5G工作站繼續迅速發展

China leads the world in 5G base stations， users and penetration rates， significantly boosting its digital economy， said experts and officials， who also emphasized the potential of integrating 5G terminals with AI technology for further growth.

Looking ahead， 5G development will require further efforts to innovate technologies and applications in intelligent 5G， 5G broadband， 5G RedCap or reduced capability， and proactive adaptation， they said.

China had built a total of 3.748 million 5G base stations， with more than 26 stations per 10，000 people， by the end of April， said the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Over 30，000 5G private networks for industries have been established， it said.

The China Academy of Information and Communications Technology （CAICT） estimated that over the past five years， 5G commercialization in China has directly generated approximately 5.6 trillion yuan （$772 billion） in economic output and indirectly driven around 14 trillion yuan in output， significantly contributing to high-quality economic and social development.

Hu Jianbo， deputy head of the CAICT， said that 5G has boosted the development of various industries. Hu highlighted that 5G has penetrated 74 of the 97 major sectors of the national economy， with an industry penetration rate over 76 percent.

He also mentioned that Chinese companies have maintained a leading position in the global 5G base station equipment market for five consecutive years， with a global market share of 55 percent and sales in over 75 countries and regions. China’s shipments of 5G phones accounted for 50 percent of the global total by April.

Wu Hequan， an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering， pointed to the significant potential in integrating 5G terminals with AI technology. The AI integration of 5G terminals， including smartphones， personal computers， virtual reality devices and industrial modules， is progressing toward embedding large models. One example is Apple’s partnership with OpenAI’s ChatGPT， announced this week， to boost its voice assistance and operating system.

1.D。解析：細節理解題。材料第三段的第一句提到“中國共建設了374.8萬個5G基站，每1萬人擁有超過26個5G基站”，由此可知平均大約每380人擁有1個5G基站，故選D。

2.A。解析：詞義猜測題。材料第五段畫線詞所在的句子的大意為“胡強調，5G 已經滲透到國民經濟97個主要部門中的74個，行業滲透率超過76% ”。由此可知，“penetrated”應有“滲入、滲透”之意。A選項“進入”與材料內容相符，故選A。

3.C。解析：推理判斷題。材料第四段主要講述5G 商業化所產生的國內經濟效益，材料第五段主要講述5G在國內各行各業中所起的作用。綜合起來看，這兩段講述的是5G發展在國內所帶來的益處，故選C。

4.B。解析：觀點態度題。材料最后一段的第一句提到“中國工程院院士吳和全認為5G終端與人工智能技術相結合具有巨大潛力”，B選項“有希望的、有前途的”與材料內容相符，故選B。
