyuan.
“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it,” Mao Sui said confidently.
Impressed by his words, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team. And at last Prince Pingyuan thought Mao was really helpful. Now the phrase maosuizijian is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.
However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance (傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego (自我) can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.
1．How many people did Prince Pingyuan want to pick
A．15. B．17. C．19. D．20.
2．How long had Mao Sui been with Prince Pingyuan
A．For one year. B．For two years. C．For three years. D．For four years.
3．What did Prince Pingyuan think of Mao Sui at first
A．He was lazy. B．He was confident.
C．He was helpful. D．He was talentless.
4．What can we learn from the story
A．We should always be confident. B．We should not be too outgoing.
C．We should let our work speak for itself. D．We should never volunteer for a task.

（2026·安徽马鞍山·一模）We have been interested in the moon for 2,000 years. People already knew it moves around the Earth and where it would be in the sky at different times of the year. At that time, everything about the moon was learned by watching it carefully in the sky.
When scientists could use telescopes (望远镜) to study the moon more closely, their ideas began to change. They could see the moon was made of rocks. Most scientists thought moon rocks would be different from those on the Earth. This was because they believed the moon had once been a planet that had been caught in the Earth’s gravity (重力) millions of years ago.
In 1969, moon rocks were finally brought to the Earth and studied. Much to their surprise, scientists found that, except for water, the moon and the Earth were made of the same things. Once again, new ideas were needed for this new information. After years of study, most scientists now think that the moon was once part of the Earth. They believe very early in its history, maybe 4 billion years ago, something about the size of Mars (火星) hit the Earth. This sent billions of rocks into space around our planet. These rocks slowly joined together and after many years, became the moon.
In the future, though our ideas about the moon may change again, we will still be interested in it.
1．What did most scientists think the moon was before 1969
A．It was part of the Earth billions of years ago. B．It was older than the Earth.

2．What do most scientists think now about the moon and the Earth
A．The Earth was once part of the moon. B．The moon used to be part of the Earth.
C．Mars will hit the Earth in the near future. D．Rocks will join together to become another moon.
3．What can we learn from this passage
A．New information brings new ideas. B．Scientists in the past were not clever.
C．We now know everything about the moon. D．Scientists are so clever that they know everything.

（2026·安徽马鞍山·一模）I used to have a motorcycle (摩托车). One Sunday in summer, my 10-year-old daughter and I went for a ride in the countryside. We took the back roads to a park where the view was fantastic!
Halfway through the park, the motorcycle was out of gas and stopped working, leaving a woman and her daughter. 20 miles from home, helpless.
Along came a motorcyclist (摩托车手). He slowed, got off his motorcycle and asked what the problem was. He had long hair and didn’t look kind. Some people would have looked at him and said, “Oh, one unfriendly person.” But I’ve known many people like him, both good and bad, so I hoped that he was among the good ones.
When I told him about our trouble, he offered to help. I rode his motorcycle with my daughter and he pushed my motorcycle. Through hard work, we finally reached a small town next to the park.
However, the gas stations were closed in the town. My new friend jumped on his motorcycle to search for an open gas station. After a while, he was back with some gas for my motorcycle, and we were on our way again! Without accepting my payment for the gas he’d bought for us, he just rode away.

1．第三段作者描述：“I’ve known many people like him, both good and bad, so I hoped that he was among the good ones.”，说明她不确定这位摩托车手是好人还是坏人。
2．第一段“We took the back roads to a park where the view was fantastic!”可知，故事开始时作者和女儿出游，心情“pleased”；第二段“20 miles from home, helpless.”可知，半路摩托车没油被困，心情变得“helpless”；最后一段“we were on our way again!”得到帮助解决问题后，重新上路，心情变得“happy”。
3．全文围绕一位摩托车手主动帮助作者脱困的故事展开，因此“一位善良的摩托车手”最能概括全文主旨。

The penguin character in these memes is called “Classy Penguin”, Many people think it looks a lot like the penguins from the 2009 movie The Penguins of Madagascar. However, China Science Communication said the penguins in the movie are not real, but are created by mixing ideas from several different penguins.
The “Classy Penguin” actually started as a little-known set of 3D pictures on a photo website, Shutterstock, in 2014. The artist, 3Dalia, made it with a round belly (腹部), sunglasses and a bow tie. In late 2024, it was rediscovered on a picture-sharing website and turned into memes.
During last year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, an online influencer used AI to make the penguin dance to a classic Chinese song. Its special moves quickly connected with young people, showing the feeling of “trying to stay cool while a bit losing it”.
Some experts believe that the meme’s popularity also has something to do with beauty fatigue on social media, where perfect pictures and lifestyles are widespread.

Most dogs can learn simple instructions like “sit” or “come”. However, learning the names of things, called “label learning”, is much harder for them. Over the last 20 years, scientists have found a few dogs that are very good at this. They call them “gifted word learners”. These dogs can remember the names of many toys, sometimes even hundreds. They usually learn the names while playing or during training with their owners.
But some owners noticed that their dogs react when they hear toy names in conversations. For example, a dog named Basket is a 7-year-old Border Collie (边境科利狗). She knows over 200 toy names. When her owners talk about avocados (牛油果), she brings her toy avocado.
One scientist, Shany Dror, wanted to know if these dogs could learn new words from conversations they hear. She and her team tested 10 dogs that are good at learning toy names. Seven of them were Border Collies. The study looked at whether the dogs could learn new toy names just by listening when people talked about the toys.
This research helps us understand how some dogs learn words. It shows that these special dogs have an ability similar to young children.
1．How do most gifted dogs learn toy names
A．Through play or daily training. B．By watching other dogs play.

