24、   I remember the day that I was changed into a new class and I felt unwanted.

The first day that I was in my class, my table didn’t talk to me and I didn’t either. The next  day in that class, the teacher let me sit next to this girl who had her pierced ears, lips and nose. She said, “You’re new to class, aren’t you? Well, my name is Ashley.” I looked at her for a second and then said, “Hi.” She knew that I was shy. She introduced me to the rest of the table loudly, who didn’t look nice, but then again I thought Ashley was wild when I saw her up close.

That whole week the other girls at my table would look at me like a hungry animal who was to kill its prey (猎物) and they whisper to one another about my looks and how I wasn’t wanted in this class.

One day I felt upset and Ashley asked, “What’s wrong?” I didn’t answer but she found out that I went through bullying (威逼), and depression. Then I told her what was up. She said, “I thought you were a rich girl with good grades and no problems, but I was wrong.” The rest of the table heard about the real me and they apologized for what they had said.

Later, Ashley introduced me to new people who had gone through the same things that I had. Thanks to Ashley, I was no longer alone in the world. And that same day I met Perla, my best friend now, who taught me not to judge others on their appearance. I really understood it from Ashley.

25、   If you look at the top of your phone, you'll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4G. The “G” stands for the “generation” (代) of your mobile network. But the symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive.

On March 30, Shanghai vice­mayor Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X Smartphone.Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks.

About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data(数据) faster than ever before. But 5G won't just bring faster mobile internet. People can use it for many other things as well.

For example, 5G will help to make self­driving cars safer. Today's self­driving test cars have one problem—lag(延迟). When the car “sees” an obstacle(障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions. However, it will be some time before it sends and receives this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don't receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer.

5G could also be used to power the internet of things(IOT), that is, a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. The IOT could be used in a lot of ways. For example, with IOT, your refrigerator could automatically(自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside.

【1】________ tested 5G for the first time.

A.Beijing B.Guangzhou C.Shenzhen D.Shanghai

【2】From the passage, we can infer(推断)that ________．

A.5G is widely used in China now

B.5G networks will make our lives more convenient

C.there are no symbols at the top of our phones

D.5G networks make no difference

【3】The writer uses self­driving cars as an example to ________．

A.explain how 5G's fast speed can be helpful

B.warn about the possible dangers of self­driving cars

C.explain how self­driving cars work

D.ask people to use self­driving cars

【4】IOT is ________ according to the passage.

A.a robot that can do housework

B.an online store where you can buy anything

C.a large online network that connects things and people

D.an app you can control your car

27、A few weeks ago, I went into Chase's class for help. I e-mailed Chase's teacher one evening and said, "My son keeps telling me that the thing you're sending home is math -- but I'm not sure I believe him. Help, please." She e-mailed right back and said, "No problem! I can help Chase after school anytime." And I said, "No, not him. Me. He gets it. Help me."

And that’s why I stayed with Chase’s math teacher. We talked about teaching children. We agreed that subjects like math and reading are not the most important things that are learned in a classroom. We also talked about something else —— kindness and bravery.

And then she told me this.

Every Friday afternoon Chase's teacher asks her students to take out a piece of paper and write down the names of four children with whom they'd like to sit the following week. She also asks the students to nominate(推荐) one student who they think is the most popular student that week. They needn’t write down their names on the paper.

After the students go home, she takes out those pieces of paper, and studies them.

In fact, Chase's teacher is not looking for a new seating chart or "popular students." She is looking for lonely children. She's looking for the ones who are unwilling to connect with others. She is discovering whose gifts are not noticed by their classmates. Then she gets to know who needs help.

After watching Columbine the wise woman realized that all violence(暴力) comes from loneliness. So she decided to start fighting violence early and often, and what she is doing is SAVING LIVES.

And she finds the lonely kids through those lists and tries to help them. It's math to her. All is love – even math.

A. Chase   B. Chase’s teacher

C. Chase’s parent D. the popular student

【2】Why does Chase’s teacher ask her students to write down some names on paper?

A. Because She is looking for the popular student.

B. Because she is looking for a new seating chart.

C. Because she wants to help her students learn math.

a. The students write down some names

b. The students take out paper

c. Chase’s teacher helps the lonely kids

d. Chase’s teacher studies the lists

e. Chase’s teacher finds who needs help

A. badce B. badec C. abdce D. adbec

【4】The best title should be ______?
