频率线,目前还没有得到充分利用。由此推知,汉纳在第3段中的话反映了对5G发展的担忧。故选C。
(3)考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“Cell carriers not only will have to upgrade all their cell transceivers (called small cells) but will install(安装) a lot more of them as well.”手机运营商不仅要升级他们所有的手机收发器(称为小型小区,还要安装更多的收发器)可知,5G不仅需要手机运营商升级他们所有的手机收发器,还要安装更多的收发器。可推知,5G需要更多的手机基站。故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“There was 2G, which came along in 199l, replaced with 3G in 2001, followed by 4G in 2009. Now we're hearing about the coming of 5G.”1991年出现的2G, 2001年被3G取代,2009年又出现了4G。现在我们听到了5G的到来。可知,本文主要介绍了5G网络的一些基本情况。5G网络的发展属于科技进步,结合选项可知,本文应该来自科学报纸。故选B。

\firm in Frankfurt. Still, he says it was noticeable that when an employee 20 years older than him thanked him for buying lunch he had to swallow twice before adding the word \
Older workers sometimes envy being managed by a younger colleague. Precocious (老成的) youngsters, too, can feel awkward about bossing their elders around. But in Germany a shortage of skilled workers means that such situations are becoming even more common.
The country's population is projected to shrink. As more Germans retire, fewer youngsters are entering the work-place to replace them. As a share of the working population the number of 15-to-24-year-olds has fallen by ten percent since the 1980s, says the German Federal Employment Agency. Firms competing to hire young talent have to promote them earlier as a result. A paper by professors at the university of Cambridge and WHU, a German business school, to be published in the Journal of Organizational Behavior, suggests this could be a problem.
As in many countries, German work-places are legally obliged to overlook age when deciding whom to promote. Yet according to Jochen Menges, one of the authors, when an ordinary worker leap-frogs a more experienced one it can leave the latter with feelings of \fear and disgust.\in being bossed about by someone younger. The relationship between feelings of anxiety and the age of the boss is clear, according to Mr Menges. A manager who is younger by one year is somewhat unsettling; a gap of 20 years is far more discouraging.
German firms certainly shouldn't return to a system in which age equals to rank. But young people tend to be sensitive about managing upwards. And older workers should be encouraged to see the bright side of learning new skills. Daimler, a big German car firm, says it promotes age- mixed teams, so that knowledge can be transferred between generations. It also supports young managers by asking retired employees to provide temporary support.
(1)For what does the author mention a young German manager and his experience in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To present an argument. C. To attract readers' interest. D. To describe his own idea.
(2)Why are some precocious youngsters bossing their elders around in Germany? A. Precocious youngsters are all skilled workers. B. Such situations are becoming more common. C. Fewer youngsters would like to do hard work. D. Companies compete fiercely to hire young talent.
(3)In which of the following situations might an employee regard himself as a failure according to the passage?
A. When he has to decide whom to promote. B. When he leap-frogs a more experienced worker. C. When he is being bossed about by someone younger. D. When he experiences feelings of anger, fear and disgust.
(4)What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean? A. A younger boss is more likely to be nervous and anxious.
