28、 standard”与设空后的“new WiFi standard”对应，再结合常识和语境可知答案选E项。3A根据前一句可知，根据WiFi联盟的说法，WiFi是一个商标术语，用来描述基于IEEE无线通信标准802.11的设备或技术，下文表明WiFi联盟聘请了营销公司Interbrand为它起了一个短一点的名字：WiFi；由此可知，上文的那个名字又长又拗口。故A项符合语境。mouthful意为“又长又拗口的词(或短语)”。4D根据下文中的“The rumor that”和“Some members didnt understand”可推知，人们对于WiFi是什么这个问题还有一些争议，故选D。5G

29、根据设空后一句可知，作者建议不要混淆两者；设空前两句又表述该联盟的标签带来了混淆。由此可知，G项“而且，虽然该联盟去除了这个标签，但它带来的困惑到现在仍然存在”符合语境。.应用文写作假设你是李华，你的英国朋友Harry写信向你了解网络对中国学生学习方式的影响。请根据以下提示，给他写封回信。1网络的发展给中国学生带来了很多新的学习方式；2学习方式的变化表现在课程选择方式、教学方式、作业布置等方面；3你的感想。注意：1.词数80左右；2可以适当增加一些细节，使文章内容通顺连贯；3开头和结尾已为你写好，不计入总词数。Dear Harry，Im glad to receive your letter.
