21、Amazing Train Journeys

The Beijing to Lhasa Express, China

Departs daily; Distance—2,330 miles; Duration—40 hours

Linking the royal wonders of Beijing with the dreamlike palaces of Lhasa, the Z21 train travels from the modernity of urban China to a once-remote land. Running westward, the train climbs nearly 16,400 ft (5,000 m) on its journey to the roof of the world: the Tibetan Plateau.

London to Fort William on the Caledonian Sleeper, UK

Departs daily; Distance—509 miles; Duration—13 hours 30 minutes

This overnight train journey is filled with the romance of rail travel. It’s just a pity that the whole experience—from dining-car chatting and light beer, to being carried into a la-la land by the rhythm of the rails and waking to bedside views of towering peaks—feels like it’s over in a flash. Though it may be short, the Caledonian is surely Britain’s best train ride.

Tazara Railway, Tanzania and Zambia

Departs twice a week; Distance—1,160 miles; Duration—46 hours

Few trains offer the chance of spotting big game from your seat, but the Tazara Railway does exactly that. For many, the highlight is neither the scenery nor the wildlife, though; it’s the chance to spend two days watching everyday life out of the window, and enjoying the crowds and chaos when the train pulls to a stop.

Perurail’s Lake Titicaca Railway, Peru

Departs twice a week; Distance—241 miles; Duration—10 hours

Traveling across the Altiplano, from the shores of Lake Titicaca to the beating heart of the Inca capital, the railway from Puno to Cuzco cuts a picturesque path through the snow-dusted peaks and fantastic valleys of the Andes. Passengers can enjoy the landscape from an open-air observatory car, as they travel through remote towns and villages.

【1】What do the first two train journeys have in common?

A．They make weekly departure.

B．They are over a thousand miles.

C．They travel to highlands.

D．They are the longest train rides nationwide.

【2】On which journey can passengers watch people’s daily life outside the train?

A．Tazara Railway.

B．The Beijing to Lhasa Express.

C．Perurail’s Lake Titicaca Railway.

D．London to Fort William on the Caledonian Sleeper.

【3】What can passengers do on Perurail’s Lake Titicaca Railway?

A．Travel around Lake Titicaca.

B．Admire the view in the open air.

C．Go through two countries on a journey.

D．Have a deep understanding of towns and villages.

23、   On a recent night， while I was busy thinking about important social issues， like what to do over the week﹣end and who to do it with， I overheard my parents talking about my future． My dad was upset ﹣ not the usual stuff that he and Mom and， I guess， a lot of parents worry about like which college I' m going to， how far away it is from home． Instead， he was upset about the world his generation is turning over to mine， a world he fears has a dark and difficult future﹣﹣if it has a future at all．

"There will be a disease that kills millions， a disastrous energy crisis， a horrible worldwide depression and a nuclear explosion set off in anger．"

As I lay on the living room couch， listening to their conversation， starting to worry about the future my father was describing， I found myself looking at some old family photos．  There was a picture of my grandfather who was a member of the class of 1942， the war class．  Next to his picture were photos of my great﹣grandparents． Seeing those pictures made me feel a lot better． I believe tomorrow will be better than today ﹣﹣that the world my generation grows into is going Lo get better， not worse． Those pictures helped me understand why．

I considered some of the awful things my grandparents and great﹣grandparents had seen in their lifetimes： two world wars， killer flu， segregation（隔离） ， a nuclear bomb．  But they saw other things， too， better things： the end of two world wars， passage of the civil rights laws．

I believe that my generation will see better things， too﹣﹣that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated． I will see things as incredible to me today as the internet to my father when he was 16．

B. Though the world was full of terrible things， it would get better．

C. All those terrible things that worried the author actually didn't exist．

24、We have heard some interesting ways that 5G wireless technology might change our lives in the future.

5G short for the 5th generation mobile communication technology, promises Internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than current 4G systems. While 5G is set to be used in some limited areas of America this year, much of the world is not expected to receive widely available service until 2023.

One project in Britain, however, is already testing this super fast technology on an unlikely group of Internet users—cows. The project was developed by American technology company Cisco Systems. It also receives money from the British government. Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas around the world.

Testing areas were set up at farms in three rural areas of England. The cows are equipped with 5G-connected devices (装置) that link up to a robotic milking system, which 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 individual cow. It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process, machines release food for the cow as a reward.

Other 5G technology tools include automated brushes that turn on when the cow rubs up against them. Sensors also control the amount of light to the cows’ living areas depending on the weather. And an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough to eat.

Duncan Forbes, head of the project, told Reuters that the project shows the farm’s cow operations can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future, not just on farms in Britain, but in rural communities across the world.

【1】What is the purpose of Cisco Systems’ program?

A．To win financial support from British government.

B．To test the effects of 5G technology on animals.

C．To promote its technological development in Britain.

D．To expand the future use of 5G in rural communities.

【2】What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A．The company.

B．The project.

C．The technology.

D．The group.

【3】What can we learn about 5G according to the text?

A．It is no worse than 4G in terms of speed.

B．It enables cows to control their own milking.

C．It is already widely available in the world.

D．It makes cows eat less and milk more than before.

【4】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A．Entertainment.

B．Lifestyle.

C．Technology.

D．Education.
