26、China's lasting research and development efforts have helped the nation keep its pioneering role in developing 5G mobile communication technology, related standards and the licensing stage．
Chinese telecom companies are trying to keep their leading role in the global race for 5G commercialization（商业化）.They are speeding up R&D of the fifth-generation mobile communication technology. The 5G technology is said to be at least 10times faster than 4G services which means it will enable superfast downloads of " heavy " files like movies, self-driving cars and virtual（虚拟的）reality games. It will do large-scale experiments of using 5G in 17cities. Yang Jie, chairman of China Telecom, said. "We aim to begin commercial 5G services in 2020."
China Mobile Communications Corp is planning to use 5G with AI and cloud technology for a latest network, which is planned to be used in the year 2020. The company has played an important role in the finish of the first stage of global 5G standards. The company will push forward the cloud deployment（云部署） of the superfast technology and build an intelligent network.
Similarly, China Unicom said it will start 5G testing this year, commercialize 5G in 2019and finally carry out large-scale commercialization in 2020.
China is expected to have 576 million 5G users by 2025, according to a report published by EY earlier this month. With the global united standard set to be finished in the next year or so, China is likely to advance its plan for the commercial use of 5G connections to 2019, to possibly become one of the first 5G-ready markets in the world, EY forecast.
In the past, China was behind other countries in publishing 4G and 3G licenses. But in 5G, perhaps China will race ahead in R&D. China is struggling to take a leadership role in the global landscape. China is also hungry to join in the decision of 5G international standards, making it one of the major players.

A. The 5G technology in China

27、People are less willing to rely on their knowledge and say they know something when they have access (接近) to the Internet, suggesting that our connection to the web is affecting how we think.
Professor Evan Risko, of the Department of Psychology at the University of Waterloo, led a recent study where the team asked about 100 participants (参与者) a series of general-knowledge questions, such as naming the capital of France. For half of the study, participants had access to the Internet. They had to look up the answer when they responded that they did not know the answer. In the other half of the study, participants did not have access to the Internet.
The team found that the people who had access to the web were about 5 percent more likely to say that they did not know the answer to the question. Furthermore, in some cases, the people with access to the Internet reported feeling as though they knew less compared to the people without access.
“With the popularity of the Internet, we are almost frequently connected to large amounts of information. And when that data is within reach, people seem less likely to rely on their own knowledge,” said Professor Risko.
Studying the results, the researchers thought that access to the Internet might make it less acceptable to say you know something but are incorrect. It is also possible that participants were more likely to say they didn’t know an answer when they had access to the web because online searching offers an opportunity to confirm their answer, and the process of finding out the answer is rewarding.
“Our results suggest that access to the Internet affects the decisions we make about what we know and don’t know,” said Risko. “We hope this research helps us understand how easy access to large amounts of information can influence our thinking and behaviour.”
【1】The study by Professor Risko shows that ________.
A. we are easily cheated by the web
B. the web is making our life harder
C. we are becoming dependent on the web
D. the web helps us make correct decisions
【2】What do we know about the questions asked in the study?
A. They were funny. B. They were simple.
C. They were personal. D. They were difficult.
【3】In the study, the participants with access to the web ________.
A. made more progress B. showed less confidence
C. gave wrong answers D. showed more optimism
【4】What does the word “data” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Goal. B. Dream.
C. Distance. D. Information.
28、Boston Tourist Attractions and Sightseeing
Duck Tours
One of the most popular tours in and around Boston are the legendary Duck Tours, which show you the best that the city has to offer. World War II vehicles take you on a scenic drive around the most famous sites and attractions in the city. With interesting explanation, this novel tour is an enjoyable and fun way to see the city and very much recommended.
New England Aquarium
The aquarium is home to over 7,000 fish and a collection of many different sea creatures. The city’s most visited tourist attraction is complete with exhibit space, gift shop and a cafe with spectacular views of the city and harbor. It also offers whale-watching tours with indoor and outdoor seating — and even seal or walrus (海象) shows.
Boston Public Library
Built in 1848, the Boston Public Library was the first free publicly supported city library in America. With more than 650,000 photographs, 100,000 prints and 250 different papers in the “Newspaper Room” the library now has Internet access, two restaurants and an on-line store with reproductions of its priceless artwork. All exhibits are open to the public and books m only the beginning.
Bull and Finch Pub - Home of Cheers
This world-famous pub is the inspiration for the hugely successful sitcom (情景喜剧) “Cheers”. Although the outside is the same as on television, the inside is completely different. However, although unexpected, this is not a real disappointment as the busy pub is full of reminders of Cheers. The menu serves typical bar food, and is very popular with tourists
If visiting family or staying at one of the luxury Boston hotels downtown, you may want to corner purchasing a “Boston City Pass” as this will enable you to pay half price for most the finest attractions.

29、How to Keep Calm Under Pressure
Exam pressure, job interviews and public speeches can all make you feel rather nervous—your heart’s racing, your voice sounds strange and your mind goes empty. 【1】 Here are three easy and effective tips that can help you keep calm.
First, slow you breathing way down. Take a deep breath through your nose for five seconds, hold it for a second, then push all the air out through your nose, slowly, counting to five. 【2】 By breathing deeply and slowly, you can change the message your brain’s receiving from “danger” to “all is well”.
【3】 Only a single note or a song will do. Studies in how we control heart rate have shown that humming can affect one of the most important parts of the body: the vagus nerve (交感神经), which is like a superhighway of communication, connecting the brain to the heart, lungs and stomach, voice box, ears, and so on. So the next time you feel your heart racing, sing a song or just hum a note.
The final tip is to focus. When you are busy, you wish to do several things at the same time, but if you want to stay calm and actually get things done, don’t. 【4】 When you do two things at once, it has to change between them very rapidly and floods your body with stress hormones (荷尔蒙). So break your task down into small parts or steps, circle the one thing you need to do next and forget about the other tasks until their time comes. 【5】
A．Second, try humming (哼曲子).
B．Why are you so nervous?
C．What can you do to help?
D．It will make things worse.
E．Repeat a few times and you’ll feel calmer.
F．This method is used by sports coaches to help athletes focus.
G．Studies show that your brain can only do one thing at a time.
