How has technology made your life easier? When you go to a shopping mall, you can enjoy free Wi-Fi there. (A)When you want to take a taxi, you can book one with your phone. In fact, all of these things can be seen as the first building blocks of a smart city.

The idea of a smart city was first suggested by tech company IBM in 2010. Generally, a smart city is a city that uses digital technology, such as 5G networks and the "internet of things", to improve urban planning, save money and resources (資源), and make our lives more convenient. 

Cities like Boston, Amsterdam and Copenhagen are already using smart technology to improve public services. In the US cities of Boston and Baltimore, smart trash bins can sense (感知) how full they are and tell workers when (B)they need to be cleaned. In Amsterdam, traffic is monitored (監(jiān)測) and adjusted according to real-time data gathered from sensors around the city. There are fewer traffic jams. 

Smart cities will allow us to save resources. By using sensors and 5G networks to check the usage of water, gas and electricity, city managers can figure out how to use these resources more efficiently. For example, water and gas pipes (管道) could remind repair workers when there is a leak (泄漏). Air pollution could be more closely monitored, too.

(C)Of course, it will take time to build the smart cities of the future. But since we've already seen successful examples, it won't be long until more cities join in. Tech Republic estimates (估計) that by 2050, about 60 percent of people worldwide will live in smart cities.

It was a cool spring morning back in 2009 and I had just started a morning shift as a school crossing guard. Looking out for the children, I suddenly noticed something at sideways. Behind me I first thought it was a small, overweight dog heading towards me. I didn't think much about it, and looked carefully at any approaching children, as well as enjoying the morning sun.

What is wrong with that dog? I thought later on, as I looked back to check on the small dog—it was moving much too fast for itself.

A few minutes later, I felt as if I was being watched, I looked behind me, but the dog had disappeared. Then, as I slowly turned my attention back to the road, I was greatly surprised to see a large koala at my feet and staring right up at me. A number of different solutions crossed my mind. But staying calm was the best. "Are you waiting to cross the road?" I asked the sweet koala. Miss Koala looked away, and scratched (抓撓) behind her ear.

Then it got up on all four feet and impatiently started to cross the road. I quickly checked for any cars, then walked to the road with my stop sign held high, whistle (吹哨) to my lips, and held my breath.

The koala made it to the other side of the street, then continued following the path through the trees and disappeared into bushes.

So why did the koala cross at the school crossing? To safely get to the trees on the other side!

1.Is the writer a school crossing guard or an animal protection volunteer?

_________________________

2.Where did the writer notice the little animal?

_________________________

3.What did the writer choose among the different solutions?

_________________________

4.Which word showed that koala didn't realize the danger when crossing the road?

_________________________

5.How did the writer help koala cross the road?

_________________________

6.What do you think of the koala cross at the school crossing? Why?

_________________________

With schools closed and restrictions(限制）on public activities, it can be a difficult time for young people, who suddenly can't spend time with their friends and family in person.

However, the situation has already led to some creative ways of using technology to keep in touch with those people, from video calls and group chats （聊天）to online games. Experts say that young people might find the social restrictions on seeing their friends in real life stressful, which is why technology can be helpful.

"Keeping relationships is very important for health," says Dr Amanda Gummer, creator of Dr Gummer's Good Play Guide. She adds that this is more important the older you get. "Not maintaining these friendships can make it more difficult for you to get back into school when the time comes," she says. Chezy Kennedy, from a training program called Confident Kids, agrees. "Staying connected to those we care about is even more important now than ever before," she says. "We can suddenly feel quite lonely. "

Messaging apps and video calls are good for checking in with friends, or organizing group chats to keep in touch. "Video chats are a great way to keep connected with your wider friendship group," says Gummer.

Experts agree that there are plenty of ways to be creative with video chats besides talking to friends. Gummer suggests, “A virtual（虛擬的）film-and-pizza night can work well.”

Sharna Jackson, an expert on young people and technology, has lots of ideas too. She suggests taking turns to teach friends something you're really good at- such as painting and drawing, perhaps. She also thinks that online games, including Fortnite and Minecraft, can play a really good role.

"It's good to play together. It's social, there's problem-solving and turn-taking, and it helps you develop different skills," she says.

1.According to the passage, young people will when they can't stay with friends.

A.be afraid of growing up B.fail to pass the exams

C.experience a hard time D.refuse to go to school

2.The underlined word "maintaining" probably means" ".

A.controlling B.ending C.checking D.keeping

3.The passage mentions the following ways of keeping in touch EXCEPT .

A.talking to friends on the Internet B.playing online games

C.producing online videos together D.teaching friends online

4.What's the best title for the passage?

A.Away from friends B.Together with technology

C.Alone at home D.Back to school
