26、If you grew up watching the kid’s television channel Nickelodeon, you will probably understand that there is nothing greater than enjoying its special bright green slime ( 水晶泥). The week of May 11, astronauts (宇航员) aboard the International Space Station(ISS) joined the slime.

Nickelodeon sent two kilos of its green slime into space in the summer of 2019. The Slime in Space project’s idea was to create an educational trip for teachers to use in class. The green slime was also used to guide astronauts through a series of experiments that were designed to learn more about how slime acts in microgravity.

Researchers from Portland State University(PSU) were excited to design the experiments for the project. Mark Weislogel and his partner designed eight shows for NASA astronauts and European Space Agency astronaut aboard to perform.

If you’re wondering what we could hope to learn from sending slime into space, the answer lies in its very name. Slime is slimy. This is because it is a liquid that is thicker than liquids like water. This makes slime act in unexpected ways in the microgravity of the ISS. Improving our understanding of how thicker liquids act in space may help us improve the design of systems that something were designed with Earth’s gravity in mind.

“Interestingly, we consider liquid on Earth as that takes the shape of its container,” Koch tells CNN. “Water just turns into a ball in microgravity, so we’ve had to have a new understanding of different kinds of matter in space. This experiment shows how microgravity   can help us understand things on Earth, especially the things we take for granted.”

【1】In paragraph one, Nickelodeon is mentioned .

A．to introduce the topic

B．to attract the kids

C．to make advertisements

D．to share a TV show

【2】Why are the experiments with slime designed in space ?

A．Because they get students interested in space.

B．Because slime takes the shape of its container.

C．Because slime is popular with kids in the TV show.

D．Because they help us understand how slime acts in space.

【3】What is Koch’s attitude towards the experiment with slime?

A．Puzzled.

B．Worried.

C．Uninterested.

D．Positive.

【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

A．Microgravity makes a difference to matters.

B．Astronauts join the slime in space for science.

C．Kids join the slime so as to become astronauts.

D．Experiments are designed with slimy slime.

28、We live and die by our cell phone, rarely giving it the chance to reboot and refresh. But are you harming the device without knowing it? We asked the experts. For many of us, our smartphones have become a touchstone of life. It affects how we do our jobs, interact with our friends and family, and even how we access important information like our banking, and healthcare. But are you taking proper care of it? Experts say that knowing simple care tips, such as how often to shut it down, can drastically affect how well your phone will continue to perform the older it gets. That means the simple knowledge of when to turn it on and off, can cost you hundreds of dollars in prematurely replacing your phone. But just how often do we need to shut off our smartphones? As opposed to how often you need to shut down your computer, your smartphone has a more hard and fast rule you should live by: once a week, shut it off, let it rest at least one minute, and then you can fire it back up.

There are multiple reasons why you’re supposed to restart your phone at least once a week, and it’s for a good cause: retaining memory, preventing crashes, running more smoothly, and prolonging battery life. Let’s talk first about all the apps you use on a daily basis. “In most cases, the app isn’t really closed but rather, it’s put into a state where it can be restarted faster,” says Bob Motamedi, a Los Angeles-based tech consultant. “Now think about how many apps are open, slowly eating memory and battery power on the phone, and think about all those times you’ve thought that your phone drained entirely too fast that day.” Restarting the phone clears open apps and memory leaks, and gets rid of anything draining your battery.

Here are other things you can do to help prolong your smartphone battery. Crashing happens for various reasons, but not restarting your phone can definitely have an effect here as well, as every update, page loaded, and app installed or deleted will add and remove code in the operating system of the phone. “Sometimes these remnants are incompatible or improperly removed after installation or un-installation,” says Motamedi. “Restarting your phone will eliminate most of these issues and will get your phone working better.”

The good news is that even though failing to restart your phone periodically could zap memory and cause crashes, it won’t directly kill your battery. What could kill your battery is always rushing to recharge. “If you never let your battery drain fully, it will never learn to recharge fully and will shorten the battery’s life,” says Motamedi. “It’s recommended that you let the battery drain down to 0 percent, and then refill it back up to 100 percent.” The same is true for laptops, according to Josh Davis of Abt Electronics in Glenview, Illinois. “After a couple of years of leaving your laptop plugged in all the time, you can expect it not to hold much of a charge at all when you go portable.” In a crunch and need to charge up fast? Check out this trick to charge your phone in just 5 minutes.

