The beginnings of the Globe Theatre

    The Globe Theatre is one of the most well-known theatres in the world. In 1996, it was voted for the “best attraction in Europe”. However, this version of the Globe, completed in the mid-1990s with funds from the Shakespeare Globe Playhouse Trust, is not the original Globe built in the 1500s.

    During the 16th century, plays were popular entertainment among all kinds of people from wealthy nobles to the working class.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}Actors performed in small hotels throughout the countryside and in London. James Burbage, an actor and painter, build the first public playhouse in England called The Theatre because it was the first ever built in London. Now the audience could come to the actors rather than the other way around,{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    When Burbage died, his sons Cuthbert and Richard, took over The Theatre. The Land, however, on which the playhouse was built was not owned by Burbage.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} The actors decided they would build their own theatre. They rented land near another theatre, The Rose, and used wood from The Theatre to build the first Globe Theatre. It was here that Shakespeare's famous plays were performed{#blank#}4{#/blank#} The actors' love for the Globe was so strong that when it burned down in 1613, they pooled their own money to rebuilt it, making it even better than before with beautiful decorations and details adorning(装饰) the stage{#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. The Theatre was a huge success.

B. This theatre could hold several thousand people!

C. Queen Elizabeth I of England had a great love for plays.

D. When one enters the Globe Theatre ，one is in the greatest theater.

E. A man named Giles Allen owned the land and didn't want to rent the land to them.

F. Success was immediate and the Globe Theatre was a favorite of audiences and actors alike.

G. Even though this version of the Globe Theatre didn't survive through the century, its influence lives on.

    In our hyper-technological age, the way we interact with others face-to-face tells others how well we work with others, as well as our ability to maintain good interpersonal relations.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}Here are five job interview mistakes that millennials (千禧一代)often make, so you can be sure not to make them too.

    Overusing the word “Like”

    Dressing inappropriately

    Although work attire now tends more toward casual than a three-piece business suit, it's still incredibly unprofessional to show up in clothing that's clearly not suitable for the office.

    Talking too proudly

    In a generation that values the individual above anything else, it can feel almost like second nature to talk too much about oneself.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    A preliminary Google search regarding the company you want to work for takes no more than 5 minutes, but the knowledge goes a long way.

To help you understand what 5G is, and what it means to you, we've put together a handy guide here.

What is 5G?

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}At its most basic level, 5G will be used to make calls, send texts, and to simply get online. But it's going to be significantly faster than previous generations, and could open the door up to a range of exciting new uses.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

5G will use new higher radio frequencies to send out data, which are less cluttered(挤了)and carry information much faster. While these higher bands are faster, they don't carry information as far. That's to say, smaller multiple input and output antennas (天线)will be used—promoting both signals and capacity（容量）.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

Why is it better than 4G?

5G is expected to be faster than 4G, with some firms claiming it could be as much as 100 times quicker. The fastest 4G networks can deliver peak download speeds of around 300 Mbit/s. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}In real life, this could allow you to download a full HD film in less than 10 seconds!

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} It means there will be very little—if any—delay when you carry out tasks on a device. While this will help improve things like gaming experiences, it could also pave the way for safer self-driving cars—in which even a short delay could be life-saving.

Finally, 5G will have a larger capacity, meaning networks will be able to deal with several apps at once. Generally, this should mean that devices have a faster, more stable connection.

A. How does 5G work?

B. How will 5G affect you?

C. 5G is also expected to have a lower latency （潜在因素）.

D. 5G is short for "5th generation mobile network."

E. In comparison, 5G could offer download speeds of over 1 Gb/s.

F. Therefore, the similarity between 5G and 4G technology is huge.

G. This means 5G will support up to 1,000 more devices per meter than 4G.

Learning how to apologize is similar to learning any new behavior. It may feel awkward and may not be polished at first {#blank#}1{#/blank#} There are several tips that will help you as you learn how to apologize.

First of all, wait until the right time and you are in the right place. Although public apology is often appropriate, discretion（谨慎）should be used. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Remember, you will be raising a topic that may recall a bad experience or bad feelings. Be respectful as you approach this task.

Be direct and brief in your approach. Acknowledge the fact that injury has occurred and then take responsibility for what happened. Be sincere in expressing your regret and demonstrate your willingness to take ownership of the situation. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}.

Even if you follow these steps, be prepared for rejection. Sometimes, the person apologizing has an expectation that the apology will lead to immediate forgiveness and acceptance. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you think of the offense（冒犯）as an emotional bruise（瘀伤）, think of the healing process as the color changes we see as a bruise heals.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Knowing when to keep one's mouth shut is a virtue. Keeping quiet may be very difficult, as post-apology listening is not easy. We may hear unpleasant observations from another about our own shortcomings. We may hear the expression of anger. One of the ways we let others know we are truly responsible and accountable for our mistakes is by listening to the other party pour out the feelings associated with our actions.

A. Forgiveness and acceptance may take time.

B. To give or receive a good apology is an art.

C. But with practice, everyone can learn to do it.

D. Listening to the response to our apologies is important.

E. Most apologies can and should happen in a private setting.

F. In other words, avoid excuses and offer to repair the damage.

G. Taking responsibility doesn't mean accepting blame for everything.
