21、 There’s a new achievement in 3D printing that’s beginning to come into focus: food. Recent development has made possible machines that print, cook, and serve foods on a mass scale(大规模地). And the industry isn’t stopping there.
Food production
With a 3D printer, a cook can print complicated chocolate sculptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake. Not everybody can do that—it takes years of experience, but a printer makes it easy. A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to “re-create forms and pieces” of food that are “exactly the same”, freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In another restaurant, all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed, rather than farm to table.
Nutrition
Future 3D food printers could make processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University, said, “Food printing could allow consumers(消费者) to print food with customized(定制的) nutritional content, like vitamins. So instead of eating a piece of yesterday’s bread from the supermarket, you’d eat something baked just for you on demand.”
Challenges
Despite recent advancements in 3D food printing, the industry has many challenges to overcome. Currently, most ingredients (烹饪原料) must be changed to a paste（糊状物）before a printer can use them, and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D food printers now are limited to dry ingredients, because meat and milk products may easily go bad. Some experts are doubtful about 3D food printers, believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-end restaurants.
【1】What do we know about 3D printing and food ?
A.The 3D printing industry is beginning to focus on food.
B.With further development, it’s possible to use the 3D printing technology to print food.
C.People have made possible 3D food printers.
D.The 3D printing and food have developed into a perfect industry.
【2】What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?
A.It helps cooks to create new dishes.
B.It saves time and effort in cooking.
C.It improves the cooking conditions.
D.It contributes to restaurant decorations.
【3】According to Paragraph 3, 3D-printed food .
A.is more available to consumers
B.can meet personal nutritional needs
C.is more tasty than food in supermarkets
D.can keep all the nutrition in food
【4】What is the main challenge that prevents 3D food printing from spreading widely?
A.The printing process is complicated.
B.3D food printers are too expensive.
C.Food materials have to be dry.
D.Some experts doubt 3D food printing.

23、 A company testing driverless cars has received permission from the state of California to operate the vehicles without human drivers. The tests will be carried out by Cruise, the self-driving car company owned by General Motors.
Cruise reported last week that it got a permit from the California Department of Motor Vehicles to let the self-driving cars travel on their own. The company plans to have them operating in San Francisco by the end of this year. Cruise is still just testing its self-driving vehicles. But it plans to offer ride-sharing services in major cities across the United States in the future.
Until now, testing has only been carved out with human backup drivers in all Cruise vehicles. Rules required the backup drivers to be inside the cars and ready to take control of the vehicles if necessary. Cruise has completed enough testing to feel that it is now ready to safely operate the cars without humans, said company spokesman Ray Wert. Wert said that Cruise would go neighborhood-by-neighborhood in San Francisco before spreading the driverless car to the whole city.
The permission in California followed a similar decision in Arizona. Arizona state officials approved a request by Waymo, a company owned by Google’s parent company Alphabet Inc., to open its ride-sharing service to the public in vehicles without human drivers. The service was launched last week in the city of Phoenix. Progress toward driverless vehicles slowed after one such vehicle hit a passer-by during a test in Tempe, Arizona, in 2018. That vehicle was operated by Uber Technologies.
Steven Shladover is a research engineer at the University of California, Berkeley. He has studied self-driving for 40 years. Shladover said that although Cruise and Waymo program their vehicles to drive more conservatively than humans, both still need to progress safely. He noted that Cruise will first use its vehicles in easier areas in San Francisco before sending them into complex traffic situations.
【1】What has Cruise done until now?
A.It has done driverless car testing in other states.
B.It has helped other companies test their self-driving cars.
C.It has completed some testing with human drivers.
D.It has offered ride-sharing services using self-driving cars.
【2】What caused the testing of self-driving cars to slow down?
A.Taxi drivers’ fear of losing their jobs.
B.The high cost of doing it in big cities.
C.An accident caused by a self-driving vehicle.
D.The small number of companies taking part in it.
【3】Which of the following does Steven Shladover agree with?
A.Self-driving vehicles shouldn’t go without safety.
B.Self-driving vehicles drive less carefully than humans.
C.Self-driving vehicles can’t get into complex traffic situations.
D.Companies should program their vehicles to drive faster.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.California Allows Company to Test Cars with No Drivers
B.Two Companies’ Self-Driving Tests Get Approved
C.Self-Driving or Human-Driving, Which Should We Depend on?
D.Cruise or Waymo, Which Is Leading the Self-Driving Technology?

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the swim season, but Elizabeth didn’t like swim meets. She got horribly nervous but not because she wanted to win. Her nerves came from the possibility that she would do something horribly wrong and let everyone down. The day of a meet, she would be scared all day.
Recently, Elizabeth’s team announced a special swim night: Members 11 and older would swim a timed 50 meters in all four strokes and then have pizza. It wasn’t exactly a meet, because it would involve only team members. Elizabeth countered that it absolutely was a meet because there would be races and timers and so on. But her mother really wanted her to go. She fought back furiously but finally agreed.
When the day of the special swim night arrived, Elizabeth was nervous. When she got to the pool with her parents, she became even more nervous.
Her first race was the 50-meter freestyle. She swam her backstroke and breaststroke without incident. It wasn’t fun for Elizabeth. Her butterflies just kept flapping.
Then it was time for the T-shirt relay, which works like this: One person from each relay team puts on a T-shirt, a pair of socks, and a swim cap; swims 50 meters; and gets out of the pool. She takes off the clothes and puts them on the next person, who then swims 50 meters. This continues until everyone on the team has completed a lap.
For some unknown reason, Elizabeth’s relay team chose her to swim the anchor leg（最后一棒）. The team dressed her in socks and a T-shirt. And then she was off. She seemed to swim faster in the T-shirt and socks than she did when she wasn’t wearing them.
Approaching the halfway mark, she was still in the lead. Then somebody noticed that one of Elizabeth’s socks had fallen off and was floating in the pool. “She has to get that sock on before the end of the race,” a swimming official told Elizabeth’s team, “or you will be disqualified.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Everybody on her team started screaming, “Elizabeth! Elizabeth! Stop! Get the sock!”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
By now; the girl in lane two was about to pass Elizabeth.
