四．阅读理解
(A)
Hundreds of people joined the premiere(首映) of the
movie My People, My Country at a Los Angeles cinema
on Sept. 30. With Chinese flags in their hands, people sang
My People, My Country at the start of the film, the song
that serves as a thread(线索) throughout the movie.
The song is a patriotic Chinese classic. It shows people’s love for the country and is widely
known in China. It was first performed by singer Li Guyi in 1985 and was reworked for the movieby pop singer Faye Worn.
There are seven short stories from seven directors in it. Led by Chen Kaige, the film draws on the
nation’s greatest technology and culture achievements starting with the founding of the People’s
Republic of China in 1949.
Yet the film does not talk about the historical moments themselves, but shows events through the
eyes of normal people who are influenced by them. For example, the short story The Guiding Star
follows a pair of brothers. In the story, the landing of Shenzhou XI changed the lives of the two
teenagers and allowed them to get new hope when they saw it.
In another short story, Going Home, Simon Yam plays a clock repairer who witnessed the return
of Hong Kong from British rule in 1997. The actor himself has experienced the power of hope. “On
the day of Hong Kong’s return, I felt it wasn’t just a return to the motherland, but the return of
hearts,” he told China.org.cn. “When the flag was raised, I felt like ‘We are home’. ‘We feel
proud’.”
The film certainly stuck a patriotic chord (引起共鸣) with many people. It came in first among 267
films since 2015.
( ) 1. My People, My Country is EXCEPT__________.
A. a song B. a book C. a film.
( ) 2. What does the underlined word “patriotic” mean in Chinese?
A. 爱国的 B. 安静的 C. 浪漫的
( ) 3. The two brothers might feel__________when seeing the landing of Shenzhou XI.
A. upset B. doubtful C. hopeful
( ) 4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?
A. British rule over Hong Kong ended in 1997.
B. The film shows events of the great people.
C. Chen Kaige is not the only director of the film.
( ) 5. Why is My People, My Country so successful?
A. Because the song with the same name is a Chinese classic.
B. Because the film draws on the nation’s greatest achievements and it is touching.
C. Because it is directed by some famous directors.
(B)
Your Internet experience will be influenced when thenet speed is too slow－it takes so long to open a web page and the reality show you’re watching stops
every few minutes. That can be very unpleasant. But it could be a thing of the past after 5G networks
fully arrived.
The “G” stands for the“generation”of your mobile network. IG let us talk to each other,2G let
us send messages,3G gave us mobile data and the Internet,and 4G made all of these things faster.
About 100 times faster than 4G networks,5G will let people enjoy a faster Internet speed than ever
before. This means that you will be able to download(下载) an HD movie in seconds with a short
delay(延迟).But 5G won’t just bring faster mobile Internet. People can use it for many other
things as well.
With a 5G network, the short delay in information exchange will allow driverless cars to run more
safely,as they will be able to communicate in real time and avoid unexpected dangers. At the same
time,5G-enabled wearable devices(设备)will keep doctors know what is happening to their
patients and let them know in time if there’s something wrong.Besides,VR games will become more
popular with 5G. The short delay of 5G will make the games feel even more real.
According to the BBC,though 5G will make our lives more convenient,it will not be perfect.
For one thing, 5G will not“travel”far. On 4G networks, you can be 10 kilometers away from the nearest
transmission base( 传 输 基 站 )and seldom lose signal. But 5G will only cover about 300
meters,meaning that we will need more transmitters so that we can get signals. In order to use 5G,
we will have to buy new products exactly made for 5G that are expensive now.
( ) 1.After 5G is widely used,__________.
A. opening a web page and the reality show can become a past thing.
B. the Internet speed will be faster when surf the Internet.
C. we won’t have the unpleasant feelings any more.
( ) 2. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. we cannot download an HD movie with 4G.
B. 3G makes it possible for us to go shopping online.
C. Faster mobile Internet is the only improvement for 5G
( ) 3.What does the writer mean to do in Paragraph 3?
A. To give examples about the convenience brought by 5G.
B. To show different opinions from the possible 5G users.
C. To question the possibility of using 5G in daily life.( ) 4.According to the BBC,__________.
A. you won’t lose signals while using 5G.
B. downsides of 5G overweigh its upsides.
C. 5G can be used on certain mobile phones.
( ) 5. What is the best title of the passage?
A. 5G Will Make Life More Convenient
B. 5G Is Being Widely Used
C. 5G－A Perfect Technology for Fun
