(2020·河南郑州·高二期中) There have been a lot of comments recently surrounding 5G, the next generation of wireless technology.31. How might it change our lives
5G stands for fifth generation, meaning the next step in the progression of technology to replace the current 4G system. Earlier “G” systems were designed to improve mobile communication operations. Each new technology brought major improvements in speed and greatly increased network capacity (容量).32. It is expected to permit more users to do more things at a faster rate.
However, technology experts say there is a major way that 5G is different from the earlier systems.33. It will affect many more devices and industries than other “G” versions.
5G will help fuel future “smart cities” by connecting sensor networks. 5G is also expected to connect self-driving cars and support new technologies involving virtual reality (虚拟现实). Higher 5G speeds could also permit doctors to commonly perform remote medical operations. Factories and businesses could use 5G technology to increase automation and improve the collection of information.
34. The increased data flow across 5G networks would give Internet attackers a lot more possibilities to steal and misuse data. In addition, the wider use of a 5G wireless network means any breakdown of the system would have more widespread and severe results. Such difficulties could affect public safety.35., or a network breakdown could cause self-driving vehicles to crash.
A.Why is 5G so popular
B.What is this technology
C.Every coin has two sides
D.The new 5G system promises more of the same
E.It will move beyond mobile network technology
F.A breakdown of 5G networks may cause economic losses
G.A failure during a doctor's remote operation could lead to death

(2021·北京门头沟·二模)Mobile technology impacts all areas of our lives today. The early mobile phones, often referred to as 0G mobile phones, led to the phones used now which rely on 4G or 5G mobile technology. The mobile revolution has enabled global communities to form, but there are concerns too, the impact of which we look at here.
The mobile revolution has seen all of us spend more time online than ever before. Whether catching up with family, shopping, doing research, watching movies or gaming, all of these are now all possible at any time, wherever we are.
Nowadays, almost all businesses offer mobile-accessible sites for smartphones and tablets. Whether you are placing an order for a new pair of jeans, researching the best financial advisor or wanting to play a casino game on the move like blackjack mobile, it is really easy to do all of these. 36.
Since the launch of social media in 1997 with Six Degrees, which allowed users to upload a profile and make friends with other users, there are now many other social media platforms like Facebook (2004). 37. These offer global communication on a scale never seen before which have led to the rise of social movements such as Black Lives Matter.
38. The Cambridge Analytica scandal (丑闻) concerning Facebook involved the harvesting of Facebook data of 87 million people that was used for advertising during elections. Also, for young people in particular, social media can harm their self-worth.
Mobile technology means that we have access to information at our fingertips, wherever we are. “Google is your friend” is now listed in urban dictionaries, showing how many of us search for instant answers without doing more than pull out our phones or ask Alexa. 39.
The mobile revolution has also seen a rise in fitness devices worn on the wrist. Not only recording lap times, fitness devices can also monitor pulse rates, blood pressure and sleeping patterns. 40.

(2021·河南·一模) SQRRR or SQ3R introduced by Francis P. Robinson is a reading comprehension method named for its five steps: survey, question, read, recite, and review.
Survey
The first step, survey or skim, advises that one should go through a chapter and note headings, sub-headings and other outstanding features. 16., but it provides an outline or framework for what will be presented.

It is important that the reader use his/her own words in order to formulate and conceptualize the material. Try recalling and identifying major points (heading/ sub-headings) and answers to questions from the “Q’ step. 19..
Review (R)
The final “R” is “Review”. Once you reach the end of the passage, say back to yourself what the point of the whole passage is — again, using your own words. 20. Classrooms all over the world have begun using this method to better understand what they are reading.

(2021·宁夏·银川一中三模) Reading poetry can be challenging, but learning how to carefully move through a poem is also very rewarding,36. But, by following the tips below, anyone can have the deeply rewarding experience of connecting to a great poem.
Sound abounds (有许多). Poetry is made to be heard.

38.Many poems may use words or reference places or times in history that may be unfamiliar to you. Be curious enough to look up all the words and references that you're unfamiliar with. You should also gather information about the poet, what was happening in their lives, and what was going on in the world around them. All of these can offer essential context to bring the poem to life.
Analyze the figurative (比喻的) language in the poem. Figurative language could be words that are repeated often in the poem or words that rhyme in each stanza (节). To get more into the figurative meaning of the poem, you should look at how the poet use literary devices like metaphor, simile, and imagery. 39.
Finally, you don't have to understand it to engage with it and enjoy it If you like the way a poem sounds when you read it aloud, but don't know what it “means," that's OK! 40.The great thing about art is that it can have lots of different meanings or seemingly no meaning at all and can still be enjoyed. The same goes for poetry.

B.Look up the words you do not understand.
C.They are often used to add deeper meaning to the poem.
D.Maybe it makes sense in a way that you can't necessarily express.
E.Once you find a poem that interests you, read it out loud several times.
F.You should also pay attention to how the poet opens and closes the poem.
G.Unlike painting and music, poetry requires a little extra effort to harvest its full effects.
