point that it has become a problem. In recent years, the de Young received more than a thousand complaints from people who felt that cell phones had spoiled their experience of the exhibit. Institutions of fine art around the world face similar problems as the desire to take photographs becomes a huge attraction for museums, as well as something that upsets some of their patrons (资助人). So the de Young responded with a kind of compromise: carving out \ free\ hours during the exhibition's six-day run. One common complaint about the effect of social media on museum culture is that people seem to be missing out on experiences because they are so busy collecting evidence of them. A study recently published in the journal Psychological Science suggests there is some truth to this.It finds that people who keep taking photos of an exhibit and posting them on social media rather than simply observing it have a hard time remembering what they see. But the issue is complex for the professionals running museums. Linda Butler, the de Young's head of marketing and visitor experience, acknowledges that not everyone wants a museum to be “a photo-taking play land.\ Yet a lot of people do, and she believes that the de Young is in no position to judge one reason for buying a$8 ticket to be more valid than another. “If we removed social media and photography,\ she says, \ would risk becoming irrelevant.\

Slowly but surely, we’re moving closer and closer to 5G world. From smart home security to self-driving cars, all the internet-connected devices in our life will be able to talk to each other at lightning- fast speeds with reduced delay. Objectively speaking, the fastest 4G download speeds in the U.S. top out at an average of 19.42 Mbps. But by comparison 5G promises gigabit(千兆) speeds.
“5G is one of those heralds(预兆), along with artificial intelligence, of this coming data age,” said Steve Koenig, vice president of market research for the Consumer Technology Association. “The self- driving vehicle is a great emblem if this data age, and that is to say, it is a sign of time, because with one single task, driving, you have massive amounts of data coming from the vehicle itself, and a variety of sensors are collecting a lot of information to model its environment as it moves. It’s pulling in data from from other vehicles about road conditions down the lanes. It could be weather information, or connected infrastructure(基础设施) construction. There is lots of data behind that task, which is why we need the capacity and high speed.”
And virtual reality glasses and headsets haven’t yet become the mainstream, but tech companies are joyfully betting that these devices will eventually replace our smartphones. With 5个, that could actually happen. This is notable because companies such as Apple are reportedly developing AR glasses to assist -or even replace - smart phones.
Ericsson stated at February’s Mobile World Congress how smart glasses could become faster and lighter with a 5G connection, because instead of being weighed down with components, the glasses could rely on hardware for processing power.
But don’tget too excited. There’s still a lot of work to be done in the meantime, including various trials to make sure the radios play nicely with hardware and infrastructure construction, so 5G isn’t concentrated only in big cities.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A.The coming world of 5G. B.The tight security of 5G. C.The super speed of 5G. D.A potential dream of 5G.
33. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “emblem” in Paragraph 2?
A.Exhibition. B. Success. C. Symbol. D. Explanation. 34. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?
A.5G world will no longer work effectively without the virtual reality devices. B.Apple and other companies are creatively developing worldwide AR glasses. C.These virtual reality devices are properly opening up the commercial market soon.