B. An employee with a younger boss tends to suffer from anxiety. C. There is a connection between anxiety and the age of promotion. D. The age of the boss and anxiety are closely related. (5)What can we learn from the passage? A. Qualified workers should be promoted to boss. B. Older workers should support younger managers. C. Older workers are no better than younger colleagues. D. You are never too old to learn, or too young to manage. 【答案】 (1)A (2)D (3)C (4)B (5)D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,由于德国年轻人数量下降,竞相雇佣年轻人才的公司不得不更早地提拔年轻人来做管理人员,拥有一位年轻的老板对员工无形中也产生了焦虑感。就此应该鼓励老员工看到学习新技能的光明面,以及组建年龄混合的团队。 (1)考查推理判断。根据第一段中的”Still, he says it was noticeable that when an employee 20 years older than him thanked him for buying lunch he had to swallow twice before adding the word ’boss‘.“不过,他说,值得注意的是,当一名比他大20岁的员工感谢他买了午餐时,他不得不吞下两口,然后才加上“老板”一词。提到的事例以及第二段中的”Older workers sometimes envy being managed by a younger colleague. Precocious youngsters, too, can feel awkward about bossing their elders around. But in Germany a shortage of skilled workers means that such situations are becoming even more common.“年长的员工有时会羡慕被年轻的同事管理。早熟的年轻人也会因为对长辈颐指气使而感到尴尬。但在德国,熟练工人的短缺意味着这种情况变得更加普遍。对第一段的现象进行解释说明,可知作者在第一段中提到了一个年轻的德国经理和他的经历是为了引入主题。故选A。
(2)考查推理判断。根据第四段中的”15-to-24-year-olds has fallen by ten percent since the 1980s, says the German Federal Employment Agency. Firms competing to hire young talent have to promote them earlier as a result.“德国联邦职业介绍所表示,自上世纪80年代以来,15至24岁的年轻人数量下降了10%。因此,竞相雇佣年轻人才的公司不得不更早地提拔他们。可知在德国有些早熟的年轻人对长辈颐指气使,这是因为公司为雇佣年轻人才的激烈竞争,导致年轻人更早地被提拔为管理人员。故选D。
(3)考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的”People tend to judge their own standing by the success of their peers, and to see failure in being bossed about by someone younger.“人们倾向于根据同龄人的成功来判断自己的地位,并认为被年轻人左右是失败的。可知当员工被更年轻的人颐指气使的时候,他会认为自己是失败的。故选C。
(4)考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的”A manager who is younger by one year is somewhat unsettling; a gap of 20 years is far more discouraging. “一个年轻一岁的经理有点让人不安;20年的差距更让人沮丧。可推知老板年龄越年轻,员工的焦虑感越明显,故可推知划线句子意思是:拥有年轻老板的员工往往会感到焦虑。故选B。
(5)考查主旨大意。根据最后一段中的”But young people tend to be sensitive about managing upwards. And older workers should be encouraged to see the bright side of learning new skills. Daimler, a big German car firm, says it promotes age- mixed teams, so that knowledge can be transferred between generations. It also supports young managers by asking retired employees to provide temporary support.“但年轻人往往对向上管理很敏感。应该鼓励老员工看到学习新技能的光明面。德国大型汽车公司戴姆勒表示,他们提倡年龄混合的团队,这样知识就可以在几代人之间传递。它还通过要求退休员工提供临时支持来支持年轻的管理者。结合文章主要内容围绕着德国管理者倾向年轻化的问题,主要是说明了人们应当活到老学到老,永远不会因为太年轻而无法管理。故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇社会现象类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,并根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,从而选出正确答案。

Even if you've never been to Phoenix, you know this about the place It's hot. From June to September, the temperature can easily surpass the century mark. But that doesn't stop hikers from attempting the 1.3-mile hiking to the top of the city's famed Camelback Mountain. Signs warn that the trail is \liter of water per person. And if you're still not stopped, another sign farther up declares: \you're halfway through your water, turn around!\
Unfortunately, many people to not take the warnings seriously. Fortunate y, Scott Cullymore does. The 53-year-old Cullymore can be found hiking up and down Camelback a couple of times a day, giving out cold bottles of water to worn-out hikers. He has helped hydrate so many hikers that he has earned a heavenly nickname: the Water Angel.
Cullymore was on Camelback Mountain one day in 2015 when a British tourist died after being lost for nearly six hours in the July heat. That experience inspired him to start helping people caught unaware by the cruelty of Mother Nature. \overestimate what they can do, and they get themselves in trouble.\
One hiker who was offered water agrees. \here in the desert and it surrounds you like a blanket,\high school friend. They were lucky, he said pointing to Cullymore. \ran into this Good Samaritan here.\ (1)What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The risks involved in the hiking. B. The seriousness of the warnings.
C. The distribution of signs that warn hikers. D. The influence of the temperature on hikers. (2)Why did some hikers on Camelback Mountain get in trouble? A. They were not well trained in hiking. B. They forgot to take enough water with them. C. They were too optimistic about the situation. D. They were not fit enough to hike the mountain. (3)What can we know about Austin Hill?
