24、   Do you know 5G? It is the fifth generation(代）of mobile network technology. These new networks are coming.

China just issued commercial licenses(发放商用牌照）for 5G on June 6. This means that China’s telecom companies were soon able to offer 5G networks for mobile phone users.

Each mobile network generation is faster and more powerful than the one before it. 1G let us talk to each other. 2G let us send messages. 3G gave us data and the Internet. And 4G made all of these things faster. What’s special about 5G?

5G has a very short delay between sending and receiving information. Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds(毫秒）to send and receive data. But 5G will get it down to 1 millisecond or less—this is almost real-time.

This big change will not only make our mobile Internet faster, but also deeply change our lives. Read on to find out how.

5G+entertainment(娱乐）

5G networks are about 100 times faster than 4G. This means you can dowload a movie in seconds using 5G.

Also, virtual reality (VR) games will become more popular with 5G. The short delay of 5G will make the games feel even more real.

5G+transportation

5G will also bring us safer self-driving cars. These cars can send signals(信号）to each other. They also talk to traffic lights and road sensors(传感器). 5G will allow cars to react even faster than human drivers.

5G+smart homes

5G also makes the Internet of things possible. Internet of things is a large network that connects everything to the Internet. Smart homes are part of it.

For example, your toaster can automatically(自动地）start making breakfast after your alarm rings. And if its sensor feels the air becoming dry, a smart sprinkler could water your plants by itself.

【1】What does the underlined word “delay” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?.

A.延时 B.暂停 C.断开 D.卡顿

【2】5G will change people’s lives in many ways EXCEPT _________.

A.entertainment B.transportation C.smart homes D.health

【3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.We can download a movie faster with 5G.

B.Human drivers can send signals at traffic lights.

C.The plants can water themselves by a smart sprinkler with 5G.

D.5G is faster and more powerful than 4G.

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A.Mobile phone users can use 5G networks.

B.Each mobile network generation has their own advantages.

C.5G will change our lives in many ways.

D.5G will bring us safer self-driving cars.

25、Have you heard of “Buy Nothing Day”? Do you think you can’t spend a coin on that day?

This holiday encourages people to stop buying thing. It began in the l990s in Vancouver, Canada．It was the idea of a man named Kalle Lasn．After working for many years in advertising(广告业)，Lasn began to question the ways advertisers influenced people to buy things．

Lasn knows that people need to buy things. They have to buy things to eat，live and even enjoy life．But Lasn believes that many companies encourage people to buy far more than is necessary．He thinks  it  hurts people and culture．

Lasn tries to help people understand some of the false values and ideas behind advertising．The main value he fights is the idea．“You must buy more to be happy．”Encouraging people to celebrate“Buy Nothing Day”is one idea he came up with.

The first “Buy Nothing Day” was celebrated in Canada in 1992．Many other countries also have growing problems with too much consumption (消费)． Now, over sixty different countries，including the USA，the UK，Germany, France，Japan，are celebrating“Buy Nothing Day”．

Some people doubt if “Buy Nothing Day” can really change culture．It is only one day, they say．Other people say that consumers should not just buy less，but they should buy better．These people encourage consumers to buy things made in environment—friendly ways．

But “Buy Nothing Day” does get people thinking about the negative(负面的)influences of buying too much．

27、

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are busy trying to make money in order to pay for my brother' s education and mine. They don't act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. For them, "I love you" is too difficult to say. Even sending flowers to each other on some special days is hardly ever seen.

One day, my mother was repairing a quilt(被子). I silently sat beside her and looked at her. "Mum, may I ask you a question?" I said.

"What?" she replied, still doing her work. "Is there love between you and Dads" I asked her in a very low voice. My mother stopped her work and looked at me in surprise. She didn't answer my question at once. Then, she bowed her head and continued to do her work.

I was afraid that I had hurt her feelings. I felt so embarrassed that I didn't know what to do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words:

"Look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of the time, it hides in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it's really there."

I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my  father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn't walk by himself. All of us were worried about him. "Dad, how are you feeling now" I asked him one day. "Susan, don't worry about me." he said gently. "To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life. Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

【1】Why does the writer sometimes doubt whether there is real love between her parents?

A.Because they are very busy earning money.

B.Because her father gets angry with her mother easily.

C.Because they often fight with each other.

D.Because they hardly express Their love to each other.

【2】What does the underlined word "durable " mean in Chinese?

A.好看的 B.廉价的 C.耐用的 D.朴素的

【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.The writer understood her mum's words at once.

B.People should often say "I love you".

C.The writer's parents didn't love each other.

D.Love is there, no matter whether you say it or not.

【4】What's the main idea of the passage`s

A.We should understand our parents.

B.Love is inside，making life strong and warm.

C.Love is really very important to anyone.

D.Lave should be outside, and can be seen everywhere.

28、   I was fourteen, a thin, red-headed, unimaginative little tomboy(假小子）, fond of baseball. My parents were dead, k【1】 in an accident a year before, and I lived with an aunt and uncle in Braeburn Heights, a suburb( 郊 区 ） of a small city in Kansas. Rudely transplanted from the life I had known-- a happy-go-lucky life in the brown hills of California-- I was l【2】  beyond words. The house was strange, the neighboring children were strange. I felt dry and hard and empty inside m【3】  day after day. I used to take my bicycle and r【4】 out into the  country, but the country was strange, too, and ugly , all flat and dull.

And then, o【5】 day I found White Creek Row. It was the town’s Hooverville( 贫 民 窟 ）, a row of shanties（棚屋）between the creek(小溪） and the railroad, little huts(简陋的小房子）l 【6】the playhouse that I had built back in the hills with the children of our Mexican gardener. But to my e【7】,  it was  romantic and  delightful as my aunt’s house in Braeburn Heights was not.

It was in White Creek Row that I made my first real f【8】  in Kansas. The people l【9】 in the row were  shy of me at first, as I was shy of the people in Braeburn Weights. My smart clothes, my bicycle, made me alien. And still, somehow or other, I m【10】 to develop a friendship with Posy Moreno
