I
come
from
a
broken
family,experiencing
my
parents’
divorce
and
remarriages.After
we
grew
up,my
three
siblings
and
I
could
go
years
without
speaking.And
that
is
where
this
story
begins.
My
sister
Jeanne
and
I
were
born
only
14
months
apart,but
by
the
time
we
were
teenagers
we
had
lost
touch.By
age
19,I
couldn’t
wait
to
move
away
from
our
home
in
Wisconsin
to
live
on
a
farm
in
Virginia,where
I
worked
as
a
vet
assistant.Jeanne
got
married
at
18,moved
to
Chicago,and
became—well,I
didn’t
know
what.We
lived
separate
lives
in
separate
states,and
our
connection
somewhat
ended.
When
I
was
24,I
was
on
a
trip
to
New
York
City
for
sightseeing
one
day.I
was
crossing
a
very
busy
street
loaded
with
people.Everyone
was
in
a
hurry.I
had
laughed
at
something
and
I
suddenly
heard
my
name
yelled
from
somewhere
behind
me:“Cheryl!”
I
froze
in
my
steps
in
the
middle
of
the
road.Tears
welled
up
instantly
in
my
eyes.I
knew
without
a
doubt
that
it
was
my
sister
Jeanne.I
yelled
before
even
turning
to
look,“Jeanne?”
It
was
her.“Oh
my
God!”
I
screamed,and
I
began
pushing
people
out
of
my
way
to
get
to
her.The
crowd
started
to
part.We
must
have
seemed
crazy.And
there
we
were,standing
in
the
middle
of
a
Manhattan
street,facing
each
other
and
smiling.I
couldn’t
believe
it.
I
later
asked
how
she’d
known
it
was
me—she
never
saw
me!She
said
it
was
my
laugh.I
wouldn’t
say
my
laugh
is
all
that
unusual,but
I
guess
to
a
family
member
it’s
infectious.It
hits
your
heart
and
resonates
in
your
mind.
Since
that
time,my
sister
and
I
have
never
been
separated.We
both
moved
back
to
Wisconsin.I
see
our
sister-to-sister
miracle
as
a
lesson,a
reminder
not
to
lose
touch
with
loved
ones.It
is
too
easy
to
remain
lost.
4.Why
Jeanne
and
Cheryl
were
separated?
A.Because
they
both
grew
up.
B.Because
they
wanted
to
escape
from
the
family.
C.Because
they
were
not
willing
to
keep
in
touch.
D.Because
they
hated
each
other
very
much.
5.How
did
Jeanne
recognize
Cheryl
in
a
crowd?
A.By
her
laugh.
B.By
her
talk.
C.By
her
look.
D.By
her
dress.

can
we
infer
after
these
two
sisters
met
in
New
York?

saw
it
as
a
miracle.
B.They
moved
back
to
Wisconsin.

remained
lost
easily.

Today,China
has
conducted
its
first
3D
printing
experiment
in
space
in
a
newly
launched
spacecraft,which
was
put
into
low-Earth
orbit
by
China’s
Long
March
5B
heavy-lift
carrier
rocket.
Video
broadcast
on
CCTV
showed
that
the
printer
has
printed
a
flat
section
of
a
honeycomb-shaped(蜂巢状的)
structure
as
well
as
a
symbol
of
China
Aerospace
Science
and
Technology
Corp,the
parent
company
of
the
China
Academy
of
Space
Technology.The
experiment
was
done
by
a
3D
printer,developed
and
built
by
its
Beijing
Spacecrafts
Manufacturing
Factory,inside
the
prototype
of
China’s
new-generation
manned
spacecraft.
The
printer,named
the
Space-Based
Composite
Material
3D
Printing
System,uses
carbon
fiber-reinforced
materials
to
autonomously
print
objects.It
is
installed
in
the
reentry
module
of
the
experimental
spaceship,and
will
be
brought
back
to
Earth
once
the
module
returns.
The
printer
features
advanced
technologies
in
material
modeling,precision
control
and
automation.Once
the
space-based
3D
printing
technology
becomes
operationally
ready,it
can
extensively
benefit
space
programs
as
astronauts
can
use
it
to
manufacture
a
lot
of
things
they
currently
need
to
obtain
from
resupply
flights
by
cargo
spacecraft.
Wang
Yanan,editor-in-chief
of
theAerospaceKnowledge
magazine,said
the
3D
printer
will
be
very
useful
in
extended
space
missions,such
as
those
in
a
space
station,because
it
will
allow
astronauts
to
make
components
quickly
and
conveniently
in
space.The
technology
will
save
future
space
journeys
considerable
resources
and
costs.
In
fact,the
device
is
not
the
only
representative
of
3D
printing
onboard
the
Prototype.
A
CubeSat
deployer,designed
and
made
through
3D
printing
by
CoSats
Space
Technology,is
also
carried
by
the
spacecraft
to
check
the
adaptability
of
3D-printed
equipment
in
space.CoSats
Chief
Operating
Officer
Bai
Ruixue
said
the
3D-printed
deployer
is
much
lighter
and
stronger
than
its
counterparts
and
it
will
have
huge
potential
in
the
space
industry.
8.What
did
the
video
broadcast
on
CCTV
show
to
the
audience?
A.The
process
and
the
products
of
the
3D
printing.
B.The
name
and
the
shape
of
the
3D
printer.
C.The
significance
of
the
3D
printing
technology.
D.The
relationship
between
the
two
companies.
9.What
if
a
component
is
broken
in
the
space
station
now?
A.It
has
to
be
sent
by
spaceship
back
to
Earth
for
repair.
B.The
astronauts
can
fix
it
conveniently
by
hand
on
the
spot.
C.The
astronauts
can
make
one
using
3D
printing
and
replace
it.
D.It
has
to
be
unloaded
and
abandoned
in
space.
10.What

the
underlined
“those”
(Para.5)
refer
to?
A.The
3D
printers.
B.The
magazines.
C.The
space
missions.
D.Astronauts.
11.Why

