三、阅读

Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 10 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.

Passage 1

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 i t’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 any material. The printer layers 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 now. People’s nervous systems have been printed out in 3-D form for 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 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 price of a household printer is around $ 1,700, not including the cost of the materials.

But as the technology develop s, it shouldn’t be long before these disadvantages are improved. Only time will tell where this new technology will take us.

1. People could see 3-D printing is ___B___ ten years ago.

A. large high schools.

B. science fiction movies.

C. digital camera shops.

D. hospitals

2. People still can’t make a(n) ___C___ with a 3-D printer so far.

A. airplane

B. face

C. organ

D. rocket

3. What does the underlined word “drawbacks” mean? A

A. 不足

B. 趋势

C. 优点

D. 倒退

4. Which of following is True? C

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. Now the printer will make human organs to save more lives.

5. What’s the best title of this passage? B

A. The disadvantages of 3-D Printing.

B. The Changes Brought by 3-D Printing.

C. The Rapid Development of Science.

D. The Development of Printing

Passage 2

Reading to oneself is a modern activity that was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace.

One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is a distraction to others. Examination of factors related to the historical development of silent reading reveals that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.

The nineteenth century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy, and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of potential listeners declined, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers.

Towards the end of the century there was still considerable argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and periodicals for a specialized readership on the other.

By the end of the century students were being recommended to adapt attitudes to books and to use skills in reading them which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term “reading” implied.

6. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century? C

A. Silent reading had not been discovered.

B. There were few places available for private reading.

C. Few people could read for themselves.

D. People relied on reading for entertainment.

7. The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century indicated ___B___.

A. a change in the status of literate people.

B. A change in the nature of reading.

C. an increase in the number of books.

D. an increase in the average age of readers.

8. Educationalists are still arguing about ___D___.

A. the importance of silent reading.

B. the amount of information yielded by books and newspapers.

C. the effects of reading on health.

D. the value of different types of reading material.

9. The emergence of the mass media and specialized periodicals showed that ___B___,

A. standards of literacy had declined.

B. readers’ interest had diversified.

C. printing techniques had improved.

D. educationalists’ attitudes had changed.

10.What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A

A. To explain how present-day reading habits developed.

B. To change people’s attitudes to reading.

C. To show how reading methods have improved.

D. To encourage the growth of reading.

四、写作

The Spring Festival is very important to Chinese people. You should start your essay with a brief description of this traditional festival and then express your views on its importance to Chinese families

Think again. Leasingcan end up being just as expensive as buying. Most peoplethink about leasing because they believe it will cost them less money. They'reright-it is cheaper, but only in the short term. For example, if you were tolease anew Subaru Forester, you might pay $300 per month for the car. If youwere to buy the same car, you would pay about $400per month. Over a three-year, you would save $3600-a big savings. But afteryour lease is over, you have to give the car back. Many peoplewant to lease because they can drive a more expensive car than they might otherwisebe able to afford. For example, if you spend $300 monthly on a car, you mightbe able to lease a new Ford Explorer. For
