China will continue to improve its policies and beef up support to speed up commercial use of the 5G network, an official with the country’s top industry regulator said on Tuesday.
Wen Ku, a spokesman for the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said the ministry will continue to support the development of the super-fast fifth-generation wireless technology by telecom carriers and encourage local authorities to come up with more support policies.
Chen Zhaoxiong, vice-minister of Industry and Technology, said that the development of the 5G network could give rise to massive opportunities in industrial growth and job creation. The ministry will make continuous efforts to promote the use of 1000Mb broadband connections and expand the coverage of fiber-optical broadband services, he said. Meanwhile, the ministry will upgrade telecom networks and operation systems by the end of November to ensure that mobile phone users nationwide can switch service carriers without changing phone numbers, he said. He explained that it could require substantial (大量的) efforts as it involved the upgrading of operation systems of a total of 1.6 billion users in the country.
In the meantime, a “floor-price” will be set for low-income and elderly populations to further promote mobile networks, he said. In order to better protect the rights of consumers, the number of service packages offered by the telecom carriers will be trimmed(削减)by more than 15 percent this year, according to Wen. Carriers are also required to make public all their service packages and make them all available for the users, he added. “We will step up investigations on wrongdoings so that consumers can see their telecom bill plain and clear,” he said.
China has expanded the download speed of mobile broadband sixfold compared with five years ago, while the charges for broadband connections and mobile Internet were down by 90 percent, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
China’s digital economy reached a total volume of 31 trillion yuan ($4.5 trillion), or 34.8 percent of its GDP, in 2018, according to the ministry.

I watched the two of them, both one year old, on the floor, surrounded by candy. He crawled on his hands while she sat there looking at birthday dress. The colourful fishier pinata(彩罐)had just been broken and the candy littered the ground. Both of their kids were too young to realise that they were sitting, and crawling around in a collection of wrapped sugar goodies. They were surrounded with edible(可食用的)goodies but had no clue!
Suddenly I saw the life metaphor(比喻). If we are the “babies” and the candy is “opportunity”, often we don’t recognise it because the opportunity comes wrapped as hard work. We may not give the wrapper the time of day, unless we realise that inside there’s a piece of delicious candy.
Every tree starts as a seed. Every person who becomes well-known was once someone nobody “knew”. So what changed for these people? Did the world suddenly wake up and find they have the potential to succeed? Of course not. These people worked for long periods of time before they saw any payoff.
It can be disheartening when you’re starting out. There’s a huge learning curve for almost everything. Just when you feel like you’re making rapid progress, you realise there’s more to learn. Every new door opens to a brand-new room, with another door at the end.
When I was in recovery from my eating disorder, there were many opportunities that I didn’t recognise as candy. At first, I didn’t see therapy(治疗)leading anywhere. It was only by going to therapy every week for a year that I was finally able to realise the opportunities. I had the opportunities to examine and adjust my thinking, and to challenge the negative mindsets I had about my life.
When I look back, I find that many of the opportunities that allowed positive growth didn’t always appear easy or fun. They often appeared as something that looked like hard work. But when we focus, consistently show up, and put in hard work, it will result in candy.
1.Why do many people miss their opportunities according to the author?
A.Their hard work fails to pay off.
B.They don’t work hard consistently.
C.They haven’t realised their potential.
D.They don’t value their opportunities.
2.What does the author think of the learning process according to Paragraph 4?
A.It is often interesting for most people.
B.It is often long and hard for most people.
C.You can speed it up with the help of others.
D.You can predict your progress from its start.
3.How did the author’s eating disorder affect emotionally?
A.She lacked hope for her life sometimes.
B.She was unwilling to do therapy at first.
C.She refused to change her eating habits.
D.She liked eating candy very much.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Power of Positive Thinking
B.Candy and Achievements
C.Hard Work Leads to Success
D.Opportunities Come Candy-wrapped
