In the grass, a baby duck was hatched (孵化) out in a college biology lab with a backward left foot. At the time, it probably wouldn’t have survived, if Mike Gary didn’t recommend a proper operation to cut off that bad foot.
Months after the healing process, engineers at Novacopy Company produced a 3D printed model that would be used to create a prosthetic (修复的) foot for the duck. Considering that ABS plastics were not flexible enough for this type of exercise, the Novacopy company made a three-dimensionally modeled foot made of silicone, with the hope to create a permanent prosthesis(假肢) for the duck.
It took just 13 hours to produce. This 3D prosthesis demonstrated the 3D technologies can be used not only for human application, but also in foreign subjects such as animals and other medical treatments.1. Where was the baby duck hatched out?回答
A. In a college biology lab.
2. What was wrong with the baby duck?回答
B. It was born with a backward left foot.
C. Mike Gary cut off that bad foot.
3. Could ABS plastics be used to produce a 3D printed model that would be used to create a prosthetic foot for the duck?回答
A. No, because ABS plastics were not flexible enough.
4. How long did it take to create a permanent prosthesis for the duck?回答
B. 13 hours.
5. What did the last sentence of this passage indicate?回答
C. 3D technologies can be used to human, animals and other medical treatments.

salt in fresh water used on coastal farms. As a result farmers are increasingly 回答A unable
to use fields close to the sea.
Scientists call this process “salinization” which means a mixture of salt and water. Salinization is reducing the world’s irrigated lands 回答B by
1 to 2 percent every year.
But a farmer in the Netherlands is now using a mixture of sea and fresh water to grow healthy and tasty vegetables. Marc Van started with an 回答C experiment
. “We put in a lot of plants in the fields and then we put in, put them in fresh water and in sea water and all the varieties between it, and then we see which variety is surviving and which variety is 回答C dying
.”

Wide World of Robots
Engineers who build and program robots have fascinating jobs. These researchers tinker (修补) with machines in the lab and write computer software to control these devices. "They're the best toys out there," says Howle Choset at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Choset is a roboticist, a person who designs, builds or programs robots.
When Choset was a kid, he was interested in anything that moved--cars, trains, animals. He put motors on Tinkertoy cars to make them move. Later, in high school, he built mobile robots similar to small cars.
Hoping to continue working on robots, he studied computer science in college. But when he got to graduate school at the Califomia Institute of Technology in Pasadena, Choset's labmates were working on something even cooler than remotely controlled cars: robotic snakes. Some robots can move only forward, backward, left and right. But snakes can twist (扭曲 ) in many directions and travel over a lot of different types of terrain (地形) . "Snakes are far more interesting than the cars," Choset concluded.
After he started working at Carnegie Mellon, Choset and his colleagues there bagan developing their own snake robots. Choset's team programmed robots to perform the same movements as real snakes, such as sliding and inching forward. The robots also moved in ways that snakes usually don't, such as rolling.
Choset's snake robots could crawl (爬行) through the grass, swim in a pond and even climb a flagpole.
But Choset wondered if his snakes might be useful for medicine as well. For some heart surgeries, the doctor has to open a patient's chest, cutting through the breastbone. Recovering from these surgeries can be very painful. What if the doctor could perform the operation by instead making a small hole in the body and sending in a thin robotic snake?
Choset teamed up with Marco Zenati, a heart surgeon now at Harvard Medical School, to investigate the idea. Zenati practiced using the robot on a plastic model of the chest and they tested the robot in pigs.
A company called Medrobotics in Boston is now adapting the technology to surgeries on people.
Even after 15 years of working with his team's creations, "I still don't get bored of watching the motion of my robots," Choset says.
1. Choset began to build robots in high school.回答T
2. Snake robots could move in only four directions.回答F
3. Choset didn't begin developing his own snake robots until he started working at Carnegie Mellon.回答T
4. Zenati tested the robot on people after using it in pigs.回答F
5. The robotic technology for surgeries on people has brought a handsome profit to Medrobotics.回答F

