21、 Facebook says it is working on technology to allow us to control computers directly with our brains. It is developing "silent speech "software to allow people to type at a rate of 100 words per minute, it says. The project, in its early stages, will require new technology to detect brainwaves without needing invasive operation. "We are not talking about monitoring your random thoughts," assured Facebook's Regina Dugan. "You have many thoughts, and you choose to share some of them. We're talking about monitoring those words. A silent speech interface（界面）-one with all the speed and flexibility（灵活）of voice. ”
Ms Dugan is the company's head of Building 8，the firm's hardware research lab. The company said it intends to build both the hardware and software to achieve its goal，and has employed a team of more than 60 scientists and academics to work on the project.
On his Facebook page，Mark Zuckerberg added，“Our brains produce enough data to stream four HD（高清）movies every second. The problem is that the best way we have to get information out into the world-speech-can only send about the same amount of data as a 1980s modem. We're working on a system that will let you type straight from your brain about five times faster than you can type on your phone today. Finally，we want to turn it into a wearable technology that can be produced in quantity. ”
Technology is going to have to get a lot more advanced before we can share a pure thought or feeling. but this is a first step. Other ideas detailed at the company's developers conference in San Jose included work to allow people to “hear" through skin. The system，comparable to Braille，uses pressure points on the skin to pass information. "One day，not so far away，it may be possible for me to think in Chinese, and you to feel it instantly in Spanish,"Ms Dugan said.
【1】What can we know about the "silent speech"?

【2】What Zuckerberg said shows that __________
A. this wearable technology has already been put into use
B. typing directly from brains might become a reality some day
C. the best way to send information out is to use a 1980s modem
D. speaking speed is slower than that of our brains producing data
【3】What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A. Chinese will become a language of computer.
B. Facebook has a long way to go to achieve its goal.
C. It is impossible to control computers with brains.
D. Computers can be monitored by people's skin now.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the passage?

22、Four years ago my sweet mom went to be with her Lord(God). She did it her way.
I got the call at work, and I headed home quickly. Mom and Dad lived on a small farm that they had owned since I was seven. I hated going there every weekend. There was nothing for a young girl to do but watch the one station on the old TV set, if the weather allowed reception.
My mom, on the other hand, loved the peace and quiet of the land and loved to work in the garden among her flowers and vegetables. The place was simple, with no indoor heat. We had a big wood stove in the kitchen that did its best to heat the little farmhouse, but it always seemed cold and too quiet to me.
In the evenings, my mom and I would sit for hours singing in the little kitchen. I sang the melody and Mom harmonized(用和声唱). Her favorite song was “Moon River” and we sang it over and over. Mom told me stories next to the radio and there was one song I particularly loved called “Ivory Tower”.
As time passed, I had my own children and went to visit the farm every week or two. The kids loved the farm and the tractor rides with my dad. Me, well, I still hated the silence of the farm. While my mom loved to sit at her kitchen table and look out at her garden and flowers and retell all the old stories, I missed the hustle and bustle (喧闹) of my life at home. But I sat there listening quietly as she reminisced.
Now, I sat back in the silence and the silence was deafening so I finally leaned over to turn on an old radio. Music always comforted me.
My heart skipped a beat. “Moon River” was playing on the radio. I sat there with a tear running down my cheek, as I listened to every familiar note.

23、According to the UN report, nearly 54 million tons of e-waste was generated around the world in 2019. It includes everything from phones and computer monitors to larger items like refrigerators and old fax machine.
Rwanda is one of only 13 countries in Africa that have passed a national law regarding e-waste rule. It has led to the first official recycling and reusing facility in the country. Operational since early last year, this public-private partnership between the government and Enviroserve became a source of pride for Rwanda. The plant can process up to 10,000 tons of e-waste per year. According to managing director Olivier Mbera, Enviroserve has already repaired and reused more than 5,000 computers, which were sold to public schools. To date, it has processed more than 4,000 tons of e-waste and created more than 600 jobs.
Conveyor belts（传送带）sort plastics from metals, while particular space collects phosphor（磷）from old tube TVs. Circuit boards（电路板）pile up in bags and batteries are constantly being tested. Every piece of e-waste is thoroughly collected or pressed. The dangerous materials which can poison the environment are separated from the valuable ones.
"Globally, waste is not only increasing in quantity, but also in its complexity and composition," says Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya, country representative for Rwanda at the Global Green Growth Institute, an intergovernmental organization for sustainable（可持续的）economic growth. "Within an electronic device, there's gold, silver and so on and these sorts of elements could be taken out, providing new business opportunities for small businesses and even for big cities to generate income. Rwanda is one of our earliest pioneer members and they've done really well when it comes to its shift to a green growth pathway," he adds.
Mbera points to Enviroserve's success in Rwanda as a potential beginning for an e-waste movement across Africa. "We're talking with different governments in Africa to establish similar facilities in their countries," he says. One thing is certain: it will take all nations to combat the growing e-waste crisis.
【1】What can we know about e-waste recycling facility in Rwanda?
A．It is the first plant to reuse e-waste in Africa.
B．It is managed entirely by the government.
C．It has already processed 10,000 tons of e-waste.
D．It manages e-waste in an eco-friendly way.
【2】What can be inferred according to Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya?
A．Electronic devices are made of gold and silver.
B．E-waste can contain potential treasure.
C．Simple electronic devices are in great need.
D．Rwanda is the only nation to recycle e-waste.
【3】Which word can replace the underlined word "combat" in Paragraph 5?
A．Create.
B．Handle.
C．Discover.
D．Reach.
【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Rwanda is coping with the rising e-waste crisis.
