24、   There's much to see under the sea , but you need to remember that light behaves differently in water than in air . The objects appear closer to you than they exactly are . You might find yourself reaching out to touch something and completely missing it.

Objects under water will appear larger than they would on surface , too . Be careful not to tell any stories about the big fish that got away. That fish might not be so big after all ! It's just because sometimes things can seem to be as much as about 33 percent bigger in water!

What's more , in deeper water , colors just don't seem as bright . In fact , it looks as if some colors are missing . Remember the color of an object results from the wavelengths of light that are reflected from its surface . And light is taken in as it moves down through the water.

Swimmers wear wet suits to keep warm underwater  . Let's take a bright red,yellow , and blue wet suit as an example . These colors are hard to miss on the surface of water.Watch carefully the changes in color as you descend in the water . The red part now looks almost black because the red light wavelengths , the longest among these three colors , are missing . As you go down deeper, the same thing will happen to the yellow part and in the end to the blue part . Even at a place about 6 to 9 meters underwater , you will look terrible, like a ghost! And you have to wait for your return to the surface to enjoy the bright colors again !

25、   Your Internet experience is ruined when the net speed is too slow—it takes so long to open a web page and the show you're watching stops every few minutes.

But it could be a thing of the past. Major telecom carriers will start to provide 5G services in China.

What is 5G?

The "G" in “5G" refers to the generations of mobile network technologies. 1G let us talk to each other, 2G let us send messages; 3G gave us mobile data and the Internet, and 4G made all of these things faster.

Now 5G promises much faster speeds, and more stable connections. This means that you will be able to download an entire HD movie in seconds and only experience a short delay between sending and receiving data.

What changes will 5G bring us?

According to the Straits Times, SC will be able to improve many advanced technologies. With a 5G network, the short delay in information exchange will allow driverless cars to run more safely, as they will be able to communicate in real time and avoid probable dangers. Meanwhile, 5G-enabled wearable products will keep doctors in touch with their patients and warn them immediately if there's something wrong. Besides, VR games will become more popular with 5C. The short delay of SG will make the games feel even more real.

Does 5G have any disadvantages?

5G is not perfect. For one thing, 5G will not "travel" far. On 4G networks, you can be 10 kilometers away from the nearest stable transmission base. But 5G will only cover about 300 meters, meaning that we will need more transmitters 80 that we can get signals.

And in order to use 5G. we will have to buy new products specifically designed for 5G that are now expensive.

根据材料内容选择最佳答案

【1】What does the underlined word"ruined" in Paragraph 1 mean in Chinese?

A.丰富 B.破坏 C.期待 D.提高

【2】What can't we do with 5G?

A.Experience more stable network connections. B.Drive safely.

C.Make VR games more popular. D.Download a HD movie in seconds.

【3】What can we infer from the passage?

A.Fewer transmission bases will be needed in the near future.

B.Many advanced technologies will change because of 5C.

C.New products designed for 5G will be cheaper in the future.

D.There will be no delay in information exchange with 5C.

【4】How far can you be away from the nearest transmission base if you have a 5G mobile phone?

A.About 10 meters. B.About 10 kilometers.

C.About 300 meters. D.About 300 kilometers.

【5】Where is the text probably taken from?

A.A school report. B.A science magazine.

26、Fairy tale(童话) fiction or not?

One hot debate topic from I Can I Bibi (《奇葩说》) has become popular on Weibo: Should parents tell their children that fairy tales are fake(假的)? Some people think we shouldn’t. Fairy tales give kids hope and teach life lessons. But others think that children need the ability to distinguish (区分) real from fake, and this role is best played by their parents. What’s your opinion?

YES 

Hu Enqi, 16

There is no doubt that the world of fairy tales is beautiful, but the real world is cruel (残酷的). If children are always deep in fairy tales, they might not adjust(调节) themselves to society. That’s why there are so many “giant babies” in society. It is parents’ duty to tell children that beauty and darkness are coexistent(共存的). They need to be stronger to adapt to (适应) society.

Li Ziyi, 16

It’s important to tell kids the wisdom in fairy tales, not whether or not they’re fake. If I’m a parent, I will tell my kids: “Dear, the Queen’s poisoned apple is fake, but in our daily lives, fake apples may be many other seductions (诱惑) that you need to be careful of.” Fairy tales can never solve all problems. After all, dangers are always present in both fairy tales and reality (现实). 

NO 

Yuan Siyi, 16

Not every fairy tale is fake — they’re from our lives. The essence (本质) of fairy tales is to teach children the most basic truths based on the real world. The content of fairy tales is not meaningless. Parents could look on them as partners to children when they grow up. Children will understand the truth step by step.

Hu Pei, 16

As a kid bathed in fairy tales, I don’t want to be told that they are fake. Fairy tales get kids to read, help shape their world outlook, encourage their imaginations and give them entertainment. Even if parents tell the kids the cruel reality, they may miss the point. Instead, they may be filled with fear of the future and the world, which is not our purpose.

【1】According to the passage, “the giant babies” are ___________.

A．those babies who can’t grow up

B．those babies who are big in shape

C．those adults who can adapt to society well

D．those adults who can’t distinguish real from fake

【2】According to Li Ziyi, ___________.

A．we shouldn’t tell children fairy tales are fake

B．some fairy tales have wisdom while others don’t

C．there are many dangers in different shapes in reality

D．“poisoned apples” needn’t be afraid of because they are fake

【3】From the passage, we can know _________.

A．in fairy tales everything is beautiful and good

B．fairy tales can give kids hope and teach life lessons

C．fairy tales have nothing to do with the real world

D．fairy tales mainly need to tell kids cruelty of reality

28、Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar holiday, falling on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.

People at that time threw bamboo leaves f【6】 with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the rice instead of the h【7】 Qu Yuan. This later on t【8】 into the custom of eating rice dumplings（粽子）.

The celebration is a time for protecting people from evil and disease for the rest of the year. It is done by different practices such as h【9】 healthy herbs on the front door, having nourishment（营养品）, and showing portraits（画像）of evil’s nemesis（邪恶的惩治者）, Zhong Kui. If one manages to stand an egg on its end at e【10】 12:00 noon, the following year will be a lucky one.
