　　Anewprintedlifestyle

　　Imagine this:you get up in the morning and put on a custom printed T-shirt.Then you eat some 3-D printed food and relax on your printed sofa.Perhaps you take a ride in a printed electric car to the hospital to get a printed tooth fitted.

　　Yet impossible as some of these things may seem,they’re closer to reality than you might think.The world of 3-D printing is coming to a store near you soon.

　　The idea of 3-D printing is to produce complicated shapes in a very personalized way.

　　If you want to make a totally new object,you need to make a virtual design in a CAD(computer aided design)file first.Or you can use a 3-D scanner to make a digital copy of an object.Then,based on the design or copy,the 3-D printer makes paper-thin slices out of liquid,plastic or metal and puts them together to create the object you want.

　　There are many areas in which 3-D printing could change our lives.One such area is healthcare.

　　Researchers have developed simple 3-D printed organs,which could be used in life-saving operations.

　　A 17-year-old boy in the US has also recently developed a brain-powered,3-D printed replacement hand.From heart monitors to fake limbs(四肢),we could soon be living longer thanks to 3-D printed technology.

　　Another area that 3-D technology looks sure to change is food.

　　Can you imagine being able to print your favorite dishes at home at the touch of a button?Even big companies are behind the trend.

　　Hersheys,one of the largest chocolate makers in the world,recently announced that it would start producing chocolate with the help of 3-D printers.

　　And don’t just think of the idea of 3-D printed food as a move to attract attention and customers.

　　NASA,the US space agency,has reportedly spent $125,000(767,594 yuan)developing a “3-D pizza printer”.

　　It is not yet clear how long it will take until 3-D printers are available to everyone.

　　But one thing is for sure:the possibilities are endless.

　　1.The purpose of the first paragraph is to 　.?

　　A.describe the benefits that 3-D printing has brought to all of our lives

　　B.picture a future life with 3-D printing in wide use

　　C.list some major 3-D printing breakthroughs

　　D.give the history of 3-D printing

　　解析:寫作意圖題。根據“Yetimpossibleassomeofthesethingsmayseem,they’reclosertorealitythanyoumightthink.”可知第一段中作者想象了未來3-D打印技術普及后人們日常生活的場景。這并不是真實生活中的情景,里面的技術也不一定是真實存在的。

　　答案:B

　　2.Compared with traditional manufacturing procedures,3-D printing 　.?

　　A.could produce complicated products in larger sizes or numbers

　　B.has an advantage in meeting the personal needs of customers

　　C.relies less heavily on the use of 3-D scanners

　　D.produces separate parts of an object before joining them together

　　解析:細節理解題。根據“Theideaof3-Dprintingistoproducecomplicatedshapesinaverypersonalizedway.”可知B項正確。根據“Ifyouwanttomakeatotallynewobject,youneedtomakeavirtualdesigninaCAD(computeraideddesign)filefirst”可知C項太絕對。根據“...the3-Dprintermakespaper-thinslicesoutofliquid,plasticormetalandputsthemtogethertocreatetheobjectyouwant”可知D項錯誤。

　　答案:B

　　3.We can infer from the article that 　.?

　　A.people can create any object they want,with any material,thanks to 3-D printing

　　B.3-D printed organs and limbs are as effective as real ones

　　C.big food companies are major players in the 3-D printing industry

　　D.there could still be a long way to go before everyone can have access to 3-D printing

　　解析:推理判斷題。根據“Itisnotyetclearhowlongitwilltakeuntil3-Dprintersareavailabletoeveryone.”可知D項正確。根據“Evenbigcompaniesarebehindthetrend.”可知C項錯誤。A、B兩項的描述文中均沒有提到。

　　答案:D

　　4.What is the author’s attitude toward the development of 3-D printing?

　　A.Doubtful.　 B.Hopeful.　 C.Critical.　 D.Worried.

　　解析:觀點態度題。縱觀全文以及最后一句“Butonethingisforsure:thepossibilitiesareendless.”可知作者介紹了3-D打印技術的發展前景,字里行間都充滿了期待。

　　答案:B

　　Ⅳ.語法填空

　　閱讀下面材料,在空白處填入適當的內容(1個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。

　　Inequality between men and women results in poorer health for children and greater family poverty,according to a new study.The UN agency Unicef found that,　1　 the situation has slightly improved,many women are still not included in family decisions,　2　as a result their children are more likely to suffer from poor health.?

　　The main finding of the 30-country survey is that equality between men and women is vital to 　3　(improve)living standards and health,especially for children in developing countries.The conclusions are contained in the agency’s 　4　(late)report.This report points to a lack of opportunities for girls and women in education and work,which contributes 　5　 their poverty and lack of power.Where men control the household,less money 　6　(spend)on healthcare and food,　7　 results in poorer health for children.?
