3 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Jim stared at the ground and sighed in disappointment. Players from the opposing team raced past Jim, celebrating their shocking victory. They’d scored the game-winning goal just seconds before the end of the game.

“Just one word to describe a loss like that,” Jim mumbled to his teammate Devin.

“Terrible!” Devin sighed. “It was a tough one.” He trotted (小步快跑) toward the middle of the field to shake hands with the winning team. Jim walked slowly behind Devin. He unhappily slapped hands with the winners, then stopped to shut his eyes as the autumn air cooled his sweaty face.

“Terrible,” he repeated to himself as he sat on the bench and pulled his jacket on. “Let’s get some hot chocolate and watch the next game,” Devin said. There were eight teams in the YMCA league, so games would go on all morning. “Sorry. I’m heading home,” Jim said, “I’ve had enough soccer for today.”

As he reached the gate, Jim glanced back to see the next two teams take the field. They were jumping and shouting, excited to play. “That was us a little while ago, before we were discouraged.” Jim thought.

So why we lost the game at last? Jim asked himself. How did such a well-played game end up with such a terrible result? It was still clear in his head: Jim had the ball deep on the Jets’ side of the field, looking for Devin or another teammate to pass to. His team had outplayed the Jets for most of the game, but failed within the last seconds.

Jim let out a deep breath. The morning was growing warmer. Perfect for soccer. Jim looked back toward the field. He couldn’t see it, but he could hear the excited voices as the game continued.

6 . Yang Ruichen, a 17-year-old high school student from Beijing No 101 Middle School, secured the championship in the FSR-E Junior Final event. The 15-minute event took place on an M-shaped route, with the competitors’ self-designed models navigating along it. The goal was to complete as many laps as possible within the specified time frame. Yang ranked at the top with 66 laps.

“Designing a carbon fiber ship, installing the motor and helm (船舵), and conducting water tests -these steps are relatively straightforward. It’s the continuous adjusting that requires significant effort, “Yang recalled. He ended up discovering that placing a small piece of wood or applying some mud to the stern (船尾) could help to steady the ship.” Balance makes turning easier, which allows the ship to go faster,” he said.

During the competition, handling turns on a remote control is also important as this will help to deal with any sudden challenges that might come up. On the day of the event, there were some ripples on the lake’s surface. Yang had to perform more acceleration to guarantee the navigation. Also, during the match, one opponent’s boat lost control and suddenly stopped. “Any contact with it would have resulted in immediate disqualification, so I needed to maintain high concentration,” Yang said.

Yang’s passion for model ships started in primary school when he attended a special lecture on model ships. During his middle school years, his boats made ripples across countless lakes in Beijing, and he practiced racing for two hours every morning, consuming more than 20batteries each time.

As for his next step, Yang hopes to bring out his best at China’s 15th National Games in2025. “Model ship racing is a combination of being fast and intense. When pouring all my focus into racing my ship along the route, I couldn’t feel more delighted.” Yang said.

1. What are the competitors required to do?

A．Following the time limit.	B．Navigating on a straight track.
C．Controlling a given model ship.	D．Completing the same number of laps.

2. How did Yang improve the performance of his ship?

A．By installing a large motor.	B．By making the hull smaller.
C．By applying mud to the helm.	D．By putting a wood block at the stern.

3. Which words best describe Yang?

A．Optimistic and modest.	B．Mature and considerate.
C．Devoted and hardworking.	D．Humorous and enthusiastic.

4. Which might be a suitable title for the text?

A．Making waves with model ships.	B．Preparing for a professional racer.
C．Challenging yourself in ship racing.	D．Designing ships for a high school student.
