24、 We have recently heard some interesting ways that 5G technology might change our lives in the future. 5G promises internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than the present 4G systems. The technology is also built to deal with many more users without slowing services down. Such improvements are sure to be popular for 5G users worldwide.
While 5G is set to start in some limited areas of the United States this year, much of the rest of the world is not expected to receive such service widely until 2023.
One project called 5G Rural First in Britain, though, is already testing this superfast technology, but not on humans. Instead, the experiment involves an unlikely group of internet users-cows. The system connects the animals to 5G in an effort to automate(自动化)the milking process.
Testing areas are set up at farms in three countries of England. The cows are fitted with 5G devices(装置)that connect to a robotic milking system. The system uses sensors(传感器)and machine learning to fully automate the process. System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each cow. It then sets machine to the right height for milking. During the process, machines give food to the cow in return.
In one of the test areas, about 50 of the farm's 180 cows are fitted with 5G smart devices and health-watching sensors. Project officials say the devices do not harm the cows and the sensors allow farmers to immediately discover any problems such as health problems.
Other technology tools powering the 5G smart farms include automated brushes that turn on when the cow touches them. Sensors also control the supply of light in the cows' living areas depending on the weather. And an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough to eat.
Nick Chrissos works on the project. He said the system can connect every cow, and every other animal on the whole farm. “That's what 5G can do for farming—really free the power that we have within this farm, everywhere around the United Kingdom, and everywhere around the world.”
【1】What's Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.How the system automates the milking process.
B.How the technology knows when to milk cows.
C.How the designers connect 5G devices to cows.
D.How the testing areas were set up in the countries.
【2】According to the passage, 5G smart farms _________.
A.effect huge changes on the animals
B.improve the cow operations in many ways
C.make the internet speed slow down greatly
D.test the technology on both cows and people
【3】What's Nick Chrissos' attitude towards the 5G technology?
A.Worried. B.Hopeful. C.Surprised. D.Doubtful.
25、
Shakespeare is to literature in English, so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary tradition. Du Fu, known as the Sage of Poetry, lived and wrote in the eighth century, and his work is still available to modern Chinese readers. Du Fu, in fact, is still widely quoted (引用) in China today, and he has had a great influence on Chinese poetry in the past 1,200 years. However, the poet’s complete works weren’t unavailable in English translation in the past.
Conant University Professor Stephen Owen, who spent eight years on The Poetry of Du Fu, a 3,000-page translation published by De Gruyter, has completed the first English translation of the complete works of Du Fu.
Because Du Fu, like Shakespeare, is known for great width — in subject, in the way he uses language to pass on different registers (不同场合用的语言和文体) (see “Out with the Sake, In With the Wine”) and layered (多层次的) meanings — he is one of the most challenging poets to translate. Chinese poetry, a literary tradition in which tenses are absent, pronouns rare, and the use of the singular and plural forms are hard to understand, is well known for seeming ambiguous (模糊不清的) at times. Within that tradition, the interpretation of Du Fu’s work is especially contested. Owen’s critical edition, in which his translations face the original texts, brings a scholarly aid for the first time to English-speaking readers ready to engage with China’s literary lion.
【1】“Shakespeare is to literature in English, so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary
tradition.” means “ ”.
A. Du Fu has the same important literary status as Shakespeare in their own countries
B. Du Fu is not as well-known as Shakespeare in China
C. Du Fu is much more famous than Shakespeare in England
【2】The Poetry of Du Fu is translated into English by .
A. Shakespeare B. Du Fu C. Stephen Owen
【3】The underlined sentence is closer to the original Chinese version “ ”.
A. 零落栖迟一杯酒,主人奉觞客长寿
B. 莫思身外无穷事,且尽生前有限杯
C. 花间一壶酒,独酌无相亲
【4】Chinese poems are hard to translate because of the following factors EXCEPT .
A. the use of singular and plural forms
B. too many characters
C. tenses and pronouns
【5】According to the passage, the following statement “ ” is TRUE.
A. The Poetry of Du Fu is the first English translation of the complete works of Du Fu.
B. There was no English translation of Du’s works in the past.
C. Du’s works are out of style in China today.
26、 Grandpa moved in with us after Grandma passed away when I was 9. He came to Canada from China. I never spoke much Mandarin (普通话). Grandpa didn’t speak much English, but it didn’t matter.
