| Things 3 Things is an award-winning task manager. It helps users collect their thoughts and plan their time well. The app's chief design is a to-do list. It allows users to add context (内容), such as the time, date or location that they plan to carry the task out. It then shows a "Today" view with the day's tasks, and group's things users do after work under the heading "This Evening". It puts later tasks in a list tiled "Upcoming". |
| StoryZ In the age of smartphones, everyone is a photographer. From taking selfies to sharing them on social media (社交软件) , photo-editing apps play an important role in making our pictures look perfect. StoryZ's latest version takes it a step further. The app has two modes. The fist one is "Ripple Effect (涟漪效应)", which makes still images (图像) move and come to life. It can create amazing animated photographs. Another one is "Motion Effect (动态效果) "which creates video stories on still images. It can turn your photo into animated GIF. |

When Isaac Theil let a sleepy stranger take a little catnap (打盹) on his shoulder, it was because “I simply remembered the times my own head would bop on someone's shoulder because I was so tired after a long day,” he said to Tova Ross of Tablet Magazine.
Another subway rider was so moved by Theil's kindness that he took a picture and put it on Reddit, from which it was then posted to Facebook. One wrote “Heading home on the Q train yesterday when this young black guy nodded off on the shoulder of a stranger. The man didn't move a bit and just let him stay there.

Theil himself has been completely surprised at the attention he's received for his small act of kindness, as the photo has been shared over 20, 000 times on Facebook.
“There is only one reason that I didn't move, and let him continue sleeping, that he was simply a man being who was exhausted, and I knew it and happened to be there and have a big shoulder to offer him.”

If you look at the top of your phone, you’ll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4G.1. But these symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive.
On March 30, 2019, Shanghai vice mayor Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X Smartphone.2.
About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download(下载) and upload data (数据) faster than ever before. But 5G won’t just bring faster mobile internet.3.
For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today’s self-driving test cars have one problem—lag(延迟). When the car “sees” an obstacle(障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions.4.With this kind of lag, the cars might hit each other because they don’t receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer.
5G could also be used to help the internet of things(IoT). IoT is a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. 5.For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically(自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside.
A.Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks.
B.5G will help us buy eggs quickly.
C.People can use it for many other things as well.
D.However, it takes time to send and receive this information.
E.The “G” is the “generation(代)” of your mobile network.
F.The IoT could be used in a lot of ways.
G.5G networks are much faster than 4G or 3G.
