What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.
When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. The advantages are obvious. This technology would allow total freedom of movement. We could fly at 480 km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic control. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be air traffic jam. Another big problem is mechanical failure. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality.
Three-dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities. 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic.
They build the object layer by layer until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop, the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that such equipment
will be extremely expensive.
So in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.
（1）What is the passage mainly about?
A. Environmental protection.
B. The world of tomorrow.
C. Advantages of technology.
（2）What do we learn from the passage?
A. Some people think technology development may bring new problems
B. 3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap.
C. The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular.
（3）What is the correct structure of the passage? （P1=Paragraph1）
A. B. C.
（4）What does the underlined word "they" refer to?
A. Car companies.
B. 3D print.
C. Body parts.
（5）We can infer that the writer ________ about the future life with technology.
A. doesn't care

C. feels disappointed

Then Alice saw a small glass table. There was a little golden key on it. She picked it and put it in all the locks on the doors but it didn't open any of them. She moved a curtain on one of the walls and discovered another door, a very small one. She put the key in the lock. It was exactly the right size! She opened the door and looked through it. At the end of a low passage she saw a beautiful garden. It was full of brightly coloured flowers and fountains.
"Oh, how beautiful!" she said. "I'd love to go there but I'm too big to get through the door."
She walked back to the table. There was a bottle on it now.

After a while she said, "Alice! Stop crying! Crying doesn't help! Dry your tears immediately!"
When she looked at the table again, she saw a small glass box under it. She picked it up and opened it. There was a small cake inside. It had the words "EAT ME" on it. She put a small piece of it in her mouth.
"If I grow bigger I can reach the key," she thought. "And if I grow smaller I can go under the door."
