25、   China is racing to build a nationwide 5G network. Shanghai vice-mayor (副市长) Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X phone on March 30, CGTN reported. Shanghai is the first city in China to start a test run of 5G networks.

About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will allow people to download and upload data faster than ever. It will also be used in other areas.

5G is very helpful to the development of self-driving cars. Today’s self-driving test cars have one problem. When the car “see” an obstacle (障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and waits for instructions.

However, the car can crash if it doesn’t receive instructions in time. 5G networks would reduce the time it takes and make the cars safer, CNN noted.

5G could also power the internet of things (IOT, 物联网). This refers to a huge online network that connects everything and everyone. Very fast speeds are the key to realizing it. For example, with IOT, your refrigerator could order eggs online itself when it notices that there are no eggs left inside.

【1】The first 5G video call was made ____________.

A.in Beijing B.on March 31 C.by Wu Qing D.on an iPhone X

【2】5G is ______ faster than 4G.

A.10 times B.100 times C.1000 times D.0.1 times

【3】How can 5G networks help with the self-driving car? Put the following sentences in correct order. 

① When the car “see” an obstacle, it sends the information to a data center.

② The car receives the instructions in time with the help of 5G.

③ The car waits for instruction from 5G.

④ It helps the car avoid the accidents successfully.

A.①②③④ B.②④③① C.①③②④ D.④①②③

26、Experts know that a disaster is coming but they do not know when it will happen. They do know that it could cause a lot of damage. They think it will be worse than a hurricane. The disaster they are worried about is an earthquake.

There is a break in the earth’s crust (外壳). It is called the San Andreas Fault. The San Andreas Fault is in California. Many earthquakes happen along the San Andreas Fault. In 1989 there was a big earthquake on the fault. The earthquake was called the “Loma Prieta Earthquake”. Many people were hurt or died. Many buildings were ruined. Lots of people lost their homes. Roads and bridges were also damaged.

A large earthquake could happen in Southern California. Many small earthquakes have happened in the last year. Earthquake experts think that a large earthquake will happen there soon. They think a big earthquake will happen in the next few years.

The San Andreas Fault has many power lines stretched across it. There are water channels close to the earthquake fault. A large earthquake in Southern California would destroy energy and water supplies (供应). Lots of people would be without power or water for weeks. Buildings that have not been built strong enough would be destroyed. Not all hospitals would be able to help people who were injured. Many people would die or be homeless.

People need to be prepared. They need to know what to do if an earthquake happens. Everyone in California should have a survival kit at home. The emergency kit (应急箱) would include food and water. There should be medication and first aid supplies in the kit. A good survival kit will also have a portable radio, flashlights and spare batteries. All of the supplies in the kit should last at least 3 days.

27、   My elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after my father died when I was six years old.

Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took some time to ask me what happened. When I told him that my baseball had flown through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess to her. After all, I was supposed to be playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my voice shook as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the broken window from my pocket money.

I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it. Then Steve explained that it might be important to the loser although it had little value (价值). He also reminded (提醒) me of how sad I was when I lost the small dog my father made from a piece of cheap wood. At last, I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids. I still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on my shoulder.

Yet of all the lessons Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown bird in the garden with a gun. Excited with my accuracy, I asked Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “Even if it hurts you first, you should think a long time and then decide whether you will kill it or not.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.

【1】How many lessons Steve gave to Mark are mentioned in the passage?

A.One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.

【2】From the second paragraph, we know when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt, ________.

A.he felt surprised B.he felt excited C.he felt frightened D.he felt delighted

【3】The underlined word “confess” probably means ________.

A.apologize B.explain C.complain D.argue

【4】According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?

A.Respect for living things. B.Responsibility for one’s behavior.

C.The value of honesty. D.Care for the property of others.

【5】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.Mark was a boy when he wrote this passage.

B.Mark lost the small dog his father bought somewhere.

C.When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.

D.Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it at once.

【6】What’s the best title of the passage?

28、   Piao Wenyao fell in love with the game of go (围棋) when he started to play it at the age of 5. At the time he knew he would be a go 【1】for life. After many years of hard practice, he became 【2】youngest go world champion.

【3】February 23, 2011, Piao won the 15th LG World Cup final in Seoul and received a prize of 1.46 million yuan. It is Piao’s first international title. He was then only 22 years old.

【4】Piao was about 10 years old, he came to Beijing with his parents to learn go. A terrible accident 【5】not long after and his father was killed in an underpass. It was a big blow (打击) to the family. Piao’s mother had to work harder to support 【6】son in education.

Piao began to shine and became 【7】in 2005. The whole world was talking about him. But Piao never showed off.

In 2008, Piao entered the final of an important international 【8】. He started off strong, but his rival (对手) later caught up to him and Piao ended up【9】the match. This loss was a terrible and disappointing failure for Piao.

But even during these dark times Piao never thought of quitting. What gives him such strong determination (决心)? “The game of go has a special charm (魔力)【10】makes me give my whole heart. Try your best and finally get the victory – it is the best thing in the world,” he said.

Ronny’s Book

Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, Ronny was different from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t   like other kids in his grade.

The pages were already dog-eared (卷角的), like the book had been read thousands of   already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction, “ book!"

 What a powerful contribution the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child.
