A My love for dogs goes as far back as my first memory. As a little girl, I collected dog toys. At 5 years old, I was ready and willing to run away with the family dog after the threat of giving him away when he chewed up the sofa. Luckily he stayed and my affection for man's best friend continued. As an adult, my reasons for wanting to adopt a dog were purely selfish. I wanted a companion. I wanted a young, energetic dog that would need long walks or runs to help keep me active to stick to an exercise routine.

Little did I know that my four-legged friend and love for dogs would help me feel more at home in and fall in love with my Shanghai community. It seemed to me that being a tall blonde didn't already attract a lot of curious stares; add a 12-kilogram black dog that believes everyone is his best friend to the picture and locals seem even more intrigued. The decision to adopt Xiao Hei definitely fulfilled those early selfish desires, but the experience has also brought me closer to my neighbors and made me feel more at home,.

A few months after I first brought Xiao Hei home, I spotted the group of elderly Chinese people who gather at the park. After realizing they go there most weeknights, I decided it would be a good way to help Xiao Hei socialize with other dogs. After a few visits, it was not only an opportunity for him to play but also a chance for me to practice my Chinese. \give their dogs English names, but you've given him a Chinese name. Very interesting,\they laughed. With that simple laugh, it seemed that barriers were broken and with each visit I felt more a part of the community.

21. Why did the author want to adopt a dog?

A. To practice Chinese. B. To understand Chinese culture. C. To feel at home. D. To find a companion. 22. Who is likely to be the author of the text?

A. A Shanghai native. B. A Chinese dog lover.

C. A foreigner in Shanghai. D. A researcher on Chinese culture. 23. The underlined word “intrigued” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________. A. interested B. excited C. satisfied D. frightened 24. What can be inferred from the text?

A. The author once left home with her dog.

B. The author gets along well with her neighbors. C. The author is good at the Chinese language. D. The author will settle in Shanghai forever.

It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest men would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver's seat is another matter.

Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense. It takes the most cool－headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behaviors of politeness are by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don't even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.

However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. Typical examples are the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.

An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings.

Unfortunately, modern drivers can't even learn to drive, let alone master the road manship. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.

25. Troubles on the road are often caused by________.

A. the behavior of the drivers B. traffic jams

C. great speed D. terrible road conditions 26. According to the writer, a good driver should________. A. be able to recognize politeness when he sees it B. beat back when forced to face rude driving

C. encourage old ladies to cross the roads whenever they want to D. join in traffic stream quickly however other people feel 27. The passage mainly talks about________.

A. traffic jams B. road politeness C. good manners D. modern drivers

Scientists claim to have developed a revolutionary new giant 3D concrete printer that can build a 2,500-square-foot house in just 24 hours.

The 3D printer, developed by Professor Behrokh Khoshnevis from the University of Southern California, could be used to build a whole house, layer by layer, in a single day.

\is basically scaling up 3D printing to the scale of building,\said Khoshnevis.

4

The giant robot replaces construction workers with a nozzle (喷嘴), which can quickly build a home based on a computer pattern, MSN News reported.

Contour Crafting, as it is named, is a layered fabrication (构造) technology. Using this process, a single house or a colony of houses, each with possibly a different design, may be constructed in a single run, embedded (嵌入) in each house all the wires and pipes for electrical, plumbing and air-conditioning.

The potential applications of this technology are far-reaching including in emergency, low-income, and commercial housing.

\habitats on other planets. Contour Crafting will most probably be one of the very few feasible approaches for building structures on other planets, such as the Moon and Mars, which are being targeted for human habitation before the end of the new century,\

The technology may potentially reduce energy use and emissions. And the main advantages of the Contour Crafting process over existing technologies are the superior surface finish that is realized and the greatly increased speed of construction.

28. Professor Khoshnevis has recently developed a 3D printer that can ________. A. build a 2500-square-foot house in a single day. B. construct a skyscraper, layer by layer. C. design a group of houses automatically. D. assist construction workers in their work.

29. The new 3D printer uses the following to build a house EXCEPT ________.

A. a nozzle B. a computer pattern C. a robot D. an air-conditioner

30. According to the text, the potential applications of Contour Crafting include building _______.

A. emergency vehicles B. low-income housing

C. commercial centers D. space stations on other planets 31. What advantages of this new technology is mentioned in the text? A. It creates more jobs. B. It is less time-consuming. C. It saves the building cost. D. It emits no carbon dioxide.
