Recently, HUAWEI, one of China's best high-tech companies, has launched(发布) an app called StorySign, that will make it easier for deaf children to read stories.

Some AI skills from HUAWEI are used in the app. They help deaf children read by turning written text into sign language. A character called Star in the app makes it easier to use the app.

Users can also choose a book from the app's library that is then shown in sign language using cartoon characters. The first book on the StorySign platform(平台) is the popular children's book Spot the Dog.

The developers tried to make the app's main character Star popular with both boys and girls. Star also wears a hearing aid(助听器).

“We created StorySign to make it possible for families with deaf children to enjoy an exciting story time,” said Andrew Garrihy, Huawei's CMO for Western Europe. “We hope that by reminding people to understand deaf children better, they'll be encouraged to support one of the charity partners we are working with across Europe.”

There are about 32 million deaf children around the world. Many of them have trouble learning to read, this might because of no good way to turn written text into sign language. Now the app gives deaf children a great tool.

1.Who should the app StorySign be created for?

A.The children who can't see.

B.The children who can't talk.

C.The children who can't hear.

D.The children who can't walk.

The founder of Huawei seldom spoke to the media, while he let his company's fast growth do the talking. That's changing as Huawei finds itself in a dangerous situation in the US. Ren, 74, tells CNN in an interview that the challenges Huawei faces are just so common for him. "There are always difficulties for me. I never had smooth sailing because when I was young, my family background wasn't good. I had to work really hard to get even just a little bit of opportunity to work."

In 1974, Ren joined the PLA (中国人民解放军) as an engineer. During that period, the country was suffering from terrible food and clothing shortages (短缺). "I had been to college, and people like me could play a role." he said. After the PLA, Ren worked for an oil company before founding Huawei in 1987. It was set up in Shenzhen, which was just a fishing village then.

To get market share, Ren suffered serious depression (抑郁) during the darkest days of the company. Ren pushed staff to work long hours and do whatever it took to save business. Unable to compete in the big cities, Huawei worked on China's small towns and villages. All the time, Ren devoted a lot to research and development, pushing Huawei to create its own technology that would make it compete with its competitors.

Ren worked long hours leaving him little time to build strong relationships with his three children. He has said that while in the PLA, he spent just one month a year with his family. After starting Huawei, "I had to spend 16 hours a day in the office," he said. He once asked his kids whether they’d like him to spend more time with the family or work to "build a platform (平台)" on which they could grow. His children chose the latter (后者).

1.What is the meaning of the underlined word "smooth sailing"?

A.自由航行 B.一帆风顺 C.风平浪静

2.Which is the correct order of the following events?

a. Ren built up Huawei in Shenzhen.

b. America made some trouble to Huawei.

c. Ren joined the army and worked as a soldier.

d. Ren went to college.

e. Ren worked for an oil company.

A.c-d-e-b-a B.d-c-e-a-b C.b-c-d-a-e

3.In Ren's opinion, what can make Huawei compete with its competitors most?

A.Having its own technology B.Being more hardworking C.Finding proper places

4.From the last paragraph, we know that __________.

A.Ren's children preferred to see Ren build a platform for them.

B.Ren tried to spend time with his kids although he was very busy.

C.Ren felt sorry for his children and regretted working long hours.
