【題目】 During the past year, lots of great technologies have come into our lives, such as driverless cars and AI. What will come next? Forbes has listed a few breakthroughs (突破) that may have an influence in the new year.

5G Internet

How fast is your mobile phone? After 3G and 4G, 5G is on the way. According to Science Daily, 5G tests are expected to start as early as 2019 in the US and by 2020 in the UK. China has already tested 5G in some parts of Beijing and Hebei.

3D metal (金屬) printing

3D printing is not new. It first appeared in the 1990s. But it hasn’t been widely used in our daily life. 3D printers are expensive, costing thousands of dollars for each. However, there are new 3D printers that can print metal. HP can print some small metal parts for cars, such as key ring.

Green and renewable energy

As many countries pay much attention to pollution, electric cars and solar energy (太陽能) might become more popular. More carmakers, including Audi and Volvo, will have more electric powered cars on the road. And by 2025, almost every sixth car sold in the world will be electric.

【題目】

The fire at Notre Dame Cathedral(巴黎圣母院) in Paris has raised questions about the condition of thousands of other historic buildings across Europe. It also raises questions about whether European governments are doing enough to keep up and care for such buildings.

Some people say the fire last month was a wake-up call, not just for Europe, but the whole world. Large fires have long robbed humanity of knowledge, art and treasures. One example is the fire at the famous library of Alexandria in northern Egypt about 1700 years ago.

In 2015, the German engineering company Siemens found that Scotland had about 10 serious fires a year, while England lost at least twelve listed buildings a year. In Germany, 70 historic buildings have been destroyed since 2000.

And all too often, fires happen while old buildings are being repaired. Experts say that what is needed is continuous attention and maintenance(維護(hù)). These steps, if taken, could help avoid the need for major repairing work.

But regular attention and maintenance costs money.

Part of the problem comes from the shortage of money provided by governments after the 2008 financial crisis (金融危機(jī)). As a result, governments are increasingly looking for rich companies to keep up these historic buildings.

“We do need more money, but this is a shared duty for governments, businesses and citizens across Europe,” said an officer from the European Union.

Some say world-famous monuments like Notre Dame are the driving force behind tourism and should get more respect. People have noticed the importance of such respect.

“Historic buildings are a gold mine(). You cannot explore it and then just leave the mine and go to another one. It is something you really have to value,” the officer said.

1After the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral, more attention is paid to_________ .

A.European governmentsB.famous libraries

C.engineering companiesD.the old buildings

2According to the passage, one of the biggest enemies of cultural treasures is________.

A.robbersB.firesC.moneyD.tourists

3“These steps” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)___________.

A.attention and maintenanceB.careful repairing work

C.enough respect from peopleD.serious financial crisis

4The officer thinks _______should accept the duty of caring for these famous monuments.

A.citizens around the worldB.the European governments

C.rich European businessesD.the whole European society

5The purpose of writing this article is to ask everyone to____________.

A.value historic buildingsB.donate plenty of money

C.pay attention to big firesD.avoid exploring mines