A．Gifted word learners may share some learning abilities with children.
B．Most dogs are able to learn many object names through daily practice.
C．Dogs can learn words better if they receive more attention from owners.
D．Border Collies are better at learning toy names than following instructions.
（2026·安徽芜湖·一模）For over 70 years, scientists have been working to develop artificial intelligence (AI)—computers close to human intelligence. Their final goal is to create computers that can think like humans.
AI comes from sets of instructions that people write. These instructions are called puters use programs to analyze (分析) information quickly and make choices. However, analyzing information is not the same as understanding it as humans puters depend only on logic (逻辑), while humans use both logic and feelings to make decisions. It is still unknown whether feelings can be programmed into computers.
The idea of AI started in 1950 with British scientist Alan Turing. He created the Turing Test to check if a computer is truly smart. In the test, a judge asks questions to both a person and a computer, and then compares their answers. If the judge cannot tell them apart, the computer is considered smart. So far, no computer has passed this test.

Children learn best when they take an active part in what they are doing. Hands-on activities let them explore and express themselves in ways traditional learning cannot. They help develop problem-solving skills and creativity. When children work with adults, they also build confidence and a strong sense of achievement. Research shows that learning by doing helps children understand and remember better. They are more likely to keep the knowledge and skills when they experience them by themselves.
Take cooking as an example. When children take part in meal preparation, it will encourage them to try new foods, teach them about math and give them a sense of responsibility. It can also teach children about proper food safety. Understanding food safety from a young age helps children develop habits that will protect them and others from illnesses.

The project started in 1978 and took about forty years to finish. It was a national-level tree planting project led by the government. The project has achieved a gradual increase in reforestation. It has formed a 2,761-kilometer sand-blocking (阻沙的) belt around the desert by 2023. However, the most difficult part was the final 285-kilometer gap. To complete the final part, experts used three main ways. In areas with enough water and good soil, they planted plants to form a wall. In dry areas, they used solar panels (太阳能电池板) to produce electricity and slow down the wind. They also planted plants under the solar panels, which helped fix sand in place. In areas without water, they used engineering methods to control sand.

We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed hundreds of times before he invented the light bulb. When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed hundreds of times but had learned hundreds of things which didn’t work.
We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life. It might be painful in the beginning, but there are many advantages. Good losers set examples to us, and most importantly, they finally win.

Modesty is considered as a valuable quality all over the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase maosuizijian seems to disagree with this.
During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched on (进军) Handan, the capital of Zhao. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan wanted to talk to the state of Chu and get help from it. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were talented enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.
Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt. “How long have you been here with me ” “For three years,” Mao Sui answered. “I hear that a person with talent is like an awl in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce through (刺穿) the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but I haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent,” said Prince Pingyuan.
“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it,” Mao Sui said confidently.
Impressed by his words, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team. And at last Prince Pingyuan thought Mao was really helpful. Now the phrase maosuizijian is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.
However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance (傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego (自我) can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.

When scientists could use telescopes (望远镜) to study the moon more closely, their ideas began to change. They could see the moon was made of rocks. Most scientists thought moon rocks would be different from those on the Earth. This was because they believed the moon had once been a planet that had been caught in the Earth’s gravity (重力) millions of years ago.
In 1969, moon rocks were finally brought to the Earth and studied. Much to their surprise, scientists found that, except for water, the moon and the Earth were made of the same things. Once again, new ideas were needed for this new information. After years of study, most scientists now think that the moon was once part of the Earth. They believe very early in its history, maybe 4 billion years ago, something about the size of Mars (火星) hit the Earth. This sent billions of rocks into space around our planet. These rocks slowly joined together and after many years, became the moon.
In the future, though our ideas about the moon may change again, we will still be interested in it.

A．It was part of the Earth billions of years ago. B．It was older than the Earth.

Over the past five years, grassroots football in Hunan has seen exciting competitions. The Hunan Provincial Football Super League, commonly known as “Xiangchao”, has become the heartbeat of local football culture, attracting thousands of fans and players alike.
Founded in 2016, the Xiangchao League’s core mission is to promote grassroots football development across Hunan. Recently, the league features 14 teams from different cities competing in local stadiums every weekend. The league serves not only as a competitive platform but also as a talent training ground—several young players have successfully advanced to professional clubs through this system.
This year’s championship race was particularly exciting. After defeating the strong Changsha team in a key semi-final (半决赛) match, Yongzhou showed excellent performance in the finals. Depending on their unique teamwork and smart playing plans, the team finally won the Xiangchao championship prize for the first time. The moment they won, Yongzhou’s home stadium went wild—fans waved flags, sang team chants, and the whole city was full of the joy of victory.

These special identities strengthen fans’ sense of belonging, making football matches important community-building events.
The league’s success has also helped the local economy. On match days, shops and restaurants around the stadiums do very well, creating a unique “matchday economy”. Following Yongzhou’s championship victory, local businesses even started “champion discount” sales, celebrating this historic achievement together with local people.
