13、If your pen broke at school today, what would you do? You would go to a shop and buy a new one. What if you could simply print out a real, working pen with your 3-D printer without leaving your room?
Ten years ago people could only see 3-D printing in science fiction movies. But now 3-D printing is here and it's bringing big changes.
Unlike normal printing that can only copy a 2-D picture with ink. 3-D printing can build almost anything made from material. The printer layers(分层) the material in different shapes to create the object you want to be copied.
The 3-D printer has been used to make many different things. People have made cups, cars and even an airplane with it. Doctors have been using 3-D printers for several years. People's nervous systems(系统) have been printed out in 3-D form in medical research. Some body parts have been printed and used in hospital. Several months ago, doctors used a 3-D printer to rebuild the face of a person who had a bad accident. In the future, it is expected that the printer will make human organs(器官)to save more lives.
However there are drawbacks to the printer. At the moment, printing can be quite slow and it's still rather expensive. The average(平均的) price of a household printer is around $1,700, not including the cost of the materials.
But as the technology develops, it shouldn't be long before disadvantages are improved. Only time will tell where this new technology will take us.
1．Where could people see 3-D printing ten years ago?
A．In large high school. B．In science fiction movies.
C．In digital camera shop. D．In hospital.
2．What can’t People make with a 3-D printer so far?
A．An airplane. B．A cup. C．The face of a person. D．Human organs.
3．What does the underlined word "drawbacks" mean?
A．不足B．趋势C．优点D．影响
4．Which of the following is TRUE?
A．The normal printer can build 3-D objects you want.
B．No nervous systems are printed out in 3-D form.
C．The 3-D printing can be cheaper and faster in the future.
D．There will be no drawbacks to the 3-D printing in the future.
5．What's the best title of the passage?
A．The advantages of 3-D printing B．The Disadvantages of 3-D Printing
C．The Changes Brought by 3-D Printing D．he Rapid Development of Science

15、People read books less often in these days. With the invention of radio, television and most recently, the Internet and computer games, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.
Books offer an outstanding wealth of learning and at a cheaper price than taking a course. Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people were.
Everything in today’s society requires reading. Imagine trying to do something as simpl e as reading the directions on a medicine bottle without good reading skills. Someone could not understand them and become very sick or even die.
Even something as simple as walking or driving through the city could become very dangerous without enough reading. Sometimes, you must be able to understand what is written and explain the meaning of them.
Some people say that reading is a waste of time and we can do better things with our time. Even if we don't read books, we still read every day, and reading books can strengthen (加强) our abilities. Reading is one of the greatest things we can do in our spare time.
With a book, you can travel anywhere you want, do anything you want, and talk to anyone you want. Reading is very important in our lives, no matter your age. So I think people should read books.
1．What activity is less popular these days than before?
A．Reading a book.
B．Listening to the radio.
C．Watching TV.
D．Surfing the Internet.
2．We can learn from the second paragraph that _______.
A．reading can improve your memory
B．reading can make you interesting and attractive
C．reading can make you smarter
D．reading can reduce stress
3．The underlined word "them" in the third paragraph refers to ________.
A．the books they are reading
B．the directions on a medicine bottle
C．the good reading skills
D．the words a doctor tells a sick person
4．Some people disagree to read books because they think _________.
A．walking in the city also needs reading skills
B．driving along the road is dangerous
C．reading books is very helpful for our abilities
D．reading books just wastes their time
5．The best title of the passage can be _________.
A．People Should Enjoy Themselves
B．How We Improve Reading Skills
C．Why People Should Read Books
D．What We Love Doing in Spare Time

16、Mr. and Mrs. Brown were going abroad for their holiday. They had a lovely dog called Blackie, but they could not take it abroad with them, so they had to look for a good place to leave it while they were away, and at last they found a place which looked after dogs very well while their owners were away. They left Blackie there just before they started
for their holiday.
At the end of their holiday, they came back to Sydney very late at night, and as they thought that the place where Blackie was staying might be closed at that late hour, they decided to wait until the next morning.
So the next morning Mr. Brown got into his car and drove off happily to meet Blackie. When he got home with the dog, he said to his wife, “Do you know, dear, I don’t think Blackie enjoyed his stay at that place very much. He barked(吠，叫) all the way home in the car as if he wanted to tell me something.”
Mrs. Brown looked at the dog carefully and then answered, “You are quite right, dear. He was certainly trying to tell
you s omething. But he wasn’t trying to tell you that he hadn’t enjoyed his stay at that place. He was only trying to tell you that you were bringing the wrong dog home.”
1．（小题1）Mr. and Mrs. Brown wouldn’t take Blackie to go abroad because __________.

