She buys a fine steed at the east market; a saddle and blanket at the west market; a bridle at the south market; and a long whip at the north market.
- The Ballad of Mulan
The history of ji shi in our country can date back to the barter system of the late primitive society. Markets had already emerged during the time of Shennong. By the Shang and Zhou dynasties, “shell money” was being used in transactions, and markets began to take on more defined forms. During the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States periods, many renowned merchants emerged, such as Fan Li, honored as the “Merchant Saint", and Lü Buwei, known as the “Merchant Prime Minister". In the Qin Dynasty, the unification of wheel tracks, currency, and weights and measures stimulated the market trade. To enhance regulation, the Qin government established "fixed markets” - enclosed spaces with high walls where people could freely set up stalls. During the Han Dynasty, markets(referred to as “Hu markets") were established in border regions. Major cities such as Chang'an, Luoyang, and Chengdu emerged as prominent economic centers. In the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an and Luoyang thrived with the merchants, both local and foreign, fostering a booming trade network. Due to the Tang Dynasty's enforcement of a night curfew, markets were only active during the daytime. The Song Dynasty abolished the night curfew, ushering in an era of flourishing night markets. These markets became lively hubs not only in the capital, Dongjing, but also in other cities where night markets gained widespread popularity. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the market economy had reached unprecedented levels of prosperity, with the Four Great Towns achieving widespread acclaim.
On a designated day, people joyfully gather at the market.
Dizhou Tong is a well-familiar name in China, as there is a story about him in one of the elementary school textbooks. The story describes how he came from a poor family and could not go to high school until the age of 17, and how his resolution and diligence made him a successful biologist. But in the academic community, he is remembered and respected for another reason - the outstanding achievement of cross-species cloning in fish. 爭氣 童第周在中國可謂家喻戶 曉，因為其事跡在小學課本 中便有所記載。他出身貧 寒，17歲才踏入中學校門， 卻憑借其頑強毅力與不懈努 力，最終成為杰出生物學家。 在學術領域，人們銘記并敬 重他，還因他在魚類跨物種 克隆方面取得的卓越成就。
oldest pupil in the class and in 1922 he graduated with the highest grade among his class. In 1923 he entered Fudan University in Shanghai, China. Tong graduated with an undergraduate degree in psychology in 1927.
ong was born in a village in Yin County, Zhejiang Province, China, on May 28, 1902. His father was a teacher in the village and was responsible for Tong's early education. Tong's father died when Tong was fourteen years old, leaving his mother to care for Tong and his six siblings. In 1918, at
In 1930, Tong married Yufen Ye, a biologist who later specialized in embryology. With financial support from his brothers, Tong started doctoral study in the Université Libre de Bruxelles in Brussels, Belgium in 1930. Tong learned from famous European embryologists when studying in Belgium, and published several papers after careful observation and research, which exerted great effects on the biological field of Europe at that time.
這篇課文叫《一定要爭氣》，主要講述了童第周兩次“爭氣”的故事。第一次是在中學時，童第周因為文化基礎差，差點被退學或降級。他通過發奮努力，用半年時間將成績趕了上來。第二次是在比利時留學時，童第周面對外國學生的輕視，下定決心為中國人爭氣。后來，他完成了青蛙卵膜剝離手術，震驚了歐洲生物學界。
the age of 16, Tong enrolled in a school that trained primary school teachers. A year later Tong left to attend the Ningbo Xiaoshi High School. At the age of 17, Tong was the
At the end of 1934, Tong returned to China and became a professor of biology at Shandong University. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression,

張老師坐堂
本篇文章與高考閱讀理解B篇的選材有相似之處，文章選項設置可能也會讓同學們在作答時“傷腦筋”。這里，張老師想說點命題時的所感，希望能幫助到同學們。
是的，每個人都希望得高分，但沒人喜歡題海戰術。那么，如果提高刷題的性價比呢？俗話說，綱舉則目張。無論何種文章，如能根據文章類型迅速把握文章結構，則可根據題目對可能的答案出處快速定位，有的放矢。所以，首先應摸透文章類型及相應特點。
其次，我們究竟應該怎么學習和復習詞匯呢？死記硬背，低效費時；提煉詞匯核心意思才能觸類旁通并游刃有余地應對詞義猜測題。同義詞的積累與識別更是重中之重。無論是近義詞還是反義詞，無論是上下義詞還是歸納或演繹，都是同義替換可能的出題手段，而同義替換在出題中的占比極重。
再次，邏輯為王。文章千變萬化，題目五花八門，但對學生素養的考查始終不變。無論是句子內部，句子之間還是段落之間，都遵循著一定的行文邏輯。唯有逐句精讀，仔細推敲文章的內在邏輯，在解答閱讀理解題時才不會望文生義，在完成七選五時才不容易被選項套路，在完成完形填空時才能不遺漏線索，在寫作文時才能行云流水。
以上，都可以從研究真題中獲得。

日落遐想
我坐在湖之畔，看著太陽朝地平線緩緩落下。頭倚墻壁，我眼中滿是落日的余暉。冬日的空氣，透著一股凝重。
風從我身旁掠過，無聲地笑著，寒意直透骨髓;它在湖面翩翩起舞。留下一道道細微的漣漪。
我看著湖水悠悠流淌，宛如順滑的絲綢。粼粼波光，碎作萬千光斑。隨波逐流，時隱時現。
對日落來說，生命意味著什么？每次目睹日落，我都心生憐憫。它每天露面的時間極為短暫。從未完整領略過世間萬物。它日復一日地出現，有著永恒的規律。卻在宏大的時空里轉瞬即逝。我們的生命不也如此？與浩瀚宇宙相比，同樣短暫無常。或許，我們應讓生命富有意義，如日落般燦爛輝煌。
Sunset Reflections
文/海南省人大附中海口實驗學校宋沐晨指導老師/王彬
I sat beside the shallow lake, observing the sun descending towards the horizon. I rested my head against the wall, my eyes filled with the sunset glow. The wintry air imparted a thick and heavy feeling.
The wind swept past me with a silent laugh, its coldness seeping deep into my bones as it danced across the lake, leaving small ripples in its wake.
I watched the water flowing serenely like gliding silk. The light, reflecting off its surface, shattered into a thousand fragments, drifting with the current - vanishing and reappearing in a fluid dance.
What is the meaning of life to the sunset? Each time I behold it, I feel a sense of pity. It has only a brief moment of appearance each day, never fully experiencing the world in its entirety. It is permanent in its daily recurrence yet fleeting in the vastness of space and the immensity of time. Aren't our lives just like this? We, too, are short-lived when compared to the cosmos. Perhaps, then, we should strive to render our lives meaningful, briliant and glorious - much like the sunset.