The Company Leading the Future of Farming
Here's a crazy idea: Combine bioprinting and tissue engineering to "print" animal products and tackle some of the planet's biggest problems. Animal farming, after all, accounts for about half of all human-caused greenhouse gases, taking place on one-third of the available, non-frozen land on Earth. All to feed people's appetites for 300 million tons of meat a year.
Modern Meadow is a Missouri-based startup that engineers tissues to create lab-grown edible meat, in a process that eliminates many of the negative environment effects associated with traditional livestock practices.
The company claims that by carefully layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure, in-vitro meat production becomes feasible. It’s set a short-term goal of printing a sliver of meat around two centimeters by one centimeter, and less than half a millimeter thick, which is edible.
The company explains in a submission to the United States Department of Agriculture: “The technology has several advantages in comparison to earlier attempts to engineer meat in vitro. The bio-ink particles can be reproducibly prepared with mixtures of cells of different type. Printing ensures consistent shape, while post-printing structure formation and maturation in the bioreactor facilitates conditioning.”
However, it admits that the road ahead is strewn with difficulties. “The consumer acceptance of such products may not be without challenges. We expect it will first appeal to culinary early-adopter consumers and the segment of the vegetarian community that rejects meat for ethical reasons. With reduction in price, it can reach the masses with religious restrictions on meat consumption (people restricted to Hindu, Kosher, Halal diets) and finally populations with limited access to safe meat production.”
Whatever the final outcome, lab-grown edible meat is no longer in the realm of science fiction. It is coming.
1. Animal farming is responsible for the occurrence of greenhouse gases.回答T
2. Modern Meadow is a newly-started business which aims to make profits by producing lab-grown edible meat.回答T
3. The method Modern Meadow adopted to produce in-virto meat is by layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure.回答T
4. There is no meat engineered outside living bodies before.回答F
5. This lab-grown meat has already widely received by the masses.回答F

Baidu, China's leading search engine company, has unveiled its own eyewear called Baidu Eye. It is said to be a different product from Google Glass in terms of functionality.
The company demonstrated a working prototype on September 3 at its annual Technology Innovation Conference in Beijing. It bears a similarity to Google Glass, but it has no screen. Instead, the device uses a camera to scan objects, and focuses on analyzing information around its user and beaming that to a smartphone.
Baidu says the device is designed to support image search. The company's CEO Robin Li believes in five years' time, people will get used to searching by image and audio rather than text. Li has given an example of how one can take advantage of Baidu Eye, "If you are in a shopping mall and come across a woman whose skirt looks really attractive, you take a photo of her skirt using Baidu Eye, and you'll get to know where to buy one for yourself."
According to Kaiser Kuo, Baidu's director of international communications, Baidu Eye can also recognize voice and gesture, "You can use voice commands, or gesture commands - like expanding to zoom, or circling an object in your field of view with your finger."
Baidu is yet to announce a release date or marketing plans for Baidu Eye.

Roby Mini is just 40 centimeters tall, has a large round screen for a head and has been designed to help senior citizens living alone.
Manufactured by robotics company Shanghai PT Info, the brightly colored robot, which costs 5,000 yuan ($790), was launched on Aug 14 to help entertain and monitor elderly people.
In Shanghai last year, the number of registered residents at least 60 years old was 4 million. That was nearly 30 percent of the population. By 2018, the figure is projected to rise to 5 million.
With many living alone, robots such as Roby Mini can help play a crucial role in caring for the elderly. "It will change the way people interact with digital products," Hong says.
Founded in May, Shanghai PT Info had already done the groundwork. In fact, the research team spent three years developing the speech recognition system before the firm was officially launched.
With 360-degree wheels hidden under its body, Roby Mini can follow a person through face recognition and strike up a conversation, tell jokes or provide information.
The robot also works as a computer terminal, supplying weather information, ordering groceries online and even booking taxis. Roby Mini can be connected to other gadgets as well, such as smart wristbands or magnetic devices on doors.
Roby Mini can also connect an elderly owner to a doctor through its high-definition screen.Already Shanghai PT Info is talking to three community hospitals in Shanghai's Minhang district. Since the robot is linked to the Internet, it can support long-distance audio and video calls.
Mass production started this month and Shanghai PT Info plans to manufacture 200,000 units this year.
But the future is not easy for Shanghai PT Info. Earlier this year, Flyingwings Intelligent Robot Technology (Shanghai) introduced a machine with sensors that will ring an alarm when an elderly person falls down.Tianjin ShangjiuShengyuan Technology Group also developed a robot for seniors in 2014. Owners can turn on the lights and air-conditioning units by pressing buttons on the machine.It can also remind elderly owners to take pills, and inform them of hospital checkups and family birthdays.