17、 Artificial intelligence (AI, 人工智能) can help us make phone calls. It can guide us to where we want to go. It can play games. And now, AI can do even more things.
Researchers from Microsoft have created the first machine translation system that can translate news articles from Chinese to English, Business Standard reported.
According to Microsoft's official website, researchers tested the system by asking it to translate hundreds of sentences taken from news stories. Then, language experts compared the results to two translations that were done by humans. The experts concluded that the system's translations were as good as the human translations.
Machine translation is always challenging. This is partly because different words can be used to express the same meaning. It can be hard to say which word is more “correct”.
Experts used several me thods to improve the system's translation abilities. “Much of our research is really inspired (得到启发) by how we humans do things,” lead researcher Liu Tieyan said.One method is called dual learning. In this method, the system translates every sentence from Chinese to English, as well as translates the sentences back from English into Chinese. This way, the system can improve itself and learn from its own mistakes. This is similar to what humans do to make sure their translations are accurate (准确的).
Another method makes use of deliberation networks. The researchers taught the system to repeat the process of translating the same sentence over and over. Gradually, the system can improve the quality of its translations. This is
similar to how people revise their own writing by going through it again and again.
1．Microsoft created a system that can _____.
A．make phone calls B．give people directions
C．play games with people D．translate news articles
2．What did the experts say about the system's translations?
A．They were not accurate.
B．They were as good as human translations.
C．They were better than human translations.
D．It's hard to tell whether the translations were correct.
3．Dual learning trains the system to translate _____.
A．more quickly B．different sentences
C．more accurately D．the same sentence repeatedly
4．What is the main idea of the story?
A．What artificial intelligence can do for us.
B．How sentences are translated from Chinese to English.
C．How the machine translation system was developed.
D．Why Microsoft created a machine translation system.

18、
I bought a jasmine plant for my office. When I bought it, I was told it would bloom（开花）and the sweet smell would fill my office. I had the plant for two months, and every day I looked at it, but there weren't any flowers or pleasant smell. I was not happy, so I gave the plant to my friend Linda.
One day, another friend Mary called and invited me to her office. When I walked in, her jasmine flowers surprised me. I
reached out to touch the flowers. Mary cut some and gave them to me. I couldn't help smelling them. Surrounded by the sweet smell of only a handful of these flowers, I suddenly understood something.
Mary bought her plant the same time I did. It took a year for her jasmine to bloom. I was so impatient for mine to bloom; regretfully, I gave it away.
In a way my life is like the jasmine plant. I need to be patient and let things happen.
Last Sunday Linda told me that she was going abroad the next week. Before she left, she returned the plant to me. This time I am going to wait. I have learned that when we want something in our life, we have to be patient. I am slowly learning to have that patience to wait for my jasmine to bloom.
1．Before she gave the jasmine away, the writer had it for .
A．one day B．one year C . two weeks C．two months
2．When the writer saw Mary's jasmine, she felt____________ .
A．unhappy B．peaceful C．hopeful D．surprised
3．What has the writer learned from her experience?
A．Patience is needed in life.

19、In our school life，we should prepare well for each lesson. It’s important for us to form a habit of thinking. In class，we must pay attention to listening to our teachers and actively answer questions. After class，we should go over what we have learned first and then finish our homework on our own.
In our daily life，we ought to have a healthy lifestyle. We should go to bed early and get up early. It’s good for us to eat more vegetables. Moreover，we need to exercise a lot. And we should learn to make good use of our time.
In a word，good habits can help us learn things better and improve our skills. We can learn to control ourselves if we have good habits. I think good habits are really good for our mind and body.。
