26、“Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a low-carbon economy. In terms of energy saving and green economy, China doesn’t lag behind developed nations,” said Zhou Changyi, director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

“While we can learn many aspects from developed nations, they also should learn something from us, such as water conservation,” Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China’s Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair.

He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to fight climate change. The United Kingdom, for example, is concerned about transport, buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions. For China, the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized.

Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product life-cycle assessment, or LCA, which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling.

Tobias Becker, head of ABB’s process automation division for North Asia and China, said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions.

LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product’s environmental impact throughout its life-cycle instead of on its initial investment.

Richard Hausmann, North East Asia CEO of Siemens, said, “The color of future industrialization is green. ”

The Germany company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros ( US 8. 8 billion) for intelligent power networks, Smart Grid, over the next five years. Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business.

A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology, advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy, reduce costs and increase reliability. The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid.

【1】Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “lag behind” in Paragraph 1?

A. act better than   B. perform worse than

C. run faster than   D. keep quieter than

【2】   about Smart Grid isn’t mentioned in the text.

A. Small in size   B. Low-cost

C. Energy-saving   D. Security

【3】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Intelligent Power Networks

B. Low-carbon Economy a Shared Goal

C. Two Biggest Markets for Smart Grid

D. Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn from Each Other

27、Are You Listening to What Your Heart Is Telling You?

Wearable technology is getting a lot of attention these days. These devices are becoming increasingly more integrated into our daily lives and are providing new insights into our personal activity and fitness levels. According to IDC Research, the worldwide wearables market will reach 45.7 million units shipped by the end of 2015 and 126.1 million units in 2019.

To date, the vast majority of that growth has been in basic activity trackers like the Fitbit One and the Jawbone UP that use an accelerometer (加速计) to measure movement and translate those measurements into estimates of step counts, calories burned, distance travelled and other metrics (度量标准). However, these devices won’t tell you how your body responded to that movement. In other words, while an activity tracker can estimate that you’ve taken 10,000 steps in a day, it can’t tell you how hard your body worked to take those 10,000 steps or how your body recovered from that effort. Measurements of both physical activity and the body’s response to physical activity are important components in determining whether you’re actually improving your health and fitness.

This can be explained by what exercise scientists refer to as workload. Workload is defined as the amount of time spent doing an activity or workout multiplied by the intensity of that activity. For example, to burn approximately 400 calories you can work out for an hour at low intensity or work out for 20 minutes at very high intensity. This may seem obvious, but while basic activity trackers can be good at measuring how many steps you’ve taken, they are incapable of telling you how your body actually responded to those steps. The best way to quantify your body’s true response to workload is by continuously and accurately measuring heart rate.

With accurate information about your workloads and level of effort you are on your way to getting much better insight into your health and fitness. For example, with training you will start to see improvements in your cardiac efficiency (心效率). This is why more companies are adding continuous heart rate monitoring to their next-gen wearable products. You can expect to see this trend continue as consumers get more value from the powerful insights that accurate heart rate data can provide.

【1】What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 2?

A. The disadvantages of basic activity trackers.

B. The metrics of future wearable technology.

C. The growth in wearable devices.

D. Important physical activities.

【2】According to the passage, the next-gen wearable products will be better than basic activity trackers in that ___________.

A. they are like the Fitbit One and the Jawbone UP

B. they are good at measuring your physical activity

C. they are likely to have a sensor monitoring heart rate

D. they are able to estimate step counts, calories burned and distance travelled

【3】In which column of the newspaper can this passage most probably be found?

A. Advertisement.   B. Finance.

C. Medicine.   D. Science.

28、Consumer Electronics Show (CES) held once a year in Las Vegas, Neva offers a chance for companies to launch their latest products aimed at making life easier, more productive and fun. Here are some of the amazing inventions that were introduced at CES 2020.

August Wi-Fi Smart Lock

It’s an intelligent door lock to protect your home, and it works on Wi-Fi. The lock doesn’t require any additional equipment to attach to it and can be used with the existing door lock. The owner can access the door from anywhere to lock or unlock and can provide guest keys to family or friends. It keeps statistics and records of your door’s locks, unlocks, and who have visited.

Motion Pillow

People who snore(打鼾) when they sleep might be helped by the “Motion Pillow.” This smart pillow is designed to collect information about the sleeper’s head position and breathing during the night. The system then uses this data to change the shape of the pillow, with the help of built-in air bags. The idea is that by changing the pillow, the sleeper’s head will move just enough to improve airflow through the nose and reduce snoring.

Aō Air

A company called Aō Air introduced a wearable air purifier. The device is designed to be a high-tech face covering to block pollution. The purifier pulls air inside through a filtration(过滤) process and uses fans to create a clean area in front of the device. It’s designed in such a way that it can clean more than 98% of PM2.5 through filtration.

Transparent Hood

The company Continental showed off this invention at CES 2020 that got the Best Vehicle Intelligence and Transportation Award.

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

It was 【1】that students did not write details of how they arrived at their answers or conclusions. I decided to help students write in more detail about what they were thinking when they solved their problems or when they wrote about their ideas.

I chose a common, everyday task that all of us 【2】 in: choosing what to wear. When I asked them how they decided what they wore that day, there was a(n) 【3】 moment of silence. It seemed a 【4】 silly question. A few just said “they wore what they wore.” This was a perfect beginning as it was the same kind of response they were giving as to how they were getting their math answers. I told them how I decided what I wore that day.

First I checked the weather in the paper and by looking outside. I had to decide between wearing a dress or skirt since either one could make a difference in the 【5】 I wish to give. Most of the girls related to this one. I had to be sure what I wanted to wear was clean and ironed. They 【6】 no one ironed clothes any more. I had to check to see if I had shoes that went with the possible outfit. I thought about what I had worn 【7】 as I usually don’t wear the same clothes in the same week. I thought about the color I felt like wearing. I thought about the 【8】 I would be doing that day both at school and after school.

Each new consideration brought out comments from the students. I could expand on each or just mention it and go on, 【9】 on how long I wanted the lesson to go. After this discussion, it was clear to students that their thinking process is richer than they first suspected. It was a good lesson for showing details of the thinking process of which we weren’t 【10】.
