B
Six weeks before his birthday, Giuseppe Paternò achieved the dream of a lifetime: He got a university degree.
Mr. Paternò's graduation has inspired news coverage around the world, partly because of his age. But he has mainly drawn attention because his life story speaks of commitment, a theme that has encouraged as millions of schoolchildren in Italy and elsewhere faces extraordinary uncertainty during the coronavirus pandemic.
Born in Palermo in 1923, the first of seven children in a “very poor family,” Mr. Paternò began working soon after finishing elementary school. “The family was large, there was only one paycheck, we were under fascism, and times were tough,” he said.
Eventually, he ended up at a publishing house where an enlightened boss persuaded his father to send him back to school for a three-year vocational degree. Mr. Paternò then worked for an insurance agency while he took private classes to become a telegraph operator. He used skills from the operator job when he was drafted into the navy in World War II. The job also opened doors to the State Railways Company, where he worked for more than four decades.
It was only after he retired, in the mid-1980s, that he returned to his books, taking theology courses through the Archdiocese of Palermo after a chance meeting with a philosophy professor who urged him to follow his love.
Mr. Paterno's son Ninni Paternò, said that the family had not expected all the attention. “It's unbelievable!” the vounger Paternò said of his father. “He achieved his goal, but he didn't mean to be famous in newspapers around the world.”
University officials are hoping that Mr. Paternò will continue his studies on waster's course. But he isn't so sure. “I have to admit that in this moment, I don't know whether I would do it with the same spirit,” he said on Wednesday. Still, Mr. Paternò said he would probably continue anyway.
4. What's the main reason for the world to report Mr. Paternò's graduation
A. His experience shows the spirit of commitment.
B. Mr. Paternò achieved his dream at an old age.
C. His graduation ceremony was during the coronavirus pandemic.
D. His achievement is extraordinary.
5 What does the underline word “this job” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Working for an insurance company.
B. Severing in the navy in World War II.
C. A telegraph operator.
D. The job in the State Railway Company.
6. What can we learn about Mr. Paternò's son's words
A. The family had not agreed Mr. Paternò's decision.
B. Mr. Paternò didn't want to gain the world's attention.
C. Mr. Paternò suffered a lot to achieve his goal.
D. Mr. Paternò's achievement is not worth mentioning.
7. What can we learn from the passage
A. It's never too late to achieve a dream. B. No pains, no gains.
C. Young at heart. D. Practice makes perfect.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A

The Pacific island of Tonga was struck by huge volcanic explosion on January 15, 2022, which was followed by a tsunami (海啸) that flooded the regions of the capital, Nuku’alofa. Witnesses reported ash was falling over the capital, and social media images showed water flooding into a church and many residences. Local residents had to flee to higher ground when the tsunami warning was issued.
The capital of Tonga is around 65 kilometers north of the volcano. The volcano’s plumes of gas, smoke, and ash extended 20 kilometers into the sky, according to Tonga Geological Services. According to authorities in Suva, the eight-minute eruption was so powerful that it could be heard as “loud thunder sounds” more than 500 miles away. Storm waves have been predicted in New Zealand, which is more than 2,300 kilometers away from Tonga.
Internet and phone lines went down after the violent volcanic eruption, leaving the 105,000 residents on the islands almost uncontactable. All communication to the outside world in Tonga was affected due to damage to the undersea cable (电缆). Digicel, a Jamaican phone company that partly owns the Tonga Cable System, said that it might take 24 hours to restore the important communications link before it could provide an update on work. The company said it was working urgently with local authorities to “resolve the damage”, adding that its domestic (国内的) mobile phone towers were operating across the main island of Tongatapu.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said that the New Zealand government has made an initial sum of 340,000 dollars available to provide assistance to Tonga. An Australian Air Force P8 Poseidon aircraft also reached Tonga on January 17. Meanwhile, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said that China is closely watching the volcanic eruptions and the disasters including tsunami and volcanic ash in Tonga, and stands ready to provide every possible support and assistance at Tonga’s request.
8. What was the influence of the tsunami
A. The huge volcanic explosion struck Tonga.
B. Local residents were forced to move away.
C. The capital of Tonga was completely flooded.
D. Many churches and residents were flooded away.
9. What’s paragraph 2 mainly about
A. The reason for the volcanic explosion.
B. The enormous losses caused by the flood.
C. The serious air pollution due to volcanic ash.
D. The widespread effect of the volcanic eruption.
10. What does the underlined word “uncontactable” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. In total confusion. B. In great danger.
C. Out of sight. D. Out of touch.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Support from different countries is around the corner.
B. The way of predicting natural disasters needs improving.
C. Post-disaster reconstruction faces many difficulties.
D. Volcanic eruptions have a great effect on global climate.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了汤加火山喷发造成的巨大影响及国际社会对汤加的灾后援助。

