Mobile phone users in China expected a pleasant surprise this month. Starting from October 1, a new policy adopted by the three giant cellphone operators — China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom — has allowed unused data from individual data packages to be carried over to the next month for use.
At the beginning, users of the three telecommunication companies welcomed this policy, since they would have more free data to use in the next month. However, even before Chinese users could enjoy the free extra package, the users found that since the adoption of the policy, the original data limits seem to be far more easily swallowed up, which means there wouldn’t be any unused data left for the next month. One user of China Unicom claimed that it took him only nine days to use up the data package of a month.
Telecoms have become a necessity in modern life like water or power, and raising or lowering costs significantly affects people’s lives and finances. But disagreements between consumers and service providers cover discussion. It is too early to judge how long the disagreement between telecommunication companies and consumers over data packages will last, since, according to media reports, the measurement of data usage is difficult to track. Companies are using “user privacy” to avoid giving out any information.
But reading through the companies posted online by cellphone users, we can sense the public’s distrust of Stated-owned enterprises (SOEs). A survey done by the people’s Tribune Research Center in 2012 found that the public’s negative impression of SOEs came from the belief that they only rely on government support and their employees usually do easy jobs but get higher pay, yet their sense of service is far behind private and foreign enterprises.
The current argument over the data package of three State-owned telecommunication giants reflects the extent of public anger. Among the country’s anti-corruption campaign (反腐败运动) and reforms, it shows the public’s enthusiasm for deepening reforms and making SOEs benefit domestic consumers.
1.The attitude of the users towards the new policy of the three telecommunication companies at the beginning can be best described as ________.
A. indifferent B. opposed C. positive D. disappointed
2.What is the result of the new policy adopted by the three telecommunication companies?
A. Chinese phone users are allowed to send their unused data to their friends.
B. Chinese phone users are presented with much cheaper individual data packages.
C. Chinese phone users have no need to buy individual data packages.
D. Chinese phone users consume the data much sooner than expected.
3.Which of the following is NOT the public’s impression of SOEs?
A. SOEs are supported by the government to a large extent.
B. SOEs have benefited domestic consumers effectively.
C. SOEs’ employees don’t deserve the high pay.
D. SOEs’ service is worse than private and foreign enterprises.
4.The last paragraph most probably implies that ________.
A. the public are not satisfied with the reforms at present
B. the public do not care about the country’s reforms
C. the public think highly of anti-corruption campaign
D. the public are confident about the reform of SOEs

You can’t make a call or send a text on your mobile phone in the US town of Green Bank, West Virginia. Wireless Internet is outlawed, as is Bluetooth. As you approach the tiny town on a two-lane road that snakes through the mountains, your mobile phone signal drops out, and your radio stops working. The rusted pay phone on the north side of town is the only way for a visitor to reach the rest of the world. It’s a pre-modern place by design, lacking of the latest technologies that define life today.
The reason for the town’s empty airwaves is apparent the moment you arrive. It’s the Robert C. Byrd telescope, also known as the GBT, a shiny white, 147-metre-tall satellite dish. It’s the largest of its kind in the world and one of nine in Green Bank, all of them government owned and operated by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).
You don’t look through these kinds of telescopes. They’re radio telescopes, so instead of looking for distant stars, they listen for them. There’s a long line of astronomers all over the world who want to use the telescope which is so sensitive that it could hear a single snowflake hitting the ground 1,000 miles away.
Such a sensitive listening tool needs total technological silence to operate, so in 1958 the US government created a National Radio Quiet Zone, a 33,000 km2 area covering Green Bank where, to this day, electronic and radio signals are forbidden every hour of every day.
People who live within a 15km of the Green Bank telescope are allowed to use landline telephones, wired Internet and cable televisions, but microwave ovens, wireless Internet and radios are forbidden. You can have a mobile phone, but you won’t get a signal.
Because of how much its way of life varies from the rest of America, Green Bank seems to be a somewhat isolated (隔绝), even alien place. For locals, the technology ban is annoying. For others who come to Green Bank for a little rest and relaxation, the town has become a refuge.
1.What do we know about the town of Green Bank from Paragraph 1?
A. It’s located at the base of a large mountain.
B. It is geographically and technologically isolated.
C. Its telecommunications are affected by its geography.
D. Many people live in the town and its surrounding areas.
2.How does the GBT work?
A. It traps light waves in its huge dish.
B. It stops all electronic and radio signals.
C. It receives pictures from space satellites.
D. It listens for and receives noises from space.
3.What equipment are locals of the Green Bank allowed to use?
A. Cable TV, wired Internet and radio.
B. Landline phones, wired Internet and cable TV.
C. Public phones, wireless Internet and mobile phones.
D. Landline phones, microwave ovens and cable internet.
4.What does the underlined word “refuge” in the last paragraph most probably mean?
A. A place of escape. B. A source of confusion.
C. An area of interest. D. A sign of danger.

Did you know that almost 100% of the materials in your mobile phone can be recovered and recycled to generate energy or make new products, such as plastic products, electronics or even jewelry? Every mobile phone contains significant amounts of copper, aluminum, gold, plastic and other non-metals that can be recycled and reused.
The Singtel x SingPost E-waste Recycling Programme, launched on World Environment Day, 5 June 2017, is a cooperation between the two leading ICT and postal companies as part of their environmental sustainability efforts.
Called ReCYCLE, the programme provides the means for people to do their part for the environment by recycling their mobile and internet related electronic waste such as mobile phones and chargers, laptops and tablets, modems and routers, and other related accessories(配件).
These unwanted devices can be dropped off into the ReCYCLE bins at selected Singtel Shop and Singtel Exclusive Retailer outlets and Post Offices. You can also ask for a ReCYCLE envelope from any Singtel Shop and Singtel Exclusive Retailer outlets, and Post Offices, and mail your mobile device and accessories at no charge.
This programme reduces waste as it ensures that the valuable metals and components the devices contain get recovered. However, e-waste that is often thrown away, including all the precious metals that it contains, will be burnt and landfilled at Semakau Landfill.
Is the data in my e-waste safe when sent for recycling?
We assured that all storage media devices like SIM cards, memory cards, USB flash drives and hard drives are safe for recycling. Cimelia, our e-waste recycling partner is a reliable and NEA-licensed company, which are only interested in extracting(提取) the precious metals from the devices, NOT the data in them.
