Ⅱ. Read and complete the tasks.
①Huang Xuhua, an outstanding Chinese scientist, left us on 6th February, 2025. But his great deeds and strong spirit will always be in our hearts and light up China’s way forward.
②Born in Guangdong Province in 1926, Huang saw the suffering of his homeland caused by foreign armies during his childhood. So he made up his mind to use his knowledge to make the country stronger.
③In the 1950s, China started to develop nuclear submarines(核潜艇). It
was a very difficult job. At that time, there was not much technology or enough resources. However, Huang Xuhua and his team took on this challenge bravely. To keep the project secret, they didn’t communicate with the outside world, not even their families.
④During the design of the nuclear submarine, they met many difficulties. For example, designing a nuclear reactor(核反应堆) was really hard. They couldn’t get help from foreign experts, so they had to do research by themselves. They used simple tools like counting boards and rulers to do counting and experiments carefully. Another important problem was to make sure the submarine could stay steady(稳固) underwater. Through countless tests, they finally overcame these problems.
⑤In the 1970s, China’s first nuclear submarine was built and tested successfully, making China the fifth country to own nuclear submarines. In 2019, Huang Xuhua got the Medal of the Republic.
