After university in 2011, Samuel went to a rural primary school for native children, where, on his first day, another teacher told him, "Samuel, you don't have to do much, they're just Orang Asli-native children." This was what Samuel would spend years fighting against.
The Orang Asli community has struggled with poverty, melting into society, and losing their own identity and culture due to others' disregard of it. Samuel saw that the main barrier in teaching these children was the attitude on the part of many teachers that the native children were not worth their efforts. It was thought that whatever was taught would make no difference, so nobody bothered to try. The children themselves ended up believing these stigmas (污名), often doubting what they can achieve. Teachers skipped or slept in classes, and little effort was made to create an appropriate learning environment. Consequently, the school was one of the worst-performing in the district.
Samuel bonded with his native students and accepted their culture, leading him to see their potential. However, he also came to see that they did not have equal opportunities compared to urban schools, due to the lack of facilities. So he set up a crowdfunding project to create a fully equipped 21st-century English classroom with tablets and computers. The Orang Asli children now learn technology, experience English and communicate in English with volunteers all over Malaysia and overseas.
Consequently, the students have improved in national standardized examinations, from a pass rate of 30% in English (2008- 2012) to an average of 80% (2013-2017). These efforts have resulted in a shift of what local children are considered capable of academically.
4.What did the teacher's words suggest about the native children
A. They were intelligent.
B. They were hopeless.
C. They were unfriendly.
5.What major problem did Samuel need to solve
A. The poverty of local people.
B. The lack of facilities in his school.
C. The prejudice against the native kids.
D. The unsuitable teaching methods.
6.What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The change of native students.
B. The importance of learning English.
C. The improvement of native education.
D. Samuel's work for the native kids.
7.What can we learn from Samuel's story
A. Respect makes a big difference.
B. The academic performance comes first.
C. Everyone deserves access to education.
D. One method can't apply to each situation.
C
Walmart will soon use 360 robot cleaners across a few hundred of its stores. Using maps input by human employees, the AI-powered cleaners will travel in the store with no difficulty, sweeping the floor--just as human employees used to do.
Perhaps the most striking thing about these robot workers is how not-striking they are. Sci-fi movies suggest a future full of human-like robots who appear with their horrible qualities. Now the future is coming into view, and it looks like a giant lie. It's easy to imagine walking past an Auto-C on a shopping trip without even noticing its presence.
AI has already started to become a part of our everyday life. In New Jersey this week, dozens of workers were hospitalized after a robot at an Amazon fulfillment centre accidentally broke a can and enveloped workers in eye-and-lung-damaging gas. Days earlier in California, an auto-piloted Tesla drove a drunk, sleeping driver down a highway, which no doubt did some potential risk to the other drivers on the road. Highway patrol officers figured out on the spot how to stop the AI car.
Of course, industrial accidents and drunk drivers existed well before AI. Tools with the power to release the burden of physical labor-horses, steam machines, self-driving cars also come with the power to injure. And the presence of AI-powered machines just steps away from us is, for now, still a rare thing for most people.
But the nature of robots' coming into our daily life lives will make it harder to recognize- or object to- the bigger changes they bring later. Walmart insists that the robot cleaners give employees more time for customer service and other tasks. Critics point out that they could just as easily become an excuse to reduce staff and wages.
8. What is the difference between sci-fi movies and the reality
A. Now the human-like robots is hard to recognize.
B. Now people don't go to see the sci-fi movies.
C. Now the human-like robots can tell lies.
D. Now it is easy to ignore the robots.
9. Why were some workers in hospital in New Jersey
A. They damaged the robot first.
B. The robot caused an accident on purpose.
C. The robot made a mistake by chance.
D. The robot driving them on the highway had an accident.
10. What is the attitude of the author to AI
A. Supportive B. Objective C. Doubtful D. Indifferent
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Artificial intelligence is bringing great effect to our daily life.
B. Walmart will soon use 360 robot cleaners across its stores.
C. We should say no to artificial intelligence.
D. Artificial intelligence is dangerous to our life.
D
It's easy to forget What communications life was like before 4G. Since its introduction around 2010, mobile subscribers using 4G have enjoyed excellent connectivity. They can stream music, videos and movies, even while conducting video chats. But over the next few years, the launch of 5G networks around the world will bring in exciting capabilities that are much more advanced and beneficial.
Due to 5G's higher connection speed, mobility and capacity, this next-generation network is expected to enable innovative software fora range of advanced application. For example, they permit surgeons to perform microscopic surgery from remote locations.
Communications service providers (CSPs) will continue to support existing networks while they invest in new infrastructure (基础设施) to support 5G. In a recent blog, Jan-Piere Brilard, VMware senior vice president, writes: “For CSPs, it is major project, which is why it is likely that rather than a pure 5G network, the majority of people will see a blended approach, where 4G is available to deliver basic services, and 5G is introduced for specific tasks.”
Brulard adds,“With 5G, companies can access the levels and sped of connectivity they need by taking advantage of the same changing technologies—such as Internet of Things (IoT), edge computing and AI—that
are going to shape the next stage of the digital revolution."
Processing IoT and AI in an accelerated 5G world means computing, storage and networking need to be done closer to the end user, which is different from the traditional data center method of data processing. Organizations can remotely manage, monitor and secure thousands of locations and millions of diverse devices. This helps to ensure the rapid delivery of the latest apps, containers and infrastructure updates.
5G can lead to better, accelerated access to healthcare and education, and people can enjoy safer driving conditions, among other digitally fueled benefits.
12.What is the purpose of the release of 5G networks
A. To replace networks.
B. To strengthen excellent connectivity.
C. To ensure the success of microscopic surgery.
D. To make advanced applications more effective.
13. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word“blended" in paragraph 3
A. Simple B. Combined C. Advanced D. Modern
14. How does the 5G digital revolution benefit people more
A. By storing traditional data.
B. By changing diverse devices.
C. By processing the latest data.
D. By having a better access to education.
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Health B. Education C. Science D. Entertainment

It's been a common problem that most of popular kids' apps contain some form of marketing. App developers and platforms make more money when more ads are viewed or clicked. Children, with their weaker self-control, are a prime target. Some developers use manipulative ( 操纵性的) approaches like showing a fancy present, which takes the children to an ad when clicked. 16 . Don' t worry. Here's how you can intervene.
Examine before downloading apps. Your children can't download apps without you entering your password, so you can review apps before they are downloaded. 17 . People usually post complaints when apps are packed with ads.
Teach your kids to look for help. When ads pop up inside apps, make sure your kids don't play or download the advertised game immediately. 18 . In this way, they learn to identify strange ads and have the apps removed.
19 . You may start with these questions: Do you ever get tricked by the app, like you think something is a present, and they just show you an ad Do they ever force you to watch ads to get more fun things in the app
Make complaint if necessary. Even some school-issued apps pressure families to purchase accounts. If this
happens to you, complain to your school district.
Raising kids in the Internet age means teaching them to recognize when someone is trying to sell them new things or new ideas, from toys to misinformation. 20 .
A. Ask your children often.
B. Ask about your kid' preferences
C. They have to understand the tricks of in-app advertising.
D. With proper guidance, kids can grow up to be critical digital thinkers.
E.Instead, they should be taught to be alert, and tum to adults for advice
F.Then you can read reviews on websites or check-the reviews in the app store
G.Unfortunately, there are no laws restricting how many ads can pop up in children's apps
