Future roads with 5G
In sci-fi movies, you might see cars that can drive by themselves – you tell them where you want to go, and they take you there as fast as possible. With 5G, cars like this may soon turn into reality.
Finland’s “robot buses” are a good example. Telecoms (电信) company Nokia has installed (安装) 5G transmitters (信号发射器) in 15 lampposts (路灯柱) along a 1-km road. These transmitters are able to control (控制) the buses, making them driverless, according to Raconteur Media.
There are also 5G roads. These roads would also have many 5G transmitters. They can provide smart services, such as telling you where the nearest gas station (加油站) is.
These roads could also be used to control traffic. “Transport bodies will be able to manage a road network (网络) in real time, controlling traffic lights, traffic flow (车流) through computer programs,” said Guy Matthews, director at CGI UK, a tech consultancy company.
Public transportation can also benefit (受益) from 5G and smart tech. In the South Korean city of Seoul, a smart management system has been set up in one of the city’s subway stations. This system has many advanced features (功能), including a 3D map, sensors (传感器) and an advanced camera system that make the station more efficient and safe, according to Arirang News.
And of course, there are driverless cars. These cars can send signals (信号) to each other. They also “talk” to traffic lights and road sensors. 5G will allow these cars to drive more safely (安全地) because they can communicate with each other, as well as with traffic lights and road sensors.
6．What does the underlined phrase “reality” mean
A．幻想 B．科幻 C．现实 D．小说
7．________ can control the buses.
A．5G transmitters B．Lampposts
C．Gas station D．Sensors
8．5G roads can be used to________.
A．provide smart services
B．tell people where the nearest gas station is
C．control traffic
D．All of the above.
9．Which of the following is true according to the passage
A．5G is not smart sometimes.
B．5G can improve traffic safety.
C．5G cannot be used in public transportation.
D．Driverless cars cannot communicate with each other.
10．What’s the passage mainly about
A．How to control traffic.
B．The invention process of 5G.
C．Application of 5G in transportation.
D．The disadvantages of 5G.

Robots as we know them started out as science fiction. But how are they changed from fiction into fact Let’s take a short tour down the development of robots.
A Shakey start
In 1954, Unimate, a large robotic arm, became the world’s first industrial robot. For a long time, robots were only found in factories or laboratories. Shakey, developed between 1966 and 1972, was the world’s first mobile intelligent robot. Shakey’s software has since led to robotic cleaners and self-driving cars.
Helping hands
Eventually, robots found their way into homes and classrooms. In 1999, the Japanese company Sony released a robotic pet dog called Aibo. Then, in 2006, a French company introduced a robot called NAO, which is used by schools around the world to help teachers with lessons.
Out of this world
Robots have become an important part of space missions. Recently, the Curiosity Rover robot from a space agency is exploring the surface of Mars. The International Space Station has a human-like robot called Robonaut 2 (R2) that performs a series of repair tasks so that the astronauts (宇航员) have more time to focus on scientific research.
Into the future
Some people fear that robots will take too many jobs away from humans, which is called automation. According to studies, up to 20 million factory jobs worldwide could be taken by robots in the next 10 years. However, some experts think that the use of robots will allow businesses to create more jobs than have been lost. Meanwhile, the coronavirus pandemic (新冠肺炎) has shown how robots and humans can work together. In Singapore, a robotic dog called Spot has been used to help enforce social distancing. Looking ahead, whether it’s in education, entertainment or space research, robots will play a big part in the future of humanity.
11．The world’s first industrial robot was ________.
A．Unimate B．Shakey C．Aibo D．NAO
12．Robonaut 2 is a robot that ________.
A．explores the surface of Mars B．looks like a pet dog
C．does repair work for astronauts D．focuses on scientific research
13．What does the underline word “automation” in the last paragraph probably mean in Chinese ________
A．自动化 B．规模化 C．人工化 D．信息化
14．The author’s attitude towards the role of robots in the future is ________.
A．hopeful B．worried C．uncertain D．doubtful
15．What is the text mainly about ________
A．What robots can do. B．How robots develop.
C．Who invented robots. D．Why robots are useful.
D
Sometimes I dream about life in the future. What will it be
16 And some scientists will build cities under the sea to make people live there. We can have a medical examination or do some shopping without leaving our homes, which makes the life more convenient (方便的). 17
And I’m sure there will be more educational programmes on the radio or TV or over the Internet or videophones, so perhaps some children won’t need to go to school every day. 18
In the future, all electric equipment (电子设备) at home is under the control of computers. People can learn about the situation of the house by working on the computer at the office. 19 Maybe each family will have a robot. Every day we can tell the robot how to do the shopping, housework and so on.
20
A．No one likes doing the housework.
B．Maybe we will also work at home.
C．I believe the dream will come true some day.
D．They’ll study at home.
E．Perhaps some people will go to the moon for a holiday or even live on the moon.
