Sugar canes, the nation’s main cash crop, continues leading the charge towards a more environmental friendly future.

When I first came to UK from China at 6, I entered the first grade.1.. I saw children throw their left over food into the large trash cans-from half-eaten pizzas to untouched burgers. I watched them pour their milk into a white bucket. In China, this was a huge no-no in school. We had to finish everything.
One day, my first grade teacher announced that we would be having a party and everyone was told to bring something from their country.2.. My mom stayed up after her long day of work and made many dumplings. She put them in the fridge and woke up early in the morning to steam them and fry them so they would taste extra fresh when I brought them to school. They smelled great and looked golden brown after they were cooked.
I was so excited to share these with my class and teachers. It was placed in the corner of the table next to all the other delicious food.3.. One or two kids bravely took a piece and knew what they were because they had it with their parents at a Chinese restaurant. At the end of the party, it was cleanup. My teacher walked up to me and asked, pointing to the dumplings, “Would you like to take these home?” I carefully replied, “No...”4.. I thought she was going to share it with other teachers, but immediately after I said that, she threw all the dumplings into the trash and continued cleaning. I was confused; what just happened?
5.. And today I still witness this frequently in my English friends. Please eat all your food or take it to go or hare it or just get enough so you don’t have to throw it away. Thank you.

Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK’s first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. 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 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.
1.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 consumers in their daily life.
C. 5G helps people communicate better with each other.
D. He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks.
2.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
3.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
4.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.
