1.1.Zhang Xue __________ motorcycles when he was young.

A

B

C

D

解析：选loved。loved 细节理解题。短文第二句明确写道“He loved motorcycles when he was young.”，说明张雪小时候就喜爱摩托车。题干中“when he was young”与原文完全一致，只需将原文中的动词“loved”直接填入即可。注意使用过去式，因为事情发生在过去。故填loved。

2.2.Zhang Xue __________ 8,000 yuan on an old motorcycle.

A

B

C

D

解析：选spent。spent 推理判断题。短文提到“He saved 8,000 yuan to buy an old motorcycle.”（他攒了8000元买一辆旧摩托车），而后文又说“Later, from 2004, he practiced riding every day.”（后来从2004年起他每天练习骑行），由此可以推断，他用积蓄买下了这辆旧摩托车，即“花了8000元在某物上”应使用“spend ... on ...”结构，且为过去发生的事，故填“spent”。原文虽然没有直接出现“spent”一词，但根据上下文逻辑可得出这一结论。故填spent。

3.3.Zhang Xue wanted to be a motorcycle __________.

A

B

C

D

解析：选rider。rider 细节理解题。短文中有“He wanted to be the best rider.”一句，表明他的梦想是成为最优秀的摩托车手。题干“wanted to be a motorcycle __________”需要填入表示职业或身份的单词，原文中“rider”恰好符合，意为“骑手”，故直接提取即可。故填rider。

4.4.Zhang Xue __________ his riding talent to TV reporters in 2006.

A

B

C

D

解析：选showed。showed 细节理解题。短文明确写到“In 2006, Zhang Xue showed his riding talent to TV reporters.”，题干将时间状语“in 2006”后置，但动作及对象完全对应。因此，将“showed”填入空白处，保持句子完整，表示他向电视台记者展示了自己的骑行天赋。故填showed。

5.5.Zhang Xue __________ ZXMOTO in 2024.

A

B

C

D

解析：选started。started 细节理解题。短文结尾提到“In 2024, he started his own company ZXMOTO.”，题干虽然重复了“in 2024”，但核心意思不变，即张雪在2024年创办了公司ZXMOTO。空白处需填入谓语动词，与“ZXMOTO”构成动宾关系，故用“started”，表示“创立、开办”。原文直接给出了该信息，学生只需准确定位并提取。故填started。
