China started late in network technologies and has lagged behind for years. With the rapid development of wireless technologies, the concept of the Fifth Generation (5G) mobile communication system started to emerge(出现). Although the development of 5G network technology in the international community is still in the research stage
, a number of foreign countries and organizations are working on it. In order to catch up with the pace of the times, China also needs to have its own place in such a competitive environment.
Compared with 2G, 3G and 4G, 5G is not independent and brand-new. It is a combination and further development of present mobile communication technology. Besides the speed upgrade, 5G will also meet the requirements of large bandwidth, super high capacity, super dense site, super high reliability and whenever and wherever possible assess.
There are some rapid changes in China’s telecom space. With the 3G network now widely used, and 4G just around the corner, China is now preparing to enter the 5G era. China has started research and development on the 5G network, and plan to launch the network testing by around 2020. It’s expected that a unified standard will be adopted globally with the 5G technology.
"Under a same standard, different enterprises can be connected, and form a competition environment. Therefore, we can guarantee that enterprises can gain reasonable profits, and at the same time provide faster, better, more convenient and cheaper services to consumers." Wu Ku, Director of Dept. of Science & Tech., MIIT said.
Wu Hequan from Chinese academy of engineering said, "5G will make it possible to connect one million devices to the so-called Internet of Things within one square meter. In the future, it will also be available on high-speed trains moving as fast as 500 kilometers per hour. In the area of the Internet of Vehicles, it can be used in unmanned vehicles, assisted driving and the management of smart cities."
Wu believes China's future Internet will be faster, more intelligent and more reliable.
Chinese government pays more attention to the development of 5G and adopts a more open attitude. With the joint effort of the industry, China will play an increasing important role in the global 5G development.

Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky( 狡猾的). Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents(天才) and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, although you think it is so, it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective(客观的), and to actively convince(客观的) yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting(提升) a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!
12. You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.
A. dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourself
C. are not confident about yourself D. have a high opinion of yourself
13. How should you change your self-image according to the passage?
A. To keep a different image of others. B. To make your life successful.
C. To understand your own world. D. To change the way you think.
14. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to prepare for your success. B. How to face challenges in your life.
C. How to build a positive self-image. D. How to develop your good qualities.
15. Who are the intended readers of the passage?
A. Parents. B. Adolescents. C. Educators. D. People in general.

During the holiday of National Day, I saw a heated crime action movie naming Operation Mekong，that was based on a true story known as the Mekong Massacre. Two Chinese commercial vessels were hijacked while traveling down the Mekong River of the Golden Triangle, one of the large drug-manufacturing region in the world. All 13 sailors killed, and 900,000 methamphetamine pills were found on the spot by Thailand officials. The Chinese government sent a group of admirable officers to the Golden Triangle so as to uncover a truth of the case. The police informer in Thailand concentrated all her attention on the usual clues. By updating clues constant, he assisted his colleagues to acquire thorough evidence of the crime. Eventually officers cracked the criminal organization and brought criminals to justice. All in all, I highly recommend this film to all of you, so it is eye-catching and thought-provoking, and I think it is worth to seeing.

How are you recently? New semester is coming but it brings lots of problems to me. And I feel upset about my school life.
First of all, I have nine subjects which are more than I have in middle school and I often spend three or four hours on my homework everyday. So I hardly have time to relax afterclass. What's worse, sometimes I feel tired when having classes because of the lack of sleep. The exams put much pressure on me and so do my parents.
As for me,I expect eagerly a happy school life but now I can't bear the stresses and strains of the current life. I feel so helpless. Please give me some suggestions and advices.
Yours,
Li Hua.
