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 phone network. But these symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive.
On March 30, Shanghai vice-mayor Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X smartphone, CGTN reported. 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 faster than ever before. But 5G won't just bring faster mobile Internet. People can use it to do many other things as well.
For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today's self-driving test cars have one problem-lag （延迟）. When the car "sees" an obstacle （障碍物）, it sends he information to a data center and receives instructions. However, it takes time to send and receive the 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 according to CNN.
5G could also be used to power the Internet of Things （IoT）. This means 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 fridge could automatically （自动地） place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left.（1）In which city was 5G tested for the first time in China?

C. Self-driving test cars might not crash if they can receive instructions in time.
D. The IoT is a fridge that can order eggs automatically when there are no eggs left.
（4）The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. the IoT
B. 5G networks
C. self-driving cars
D. Huawei smartphones
【答案】（1）B
（2）C
（3）C
（4）B
【解析】【分析】主要讲了5G网络及其用途。

根据Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks.可知上海是第一个开始测试5G网络的城市，故选B。

（2）细节题。

One day in a restaurant, the American writer Anne Herbert wrote this sentence on a piece of
paper: "Random（任意的） actions of kindness." Later she repeated it in an interview on a TV show, and it soon caught people's eyes and made people think about how small "kind" actions could make our daily lives better.
One rainy night, a woman was standing at a bus stop waiting for the bus. A man came by on a motorcycle and offered to give her a ride. Of course, the woman said no. It would be crazy to accept a ride from a stranger on a motorcycle. Suddenly the man reached out and put a 50-dollar bill in her hand. He said, "Please take a taxi. It hurts me to see you standing here in the rain." Before she could refuse, he left quickly on his motorcycle.
Kind actions can be contagious. Once, a woman was going through a toll station（收费站） on a highway. Instead of paying for one ticket, she asked for two. She said to the toll collector, "The second ticket is for the car behind me." She didn't know the person in that car. She just did it without thinking more. So when the next car came up, the toll collector said to the driver, "You don't have to pay. The woman in the blue car just paid for you." The driver was so surprised that he decided to pay for the person behind him. This continued with 14 drivers that day.
So just imagine what the world will be like if we all practice random actions of kindness from time to time?
（1）When the man on the motorcycle offered to give a ride, the woman probably felt he is______.

A. it's necessary to take time to plan for it

C. Have you ever done any random actions of kindness?
D. Will more people accept random actions of kindness?

I've been dancing since I was 14, when my best friend asked me to go to an after-school dance class with her. I enjoyed that dance class and from then on, I began to dance. After every class, I always have to stretch out（拉伸）my legs and back! It feels like as much exercise as a sport.
However, most people think dancing isn't a sport. They think it's an art form（艺术形式）. It is easy to see why those people think so. Dancing to music is relaxing and enjoyable, just like watching a play.
On the other hand, many people think that dancing is a sport. No matter what kind of dance you do, you always use all of your muscles （肌肉）. So, dancers are often just as athletic as football players, runners or swimmers.
In my opinion, dancing is both a sport and an art form. It has brought me great fun and improved my health.
Anyway, whether you think of dancing to be a sport or an art form, the important thing is to enjoy it! Dancing is a really fun way to exercise!

11．阅读下面的材料，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

Do you know "Weibo Addicts" （微博控）? Do you write a Weibo? If you don't, you are "out"! Weibo means microblog. People may spend much time writing a blog, but it takes a little time to write a microblog. Why? Because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words. Microblog started in the USA.

For many microblog users, it is a great way of learning the freshest news, talking with friends and sharing different kinds of information, including news, everyday life, pictures, music, videos and so on.
It is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog. However, this can also bring problems and even panic （恐慌）. For example, when the big earthquake and tsunami （海啸） hit Japan in March, 2011, messages like "Salt can help people fight radiation （辐射）" were hot on microblogs. Then a crazy buying of salt followed.
