On April 23.2019，a series of events to celebrate

the （1） 　　anniversary of the Chinese People's Liberation Army（PLA）Nay（中国人民海军）was held in Qingdao．

Destroyers（驱逐舰） sailed in the sea， submarines（潜艇） slid under the surface and fighter jets flew across the sky． It wasn't a scene from a war movie， indeed， it was a real grand naval parade．

As a large country （2） 　　more than 18，000 kilometers of coastline， China needs a strong navy． This was a hard lesson（3） 　　by history． According to Xinhua， from the 1850s until 1949．foreign forces used the sea to make about 470 invasions of China． Therefore， the PLA Navy has become a key line of the nation's defense．

As President Xi Jinping said， the oceans are of great significance as they sustain life and connect the world． "The blue planet that humans inhabit is not divided into islands by the oceans．（4） 　　is connected by the oceans to form a community with a shared future， where people of all countries share weal and woe，"said Xi during his （5） 　　at the event．

In the new sci﹣fi film． The Wandering Earth《流浪地球》， humans save the Earth without leaving it． In many﹣even most﹣ space﹣themed films， whenever Earth faces a disaster（灾难），the（1） 　　is always running away from the planet in spaceships．

But the latest Chinese sci﹣fi movie， The Wandering Earth ，offers a different and more ambitious idea． In the film，based on a short story by Chinese sci﹣fi writer Liu Cixin，Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun． In reply， humans around the world work （2） 　　to build a huge engine system that will push Earth away from the dying sun．（3） 　 　 giving up Earth﹣again﹣ this time we're taking it with us．

This"ambition"didn't come from nowhere， For thousands of years，"homeland" has had a soft point in （4） 　　of Chinese people． One old idiom is "luoyeguigen"， which means returning to one's homeland at the old age， like （5） 　　leaves return to the roots of their trees． Or there is an ancient poem， "The season called the White Dew begins tonight： Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright"． These（6） 　　show the tight link that Chinese people have had with their homeland．

This special cultural background is probably the key （7） 　　separates The Wandering Earth from Hollywood﹣style space films． "What is Chinese sci﹣fi？"Guo Fan， the film's director． said in an interview． "A movie that can really （8） 　　 our cultural and spiritual view can be called Chinese sci﹣fi． Or， we're just copying others and telling the same American stories．"

And the makers of The Wandering Earth may have chosen the best time to tell its Chinese sci﹣fi story．The film was released on Feb 5 ^th， the first day of Chinese New Year． It was a time when many people had just made the （9） 　　journey back to their hometowns．So to them， there is only one possible way to tell the story． Earth（10） 　　wherever humans go， because it's our home forever．

Shanghai University of Engineering Science has become the first university in China to be covered by a 5G network，the university announced on Tuesday．

Chinese mobile carriers（运营商） are expected to spend 1.2 trillion yuan（US＄176.5 billion） on 5G by 2025，50 percent more than their total 4G investment （投资）， Nomura said yesterday． Carriers including China Mobile，China Telecom and China Unicom， are expected to build over 4.9 million 5G base stations by 2025．

5G is a"game﹣changing" opportunity for carriers as they can explore new business like smart manufacturing， super high definition video and smart driving， instead of just being a "pipeline" for voice and data services．

China will supply "temporary "5G licenses in several aimed cities this year． Consumers（消费者） will be able to use the first batch of 5G smart﹣phones and tablet computers in the second half．It's the first time that China's top industry regulator clarified the 5G industry timeline， especially the first appearance of 5G phones．

But 5G services will become accessibleto normal consumers later than expected． More work needs to be done to make the 5G industry fully developed， which won't happen until 2020， said UBS recently． New business projects and organizations， rather than normal consumers， will enjoy 5G services at first． The first batch of 5G services will be available to consumers in about 10 cities only．

（1）How much did Chinese mobile carriers spend on 4G？ 　　

（2）What does the underlined word"accessible" probably mean in Chinese？ 　　

（3）Which part of a newspaper may the article come from？ 　　

（4）What's the main idea of the article？ 　　

Thanks to the hybrid rice that was discovered by Yuan Longping， the hunger problem of thousands of Chinese people was mostly fixed in the 1980s．

On Sept 8 ^th，Yuan， together with two other scientists，won China's 2018 Future Science Prize， for his continuous research on rice． Even on his 88th birthday on Sept 7 ^th，he took part in the International Development Forum of Rice Production in Hunan province． Although he was recovering from an illness at the time， he was happy to talk to reporters about his latest work on seawater rice．

Yuan has been researching on rice since he was at college． In 1964． he discovered a natural hybrid rice plant in Hainan． Since then， he has focused on developing high﹣yield， hybrid rice varieties

（多样性）．In 1973． he became the first to successfully cultivate（培育） a type of hybrid rice species in

the world．With the hard work of Yuan's group for about ten years， the production of the rice was increased．（From 150 kg per mu （亩） to 500 kg per mu and more． ）These varieties now take up about two thirds of China's rice crop， according to China News． So， it's no wonder that he's known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice"．

And because of China's Belt and Road （一带一路）initiative． Yuan's hybrid rice is helping to solve food problems around the world． Indeed， according to Xinhua News Agency， hybrid rice plants in Kenya produce four to five times more rice than the country's usual nice plants．

With a rising fame all over the world， Yuan gave a speech in English at the 9th Shandong High﹣Level Talents Forum in Qingdao last year． His speech made him an internet sensation．Beginning with"I speak broken English"， his 20﹣minute speech turned out to be a huge success，with barely any pauses or mistakes． The humble Yuan was simply being modest during his speech．According to an article in 1999 by CNN， the scientist speaks both English and Russian fluently． "I never need an interpreter when I go overseas，" he told the US news network．

But in spite of his great knowledge， Yuan understands that even the wisest people should still be open to learn new things． "The farmers of our country possess rich experience in planting rice，"he told Xinhua．" We should learn from them．"

（1）Where was the International Development Forum of Rice Production held？ 　　

（2）Which is the main reason that Yuan Longping is known as the "Father of Hybrid Rice"？ 　

（3）Yuan Longping can speak the following languages EXCEPT 　　？

（4）The passage is mainly about 　　．

Many environmental groups are warning that oceans of the world are in great danger． In the past 50 years，the number of water with zero oxygen（氧气） in the open ocean has increased more than four times． In the near coast water bodies， including the river mouth and seas， low﹣oxygen areas have increased more than 10 times since 1950．Scientists discover that oxygen continues dropping ever outside these zones as the Earth warms． To stop the drop，the world needs to control in both climate change and nutrient（养分） pollution．

Oxygen is a must to life in the oceans． The drop in ocean oxygen is among the most serious effects of human activities on the Earth's environment．

This is the first time for the scientists to take such a deep look at the causes， results and solutions to low oxygen worldwide， in both the open ocean and the near coast waters．About half of the oxygen on Earth comes from the ocean． However， mixed effects of nutrient loading and climate change are greatly increasing the number and size of "dead zones" in the open ocean and the near coast waters， where oxygen is too low to support most sea life．

In the areas traditionally called"dead zones"． like those in Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico， oxygen drops to levels so low that many animals have trouble in breathing and die．As fishes run away from these zones， their living areas become smaller and smaller． But the problem goes far beyond "dead zones"． Even smaller oxygen drops can hold up the growth in animals and lead to disease or even death． Low oxygen also can cause the release of dangerous chemicals．Although a few animals can grow well in dead zones， overall biodiversity（多样性）falls．

（1）How to stop the drop of ocean oxygen in the article？ 　　

（2）Why are these waters called"dead zones" from the article？ 　　

（3）Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article？ 　　

Do you have a tail？ Of course not， we know． But tails are like opinions． actually， everyone has them： fishes， birds， most reptiles， and even some of our closest relatives．

Since tails first evolved（进化） at least 500 million years ago． Geckos （壁虎）use them to store fat， birds use them to steer through the air． But for most mammals （哺乳动物），（1） 　　Yet， as you get closer to humans on the evolutionary tree， tails disappear， Gorillas（大猩猩）don' t have them， and neither do chimps（黑猩猩） or any other apes （类人猿）， including us， of course． To understand why， take a look at how we walk．

（2） 　　walking like this gives us a huge advantage because unlike four﹣legged animals，which have to pour energy into every step they take， two legs take advantage of gravity（重力），which does some of the work for us． You see， each time we take a step， gravity pulls us forward．The end result is that when we walk， we use around 25% less energy than walking on all fours， and this way of getting around also totally eliminates（淘汰） the need for a tail．

It's said that you can still see a reminder of a time when our ancient ancestors had one． Just look at a human spine（脊椎）．（3） 　　That's your tailbone． It's all that's the rest of our tail．

Now， babies are born with what looks like a tail， but that's not what's really going on． Most often， these tails are actually a parasitic twin（寄生物）． These types of tails usually form as a birth defect（瑕疵）．（4） 　　

So the tail of humans has gone， it's the result of evolution millions of years Will humans be much taller， stronger or smarter in the future？
