21、3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as clothing, prosthetic limbs(假肢), musical instruments and so on. People and businesses are able to create the things they need very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
But can you imagine printing food?Some scientists are trying to revolutionize (改革) our eating experience by doing this. They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will become as usual as the microwave or blender. Scientists say that they are easy to use:you simply have to choose a recipe and put the food “inks” into the printer. You can also change the instructions to make the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create delicious meals.
Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be less need for traditional growing, transporting and packaging as food production would be quicker and easier. Printing food could also help people who suffer from dysphasia (吞咽障碍症).They could program the printer to print softer versions of their favorite foods so that they would not have trouble swallowing them.
However, some people think that the future of 3D-printed food would be a disaster. It could take away many jobs, including those for growing, transporting and packaging food. Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes could be printed from a raw “food ink”. Similarly, traditional cafes and restaurants might lose business. Also, there are worries about the nutritional value of printed food:is it really possible to get the nutrients (营养物) we need from food—based inks and gels?
What's more, cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity. It is hard to imagine a world where the fun of cooking is dead and meals can be done at the touch of a button.
【1】What should we do first if we want to print food?
A.Change the instructions.
B.Program the printer.
C.Choose a recipe.
D.Put food "inks" into the printer.
【2】Which could be the advantage of 3D food printing?
A.Saving the environment.
B.Giving people nutrients.
C.Helping with traditional farming
D.Offering more job chances.
【3】Which is the best title of the passage?
A.Why is 3D printing so popular?
B.Will 3D printing be the future of food?
C.3D food printers in the kitchens.
D.Different opinions on 3D printing.
22、We all know that bridges go over rivers, lakes, and highway. They can take cars, trains and people. But do you know that the first bridges were made of wood(木头)and rope? The rope stretched(展开)across the river for people to hold. Later, people used stones and steel to build strong and big bridges. The first steel bridge came out about 254 years ago. It was just like the ones we see today.
There are names for different kinds of bridges. A bridge over a road is called an overpass. A bridge for us to carry water is called an aqueduct. You can drive a boat on an aqueduct! A long high bridge for people to carry a road is viaduct. And a long bridge over a sea is called causeway. People can take a walk on causeway.
Building a bridge is not an easy job because it usually takes many years, costs much money and needs hundreds of workers. For example, workers must build supports(支撑物)first under the water. And after that, workers must spend a lot of time building piers. They are like the legs of the tables so they can hold up the bridge. This job can be really difficult in summer.
Today, bridges become a symbol of a city’s culture. Many people around the world come to San Francisco and Hebei to visit the big Golden Gate Bridge and Zhaozhou Bridge.
【1】People made the first steel bridge in ________.
A.1650

【3】Which of the following pictures may be an aqueduct?

B.
C.
D.
【4】The writer mentions the Golden Gate Bridge and Zhaozhou Bridge to show ________.
A.building a bridge is really difficult
B.they are not only bridges but also a kind of culture

23、My friend Jack and 1 were doing maths homework while his grandma was baking (烤) cookies.
“We are lucky to have enough food. Some people don’t have that. ” Jack said. “Maybe we can do something to help,” I said. “But it’s a big problem.”
After some discussion, we decided to volunteer at a soup kitchen the next week. Jack and I never did anything like this before, so we felt nervous.

“Um, I am not sure.”
“Mashed potatoes.”
“That’s funny!” he laughed. “I am David. You sure brightened up(使变得明亮)my day, young man. Thank you.”
On the way home, Jack, his grandma and I shared stories about the great people and the interesting things that day. We don’t need a lot of money to make a difference. We can donate (捐赠) our time, and we would like to go back and help again sometime.

24、 Twelve years ago, I learned an important life lesson in the back of a taxi in the New York City.
I got into a taxi and we drove to Grand Central Station. While we were d【1】in the right lane ( 车道), a black car s【2】 jumped out of a parking space just in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes (猛踩 刹车), skidded (打滑) and missed the other car by several inches! The driver of the other car, the guy who almost c【3】a big accident, started saying bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy.
I asked him. “W【4】 did you just do that? This guy almost hit your car and could have sent us to hospital !” He said, “Many people are like rubbish trucks(卡车). They run around full of r【5】. They need a place to dump it. When someone wants to dump on you, just s 【6】, wave, wish them well, and move on. You’ll be happier if you do like that.”
I thought his words were very m【7】. I couldn’t help a【8】myself. “How often do I allow this kind of people to dump rubbish on me? And how often do I take their rubbish and spread it onto other people: at work, at home, on the streets?” On that day I realized. “ I’m not going to do it any more.”
S【9】then, I have started to see people like rubbish trucks e【10】 And like my taxi driver, I just smile, wave, wish them well, and then I move on.
