You’ll need to take a deep breath before hearing this news. An astonishing 93% of kids around the world live in environments with air pollution levels that are damaging theirhealth,according to a new report by World Health Organization (WHO).
Air pollution is to blame for the deaths of 543,000 kids under 5 in 2016,with more than one in four deaths of children under five-years-old being related to environmental problems. Exposure to air pollution can damage the health of kids in a variety of ways, either causing or being associated with everything from low birth weight to childhood obesity(肥胖)and so on.
“The diseases and deaths shown by these new data should result in an urgent call to action for the global community(社区)一especially for those concerning health.” WHO stated. “Strong action to reduce exposure to air pollution offers a chance to protect the health of children. ” The report stressed that health experts should communicate with families,communities and policy-makers about the serious risks of air pollution exposure, “Although more researches into how air pollution affects children s health will continue to be valuable, there is
already evidence to justify(证明……有理)strong and swift action to prevent the damage it clearly produces,”WHO added.
Disease caused by dirty air is more common in low- and middle-income countries, especially those in Africa, Southeast Asia - and Western Pacific. Poor countries in these areas have the highest levels of exposure to household air pollution due to the use of polluting fuels and technologies for basic needs like cooking,heating and lighting.
Advised approaches to dealing with air pollution include cleaner transport, cleaner cooking and heating fuels and technologies, energy-efficient housing and urban planning, safer industrial technologies and better waste management* -

We have recently heard some interesting ways that 5G wireless technology might change our lives in the future. 5G promises internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than present 4G systems. The technology was also built to handle many more users without slowing wireless services down. Such improvements are sure to be popular with 5G users worldwide.
One project in Britain,though,is testing this superfast technology on internet
users—cows. The system connects the animals to 5G in an effort to automate the milking process.
The project was developed by American technology company Cisco Systems. It is part of a Cisco-led program called 5G RuralFirst. The project also receives money from the British government. Dairy cows wear 5G smart collars that allow them to be milked by a robotic milking machine at a farm in Shepton Mallet, England. The program seeks to explore the possibilities of 5G connectivity in rural (乡村的)communities around the world. Rural areas are expected to be the last to receive 5G service.
Testing areas were set up at farms in three rural areas of England. The cows are fitted with 5G smart collars and ear sensors. These devices(设备)link up to a robotic milking system. The system uses sensors and machines learning to fully automate the process. System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each cow. It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process, the machine reward the cow with food.
Project officials say the devices do not harm the cows and the ear sensors permit farmers to immediately identify any health concerns.
Nick Chrissos who works on the project for Cisco said the system could connect every cow, and every other animal on the whole farm. “That’s what 5G can do for farming—really spread the power that we have within this farm,everywhere around the United Kingdom, and everywhere around the world.”
32. Why does Cisco Systems test its project at farms in rural areas of England?
A. It intends to know the potential of 5G connectivity in worldwide rural areas.
B. It wants to make some changes and improvements on 5G technology secretly.
C. The British government requires it to instruct farmers to produce more milk.
D. People in rural areas are actually in urgent need of 5G connectivity for farming.
33. What is the function of the car sensors?
A.Detecting the stability of 5G wireless services.
B.Assisting the cows in producing milk slowly.
C.Offering healthy food to the cows as rewards.
D.Observing the health condition of the cows.
34. What's Nick Chrissos’s attitude toward the role 5G plays in farming?
A. Ambiguous. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Worried.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A.Special Program Called 5G RuralFirst
B.5G Helps in the Milking Process of Cows
C.The Future Development of 5G Technology
D.Cows Connected to 5G Produce More Milk

Music most likely isn’t the largest reason motivating where you choose to dine. 36 And according to Nation’s Restaurant News, if they aren’t thinking about music, they should be.
In a recent post about music’s role in restaurant design, author Mark Brandau details the different ways sound influences sales,how different times of the day call for their own soundtrack and how restaurants cater to certain diners. Here are a few “notes” to keep in mind the next time you need to pick a restaurant:
It’s someone’s job to build playlists. Restaurant owners hire experts to build music playlists which don’t include commercials and need to be scored. These paid-for playlists are required for different times of the day. 37
What you hear at lunch won’t be what you hear at dinner. And what you hear after dinner will be something entirely different. 38 In that case, soft music may be key to helping them create the atmosphere.
You probably have heard some songs before. 39 Ambiance Radio offers playlists for Little Greek, in Florida, and also Schlotzsky's and Union Square Cafe, in New York City. Vojnovic, who started his career at Chili's,said that years ago,instrumental tapes of background music were changed only once per quarter.
40 Brandau explains that some restaurants prefer to pump up the volume(音量),not to annoy certain groups of customers, but to stay true to their main guests. If
college students are a restaurant’s target consumers, the restaurant may deliberately play music older crowds consider uninviting.
A. Music builds restaurants’ brands.
B. Music helps restaurants choose diners.
C. Some restaurants aim to increase late-night traffic.
D. Restaurants may be using the same music providers.
E. You go to a certain restaurant due to its various songs.
F. Therefore, there’s enough variety to avoid repeating songs.
G. However, restaurant owners put much thought into what they play in their restaurants.
