（B）
I paid a worker to repair my house and he had just finished a difficult job on the first day. A broken wheel made him an hour late; his ladder (梯子) fell down when he was panting the roof and now his old truck wouldn’t start. With each problem he shouted angrily, more at himself than at his things. As I drove him home, the man didn’t say a word.
I tried talking to the man to kill time. And later I found out that he had come up from Blue Hills in Victoria with his family six months ago to find a job. This was his first job since moving here. Now I know why his price was lower than any other worker I could find in the local newspaper. He really needed the job. His clothes told me as much.
When we got his home, to my surprise, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked through his font garden he suddenly stopped at a small tree and placed his hands on it. Then, when he opened the door, he completely changed. Instead of his troubled face, there was now a warm smile, hugs for his two children and a kiss for his wife.
The following day, I asked him about the tree.
“That’s my trouble tree.” he answered.” Work troubles aren’t welcome at home with my wife and the children. So I hang them on that tree every night when I come home. Then in the morning I pick them up again.”
“And you know what else ” he said smiling, “The next morning I find that there aren’t as many as I remember hanging up the night before.”

Your Internet experience is terrible when the net speed is too slow--it takes so long to open a web page and the film you’re watching stops every few minutes. That can be very annoying. But it could be a thing of the past. In the near future, major telecom carriers will start to provide 5G services.
What is 5G What difference will it really make to our lives The “G” in “5G” refers to the generations of mobile network technologies. 1G let us talk to each other, 2G let us send messages, 3G gave us mobile data and the Internet, and 4G made all of these things faster. Now 5G promises much faster data download and upload speeds, and ore stable connections. This means that you will be able to download an entire HD movie in seconds and only experience a short delay between sending and receiving data. For example, when you have a video chat with your friend, there is generally a 200 milliseconds delay with 4G, but 5G will reduce the delay to 1 millisecond, which is almost real time.
5G will be able to improve many advanced technologies, such as driverless cars, wearable devices and entertainment. With a 5G network, the short delay in information exchange will allow driverless cars to run more safely, as they will be able to communicate in real time and avoid dangers. Meanwhile, 5G-enabled wearable devices will keep doctors updated on the health status of their patients, so doctors can give patients advice immediately if there’s something wrong. Besides, VR games will become more popular with 5G. The short delay of 5G will make the games feel even more real.
Though 5G will make our lives more convenient, it will not be perfect. For one thing, 5G will not “travel” far. On 4G networks, you can be 10 kilometres away from the nearest transmission base and barely lose signals. But 5G will only cover about 300 metres, meaning that we will need more transmitters so that we can get signals. And in order to use 5G, we will have to buy new products specifically designed for 5G that are currently expensive.
33. What does the “G” in “5G” refer to
A. Games. B. Groups. C. Grades. D. Generations.
34. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. The advantages of 5G. B. The disadvantages of 5G.
C. The price of 5G products. D. The advanced technologies.
35. Which of the following is NOT true
A. 3G gave us mobile data and the Internet.
B. 5G will allow driverless cars to run more safely.
C. 5G will cover about 300 metres to 1,000 metres.
D. 5G will make the VR games feel even more real.
36. Where is the article possibly from.
A. A diary. B. A magazine. C. A storybook. D. A novel.

第二节、阅读填空（共 5 小题, 每小题 1 分, 共 5 分）
Imagine you are walking through the woods and you see a small dog. It looks cute and friendly. You move up to pat the dog. 41 The dog no longer seems cute and you feel afraid and possibly angry. Then, as the wind blows, the leaves on the ground are carried away and you see the dog has one of its legs caught in a trap. 42. You know it becomes unfriendly because it is in pain.
We all judge others all the time. 43. Or it might be over bigger matters, such as a person who behaves selfishly or hurts our feelings. There are many reasons why we judge others. It is human nature to find a way to survive. When we see a dog (or a person) that might bite us, of course we feel threatened. We become nervous, want to fight back and are unable to see the possible reasons for another's behavior.
Although judgment is a natural reaction, try to catch yourself before you speak, for you can’t get your words back. Make a short stop. 44. After all, like that dog in the trap, we really don’t know the reasons for someone’s behavior.
When someone disagrees with us or somehow makes our life difficult, remember that it's usually not about us. 45. Why not give others the right to express their doubt “Never underestimate the pain of a person,” Will Smith said, “because in all honesty, everyone is struggling. Some people are better at hiding it than others.”
A. Try to change your thought into a positive one.
B. It may be about their pain or struggle.
C. It might be over small things, like a workmate who takes too long of a lunch break. D. Suddenly it barks and tries to bite you.
E. Now, you take pity on the dog.