One way we bonded was over a game of Monopoly (《大富翁》). He didn’t really understand the rules. But I don’t think it mattered. We always had a great time and a better relationship when we played the game.
I think of Grandpa when I play the trading card game Yu-Gi-Oh with my sons. I can’t keep track of all the spells and effects involved in this game. Truthfully, I don’t care if I win or lose these games. What matters is spending time with my children and making an effort to understand their interests.
I often think about my kids at how excitedly they explain rules and how they go easy on their old man. They’re growing up fast. I imagine it’s like how Grandpa felt when he played Monopoly with us.
Grandpa went for regular walks. He also spent his days sitting on the couch(长沙发)staring out the window and singing quietly. I often thought he was bored. But as I age, I find peace in taking moments to stare out a window. It is really great. Maybe I got that from him.
One of my biggest regrets is not spending more time with Grandpa. The night he passed away was the day before his 80th birthday. I felt very sad.
What I learned from my grandfather was to enjoy simple pleasures in life. Such as seeing the beauty in the colors of the rainbow, seeing a single leaf fall from a tree and playing Yu-Gi-Oh with my sons.
【1】What happened to the author and his grandfather during their game?
A.He grew impatient with his grandfather.
B.They enjoyed themselves at the game.
C.They learned to speak each other’s language.
D.His grandfather seldom had fun at the game.
【2】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “bonded” in Paragraph1?
A.保持联系 B.沟通交流 C.增进关系 D.加强理解
【3】What is the author thinking when he stares out a window?
A.How bored his father was at that time.
B.How much he misses his grandfather.
C.How difficult it is to be good parents.
D.How wonderful it is to feel peace at heart.
【4】According to the passage, which of the following statement is right?
A.The author can communicate well with his grandfather in English
B.The author can’t play Yu-Gi-Oh with his sons because he can’t keep track of all the spells and effects involved in this game
C.The author understand his grandfather better when he grows older.
D.The author spent a lot of time walking and sitting on the couch with his grandfather.
【5】What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this story?
A.To tell readers his grandfather’s life stories.
B.To show the influence that families have on kids.
C.To encourage readers to spend more time with families.
D.To share how his grandfather influenced him in some way.
27、 Heimaey, an island in Iceland, is home to just about 4,200 people. But each spring, more than1.5million puffins (海鹦) visit Heimaey and its neighboring islands. They go there to breed(繁殖). Around August, puffin chicks head for the ocean.That’s when the trouble begins.
Puffin chicks usually follow the light of the moon to the sea. But Heimaey’s bright lights make them unable to think and act right.Each year,a large number of them end up lost—-or worse. Often,some are hit by cars or eaten by cats.
Luckily, there is the Puffling Patrol.Each breeding season,the children of Heimaey work together to form search groups. At night they go to the streets carrying flashlights and cardboard boxes. “When you see a bird, you try to corner it and get it into the box,” Eldur Hansen said. The 14-year-old boy has caught several puffins this way. No one knows exactly when or how the Puffling Patrol got its start.But each year, it saves thousands of puffin chicks.
Puffins are now listed as a vulnerable species(易危物种).The main reason is that the number of small fish in the ocean is dropping. This is because of overfishing, pollution and rising ocean temperatures. Puffins need the fish for food.
Scientists worry puffins will die out if ocean temperatures continue to rise.But the Puffling Patrol inspires them a lot. “The message is that people can make a difference,” says Dr. Stephen W.Kress,an expert in seabird protection.
【1】The puffin chicks’ trouble begin________ .
A.in spring B.around August
C.when they are born D.when they arrive at the ocean
【2】What does the underlined word“them”in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Cars. B.Cats. C.Puffin chicks. D.Bright lights.
【3】What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.What puffins feed on. B.How puffins catch fish.
C.Why puffins are a vulnerable species. D.Why puffins are important to the ocean.
【4】What does Dr.Stephen W.Kress probably agree with?
A.The Puffling Patrol does a good job. B.Puffins will die out in the near future.
C.Haimaey has less pollution than before. D.Ocean temperatures will continue to rise.
