Slowly but surely, we're moving closer and closer to 5G world. From smart-home security to self-

driving cars, all the internet-connected devices in our life will be able to talk to each other at

lightning-fast speeds with reduced delay. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G download speeds in

the US top out at an average of 19.42Mbps. But by comparison 5G promises gigabit (千兆) speeds.

“5G is one of those heralds (使者), along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age,”said

Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association.“The

self-driving vehicle is a great emblem of this data age, and that is to say, it is a sign of time, because

with one single task, driving, you have massive amounts of coming from the vehicle itself, and a

variety of sensors are collecting a lot of information to model its environments as it moves. It's

pulling in date from other vehicles about road conditions down the lane. It could be weather

information, and also connected infrastructure (基础设施) constructors. There's lots of data behind

that task, which is why we need the high speed.

And virtual reality glasses and headsets haven't yet broken the mainstream, but tech companies are

joyfully betting that these devices 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 assist --- or even replace --- smartphones.

Ericsson stated at February's Mobile World Congress 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 hardware for processing power.

But don't get too excited. There's still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including various

trials to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction so 5G isn't

concentrated only in big cities.

8. What is the first paragraph mainly about?

A. A right security of 5G. B. The super speed of 5G.

C. A potential dream of 5G. D. The present world of 5G.

9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word“emblem”in paragraph 2?

A. exhibition B. explanation C. sponsor D. symbol

10. What do some tech companies expect of virtual reality glasses?

A. They will be heavier than present ones.

B. They will process power on their own

C. They will serve people instead of smartphones.

D. They will bring a big fortune to teach companies.

11. What will the author tell us in the next paragraph?

A. How to fully expand 5G coverage.

B. How to effectively reduce 5G trials.

C. How to nicely operate 5G hardware.

D. How to widely construct 5G big cities.

A robot created by Washington State University (WSU) scientists could help elderly people with

dementia and other limitations live in dependently in their own homes.

The Robot Activity Support System, or RAS, uses sensors (传感器) equipped in a WSU smart

home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with

daily activities. It navigates (定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own,

provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owners to objects like
