The Internet of Things (IoT) aims to get everything and everyone talking. Attaching sensors to “things”, such as cows, cars and refrigerator, and then assigning them unique IP addresses allow them to “talk” to the Internet. Of course, the IoT will involve much more than a handful of sensors. Networking company Cisco estimates that 50 billion Internet-connected devices and objects will

be sending over data by 2020.

Specific Benefits

The IoT will allow people to track things and processes like never before. Airplane manufacturers will be able to continuously track the condition of airplane parts, allowing them to do preventive maintenance and avoid costly downtime. Consumers could install smart meters in their homes to monitor energy usage and observe energy price changes in real time. That would allow people to adjust their habits and use electrical appliances during lower-priced hours.

Some Fears

Some critics fear that the IoT could end up being a fashion that people lose interest in over time. Having Twitter feeds on refrigerator doors may sound cool at first, but the attraction could fade as quickly as the excitement over last year’s smartphone! Other critics are doubtful that companies making Internet-connected appliances will provide long-term software updates. If that happens, a refrigerator or washing machine that should last 10 years or more could last two or three due to software that’s outdated.

A Positive Example

Early this year, owners of the Tesla Model S electric car received a recall notice alerting them to a charger plug needing to be fixed. Amazingly, owners of the Model S sat back while the company performed an “over the air” wireless update. Customers confirmed the update by tapping on the car’s touchscreen console to see that the Model S was running the latest software version. No trip to the dealer was required!

Perhaps Tesla’s remote fix is a sign of things to come. Someday soon, people’s lives might become a lot more efficient and convenient thanks to the IoT.

1.How do researchers get everything and everyone talking?

A. By establishing the IoT and launching a handful of sensors.

B. By connecting sensors with them and appointing them unique IP addresses.

C. By communicating with them all the time through the IoT.

D. By sending people to track them day and night and collect useful data.

2.According to the article, which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A. IoT can help people do preventive maintenance and save money.

B. IoT can help people monitor energy usage and observe price changes timely.

C. IoT can help people adjust their habits and use electrical appliances more smartly.

D. IoT can help people investigate things and update a lot of important data.

3.What else do critics worry about the IoT besides its probably ending up being a fashion?

A. People will lose interest in it as quickly as the thrill over last year’s smartphone.

B. Refrigerators and washing machines will be replaced by other devices in a few years.

C. Whether related companies will provide long-term software updates or not.

D. The software provided by companies will be outdated easily and quickly.

4.According to the passage, when owners of the Tesla Model S electric received a recall notice, they ______.

A. just waited in the car while the maintenance is being done through wireless update

B. were required to go to the nearest 4s store to make some adjustments or repairs

C. could definitely depend on the IoT to send them the charger plug to be fixed

D. had to confirm the update with the help of the equipment provided by the company

需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、E、F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有多余选项。

A.How to deal with listening practice

B.Class atmosphere matters a lot in learning

C.Monitoring activities is one of the main tasks of teachers

D.How to evaluate student performance

E.Group work needs organizing properly

F.Communication skills play a big role in language learning

Both instructors and learners can get benefits from the following learning strategies as long as they are properly made use of in language learning.

1. .

The information presented in this section focuses on specific conversation, discussion, or presentation skills.The activities arc generally self-explanatory, with students expressing opinions, making decisions, solving problems, planning presentations, and so on.Engaged in these activities, students have the possibility of communicating with each other in class.This section also includes lists of expressions used to illustrate different language functions, such as agreeing, disagreeing, and asking for clarity in order to help students expand their knowledge of English.

2. .

In a speaking or listening course, students' anxieties can affect their learning.For this reason, it is important to establish a friendly, relaxed classroom environment.It may help students think of the classroom as a laboratory where they can experiment and take risks with the language.In such circumstances, students should realize that errors are a natural and expected part of learning a language.In addition, one of the goals of this pan is to encourage students to examine their own opinions and values while at the same time showing respect for the opinions and values of others.

3.________.

Many of the activities in this section involve the students' cooperating work in class. Generally, such an activity taken up by four members seem to work the best. Groups of three or five members may also be effective, depending on the activity. The first unit includes guidelines for organizing group work, with students taking on the following roles: leader, reader, summarizer, reporter, and observer (if necessary). Organizing all activities in this way makes the course truly learner-centered since students must take full responsibility for carrying out each activity. As for seating, group members should arrange their seats or chairs in a small circle to encourage interaction.

4.________.

Being a teacher, in the course of group activities, you should circulate from group to group, which helps ensure that students are on task and are using English. While you should not participate in pair or group activities, you need to stay involved in what the students are doing. One important reason to circulate during activities is to keep track of the kinds of problems students have, such as grammatical accuracy, fluency, word choice, pronunciation and intonation discussion strategies, etc. However, it is generally not effective to correct students' errors when they are involved in an activity The most practical way to deal with communication problems is to make notes of what you observe as you are circulating. You can then use this information to provide feedback after the activity or to develop future lessons.

5.________.

At the beginning of the course, when they need to build up their confidence, students benefit most from encouragement and positive comment. If possible, you'd rather not grade the students just few efforts at speaking in a group or to the class. Many students suffer such anxiety in speaking situations that any criticism at this stage can have the opposite effects. Commenting on students' work does not necessarily mean grading them on the scene. Even if the programs require formal grades, you should try to put off assigning grades until later in the term.
