In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Yo

Debates Help Youth with Their GradesCLast week, Vodafone started a test of the UKs first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seve
38、n UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to
39、 catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UKs first hologram (全息 ) call.

It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expec
43、ted in the coming year.

Objective.D9Mark Twain has been called the inventor of the American novel. And he surelydeserves additional praise:
48、 the man who popularized the clever literary attack on racism.I say clever because anti-slavery fiction had been the important part of the literature in the years before the Civil War. H.B. Stowes Uncle Toms Cabin is only the most famous example. These early stories dealt directly with slavery. With
49、 minor exception, Twain planned his attacks on slavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely. He drew his readers into the argument by drawing them into the story.Again and again, in the postwar years, Mark Twain seemed forced to deal with the challenge of race. Consider the most controversial, at least today, of Twains novels, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Only a few books have been