To help preserve memory and prevent crashes, consider restarting your smartphone at least once a week. We promise you won’t miss too much in the two minutes it might take to reboot. Meanwhile, you’ll want to stop believing these phone battery and charger myths.

【1】According to the passage, we know that ________.

A．Smartphone is a common thing in our life. It affects our occupations and communication with our friends and relatives, and receives the information of banking, and healthcare.

B．Experts say that knowing simple reserve steps, such as how long to shut it down, can greatly affect how well your phone will work when you buy it.

C．Restarting the phone clears open apps and memory leaks, and gains something draining your battery again.

D．The study showed that failing to restart your phone sometimes could confuse memory and cause crashes, which will directly save your battery.

【2】Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A．There are some reasons why you should restart your phone not less than once a week, and it’s for a good cause: reserve memory, stopping crashes, running more smoothly, and longer battery life.

B．“Sometimes these remnants are complex or properly removed after installation or un-installation,” says Motamedi.

C．What could kill your battery is always frequently to charge again and again.

D．Restarting devices is a recommended way to preserve the battery for both smartphones and laptops.

【3】What is recommended way to use battery of laptop according to the passage?

A．Let the battery use up to 0 percent then recharge it up to 100 percent, which is a good way for laptops.

B．You’re supposed to restart your phone at least once a week.

C．Restarting the phone clears open apps and memory leaks, and gets rid of anything draining your battery.

D．To help preserve memory and prevent crashes, consider restarting your smartphone at least once a week.

【4】What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A．Consider restarting your smartphone at least in the two minutes.

B．To help preserve memory and prevent crashes, you will miss too much in the two minutes.

C．Restarting your smartphone can help stop believing these phone battery and charger myths.

D．Restarting your smartphone can help preserve memory and prevent crashes.

29、More and more consumers across the country are using cashless payment methods. The rapid development of third-party mobile payment tools is helping to encourage cashless payments across the country, said Dong Ximiao, a researcher at the Renmin University of China.

Although there were 3. 4 billion third-party payment accounts（帐户）in total in China in 2016 . China is not the first country to seek a cashless society. Developed states like Sweden , Denmark and Singapore are also seeing that increase.

However, the rapid development of cashless payments does not mean there are no challenges and criticisms. Alibaba's Hema store has come into the spotlight recently. Media reports said that consumers can’t   buy goods with cash there, which would be considered illegal.

Alipay and WeChat Pay, the nation's two major third party mobile payment tools, also launched campaigns this month to encourage more people to use cashless payment methods, which caused concern over whether cash will soon disappear.

“Some offline sellers refuse to accept cash, which influences the natural circulation（流通）of cash," said Dong. He stressed that a cashless society would not mean that cash would completely disappear. Also it’s important to remember that nearly half of China's population live in the countries, unable to enjoy innovation （革新）brought by the Internet, Dong said. And when it comes to China's senior citizens most of them prefer to use cash in their daily lives, he added.

“It's ridiculous（荒谬的）to question digital payment tools' contribution to financial development. In the long term, various payment methods will be used by consumers, and merchants should respect consumers' payment habits. Dong noted.

【1】What does the underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?

A．Economic activity.

B．A large amount of payment.

C．Development of economy.

D．Cashless payment.

【2】Why has Alibaba's Hema store become a focus?

A．It fights against illegal activities.

B．Customers are not permitted to use cash there.

C．It provides comprehensive services.

D．It starts campaigns to encourage mobile payment.

【3】What is Dong Ximiao’s   attitude towards the payment in future?

A．Cashless payment should be limited in the countryside.

B．The innovation from payment is ridiculous in fact.

C．Various payment methods should be encouraged.

D．Digital payment should replace cash completely.

【4】What is the best title of the passage?

A．Innovation on the Internet.

B．Cash or Cashless?

C．Payment online should replace cash.

D．Is the circulation of cash dying?
