Rather than recycle and reduce our energy，we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.‎ With the idea of going green every single day for a year，Our Green Year started.My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment.We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.‎ Over the course of Our Green Year，we completely changed our lifestyle.We now shop at organic(有机的)stores.We consume less meat，choosing green food.We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need.We have given away half of what we owned through websites.Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice，with no chemical cleaners.We make our own butter，enjoying the smell of homemade fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.‎ Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year.We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others.We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet.‎ ‎24．What might be the best title for the passage?‎ A．Going Green B.

Celebrating Our Green Year ‎25．It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because________．‎ A．they were expected to follow the green fad B．they didn't know how to educate other people C．they were unwilling to reduce their energy D．they needed to perform unusual green tasks ‎26．What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?‎ A．They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.‎ B．They ignored others' ungreen behavior.‎ C．They chose better chemical cleaners.‎ D．They sold their homemade food.‎ ‎27．What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A．The government will give support to the green project.‎ B．The couple may continue their project in the future.‎ C．Some people disagree with the couple's green ideas.‎ D．Our Green Year is becoming a national campaign.‎ C ‎  Are you familiar with the greeting, "Can I add you on WeChat?” It seems like every time we meet new friends or colleagues nowadays, the first thing that comes to mind is adding each other on the app. However, more than 80 percent of WeChat users report feeling stressed or anxious when they receive a large number of messages, according to a study done recently by the app's developer Tencent. In other words, WeChat can overwhelm(使应接不暇) us,while also breaking down the boundaries between our work and private lives.‎ ‎    Just think how easy it is now for bosses to hand out assignments during the holiday, so long as they have your WeChat contact. When you're at the cinema enjoying a romantic movie or having a barbecue in the backyard, you can never cut yourself off from the outside world unless you switch off your phone. Not to post something in WeChat Moments before replying to your boss first! ‎ ‎    Apart from interrupting your leisure time, WeChat can also reduce your productivity at work. For many office workers, logging in to WeChat on their computers at the start of the day has become routine. But what if scanning the Moments distracts us from doing the work? The app steals our time without us even noticing it, making us have the false belief that we are busy all the time.‎ ‎    And as if that weren’t bad enough,there’re the “one-off” friends who take up space on our WeChat friend list. A handy way to check how many one-off friends you have is to take a look at your chat history with them. Sometimes, you only sent the initial friend requests so you could invite them to a WeChat group or inform them of something for your boss. Yet still, as your friend ‎ count(好友数量) ever goes up, it can make you feel the need to share details of your life in your Moments, just so you can stay up to date.‎ ‎    With WeChat , all our spare time is swallowed up by the constant amount of messages and our attention keeps getting distracted by Moments and pop-up ads. So it’s time that we should do something to nip this problem in the bud.‎ ‎28.What is most of WeChat users' reaction when receiving a mass of messages? A.They are quite upset. B.They think it’s unavoidable. C.They break down. D.They complain about Tencent.‎ ‎29.Which of the following may make your boss angry according to Paragraph 2? A.Enjoying a movie at the weekend. B.Posting something in WeChat Moments. C.Having a barbecue on vacation. D.Ignoring the assignment he handed out when seeing it. 30.How can we decide who is the one-off friend on our WeChat friend list? A.By checking if you sent the initial friend request. B.By seeing if your boss asked you to inform him of something. C.By having a look at your chat record. D.By counting the number of your friends on the list. 31.What does this text mainly tell us? A.WeChat is becoming a necessity in our life. B.WeChat friend requests are ruining our life. C. Your boss wants to be your WeChat friend. D. It is better to have more WeChat friends.‎ ‎ D Being able to take advantage of truly unlimited data is a smartphone user’s dream, but everyone I've talked to about 5G is more excited about the usage unlocked by next-generation wireless devices. From smart home security to self-driving cars, all the Internet-connected ‎ equipment in your life will be able to talk to each other at lightning-fast speed with reduced latency(延迟).‎ ‎ “5G is one of those forerunners, along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age,” said Steve Koening, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. “Self-driving vehicles are emblematic in this data age---- they show application of data completely. With one single task, driving, you have large amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It’s pulling in data from other vehicles about conditions down the road. There’s lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the speed and lower latency.”‎ ‎ AR glasses and virtual reality headphones haven’t yet been inside the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully laying that such equipment will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5G, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to improve---or even replace-- smartphones.‎ ‎ Ericsson showed at February’s Mobile World Congress in 2019 how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could rely on outside equipment for processing power.‎ But don’t get too excited. There’s still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including some necessary testing to make sure the radio plays nicely with basic systems and service construction so that 5G isn’t concentrated only in big cities.‎ ‎32.What does the first paragraph focus on?‎ A.The super speed of 5G. B. Potential of 5G. ‎ C. Usage of smart equipment D. The future of smart equipment ‎33.Which word can replace“emblematic”underlined in paragraph 2?‎ A.available B. productive C.symbolic D.popular ‎34.What is tech companies’attitude towards the replacement of smartphones?‎ A.Uncertain B.Optimistic C. Cautious D.Disapproving ‎35.Why does much work still need to be done according to the last paragraph?‎ A.To make radio play nicely B.To construct big 5G cities C.To do 5G trials effectively D.To expand 5G coverage fully.‎ 第二节 （共 5 小题，每小题 3 分，满分 15 分） ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ How to Improve Your Social Life In this world，developing social skills is one of the most important parts of growing up.
