In 1987 a small company named Huawei was started in Shenzhen.After more than 30 years of development，the company has now beaten Apple and become the world's second largest maker of smartphones.It has also become the world's supplier （供应者） of 5 G.In China and even in the world，Huawei is a wonder.Although it started producing mobile phones not many years ago，it has become one of the most famous phone companies.
But recently，Huawei faces some difficulties.The US government made a law to stop its sales in America.American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government.At the same time，the US government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei.They believed that Huawei's business would be hurt this way.
"We have never received such a request from the Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other systems to collect information，" Ren Zhengfei，Huawei's president said. "The law would have little effect on our company.Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems，" Ren added.
In an interview several years ago，Ren Zhengfei said， "I started Huawei with only £4000 at the beginning，but now it has become a 100 billion company.The experience was not as romantic as you imagine."
Facing the law of the US，Huawei is growing.Huawei's smartphone sales around the world rose 50 percent compared with a year earlier in the first three months of 2019.At the same time，sales from both Samsung and Apple fell.So far Huawei has grown into the world's largest telecommunication equipment supplier （供应商），selling in 170 countries.It may beat Samsung as the largest smartphone maker in the near future.

Take a look at the label(标签) on almost any bottle of milk and you may see the word PASTEURIZED. What does that mean? Let’s find out by meeting Louis Pasteur.
Louis Pasteur was born in 1822 in a little town in France. As he grew up, he loved to paint. He loved to look at the world around him. When he went to college in Paris, he showed interest in looking through a microscope. A microscope makes things look a lot bigger; it lets you see things you can’t see just with your eyes. Looking through a microscope, Pasteur found a living world in a drop of water. He saw and drew pictures of the small living things -- he called them “microbes” or “germs”-- that crowded in a drop of water.
One day a winemaker came into the lab, hoping that someone could help him with his problem. “Sometimes my wine tastes delicious, but sometimes terrible,” he said to Pasteur. “Can you help me find out why?”
Pasteur put some drops of the wine under the microscope. He noticed that the terrible wine had some unusual germs. If he killed these germs, maybe he could keep the wine from turning terrible. He tried with different ways to kill the germs. In the end he found heating (加热) the wine seemed to work best. The winemaker tried it, and every bottle of wine tasted good.
Pasteur’s idea worked for other people, too. When farmers heated milk, it didn’t turn bad so quickly. When breweries heated beer, it tasted better. People called it “pasteurization” ---heating a liquid to kill bad germs. Aren’t you glad that the milk you drink has been pasteurized? The Chinese meaning for the word “microbes” is____.
| A．病毒 | B．真菌 | C．支原体 | D．微生物 |
