C

Imagine having an idea, drawing it on paper, bringing it to a store and seeing it turned into a physical object．This is now possible with the help of 3D printers．Such machines were once used just by universities and big companies．But now, stores with 3D printing services are appearing around the United States．

Bryan Jaycox and his wife opened The Build Shop LLC in Los Angeles two years ago．The store is filled with tools like a laser cutter, an industrial sewing machine and 3D printers．Bryan Jaycox requires $ 15 an hour to print an object．He also charges a fee depending on the size of the object and up to $ 50 an hour for design and labor services．

The Jaycoxs also offer 3D printing classes for anyone who is interested．One of the students in a recent class was Ki Chong Tran．He plans to open a 3D printing business in Cambodia．"The demand has been amazing．It's been much more than I would have imagined," said Ki Chong Tran．

"I think 3D printing is going to be huge． It's going to make a huge impact on society as a whole," he added．

Mr Jaycox predicts that within five years, 3D printing technology could become

more consumer friendly．

But Ki Chong Tran says even current technology can make a difference in a developing country like Cambodia．"With 3D printing you can give them tools, and you put it in their hands so they are responsible more for their own development．

They learn skills beyond just learning English and becoming a tour guide or something like that or working at a bank．You can actually create things that give value to the world," said Ki Chong Tran．

He says it's not just Cambodia but anywhere where there is a 3D printer, it can turn a good idea into reality．

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆寧夏大學附屬中學高三上學期第三次月考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

It’s such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.

It’s a library built with love.

A year ago, shortly after, Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free. Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making，books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break!”

Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbos. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses, and made a door of glass.

After adding the library’s final touches(裝點), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach county.

They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids’ favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey s stay-at-home mom.

Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(補充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.

The project’s best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”

1.In what way is the library “pedestrian—friendly”?

A. It owns a yellow roof.

B. It stands near a sidewalk.

C. It protects book lovers from the sun.

D. It uses palm-tree stickers as decorations.

2.Janey got the idea to build a library from .

A. a visit to Brian Williams

B. a spring break with her family

C. a book sent by one of her neighbors

D. a report on a Wisconsin-based organization

3.What can we infer about the signboard?

A. It Was made by a user of the library.

B. It marked a final touch to the library.

C. It aimed at making the library last long.

D. It indicated the library was a family property.

In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品質) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).

Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.

At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults (過錯) in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.

Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on (信賴) a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.

There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience (經驗) and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默), too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.

When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!

1.Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a friend?

A. understanding.

B. honesty.

C. reliability.

D. a sense of humor.

2.If you have fair weather friends, ______.

A. they will give you all that they have when you need help

B. you will be refused when you get into trouble

C. you will become rich

D. you can be sure that you get real friends

3.Good friends need to ______.

Most people know the feeling when you walk into a lift(電梯) with other people. A study has found that where people stand is based on their social position on entering the lift.

Rebekah Rousi, a Ph.D. student, did a study of lift behavior in two of the tallest office buildings in Adelaide, Australia. As part of her research, she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings, and discovered there was a fixed order about where people chose to stand.

In her research paper, she wrote that more senior men seemed to walk straight towards the back of the lift. She said , “in front of them were younger men, and in front of them were women of all ages.” She also noticed there was a difference in the direction where people look during the ride. “Men watched the monitors, looked in the side mirrors (in one building) to see themselves, and in the door mirrors (in the other building) to watch others. Women would watch the monitors and avoid looking into others’ eyes (unless in conversations) and the mirrors.”

Rebekah Rousi concluded that shyer people stand toward the front, where they can’t see other passengers, while fearless people stand in the back, where they have a good view of everyone else.

1.According to the study, where people stand in a lift is decided by __________.

A. their social position

B. the monitors

C. other passengers

D. others’ position

2.Who are most likely to go to the back of the lift?

A. Shyer people. B. Senior men.

C. Younger men. D. Women.

3.Which is true according to the passage?

A. The order in which people stand in a lift is fixed.

B. Few people feel embarrassed with strangers in a lift.

C. Women like watching themselves in the side mirrors.

D. Fearless people stand in the back to avoid seeing others.

4.The passage is probably taken from __________.

A. a lift instruction B. a story book

C. a travel guide D. a newspaper
