BThe Right Thing “Hi, Mrs. Grady,” said Mark when their neighbor opened her door. “Would you like us to shovel （铲除） your sidewalk and driveway?” Shoveling was Jamies idea, a way to earn enough money

9、for the new Ocean Kingdom video game that came out the next day. Mrs. Grady was happy, “That would be wonderful, boys. I think the job is getting to be too much for me.” “It will cost 10 dollars,” Jamie said, “If thats OK,” Mark added. “Oh dear,” Mrs. Grady said disappointedly, “I havent been able t

10、o get to the bank. I can offer homemade cookies, but I realize thats not what you had in mind.” Mark was going to say that Mrs. Grady could pay them another time, but Jamie cut him off. “Well come back later.” Jamie hesitated but Mark remembered what happened last summer when Mr. Dunns collie （牧羊犬）,

11、 Goldie had just wanted to play, but Mark didnt feel comfortable around big dogs. He wanted to call for help, but his tongue seemed locked behind his teeth. Then Mrs. Gradys front door had flown open. She must have seen him from across the street. “Hold on, Mark. Im coming !” “Goldie” shed called. A

12、s soon as Goldie had turned her head, Mrs. Grady had slipped between Mark and the dog. She wasnt much taller than Mark, but shed stood from as a rock in front of him. “Goldie, go home!” Then shed swept her broom to hurry the dog along. “Get!” Goldie had obeyed. When Mark showed thanks to Mrs. Grady,

13、 Mrs. Grady laughed, “It was nothing. Good neighbors watch out for each other, dont they?” And now Mrs. Grady needed Mark as much as hed needed her last summer. He smiled and waved at Mrs. Grady, then his shovel deep into the snow. “Hey!” Jamie shouted. “What are you doing?” Mark couldnt explain abo

14、ut Goldie and watching out for neighbors. “I like Mrs. Gradys cookies,” he said.4. Why did Jamie and Mark plan to clear the snow for Mrs. Grady at first?A. To help the lady. B. To do volunteer work. C. To earn pocket money. D. To visit New Kingdom.5. Mrs. Grady couldnt pay them most probably because

15、 _.A. she didnt have enough cash B. she couldnt find the bank C. she thought it was worthless D. she couldnt afford it6. According to the story, which of the following words can be used to describe Mrs. Grady?A. Greedy B. Indifferent C. Mean D. Helpful7. Which of the following proverb can best summa

16、rize the story?A. A penny saved is a penny earned. B. Kindness is repaid with kindness.C. A clear conscience is a sure card. D. Actions speak louder than words.CAll networks like 3G and 4G will be things of the past, because 5G will be reachable in the near future. So, whats so special about a 5G fu

17、ture? First of all, its download speed can be as fast as 20 GB/s, which is 100 to 200 times that of 4G. but whats more impressive is 5Gs low delay rate. Now, 4G takes an average of 200 milliseconds （毫秒） to send and receive information. But 5G will get it down to 1 millisecond.5G is a great breakthro

18、ugh. Its going to change the way equipment connects to the Internet, and more importantly, to each other. And self-driving cars may be one of the biggest breakthroughs to come out of 5G. human reaction time is 200 milliseconds, yet we still have accidents every day. The self-driving car under a 5G n

19、etwork could react and communicate its reaction to hundreds of cars around it, all within 1 millisecond. Itll play a great role in preventing car accidents and ending traffic jams completely.5G can benefit us in many other ways. Operations could be performed by robots controlled by experts from the

20、other side of the world. Therefore, more lives will be saved in time. Factories can be staffed by robots that can communicate their tasks to each other, and they can do more work efficiently over a 5G network. Imagine a group of drones （无人机） flying over a field of crops, using sensors （传感器） on the g

21、round to sort, pick, feed, and water plants all on their own. Then farmers wont have to work so hard anymore.But, 5G is not perfect. One major disadvantage has to do with why its so fast. 5G uses the millimeter waves, while 4G uses the 15 to 40 centimeter-long waves. And shorter waves go fast but no

22、t very far. On 4G networks, the signal can go 10 kilometers. But the 5G signal can go at most 300 meters, and it cant even go through walls or rain. So, what does that mean? Having such a short signal distance means we need to build a lot of transmitters （信号发射塔） in the future?8. How does the author

23、show us 5Gs advantages in Paragraph 1?A. By giving examples of the uses of 5G.B. By analyzing 5Gs development from 4G.C. By explaining the scientific principles of 5G.D. By making comparisons between 4G and 5G.9. According to the author, the self-driving cars will _.A. cause more car accidentsB. slo

24、w down 5Gs developmentC. run without being connected to the InternetD. have a much faster reaction speed than humans10. What does the underlined part “be staffed by robots” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Be built by robots. B. Have robots as workers.C.Offer employees home robots. D. Produce more medical robo

25、ts.11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. The main weakness of 5G networks.B. How to make 4G networks more perfect.C. The types of long waves and short waves.D. How to improve the signal of mobile phones.DScientists say they have found high levels of small plastic particles （颗粒） in Ar

26、ctic snow. A German-Swiss research team collected snow samples （样本） from the Arctic and other areas. They included northern Germany, the Bavarian and Swiss Alps, and the North Sea island of Heligoland. When the researchers examined the samples in a laboratory, they were surprised to find very high l

27、evels of microplastics.Microplastics are very small pieces of plastic. These plastic particles are generally smaller than 5 millimeters in length. They come from the breakdown of man-made plastic products and industrial waste. The study found the highest levels of microplastics came from the Bavaria

28、n Alps. One snow sample from the area had 154,000 microplastic particles per liter. Samples collected from the Arctic had much lower levels. However, even samples from the Arctic contained up to 14,000 particles per liter.The study also attempted to explore how some of the material could have been c

29、arried in the atmosphere. A limited number of earlier studies did find microplastics in the air of some cities, including Paris, Tehran and Dongguan, China.Bergmann Melanie co-wrote the report on the new study. She believes the new study clearly shows that “the majority of the microplastic in the sn

30、ow comes from the air.” The new study suggests that much of the microplastic found in Europe and the Arctic comes from the atmosphere and snow. While there is growing concern about the effect of microplastics on the environment, scientists are still studying their possible harmful effects on humans

31、and animals. “I hope the new study will lead to more research on this issue. I think microscopic plastic particles should be included in worldwide observations of air pollution levels. We really need to know what effects microplastics have on humans, especially if inhaled with the air that we breathe.” Bergmann said.12. Why did scientists collect samples from so many places in Paragragh 1?A. To make the research convincing. B. To attract people to explore there.C. To measure the length of microplastics. D. To examine the s
