Love it or not, flying is necessary if we want to get to a faraway destination. Taking a flight in China can be a boring experience. This is because Chinese airlines didn’t allow smartphones to be powered on during flights. However, the launch of a new Chinese satellite Shijian 13 has changed the situation. Now, many Chinese airlines allow passengers to use their smartphones freely, that is, we can finally catch up on our favorite books and songs while at 30000 feet in the air.

The communication satellite Shijian 13 can transmit (输送) 20 gigabytes (GB千兆) of data per second and cover most parts of China’s land. This makes it the most powerful communication satellite China has ever developed. In fact, Shijian 13 has a higher message capacity (容量) than the total capacity of all China’s communication satellites launched.

The powerful satellite has greatly improved the Internet, including that on fast-moving transportation vehicles such as planes and high-speed trains.

With shijian 13, people are able to get a download speed of up to 150 MBps on their smartphones. According to Zhou Zhicheng, head of the communications satellite department of the China Academy of Space Technology, the speed means it takes less than one minute to download a 1-GB movie. Watching online TV on planes and high-speed trains has come true.

But the satellite’s benefits are far greater that that. China is trying to have 22 communication satellites in the sky by 2025. Shijian 13 will be able to cover wider areas, including mountains, oceans and deserts. When people have emergencies while hiking or sailing, the satellite can help them report and ask for help. It will also help people in natural disasters.

1.What does the first paragraph tell us?

A. Shijian 13 has already enabled us to use smartphones while flying.

B. China Airlines allow passengers aboard to use their smartphones.

C. Shijian 13 is a kind of rocket which can carry us to a faraway place.

D. Shijian 13 can make us catch up with latest books and pop songs.

2.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Shijian 13 B. The Internet

C. A high-speed train D. The powerful satellite

3.Which sentence tells Shijian 13 is the most powerful communication satellite?

A. With it we can download a 1-GB movie within a second.

B. With it we can ask for help when we meet typhoons in sea.

C. With it we can do anything we like on high-speed trains.

D. With it we can prevent natural disasters from happening.

4.What does the story mainly talk about?

A. Why China’s satellite technologies are so advanced.

B. What the experience has been like on high-speed trains.

C. How China develops the new communication satellite.

D. What changes Shijian 13 brings to China sooner or later.

Do you know that in some parts of the world, people build temporary（暂时的）hotels made of snow and blocks（大块）of ice? These are known as ice hotels.

Unlike usual hotels, all the rooms in the ice hotels are made of ice. In some ice hotels, even the glasses for drinks are made of ice blocks. So they only serve cold drinks. Also, hot food is not served in the ice hotels, but guests can eat hot food at places nearby.

To keep warm, guests sleep in comfortable sleeping bags on ice blocks that are covered by mattresses（床垫）and reindeer skins（驯鹿皮）.

There are some places in the ice hotels that are heated, such as the bathrooms. This is because, even though it is not as cold in the ice hotels as it is outdoors（在户外）, indoor temperatures are still very low.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the ice hotels is that they are rebuilt every year. They can be used only during the winter months. The ice hotels melt（融化）away when spring arrives. The ice blocks used to build these hotels are from nearby rivers. So, when the ice hotels melt away, they melt back into the rivers.

1.According to the passage, ice hotels ______.

2.Which of the following about the ice hotels is true?

（丰台一模）阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

If you’re going to travel the world this summer, you should make up a travel budget (预算) before you hit the road. This budget will help you know how much

you need to save before leaving home so that you don’t need to call mom and dad, begging for help halfway through your trip. Here are three tips to help you plan your money for the trip you have planned for this summer vacation.

Pick a location that fits your budget

The countries you choose to visit will have the greatest influence on the necessary size of your travel budget. Road tripping across America or backpacking through Europe, while popular, are two of the more expensive choices for a vacation. In contrast, a visit to Asia or South America will be much less expensive than back home.

“Fun” activities are expensive

It seems to be necessary to plan your travel budget around three major costs…

1.Transportation

2.Hotels

3.Food

Paying for these necessities is part of travel, but you might be surprised to learn that they could add up to less than half of the money you’ll spend abroad. If you’re like me, your “dream vacation” includes more than sitting in your hotel bed.

When I was living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, I owned a small apartment and ate delicious Asian noodles 3 times per day. With the room at $5 per night and meals for $1, I spent about $8 per day.

One of the coolest things to do in Chiang Mai is to go on a zip line adventure. It cost me $60 to get into the trees, which is about what I paid to live for 1 week in

Thailand. If you want to go on an excursion (远足) every day, you’ll easily spend

five times as much on “fun” as you do on necessities. This is true all over the world, so make sure you plan excursions into your travel budget ahead of time.

● Plan for the unexpected

You won’t always be prepared for everything that comes your way while traveling. You need at least $1,000 to help you deal with the unexpected.

First, there’s the good kind of unexpected…

When I was traveling through France on my summer vacation three years ago,

I had no idea that the annual bull running festival (奔牛节) was happening in Spain. A traveler who had just arrived from Spain told me about the festival and because I had some extra money I was able to change my plans and attend!

There’s also the bad kind of unexpected…

When I entered Thailand, I forgot my visa expiration date (签证截止日期). I

ended up overstaying by nearly 1 month! When I crossed the border (边境), I was politely told I needed to pay the Thai government nearly $400!

Giving yourself some extra money is very important to your safety and the enjoyment of your trip.

1.What should you do if you’re going to travel the world?

2.How much did the writer spend getting into the trees in Thailand?

3.What does the writer think of going on an excursion?

4.Why could the writer attend the annual bull running festival?

5.What’s the passage mainly about?

1.We should make up a travel budget before we hit the road. 2.$60. 3.It costs much./Expensive./ You’ll easily spend five times as much on “fun” as you do on necessities. 4.Because he had some...
