Bus 95 B. Bus 44 C. Bus 77 D. Bus 23BFive years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said：“Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes todayand 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see what the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downsideI ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But Im just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when youre asleep？”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “Thats pretty creative. Who does that for you？”“Nobody. I do it.”“Reallyat night, when youre asleep？”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay？”24. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to_A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students interest in artD. teach the students about toy design25. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.26. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mistake. B. Drawback.C. Difficulty. D. Burden.27. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CWith my hands and knees on the floor of the airplane, I was searching for an old ladys missing hearing aid during the flight from Sydney to Los Angeles. It occurred to me that this may not be the most dignified posture for a Buddhist nun（修女）.I had seen the old lady from the seat in front of me as she walked up and down the passage with a flashlight. I asked a few times what was wrong, but she didnt answer at first she couldnt hear me. She was wearing a woolen coat. Judging from her accent, she came from Eastern Europe.Do you know what hearing aids cost? Thousands, especially for the new tiny hidden-in-the-ear type she described. It takes a long time for an appointment to make new one and many doctor visits to get the thing adjusted right. Therefore, my dignity seemed less important than finding that hearing aid. But how does one find a tiny black object in a shadowy jet cabin ?The lady wasnt even sure where or when she had lost it. At one point, a couple off light attendants did a random search around the ladys seat; I wasnt impressed. They left suggesting that she search the seat of her previous flight! My flashlight turned up all kinds of small objects, bits of plastic,broken pieces of headphones. The old lady said that she gave up. Yet I couldnt. After we landed, as passengers streamed past us, I insisted that the lady move aside while awaiting her wheelchair. Then I got into a real down and dirty search among the dust under her seat and on the floor.Look! A little peanut-sized shiny black object caught the light of my flashlight in a floor crack near her seat. What a rush. “I found it!” With great astonishment and gratitude, the old lady responded, “I havent the words to express my thanks!”24. Why did the author put her hands and knees on the floor?A. She is a religious Buddhist nun.B. She helped the old lady look for her hearing aid.C. She fell down from her seat.D. She wanted to stand out among the passengers.25. What do we know about the old lady?A. She ignored the authors question on purpose.B. She is an American.C. It was not difficult for her to get the hearing aid at all.D. She lost her hearing aid by accident.26. Where was the hearing aid found?A. Close to the old lady seat. B. On the previous flight.C. On the wheelchair. D. In another jet cabin.27. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To present the love from all people on board.B. To teach us how to find the lost thing.C. To tell us a story about kind help.D. To warn us to be more carefulDSee a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you. In the near future, youll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting “print” on your computer. You might find it hard to believe that you could actually “print” an object like you would a picture. But it is not that hard to understand how it would work. Just as a traditional printer sprays ink onto paper line by line, modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape.Instead of ink, the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin(树脂) and certain metals. The thinner each layer isfrom a millimetre to less than the width of a hairthe smoother and finer the object will be. This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s. Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it.Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3D printing industryprinters became much cheaper. For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost 20，000, while now they cost only about 1，000, according to the BBC. Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses, 3D printing can create just about anything you can think offlutes , bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs. In fact, scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer, according to Science Daily. The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.However, as 3D printing becomes more common, it may bring about certain problemssuch as piracy. “Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils (餐具) on your personal 3D printer, who will visit a retail store again？” an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News. Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?32 According to the article, in the future, the 3D printing technology will _.A. enable people to make better purchases onlineB. change the way we make many productsC. be applied as widely in our daily life as computersD. shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online33. What happened in the 3D printing industry last year?A. The 3D printing technology was taken out of the factory.B. The 3D printing technology began to be used in various fields.C. The 3D printer was used for medical treatment for the first time.D. The 3D printer became more affordable for consumers(消费者).34. What is the best title of the passage?A. Great Demand for 3D Printers B. Technology in the FutureC. Online Shopping Disappearing D. Printing out Everything35. How is the last paragraph developed?A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.C. By analyzing the cause and effect. D. By using figures.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Dos and Donts of DonatingGiving up your unused or unwanted stuff is a great way to make space in your home for the items that you do enjoy on a regular basis.36._ Here are some dos and donts of donating your belongings.Do Prep Your ClothesYouve thoroughly cleaned out your closets and drawers，and have a mountain of clothing waiting to be donated.
