"There was once，"he said.He told me that when I was one year old，he put a pen a piece of paper money and a toy m front of me.He wanted to see which one I would pick.It's a tradition that a lot of Chinese people do when their kids are one year old.According to this tradition，it shows what the kid will value most when he or she grows up.For example，if the kid takes the pen，it means he or she will be a wise person in the future.If the kid takes the money，it means he or she will value money more than others and become rich.If the kid takes the toy，it means he or she will like fun things and play a lot.My father was doing it because he was curious（好奇的）.It was interesting for him to see which one I would pick.According to him，I moved toward him.Then I pushed everything aside and went right into his arms.Tears （泪水）came to his eyes.He didn't realize that he was one of the choices.And that was the first time I made him cry.35.

Or putting together a spaceship? Or even seeing your face made out of chocolate? Done. All you need is a 3-D printer!The possibilities of 3-D printing seem endless. All the user has to do is to design(设计) an object on the computer and choose a material(材料) to print in. The printers print in hundreds of different materials including glass, sugar and even skin! When the user presses “print”, the 3-D printer spreads the material layer(层) by layer and like magic the object isproduced.The first 3-D printer was invented in 1986 by an American, Charles Hull. But 3-D printing has only become cheap enough recently for most people to use. Designers now use 3-D printing to create unusual things. The Dutch artist Dirk Vander Kooj prints furniture made from old fridges. And doctors have used 3-D printing to print human body parts! The Telegraph reported in February that scientists from Cornell Medical College even printed a man-made ear.But like a lot of new technologies, if 3-D printing gets into the wrong hands, it can be dangerous. In 2011 a group of four men in the US used 3-D printing to produce ATM skimmers (提款机盗刷器). These were placed on an ATM and stole over $400,000 from users of the ATM. It is terrible to think thatcriminalslike them might one day use a 3-D printer to print a gun.But for better or for worse, 3-D printing has been put into use. In a few years, you’ll probably be wondering how you could ever live without your 3-D printer!1．_______ invented the first 3-D printer.A．Charles Hull B．Dirk Vander KoojC．A doctor called Cornell D．Four men in the U.S2．What is the correct order for people to use a 3-D printer?a. Choose a proper material.b. Press the print button.c. The 3-D printer spreads the material.d. Use a computer to design an object.A．a-b-c-d B．d-a-b-cC．a-c-d-b D．d-c-b-a3．The underlined word “criminals” in the fourth paragraph might mean ______________ in Chinese.A．技术员B．军人C．罪犯D．用户4．According to the passage, people have NOT yet produced _________ with a 3-D printer.A．some furniture B．a man-made earC．ATM skimmers D．a gun5．What does the writer think of the 3-D printer?A．It is necessary only for our work.B．It is helpful but dangerous.C．It is too expensive for most people.D．It is useless in our daily life.B14、This is a song millions of Americans will hear this New Year’s Eve. It is called Auld Lang Syne《友谊地久天长》. It is the traditional music played during the New Year’s celebration. Auld Lang Syne is an old Sc ottish poem. It tells about the need to remember old friends.The words “auld lang syne” mean “old long since”. No one knows who wrote the poem first. However, a version(版本) by Scottish poet Robert Bums was published(出版) in 1796. The words and music we know today first appeared in a songbook three years later.The song is played in the United States mainly on New Year’s Eve. The version you are hearing today is by the Washington Saxophone Quartet. As we end our program with Auld Lang Syne. I would like to wish all our radio friends a very Happy New Year! This is Buddy Thomas.1．This passage is from _________.A．a newspaper B．a magazineC．a TV program D．a radio program2．Who is introducing Auld Lang Syne to us?A．Robert Bums.B．The Washington Saxophone Quartet.C．Buddy Thomas.D．The passage doesn’t tell us.3．The words and music of Auld Lang Syne we know today first appeared_______.A．in 1790 B．in 1793C．in 1796 D．in 1799C15、Liu Jinyin, a young farmer in a village of southwest China’s Sichuan Province, has attracted nearly 100,000 followers by broadcasting(网络直播) his daily life in the rural area. Within six months, Liu made 80,000 yuan. Some of his followers said his broadcasts reminded them of their childhood memories.The rise of live streaming (直播的兴起) has given ordinary people chances to receive more attention and make the ways they can make money.However, vulgar (粗俗的) content and lack of originality have long been criticized (批评) by society. The broadcasts of Liu stand out because of their different content — clean content that is close to real life, such as feeding pigs,transplanting rice seedlings (插秧), and catching fish.Liu’s videos also open a window for the people living in cities or towns to know more about village life. Liu does not ask for any gifts from his viewers. Instead, he lets the broadcasts serve as a platform (平台) for people to exchange ideas and make friends.Liu’s parents have found it hard to accept his money earning plan and criticized their son.Honestly speaking, broadcasting one’s daily life is not a proper job. But according to Karl Ma rx, when we choose a career, we should guide our choice of the career from the happiness of human beings and our own perfection.Starting from the countryside, Liu mixes his personal development with the building of a new socialist (社会主义) countryside. His career of broadcasting the daily life in the village is a career that is worth exploring.1．According to the article, we know that Liu live in _________.A．In the countryside.B．In the city.C．In the southeast of China.D．In a village of Shanxin Province.2．Which of the following is NOT true about Liu’s broadcasts?A．People who live in the city can learn about village life from the broadcasts.B．People can exchange ideas with one another from the broadcasts.C．People can make friends with each other from the broadcasts.D．Liu uses his broadcasts to ask for presents from his viewers.3．What do Liu’s parents think of their son’s broadcasts?A．It’s not easy for them to accept Liu’s broadcasts.B．They accept Liu’s broadcasts although they don't like them.C．They are happy with Liu’s broadcasts.D．They advised their son to find a job in the city to make a living.4．All the following things are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT __________.A．the amount of money Liu’s e arned from his broadcasts.B．the number of people on Liu’s broadcasts.C．the disadvantages of Liu’s broadcasts.D．the reason why Liu’s broadcasts were watched by people.5．What’s the writer’s opinion on Liu’s career?A．He is against it.B．He supports it.C．He doesn’t care about it.D．He isn’t interested in it.D16、People believed for a long time that heart was the center of a person’s emotions. That is why the word “heart” is used in so many expressions about emotional situations.One such expression is to “lose your heart” to someone. When that happens, you have fallen in love. But if the person who “won your heart” does not love you, then you are sure to have a “broken heart”. In your pain and sadness, you may decide that the person you love is “hard-hear ted”, and in fact, has a “heart of stone”.You may decide to “pour out your heart” to a friend. Telling someone about your personal problems can often make you feel better.If your friend does not seem to understand how painful your broken heart is, you ma y ask her to “have a heart”. You are asking your friend to show some sympathy(同情) for your situation. Your friend “has her heart in the right place” if she says she is sorry, and shows great concern(关心).If your friend says no to you, do not “lose heart”. Be “strong-hearted”. Sit down with him or her and havea________talk. Be open and honest about your situation.

