1、 阅读短文,回答问题
Slang would not be acceptable at some schools in England. Usually, it starts with a word students aren't allowed to use at the beginning of sentences. You see, a school has made a list of words and phrases, including slang words, which students aren't allowed to use in the classroom. Some of the words and phrases that must not be used at the start of sentences include" No" and" You see". Banned slang includes the phrases" He cut his eyes at me" and" That's a pain in the neck". The school has said that these phrases were appearing in students' work and that it's important they express themselves "clearly and accurately". However, some language experts say this is unfair.
Some people say there are situations when it isn't proper to use certain words or phrases in school. When students are in the classroom, they should be learning how to use language properly, so that they can better express themselves in the future. They can still use slang outside the classroom, but schools should be a formal setting for formal languages, both spoken and written. Using slang too much could mean that students don't develop a wide vocabulary. They then risk being misunderstood by people who don't understand these phrases.
Others think language is always developing. Words take on different meanings and new phrases are developed to help people better express themselves. Words always come in and out of fashion. Slang is a valuable part of this process. Teaching students about the English language should include teaching them about all the different ways it has changed over the centuries.
Trying to avoid slang could have a worse influence on students' education because it might prevent them from expressing themselves well. There's no single way to speak, and schools should celebrate people's differences. Banning slang could make students feel uncomfortable and hinder their learning.
(1)、What's Paragraph 2 mainly about?A、Slang is popular with students. B、Slang is not easy to understand. C、Slang doesn't belong to schools. D、Slang is part of the English language.(2)、The underlined phrase "out of fashion" means "something ____" .A、not popular B、difficult C、expensive D、comfortable(3)、According to Paragraph 3, what's the influence of avoiding slang?A、Students will give up learning English. B、Students can't express themselves well. C、Students can't do well in their English tests. D、Students will find learning English difficult.(4)、Which of the following is NOT a slang term?A、I'm fine, too. B、That's a pain in the neck. C、From the word go. D、He cut his eyes at me. -

In November 2023, the International Civil Aviation Organization officially recognized China's BeiDou Navigation Satellite System as world-class. This makes it one of four global satellite navigation systems, alongside the United States' GPS, Russia's GLONASS, and the European Union's Galileo.
China began developing the BDS in 1994. The system came into operation in 2000. After 12 years of effort, it started serving the Asia-Pacific region. In 2020, with the global launch of BDS-3, China enhanced the system to offer users more accurate positioning services, making it a valuable asset for various industries, including transportation, agriculture, and surveying.
Currently, with numerous satellites in its network, the BDS serves over 1. 5 billion users globally. Most mobile apps in China that provide mapping, navigation, and shopping services already support BDS. China's satellite navigation industry is experiencing rapid growth. ★In 2022, its value exceeded 500 billion yuan and is projected to double by 2025. In the first half of 2023, approximately 13. 4 million new BDS devices were introduced. Nearly 60% were utilized in transportation systems, while the remainder were employed in communications and agriculture, accounting for about 28% and 12%, respectively.
