外研版（2019）选择性必修第三册《Unit 4 A glimpse of the future》2023年同步练习卷（3）

一、阅读理解

• 1．What will the schools of the future look like with the introduction of 5 G technology？The answer is smart campuses，with high-tech features to help students learn more effectively and safely.They also bring convenience to teachers and administrators.
     The University of British Columbia has partnered with tech company Rogers Communications to install a massive 5 G network on its campus.Researchers at the school can use the network to test real-time 5 G applications，as well as access a data storage facility similar to "cloud" storage.
     US tech company Amazon is also looking to get into the smart campus arena（舞台）. "Alexa，the company's voice-activated classes more efficiently"，says Amazon.For example，if a teacher has to teach different classes in different rooms，Alexa can remember the teacher's preferences，such as whether or not they need to use a projector.Other smart technology，like facial recognition scanners，can allow teachers to automatically lock or unlock classroom doors，while students can store their textbooks in smart lockers linked to their student ID cards.
     People often describe college campuses as "mini-cities".After all，they have their own on-campusinfrastructure，including transport links，roads，shops，restaurants-even police.And just like the smart cities being designed around the world，many college campuses are adopting smart technology.
     Unlike cities，universities are seen as a particularly good testing ground for smart technology because many of them have sole control over their property. "Cities are so big，and there are so many players and stakeholders（利益相关者），it can be difficult.But many universities around the world have control over their estates.They own all their buildings…so they can become like a living lab，" said Gemmy Ginty，a designer working on a smart campus development strategy for the University of Glasgow，UK，in a news report by the Guardian.