The underlined words “heart to heart” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.A．诚恳的B．心心相印C．倾诉衷肠D．针锋相对E17、What would you say when we told you that you could learn to speak a new language in only 7 days? Pretty unbelievable, right? But how could it be? To find out, we spoke to David－one of our brave Babbel learners－to see how the Babbel app successfully got him speaking Norwegian(挪威语) in just one week.How much time did you learn each day?I didn’t need to give my whole life over to learnin g Norwegian. Each Babbel lesson takes only 15 minutes, and I set myself the achievable aim of finishing three Babbel lessons daily. This took 45 minutes each day.How did the Babbel app help you learn so quickly?The Babbel app has a course plan for beginners that taught me how to make sentences in Norwegian within the first few days. Then I was able to personalize my learning by choosing single-topic lessons on eating, drinking, music, culture, travelling and so on.

The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it. And those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smart phone and left anywhere in public. Bike-sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.In some cities, we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing bikes. It’s very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smart phone. First, you have to download such an APPon your smart phone. Then what you need to do is to find a nearest bike through the APP, scan the QR code（二维码）on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection. Y ou will find the bike can be unlocked itself.Then you can enjoy your trip. What’s more, the greatest advantage of bike-sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you n eed to pay one yuan. It doesn’t cost so much, does it?At the same time, some people park the bikes in their own homes. Besides, some people don’t value the bikes. Now service companies are trying to solve the problem like being stolen.Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles. We have to say bike-sharing brings us more convenience without doubt. And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.1．What do we know from the first paragraph?A．Most people in citie s don’t drive.B．Bike-sharing is becoming more and more popular.C．Bike-sharing is invented in China.D．Sharing bikes can be borrowed everywhere.2．If you want to use a sharing bike, you must first .A．download an APP and pay for the tripB．have a smart phone and download an APPC．unlock the bike and download an APPD．find a nearest bike and borrow it from anyone3．The underlined word “value” in Paragraph 4 probably means in Chinese.A．喜欢B．收藏C．爱惜D．购买4．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A．Bike-sharing is a kind of expensive transport.B．Sharing bikes are easy to unlock.C．Sharing bikes may be stolen.D．Bike-sharing is very cheap.5．What’s the writer’s attitude towards bike-sharing?A．Convenient.
