【题目】As the population ________, the world seems to be smaller.

A.increases moreB.increase largerC.grows largerD.grows more

【答案】C

【解析】

句意:随着人口的增多, 世界似乎在逐渐变小。

考查动词辨析。作为不及物动词,increasegrow都有“增加,增大,增长”的意思, grow一般指经过逐渐的历程,population 作为一个抽象名词,用来指一地(国家、都会、城镇)的人口,后面用 increase grow 都可以的。population指人口的数量,需用“大(big/large…)或小(small)”修饰,不可使用“多(much)或少(little)”修饰;可知排除ADthe population是抽象名词,第三人称单数,可知谓语动词使用三单形式,increase是原形,grows是三单形式,故选C

As the global pandemic(流行病) speeds up, many are wondering about the effectiveness of masks and when it’s proper to wear them. Most people from the East believe that wearing a mask is important to control the spread of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP新冠肺炎). But people in the West generally would argue that, unless one is already ill, wearing a mask is unnecessary.

In Eastern countries like China, mask-wearing has a long history in their cultures. In fact, people in the East wear masks not just to protect themselves from illness but also for a variety of other reasons.

In many Asian countries, masks are worn in many situations in daily life, such as doing housework or visiting patients in the hospital. They can give people the comfort of being protected.

In recent years, they are worn simply for beauty. Young people in Japan, for example, wear masks as a fashion statement, expressing their personal style through unique designs and patterns.

In Asia, wearing a face mask is also an expression of group-oriented values(集体主义).

Wearing a mask, one becomes part of a giant group. “People communicated their responsibilities to the social group of which they were members,” wrote Peter Baehr, a research professor in social theory at Lingnan University, Hong Kong.

In Western countries, however, individual values are the most important.

As a citizen, it is one’s duty to prevent the spread of illness in following ways, such as washing one’s hands and limiting one’s contact with others. A face mask is kept only for those showing symptoms(症状) of illness.

Whether from the East or the West, social culture has played an important role in one’s decision about whether or not to wear a mask. That’s because human beings are social creatures who consider much about what other members of society think of us. The most important thing is to respect others’ opinions, no matter how different they are.

2What can masks give people in many Asian countries?

3Why do young people in Japan wear masks?

4Who is a face mask kept only for in Western countries?

5If you are a citizen in Western countries, how can you prevent the spread of illness?

【题目】 Would you like to live in a city where buildings turn the lights off for you, and self-driving cars will find the nearest parking space themselves? Although it might sound a little far from you, living in a “smart” city like this could happen sooner than you think.

Great changes have taken place in towns that we have lived in for centuries, while completely new cities are being built. One such place is the city of Songdo. Every home there will have a “telepresence”system(远程遥控系统)--- allowing users to control the heating and looks, take part in video meetings, and receive education, healthcare and government services. Around the city, escalators(自动扶梯) will only move when someone is on them, and offices and schools will all be connected to the system.

The great mind behind Songdo is from the company Cisco. In fact, technology companies round the world such as IBM, Siemens and Microsoft are already in the business.

About 75% of the world’s population will live in cities by 2050, so cities will need to be more modern to deal with the coming problems. “Making cities smarter is one way out, and I think this will in turn make cities greener.” Said Dan Hill, head of a research company.

【题目】 Competition is good for businesses. In the world of positioning systems, however, competition is also a must. 1 Now, China is building its own positioning system. It’s called Beidou.

China is only the third country in the world to own a positioning system. Only the United States and Russia have already developed their GPS or Glonass.

2With it, the country no longer has to rely on foreign systems. It also shows the world that China has made much technological progress.

Work on the Beidou project began in 1994. However, the first two Beidou satellites were not sent into space until 2000. 3These satellites have formed a global network. They began operations at the end of 2018. To further improve the system, China will send ten more Beidou satellites into space. It plans to complete the system before 2020.

4It will provide a positioning accuracy of within ten centimeters for the Chinese military. The United States’ GPS only has an accuracy of around 30 centimeters.

The Beidou system offers services to ordinary users, too. In big cities like Shanghai, thousands of buses have been using the Beidou system. 5

Moreover, most smartphones today can already receive Beidou signals. A phone salesperson in Beijing jokes, “Many people are used to saying, ‘I am using GPS.’ In fact, however, their phones have been using Beidou.”

根据短文内容,从方框中选出五个句子填入文中空缺处,使短文内容通顺完整。

A.Since then, China has launched dozens of Beidou satellites.

B.It is not wise for a country to rely on foreign systems for positioning.

C.People waiting for a bus can easily find out when it will come.

D.The American GPS, Russia’s Glonass have dozens of satellites to provide information across the globe.

E.The completed system will be more powerful than any existing foreign systems.

F.Beidou improves China’s national safety.
