【題目】 It doesn't take decades of life experience to have a great idea, as many of these young inventors have proved.
The Electronic Television
The electronic television was first designed by a 14-year-old kid in 1920. Philo Taylor Farnsworth shared his concept of an image transmitting (影像傳送) device, an early design of the electronic television, with his science teacher, drawing diagrams on several blackboards in class.
By the age of 21 Farnsworth had a working model which served as a basis to all later development and versions of electronic televisions, After discovering a collection of technology magazines in the attic (閣樓) of his family's new home, he developed a passion and interest in electronics, which led him to explore inventions in the field of, specifically, the image transmission.
In 1927, a few years out of high school, Farnsworth was the first inventor to transmit a television image of a dollar sign, composed of 60 horizontal lines.
Braille Language
Louis Braille suffered a serious eye injury when he was just 3 years old. Not only did the accident cause him blindness on that side, but the infection spread and blinded the other eye as well. After more than a decade of struggling with the slow system of tracing his finger over raised letters, Braille was 12 when he learned of a method of silent communication originally created for the French military. He simplified it, and in 1824 the Braille language was born.
Popsicles (冰棍)
A lot of kids are easily distracted (分散注意力)—and thanks to the short attention span of 11-year-old Frank Epperson we now have popsicles. In 1905, Epperson, a San Francisco native, was stirring powdered drink mix into a cup of water when something else caught his attention. The mixture was forgotten outside the door, and when Epperson rediscovered the drink in the morning, it was a deliciously portable frozen popsicle. After years of making the frozen treats for friends, and eventually his own. children, Epperson filed for a patent in 1924.
【1】Who contributed his intelligence to the invention of TV?
A.Philo Taylor Farnsworth
B.Farnsworth's science teacher.
C.Louis Braille.
D.Epperson.
【2】Which invention was accidentally made because of poor concentration?
A.The Electronic Television.

C.Dollar Sign.
D.Popsicles.
【3】What do the three inventions have in common?
A.They were all designed for the sake of kids.
B.They were all made by young boys.

【題目】 5G has the potential to disrupt a huge number of industries, including one of the world’s oldest: Farming. Next-generation 5G networks can be 100 times faster than 4G, making communication between devices and servers much quicker. 5G can also carry much more data than other networks. That makes the technology ideal for transmitting information from remote sensors and drones, key tools that are being tested by farmers. 5G is also helping to automate farming processes.
UK initiative 5G RuralFirst launched a smartphone app in March called Me+Moo, which lets farmers track a “connected” cow and receive daily updates on the animal’s health and behavior. The system, which is being tested on cows at the Agri-Epi Center in Somerset, England, is funded in part by UK government and supported by the tech company Cisco (CSCO). The cows wear 5G-connected collars that send data to the app on everything from what they’re eating to how they’re sleeping. Farmers can see the information instantly. “This provides peace of mind that the cows are happy, healthy and behaving normally, as well as early warning if they are getting sick, are pregnant or need to be checked,” said project manager Duncan Forbes.
Yet to make a difference, 5G will first need to be installed in rural areas. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) predicts that in order to provide for the world’s rapidly rising population, the planet will need to grow 70% more food in 2050 than it did in 2009. “To respond to those demands, farmers will need new technologies to produce more from less land, with fewer hands,” reads one report from the organization.
In 2017, another 5G RuralFirst project became the first in the world to successfully plant, tend and harvest a crop without a single human stepping foot in the field. Autonomous Automatic tractors sowed the seeds, drones with sensors monitored the crops, and smaller machines took samples from fields to assess what fertilizers and pesticides to apply.
【1】Why can 5G help the farming?
A.Because it can carry more information.
B.Because it can be equipped with sensors.
C.Because it can disrupt a lot of industries.
D.Because it can be installed in rural areas.
【2】What did farmers do firstly if they wanted to use Me+Moo?
A.They founded a tech company.
B.They let the cows wear 5G-connected collars.
C.They kept cows behaving normally.
D.They made sure the cows were checked often.
【3】According to FAO, how will the world solve the food problem?
A.People should control the rising population.
B.People should find more and more land.
C.People should turn to the new technology.
D.People should learn to get more money.
【4】How did RuralFirst decide what kind of fertilizer to apply?
A.It analyzed the soil.
B.It dug earth with tractors.
C.It employed experts.
D.It hired drones with sensors.
