the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
technology. This allowed one person to call and talk to another person, but that was all. By the early
1990s, the second generation, or 2G network, came into use. It allowed talking and sending text
messages. By that time, cell phones were much smaller and cost much less.
Thirdgeneration mobile phones are known as 3G. Data speed in 3G networks is much quicker. This
means users can have highspeed Internet access and enjoy video and CDquality music on their phones.
"Mobile data is not a dream; it"s not an option but a requirement," said Len Lauer, head of a US
communications company, Sprint PCS, at a 3G conference in Bangkok earlier this month.
With 3G, you can forget about text messages telling you yesterday"s news; a 3G phone can receive
video news programs, updated four times a day. Internet access will also be much quicker, making it easier to surf the Web on your phone than on your computer at home.
Don"t worry about getting lost. 3G phones offer map services so you can find a new restaurant just by
pressing a few keys on your handset.
However, the most impressive part of 3G technology is video calling. With live twoway video
communication, you can have facetoface talks with friends and family on your mobile phone.
Within the past two years, the 4G network has come into use. It permits cell phones to work much
faster and have much more information. Modern cell phones can even act as small televisions. They can
show movies and live sporting events.
As the networks have gotten more complex, the telephones have gotten smaller, lighter and less costly. Many electronics stores in the United States even give away the newest cell phones. But customers must agree to pay to use the network that sends their calls from one place to another.
It is interesting to imagine what the 5G and 6G network cell phones of the future will be able to do.

It is difficult for doctors to help a person with  a damaged brain. Without enough blood, the brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors can"t fix the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he operates on the brain. Dr. Robert White, a famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors should make the brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30 minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain. Dr. White tried his idea on 13 monkeys. First he taught them to do different jobs, and then he operated on them. He made the monkeys" blood go through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the blood back to the monkeys" brains. When the brain"s temperature was 10° C, Dr. White stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes he turned the blood back on. He warmed the blood again. After their operations the monkeys were like they had been before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the jobs the doctor had taught them. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Homework is a great way for kids to develop independent, lifelong learning skills, so here are some general homework tips for parents: ● Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework. Avoid having your child do homework with the television on or  in places with other distractions, such as people coming and going.● Make sure the materials your child needs, such as some paper, pencils and a dictionary, are available. Ask your child if special materials will be needed for some projects and get them in advance. ● Help your child with time management. Establish a set time each day for doing homework. Don"t let your child leave homework until just before bedtime. Think about using a weekend morning or afternoon for working on big projects, especially if the project involves getting together with classmates. ● Be positive about homework. Tell your child how important school is. The attitude you express about homework will be the attitude your child acquires. ● When your child asks for help, provide guidance, not answers. Giving answers means your child will not learn the material. Too much help teaches your child that when the going gets rough, someone will do the work for him or her. Cooperation with the teacher. It shows your child that the school and home are a team. Follow the directions given by the teacher. ● Reward progress in homework. If your child has been successful in homework completion and is working hard, celebrate that success with a special even (e.g. pizza, a walk, a trip to the park) to reinforce the positive effort | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
