26、 Slowly but surely, we’re moving closer and closer to 5G world. From smart-home security(安全) to self-driving cars, all the internet-connected devices in your life will be able to talk to each other at lightning-fast speeds. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G download speeds in the US top out at an average of 10.42 Mbps. But by comparison, 5G promises gigabit(千兆) speeds.
“5G is one of those signs, along with artificial intelligence(人工智能),of this coming data age,” said Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. The self-driving vehicle(车辆) is a great emblem of this data age, and that is to say, it is a sign of time, because with one single task, driving, you have a large number of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors(传感器) are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It’s pulling in data from other vehicles about road conditions down the lane(车道). It could be weather information, but also connected infrastructure (基础设施)construction. There is lots of data behind that task, which is why we need high speeds.
Augmented reality glasses and virtual headset haven’t yet broken the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully betting(打赌) that these devices will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable(显著的) because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to assist--or perhaps even replace--smartphones.
Ericsson stated at February' s Mobile World Congress how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components(部件), the glasses could rely on hardware for processing(处理)power.
But don't get too excited. There's still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including various trials to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction, so 5G isn’t concentrated(集中) only in big cities.
【1】What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 1?
A.The lightning- fast speeds of 5G. B.The expectation of 5G world.
C.The difference between 4G and 5G. D.The internet-connected devices in our life.
【2】What does the underlined word “emblem” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Exhibition. B.Success. C.Symbol. D.Explanation.
【3】What will the author probably tell us next?
A.How to fully expand 5G coverage(覆盖范围). B.Smart glasses will become faster and lighter.
C.Why 5G isn't concentrated in big cities. D.The importance of infrastructure construction.
【4】Where is this passage probably taken from?
A.A science fiction. B.A science magazine.
C.A business report. D.A film documentary.

Popular music in America is what every student likes.Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class,after class and at lunch.Students with cars buy large speakers(扬声器)and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.

28、 An Oregon witness at Hood River reported watching two cigar-shaped objects that stopped and hovered (盘旋). He was in a car driven by her mother at 2:06 p.m. on July 18, 2018.
The witness stated, “I was in the passenger seat. My mom then pointed to two white lines in the sky. They were far off and too big to be an airplane. The lines were surely not made by airplanes because there was no tail or wings. These were just straight white, cigar-shaped lines in the sky. They appeared to be headed eastward before they stopped and started hovering.”
“While I was thinking about what the cigar-like objects might be, I did forget to record. After a while, they moved northward, disappearing into a thundercloud (雷雨云), in which an airplane could not go. Also, I noticed the two objects were flying very close to each other, and I know commercial (商业的) airliners do not do that. The way that the objects were flying was as if they were formation flying.”
The witness did not feel like the objects were presenting a possible danger in any way.
“People in movies tend to make UFOs seem like dangerous things that come to the Earth to Kill humans. But these objects only appeared to be looking at the Earth below. I was not frightened by these objects, and I was left with many questions instead: What were they here for? Did anyone else see them? And why had they come to the earth?”
“When my mom and I came home we told my dad and brother about the strange event. They did not believe us though. And because we don’t have any pictures or videos, this event will be considered as another product of human imagination or a joke. Though I do accept that not everything on the Internet is real, I know what I saw. The UFOs that I saw were real,” said the witness.
【1】Which of the following correctly describes the two UFOs?
A.They kept their distance. B.They flew in a special way.
C.They made a noise like thunder. D.They were half the size of airplanes.
【2】What did the witness think of the UFOs?
A.They were carrying out a task. B.They provided ideas for movies.
C.They seemed harmless to the Earth. D.They seemed frightened of humans.
【3】How did the witness feel about the UFOs?
A.Afraid. B.Excited.
C.Confused. D.Uninterested.
【4】Why did the witness think people didn’t believe his story?
A.He couldn’t prove it.
B.He didn’t believe it himself
C.They had heard too many similar stories.
D.They might think he copied it from the Internet.
29、For centuries, people in the sunny Mediterranean (地中海) would get up after long, relaxing meals and take a walk, often to the town square to see neighbors and socialize. Walking is so much a part of the lifestyle that it is seen as the most important part of the super-healthy Mediterranean diet.
Studies have found why that it may be one of the reasons the Mediterranean diet can reduce the risk for some diseases like diabetes, high cholesterol, heart disease, stroke and some cancers — all the while strengthening bones, improving brain health, preventing dementia (痴呆) and helping with healthy weight loss.
Now you can add another reason to take a post-meal walk-it may lower your blood sugar. That trip doesn’t need to take up a huge amount of your time either: Walking as little as two to five minutes after a meal can do, according to a 2022 study in the journal Sports Medicine.
Standing after a meal can help, too, but not as much as putting one foot in front of the other, said study coauthor Aidan Buffey, a doctoral student in sport sciences department at the University of Limerick in Ireland.
“Standing on and off throughout the day and after meals reduced blood sugar on average by 9.51% compared to long hours of sitting. However, light-walking throughout the day saw a greater reduction of blood sugar by an average of 17.01% compared to long hours of sitting,” Buffey said.
“This suggests that breaking long hours of sitting with standing and light-walking throughout the day is good for blood sugar levels. Standing is good, but walking is better,” he added.
【1】What is the purpose of paragraph 1?
A.To introduce a lifestyle.
B.To warn the readers.
C.To lead in the topic.
D.To prove an opinion.
【2】What does “putting one foot in front of the other” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Standing.
B.Sitting.
C.Walking.
D.Lying.
【3】How did Aidan Buffey draw his conclusion?
A.By doing surveys.
B.By comparing the data.
C.By doing experiment.
D.By referring to other studies.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A.Walking can help lower blood sugar
B.There are reasons to stick to walking
C.Mediterranean diet is super healthy
D.Long hours of sitting after meal is a bad habit

31、根据课文内容,填入适当形式的单词。
At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people 【1】 ( speak) English. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world and because 【2】 that, English began to 【3】 (speak) in many other countries.

Native English speakers can understand each other even 【4】 they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example:
