Not all of them will rise to the level of the advertisement, but it’s an abundant crop.‎ ‎“Home After Dark” by David Small( Liveright, Sept.11)‎ In 2017, Small published a celebrated graphic memoir(回忆录) called “Stitches”. Now the Caldecott Medal winner is back with a graphic novel about a motherless 13-year-old boy brought up in an unhappy home in California. This is a tale told in few words and many striking images. On Sept. 11 at 3p.m, Small will be at Amazonbooks at Union Market. More information at www. amazon. com/graph-tale.‎ ‎“Waiting for Eden” by Elliot Ackerman(Knopf, Sept.25)‎ This brief novel is related by a dead soldier who is watching over a horribly burned partner in a Texas hospital. That sounds embarrassingly emotional, but Ackerman, who served in a Navy in lraq and Afghanistan, is one of the best soldier-writers of his generation. More information at www. amazon. com/military-essay.‎ ‎“All You Can Ever Know” by Nicole Chung(Catapult, Oct.2)‎ Chung, the editor of the literary magazine Catapult, was adopted as a baby by a white family in Oregon. In this memoir, she writes about her childhood, her Asian American identity and her search for the Korean parents who gave her up. More information at www. amazon. com/politics-prose.‎ ‎“Unsheltered” by Barbara Kingsolver(Harper, Oct. 16)‎ Alternating between past and present, this novel tells the story of a woman investigating a late-19th-century science teacher who was caught up in the controversy over Darwinism. Like her other novels, this one promises to explore social and scientific problems. Visit www. amazon. com/tech-science for more information.‎ ‎21．If you hope for a signature of the author, you will probably buy a copy of ________.‎ A．All You Can Ever Know B．Waiting for Eden C．Home After Dark D．Unsheltered ‎22．Who joined the army and was sent to the Middle East?‎ A．Elliot Ackerman. B．David Small.‎ C．Barbara Kingsolver. D．Nicole Chung.‎ ‎23．If you want to read a book about seeking roots, you can surf ________.‎ A．www. amazon. com/graph-tale B．www. amazon. com/politics-prose C．www. amazon. com/military-essay D．www. amazon. com/tech-science ‎24．Which of the statements is true about “Unsheltered”?‎ A．It interprets the past and present of Darwinism.‎ B．It is set in the late nineteenth century only.‎ C．It is contradictory to the author’s other novels in themes.‎ D．The science teacher in it was involved in the argument about Darwinism.‎ ‎25．In which section of the newspaper can we read this passage?‎ A．Social issues. B．Literature C．Recreation D．Education B A MENTORING(导师制) program is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youths.‎ Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults aged 11to 21.‎ Alex Goldberg, the program’s founder, said: We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook.‎ ‎“We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youths. For example, we’ve secured internships(实习) with world-famous firms such as Honda.‎ ‎“At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring, it is extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youths with their school work and grades and to give them opportunities which may help shape their futures.” Kieran Hepburn, 14, is one of a group of Banbury youths who has benefited from the program so far. In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Young Inspirations staff to Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s(UNESCO) International Youth Forum(论坛).‎ The event was held for young people from around the world, to seek their views on how the future of youth and education should look. Kieran joined several hundred observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the event. Kieran thinks the trip was a life changing experience. “Before we left I didn’t quite know what to make of it but when we got there we didn’t stop, it was amazing,” he said, “We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then did something cultural each afternoon.”‎ The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life. It dealt with issues such as drug abuse, violence and unemployment.‎ Kieran said: “It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was voted most improved pupil at school in August.”‎ The Young Inspirations mentoring sessions take place each Friday in Banbury.

It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?‎ One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost ￡1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK’s first hologram(全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn’t all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster Internet access, with Ofcom(英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second.‎ The wider application is to support connected equipment on the “Internet of things” –not just the Internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones(无人机) to communicate with each other.‎ Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor’s (皇帝的)new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.‎ Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5G phone well before 5G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.‎ ‎31．Why does Prof William Webb say “the technology could be a case of the emperor’s new clothes”?‎ A．He is in favor of the application of the new technology.‎ B．5G will bring a cost to comsumers in their daily life.‎ C．5G helps people communicate better with each other.‎ D．He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.‎ ‎32．The underlined word “addressing” in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to ________.‎ A．making a speech to B．trying to solve C．managing to decrease D．responding to ‎33．The last paragraph indicates that ________.‎ A．it’ll take several years to make 5G accessible to the public in the UK B．5G service shows huge development potential and a broad market C．customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G ones D．it’s probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain ‎34．What do we know about the text?‎ A．Vodafone is successful in spreading the 5G service.‎ B．Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by 4G.‎ C．The application of 5G will make life much easier.‎ D．5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK.‎ ‎35．What’s Prof William’s attitude towards 5G service, the new generation of mobile technology?‎ A．Favorable. B．Negative.‎ C．Indifferent. D．Objective.‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。‎ You only have 90 seconds, so the important point here is the “first impression”. Below is a list of quick and easy steps which will get people to like you.‎ ‎ Eye contact and body language.‎ ‎ This is important to show that you are polite and respectful.