细节理解题。根据第一段“Local residents had to flee to higher ground when the tsunami warning was issued. (海啸警报发布后，当地居民不得不转移到地势较高的地方)”可知，海啸迫使当地居民不得不转移，故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“According to the authorities in Suva, the 8-minute eruption was so powerful that it could be heard as ‘loud thunder sounds’ more than 500 miles away. Storm surges have been predicted in New Zealand, which is more than 2 300 kilometres away from Tonga.(据苏瓦当局称，这场8分钟的喷发威力巨大，在500多英里外可以听到“巨大的雷声”。据预测，距离汤加2300多公里的新西兰将出现风暴潮)”可知，本段主要介绍了火山喷发的广泛影响，故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Internet and phone lines went down after the violent volcanic eruption(猛烈的火山爆发后，互联网和电话线中断)”可知，互联网和电话线的中断会导致岛上的居民与外界失联。由此猜测划线词意为“无法联系的，失去联系的”，与out of touch同义。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern said that the New Zealand government has made an initial sum of $340,000. available to provide assistance to Tonga. An Australia Air Force P8 Poseidon aircraft also reached Tonga on January 17. Meanwhile, Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson said that China is closely watching the volcanic eruptions and the disasters, including tsunami and volcanic ash, in Tonga and stands ready to provide every possible support and assistance at Tonga’s request. (新西兰总理雅辛达·阿登表示，新西兰政府已初步拨款34万美元向汤加提供援助。澳大利亚空军的一架P8海神号飞机也于1月17日抵达汤加。与此同时，中国外交部发言人表示，中国正在密切关注汤加火山喷发和海啸、火山灰等灾害，并随时准备应汤加的要求提供一切可能的支持和援助)”推知，国际社会对汤加的援助即将到来，故选A。

Six weeks before his birthday, Giuseppe Paternò achieved the dream of a lifetime: He got a university degree.
Mr. Paternò's graduation has inspired news coverage around the world, partly because of his age. But he has mainly drawn attention because his life story speaks of commitment, a theme that has encouraged as millions of schoolchildren in Italy and elsewhere faces extraordinary uncertainty during the coronavirus pandemic.
Born in Palermo in 1923 the first of seven children in a “very poor family,” Mr. Paternò began working soon after finishing elementary school. “The family was large, there was only one paycheck, we were under fascism, and times were tough,” he said.
Eventually, he ended up at a publishing house where an enlightened boss persuaded his father to send him back to school for a three-year vocational degree. Mr. Paternò then worked for an insurance agency while he took private classes to become a telegraph operator. He used skills from the operator job when he was drafted into the navy in World War II. The job also opened doors to the State Railways Company, where he worked for more than four decades.
It was only after he retired, in the mid-1980s, that he returned to his books, taking theology courses through the Archdiocese of Palermo after a chance meeting with a philosophy professor who urged him to follow his love.
Mr. Paterno's son, Ninni Paternò, said that the family had not expected all the attention. “It's unbelievable!” the vounger Paternò said of his father. “He achieved his goal, but he didn't mean to be famous in newspapers around the world.”
University officials are hoping that Mr. Paternò will continue his studies on waster's course. But he isn't so sure. “I have to admit that in this moment, I don't know whether I would do it with the same spirit,” he said on Wednesday. Still, Mr. Paternò said he would probably continue anyway.
4. What's the main reason for the world to report Mr. Paternò's graduation
A. His experience shows the spirit of commitment.
B. Mr. Paternò achieved his dream at an old age.
C. His graduation ceremony was during the coronavirus pandemic.
D. His achievement is extraordinary.
5. What does the underline word “this job” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Working for an insurance company.
B. Severing in the navy in World War II.
C. A telegraph operator.
D. The job in the State Railway Company.
6. What can we learn about Mr. Paternò's son's words
A. The family had not agreed Mr. Paternò's decision.
B. Mr. Paternò didn't want to gain the world's attention.
C Mr. Paternò suffered a lot to achieve his goal.
D. Mr. Paternò's achievement is not worth mentioning.
7. What can we learn from the passage
A. It's never too late to achieve a dream. B. No pains, no gains.
C. Young at heart. D. Practice makes perfect.

The Pacific island of Tonga was struck by huge volcanic explosion on January 15, 2022, which was followed by a tsunami (海啸) that flooded the regions of the capital, Nuku’alofa. Witnesses reported ash was falling over the capital, and social media images showed water flooding into a church and many residences. Local residents had to flee to higher ground when the tsunami warning was issued.
The capital of Tonga is around 65 kilometers north of the volcano. The volcano’s plumes of gas, smoke, and ash extended 20 kilometers into the sky, according to Tonga Geological Services. According to authorities in Suva, the eight-minute eruption was so powerful that it could be heard as “loud thunder sounds” more than 500 miles away. Storm waves have been predicted in New Zealand, which is more than 2,300 kilometers away from Tonga.
Internet and phone lines went down after the violent volcanic eruption, leaving the 105,000 residents on the islands almost uncontactable.

The 5G smart medical innovation laboratory jointly established by Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital, telecommunication giant China Telecom and tech giant Huawei, has provided technical support for the two cases.
A few minutes of cardiopulmonary ultrasound examination will produce up to 2GB of ultrasonic image data, with a high transmission (传播) speed and low delay.
It was also not the first time 5G-powered robots had played a full role in China’s epidemic prevention and control.
The 5G cloud intelligent robots developed by another telecommunication giant China Mobile and robot maker CloudMinds have been working in Hubei Province and other places, providing medical services such as remote care, body temperature tests, cleaning and drug delivery.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said in a notice that it would support the application of the Internet, big data, cloud computing and artificial intelligence in areas such as epidemic monitoring, virus sourcing, epidemic prevention and treatment.