Five
years
ago,Yellow-Purple
tore
a
flexor
tendon(屈肌腱),making
it
difficult
to
use
her
left
leg.The
little
penguin
was
having
a
hard
time
walking
and
swimming.
Yellow-Purple
lives
with
a
large
group
of
African
penguins
at
Mystic
Aquarium
in
Mystic,Connecticut.African
penguins
are
an
endangered
species.They
are
beautiful,black
and
white
birds
that
are
about
two
feet
tall
when
fully
grown,and
they
are
very
popular
with
the
Aquarium’s
visitors.
The
staff
at
the
Aquarium
made
a
little
support
boot
for
Yellow-Purple
from
plastic.This
supported
her
left
ankle
and
made
it
much
easier
for
her
to
do
all
the
things
that
penguins
like
to
do.Yellow-Purple
was
getting
along
fine
with
her
boot,but
then
Dr.Jen
Flower,Chief
Clinical
Veterinarian
at
Mystic
Aquarium,heard
about
3D
printing
technology.She
decided
to
use
it
to
help
better
the
boot.
Luckily,Mystic
Aquarium’s
Vice
President
of
Education
&
Conservation,Kelly
Marls,knew
that
Mystic
Middle
School
had
recently
acquired
a
3D
Systems
printer.Kelly
reached
out
to
the
school
and
arranged
a
meeting.Sue
Prince,Library
Media
Specialist
at
Mystic
Middle
School,and
seven
middle
school
students
visited
Yellow-Purple
to
learn
what
was
needed,and
then
contacted
the
supplier
of
their
3D
printer,ACT
Group.
With
ACT
Group’s
help,the
students
learned
how
to
scan
Yellow-Purple’s
existing
foot
cast,and
then
use
that
data
to
create
a
more
efficient
boot
with
sculpting
software.The
final
boot
design
was
printed
on
a
3D
printer
using
multiple
materials,allowing
the
boot
to
be
flexible
enough
for
comfortable
movement,yet
hard
enough
to
support
the
injured
tendon.
The
students
were
thrilled
when
they
saw
Yellow-Purple
walking
almost
back
to
normal.It
was
a
great
way
to
put
science
into
practice.Celebrities
like
Ashton
Kutcher
shared
Yellow-Purple’s
story
on
Facebook,inspiring
more
than
1.5
million
combined
views.
12.What
can
we
learn
about
African
penguins?
A.They
are
very
large
in
number.
B.They
are
dangerous
species.
C.They
are
beautiful
when
young.
D.They
are
attractive
to
visitors.
13.Who
came
up
with
the
idea
of
an
updated
support
boot?
A.The
ACT
Group.
B.Dr.Jen
Flower.
C.Kelly
Matis.
D.Sue
Prince.
14.What
preparation
work
was
done
before
the
students
got
the
ACT
Group’s
help?
A.They
reached
school
on
time.
B.They
held
a
meeting
to
discuss
the
problem.
C.They
paid
a
visit
to
Yellow-Purple.
D.They
contacted
the
ACT
Group
for
supplies.
15.What

title
for
this
text?
A.The
development
of
3D
printing
B.A
penguin
benefiting
from
high-tech

Studying
abroad
is
a
worthwhile
and
often
life-changing
experience,but
be
sure
to
check
out
these
3
disadvantages
of
study
abroad
before
you
start
planning.
Disadvantage1:CulturalBarriers
Communication
is
essential
to
efficiency.　1　It’s
important
to
know
the
level
of
fluency
that
will
be
expected
of
you,both
from
your
teachers
and
peers
and
the
locals
with
whom
you’ll
be
communicating
abroad.?
In
addition,you
may
find
yourself
jolted(受挫)
by
the
sudden
shift
in
culture.Everything
from
food
and
religion
to
transportation
systems
and
the
style
of
dress
may
differ
from
those
in
your
home
country.　2　
If
you
are
not
properly
prepared
to
cope
with
these
differences,they
can
lead
to
great
stress.?
Disadvantage2:You’reOnYourOwn
Navigating
a
foreign
destination
on
your
own
can
be
an
intimidating
experience.Some
of
you
may
experience
certain
aspects
of
independence
for
the
very
first
time.　3　?
Because
some
of
the
worst
symptoms
of
culture
shock
can
result
from
the
realization
that
you
no
longer
have
your
friends
and
family
alongside
you,it’s
important
that
you’re
fully
prepared
for
this
transition.
Disadvantage3:　4　?
Travel
expenses,tuition,books,room
and
board,bills,transportation,and
overall
cost
of
living
can
add
up
quickly
when
living
abroad.　5　?
Consider
that
you’ll
likely
want
to
go
out
and
explore
your
new
home
in
addition
to
studying,so
be
sure
to
set
aside
plenty
of
cash
for
tourism,transportation,and
entertainment,as
well
as
for
emergencies.
A.Studying
Abroad
is
Expensive
B.Language
barriers
exist
in
every
country.
C.Make
sure
your
study
abroad
college
or
program
is
accredited(可信任的).
D.Research
cultural
and
regional
norms
and
expectations
before
you
go.
E.This
culture
shock
can
lead
to
feelings
of
anxiety
and
homesickness.
F.Depending
on
where
you
choose
to
study
abroad,your
expenses
can
vary
greatly
in
cost.
G.Perhaps
you’ve
never
lived
on
your
own
or
have
yet
to
travel
outside
of
your
home
country.
