Set to open in 2013，the￡188m LoB is already beginning to take shape next to the Birmingham Repertory Theatre，with which it will share some equipment. As digital media(媒介)is important to its_idea，the project is already providing chances for some of the many small new local companies working at the new technologies. Brian Gambles，the LoB project director，says it is about giving people the right tools for learning：“The aim is to mix the physical with the digital，providing 24－hour services which can be used through many different ways.It is important to enable us to reach more people，more effectively.” The digital library will，he says，be as important as the physical one，allowing the distant use of the services, making sure that it is never closed to the public.

Then you eat some 3-D printed food and relax on your printed sofa. Perhaps you take 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 3 a ride in a printed electric car to the hospital to get a printed tooth fitted. Though some of these things may seem impossible, 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 can change our lives. One such area is health care. Researchers have developed simple 3-D printed organs, which can 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 can 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. 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. list some major 3-D printing breakthroughs B. describe the characters of 3-D printing C. picture a future life with 3-D printing D. describe the benefits that 3-D printing has brought to our lives 2. Compared with traditional manufacturing procedures, 3-D printing ________. A. isn’t practical in daily life B. relies less heavily on the use of 3-D scanners 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 4 C. can produce complicated products in larger sizes or numbers D. has an advantage in meeting the personal needs 3. We can infer from the article that ________. A. there is still a long way to go before everyone can have access 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. people can create any object with any material by 3-D printing 4. What can be the best title for the text? A. What is 3-D printing? B. A new technology-3-D printing. C. How to use 3-D printing? D. The development of 3-D printing. 参考答案 1—4、CDAB 2016 高考训练题。阅读理解。 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。 Key responsibilities: ◆ Manage the whole marketing activities, i.e. brand building, market research and integrated-marketing functions. ◆ Develop and evaluate brand activities including the development of promotional activities, advertising and merchandising. ◆ Obtain market share by developing marketing plans and programs for key brands. ◆ Conduct market and product research; maintain data base by identifying and gathering marketing information. ◆ Understand market/competitor intelligence and cooperate with the sales teams in developing the appropriate marketing strategies. ◆ Keep contacts and exchange of information with regional operations on marketing issues. ◆ Participate in and contribute to the budget and business planning cycle. ◆ Supervise the project to establish company websites. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 ◆ Complete marketing department operational requirements by scheduling and assigning employees; develop, maintain, evaluate and lead the marketing team of pan-China. ◆ Serve as a member of the senior management team providing input and direction on the company’s strategic and operational goals and objects.

Mary gave him a tin basin of water and a piece of soap, and he went outside the door and set the basin on a little bench there; then he dipped the soap in the water and laid it down; turned up his sleeves; poured out the water on the ground, gently, and then entered the kitchen and began to wipe his face diligently on the towel behind the door. But Mary removed the towel and said: “Now aren’t you ashamed, Tom. You mustn’t be so bad. Water won’t hurt you.” Tom was a little unsettled. The basin was refilled, and this time he stood over it, took in a big breath and began. When he entered the kitchen presently, with both eyes shut and feeling for the towel with his hands, an honorable testimony of bubbles and water was dripping from his face. But when he came out from the towel, he was not yet satisfactory, for the clean territory stopped short at his chin and his jaws, like a mask; below and beyond this line there was a dark expanse of unirrigated soil that spread downward in front and backward around his neck. Mary took him in hand, and his flooded hair was neatly brushed, and its short curls formed into an elegant and regular general effect. Then Mary got out a suit of his clothing that had been 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 used only on Sundays during two years -- they were simply called his “other clothes” -- and so by that we know the size of his wardrobe. After he had dressed himself, Mary checked over and over again. Now he looked extraordinarily improved but uncomfortable. He was fully as uncomfortable as he looked; for there was a self-control about whole clothes and cleanliness that annoyed him. When Mary brought out the shoes, he lost his temper and said he was always being made to do everything he didn’t want to do. But Mary said, persuasively: “Please, Tom – that’s a good boy.” So he got into the shoes howling. Mary was soon ready, and the two children set out for Sunday-school -- a place that Tom hated with his whole heart; but Mary was fond of it. 56. The first time Tom washed his face, he ______. A. dipped his face in the water B. poured water on his face C. wiped his face on the towel D. moved the towel on his face 57. Mary refilled the basin for Tom to wash his face, and he ______. A. washed his hair as well B. didn’t wash his neck C. brushed his teeth as well D. didn’t use the soap 58. It can be inferred that Tom’s other clothes were ______. A. measured to his wardrobe B. formed into general effect C. called his best clothes D. put to use at Festivals 59. When Mary said “That’s a good boy”, she really meant “A good boy ______”. A. always dresses himself properly and neatly B. never has curled hair. C. always washes his face with water D. never loses his temper. 60. What will we read about next? A. How Tom hated the school.

What happened at the school 【参考答案】56-60 C B B A D 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 8 阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的 A,B,C 或 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 America's Top 4 Tourist Attractions Below you'll find the most popular travel and vacation destinations in the US. 1．Times Square，New York City This Manhattan crossroads of commerce is the top spot on our list，thanks to increasing visitors to the Big Apple in 2008 despite the economic turndown.According to statistics，“80% of visitors to NYC make it a point to visit Times Square.”Total NYC visits last year were 47 million，giving us an estimate of 37.6 million travelers through the“Crossroads of the World”． 2．The Las Vegas Strip，Nev.