Passage 1 (教材课文原文)
With a teeny waist, exaggerated breasts, icy-blue eyes, 21-year-old Valeria says she is the real natural deal. A real-life Barbie, that is.
That’s what she claims anyway, but many people doubt to her claims. Whether she underwent plastic surgery or uses Photoshop remains unclear. On her blog, the model notes that she is the most famous woman on the Russian Internet because of her doll-like appeal. Hundreds of photos on her Facebook page show a wide-eyed, nearly fake-looking Valeria posing in a variety of outfits.
The model did not return requests for comment. If Photoshop is not a factor in getting Valeria’s look, she likely underwent a barrage of plastic surgery. The president of American Society of Plastic Surgeons （ASPS）said, plastic surgery should never be used to transform oneself into a favorite celebrity or, in this case, a play toy. He also warns patients to keep in mind that plastic surgery is real surgery with real risks, just as with any operation, so the decision should not be taken lightly.
1. Valeria thinks that she is a real-life Barbie.回答 T
2. Valeria used to accept plastic surgery.回答F
3. Valeria writes that she is the most famous woman on the Russian Internet because she posts a lot of pictures on her blog..回答F
4. The author thinks Valeria neither Photoshops her, nor accepts a series of plastic surgery.回答F
5. The president of ASPS thinks that plastic surgery is of risks.回答T

I am very happy to share my story about breast enlargement in Thailand. Anyone who is not sure about breast enlargement should read this story first.
Firstly, I was amazed at the level of care I received at the Thailand private hospital. It was like being in a luxury hotel. The nursing staffs were also better than those who I have ever met in all my years in America. Not only were they professional, but kinder and more patient than Western nurses.
The hospital food was excellent, so I was able to choose from a large and varied Menu. In my private room, there was cable T. V., a fridge, a phone, and impressive views of Bangkok(曼谷). My Translator was able to communicate with me, and the plastic surgeons arranged the whole operation without me lifting a finger.
The operation cost me a third of the price of the U. K. With the low cost of the air tickets and a holiday, it worked out at about half UK's price, because the cost in Thailand is so cheap.
Combining a plastic surgery with a holiday in an amazing place is an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived in Bangkok airport, I felt relaxed and welcomed by the Plastic Surgery & Holiday team, it made me feel that I had friends here already.
1. Where did the author have her breast-enlargement operation?回答
A. In Thailand.
B. In America.
C. In U. K.
2. Was the author satisfied with the nursing staffs for her?回答
A. No, because they were no better than America nurses.
B. Yes, because they were more patient than Western nurses.
C. No, because the care was very poor.
3. Which of the following statement is TRUE?回答
A. The author was content with the food in the hospital.
B. When the author was in the hospital, she lived in a public room.
C. There was cable T. V., a bridge and a phone in the author’s room.
4. What does the underlined phrase lifting a finger mean in paragraph three?回答
A. Doing something with only one finger.
B. Helping with something.
C. Carrying something.
5. Why did the author think her experience unforgettable?回答
A. Because she had an operation there.
B. Because she was satisfied with everything there.
C. Because she was satisfied with the service and price there.

"The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly, making some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block uneven," reported ARN (Australian Radio Network) to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer. But the architects remain optimistic. The first few printed blocks are meant to be test pieces as they improve the process.
It takes about a week to print a 3-meter high block right now. The project's leaders hope to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a year, and the entire house in less than 3 years.
Ultimately, 3D Print Canal House is an architectural research project, one that is very much being conducted in the public eye: you can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site for 2.50 Euros.
The top floors will become more ornate, for example, as newer techniques are incorporated. They'll explore the possibilities of 3D printing, like the honeycomb walls or an entire room recycled, redesigned, and built anew. Nobody's going to move into a 3D printed house soon, but, if anyone ever does, something might be learned from this experiment by the canal.
1. According to the passage, the 3D printer can type with plastic evenly.回答F
2. This 3D printer printed some blocks to test its work.回答T
3. The project's leaders will finish the entire house in less than 3 years.回答F
4. 3D Print Canal House is printed to live.回答F

According to experts, the advantage of modified food is that it helps in preventing the occurrence of allergies and also has a long shelf life. However, a major portion of the population is against the consumption of genetically modified food and is concerned about its disadvantages. If you are also confused about the consumption of genetically modified food, read through the pros and cons given below and decide for yourself.
Advantages of Genetically Modified Foods
●One of the most prominent advantages of genetically modified food is that it helps in controlling the occurrence of certain diseases. Certain foods cause allergy to people. Their genetic modification alters the DNA system of these foods, thereby making them non-allergic.
●Another major advantage of such type of foods is that they grow faster than their traditionally grown counterparts. As a result, there is greater productivity and more food.
●A person need not bother about any additional costs, such as buying chemicals and pesticides, when it comes to genetically engineered food. The food is naturally pest-resistant.
●Farming these foods can be a great way to fight world hunger. Since these crops grow faster or more effectively, increased production would help countries wherein crops may not normally prosper because of less than desirable environmental conditions.
●The increased shelf life of these food products helps in reducing the quantity of rotten food.
Disadvantages of Genetically Modified Foods
●The biggest disadvantage of genetically modified food is that they have harmful effects on the human body. The consumption of these genetically engineered foods can lead to development of diseases that are immune to antibiotics.
●Chances of developing cancer are high in people who regularly consume engineered food.
●Since it is an unnatural way of producing foods, there is an increased health hazard such as allergens, transfer of antibiotic resistance markers and unknown effects.
●Since the production of engineered food involves infusing animal genes in the crops and tampering with nature, it might not be good for consumption in the long run.
1. How does genetically modified food control the occurrence of certain diseases?回答
A. By cross-pollinating.
B. By conventional crossbreeding.
C. By altering the DNA system of these foods.
2. Do farmers need to buy any chemicals and pesticides if they plant genetically modified food?回答
A. Yes, they need to. Because the food is not resist to pests.
B. No, they don’t need to. Because the food is naturally pest-resistant.
C. No, they don’t need to. Because the chemicals and pesticides are provided by the government.
3. Which statement is not the advantage of genetically modified food?回答
A. It may have harmful effects on human body.
B. Genetically modified food grows faster than their traditionally grown counterparts.
C. Farming genetically modified food can help fight world hunger.
4. What would happen to a person if he regularly consume genetically modified food?回答
A. He would get cold.
B. He would lose some weight.
C. He would have cancer.
5. Which title is the best for this passage?回答
A. Can genetically modified foods combat world hunger?
B. Genetically modified mood: our answer is no
C. Genetically modified foods: pros and cons

The Company Leading the Future of Farming
Here's a crazy idea: Combine bioprinting and tissue engineering to "print" animal products and tackle some of the planet's biggest problems. Animal farming, after all, accounts for about half of all human-caused greenhouse gases, taking place on one-third of the available, non-frozen land on Earth. All to feed people's appetites for 300 million tons of meat a year.
Modern Meadow is a Missouri-based startup that engineers tissues to create lab-grown edible meat, in a process that eliminates many of the negative environment effects associated with traditional livestock practices.
The company claims that by carefully layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure, in-vitro meat production becomes feasible. It’s set a short-term goal of printing a sliver of meat around two centimeters by one centimeter, and less than half a millimeter thick, which is edible.
The company explains in a submission to the United States Department of Agriculture: “The technology has several advantages in comparison to earlier attempts to engineer meat in vitro. The bio-ink particles can be reproducibly prepared with mixtures of cells of different type. Printing ensures consistent shape, while post-printing structure formation and maturation in the bioreactor facilitates conditioning.”
However, it admits that the road ahead is strewn with difficulties. “The consumer acceptance of such products may not be without challenges. We expect it will first appeal to culinary early-adopter consumers and the segment of the vegetarian community that rejects meat for ethical reasons. With reduction in price, it can reach the masses with religious restrictions on meat consumption (people restricted to Hindu, Kosher, Halal diets) and finally populations with limited access to safe meat production.”
Whatever the final outcome, lab-grown edible meat is no longer in the realm of science fiction. It is coming.
1. Animal farming is responsible for the occurrence of greenhouse gases.回答
2. Modern Meadow is a newly-started business which aims to make profits by producing lab-grown edible meat.回答
3. The method Modern Meadow adopted to produce in-virto meat is by layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure.回答
4. There is no meat engineered outside living bodies before.回答
5. This lab-grown meat has already widely received by the masses.回答

解析：
1. Carry away意为“大为激动，忘形”， carry on表示“开展，从事”，carry through表示“达到，完成”。该句是说今日园丁和其它宇航员将离开，替代的宇航员也准备就位开展工作。比较这几个词组的意思，选项B最合适。
2. Functional表示“功能性的，实用的”，nonfunctional表示“无功能的”，conjunctional表示“连结的，连接词的”。前句提到，园丁穿着太空服，不太时髦但…，三个词中，只有A符合题意。
3. 三个选项都说得通，但为了与上句one chapter is closing相对应，选项C无疑是最恰当的答案。
4. 要表达“让某人做某事”，应用make + 宾语+ 不带to 的不定式，即make sb do sth, 但当改成被动时，需要加to, 即be made to do sth. 并没有make sb doing sth这种说法，所以答案是C。
5. Turn up表示“（情况）突然好转；（机会）突然出现”，turn out表示“关掉，熄灭(电灯、煤气等) ”，turn down表示“拒绝（提议或请求）”。根据上下文，宇航员们准备离开，后文又提到在太空不应惧怕黑暗，因此该空应该选择B。
