• 1．My sister and I were flying by ourselves from our home in Kansas to a summer camp in Minnesota.Our plane had a two-hour stop at the airport in Omaha，Nebraska.A flight attendant took us to a souvenir shop，where a toy airplane looked just like the plane my sister and I were flying on.I really wanted that airplane.I had ＄10 and the plane cost ＄8.I had no idea what I needed to buy at camp，but I bought the plane anyway.When we reached the camp，I discovered that there were no showers!Instead，we bathed in a lake every night.I needed to buy special soap because the regular soap I brought had chemicals that could harm the fish.The special soap cost ＄4 at the camp store.However，I had only ＄2 left.
     What upset me was that I couldn't get clean without the soap，which was soon found by my teacher，Sally.I had to tell her that I had spent most of my money on a toy airplane.She laughed and explained to me that a budget was necessary and it was a plan for spending money to help make sure you set aside enough for things you need，like soap，before you buy fun things，like toys.
     Sally gave me one of her extra（額外的）bottles of special soap.When I returned home，I decided to budget.I spent several weeks writing down everything I bought，just to get an idea of how I was already spending my money.Then I made my first weekly budget.My budget wasn't always the same each week.For some weeks，I would have more in my "Money In" account because I did some jobs around the house.Once summer vacation started，I didn't need to buy school lunches，so I had extra money to go to the neighborhood swimming pool or to give to the town animal shelter.
     Budgeting was hard，sometimes.Whatever week it was，I always made sure that "Money In" equaled "Save and Spend. " That's called making ends meet，and it's how you make sure that the money you have will always be enough to cover your plans to spend and save.
  
  （1）Why did Sally give the writer one bottle of her special soap？

  
  A．The writer's usual soap did harm to his skin.
  B．The writer needed to take showers at the camp.
  C．The writer turned to Sally for it to get clean.

• 2．About six years ago I was going through a tough time，trying to work two jobs to afford my rent.On a cold Sunday morning，I went to Game Stop-a video game retailer（零售商），to cancel the game I'd booked.A woman in a car parked outside called me when I exited the store.Though it was in broad daylight，I was shy about it and kept some distance when I walked over.She said she couldn't walk and requested me to purchase a Kinect，a popular game，for her as her son's Christmas gift.Because of her leg disease it was painful for her to move around.She called ahead but the employee（雇員）wasn't willing to help.She gave me about ＄100 in cash and her credit card.
     I walked back in and bought the Kinect.Then it occurred to me that this woman，a complete stranger，trusted me.What was it that stopped me from lying about the payment method and just pocket her cash？She couldn't know I wasn't a cheat；and how could she possibly believe in someone so much？
      I handed her the cash back，explaining I had to pay with her card-it was above ＄100 at the time，and handed over the game and her credit card. "This is what my son's been longing for.Thank you!By the way，just from glancing at you，I know you are the one who will be a friend to someone in need.You have a face of an angel! " she said.She gave me ＄10 and refused to take it back.Then she drove away.
     She had no idea how much of a difference even ＄10 made.I was able to buy a few cheap groceries for the week and it really made a hard time in my life a little better.She may think I helped her；however，I truly feel like the one who was being gifted something amazing.

• 3．Though 3 D printing technology has been available for over two decades，it has not gone mainstream as hoped because of the high cost and slow print speed.But that may change soon，thanks to German sportswear manufacturer Adidas.On December 15，2016，the company revealed Adidas 3 D Runners，stylish sports sneakers featuring a 3 D printed midsole （鞋底夾層）that provides athletes with the extra cushioning （軟墊）needed for optimal performance.
     Unlike traditional midsoles，these are not a uniform foam（泡沫），but weblike structures with varied density to take into account the impact areas of the foot.This means that the mesh（網(wǎng)眼）is thicker in the shoe's front and back，both of which hit the ground hard when the athlete runs.A 3 D printed heel，put into the midsole，eliminates the need for traditional gluing or stitching （縫合）．The shoe upper，made of Primeknit，allows for increased flexibility，stability，and protection in the impact areas.
     Not surprisingly，the stylish，limited edition black training shoes that were only available for sale in New York City，London，and Tokyo and cost ＄333，were an instant hit and sold out within hours of their release.Though not affordable or available to the mass market，the radical shoes are an encouraging step in the right direction for more widespread use of the technology.
     While printing 3 D objects may sound complicated，the process is relatively straightforward.Once the design is downloaded to a printer，a laser creates a layer of material，usually plastic or metal.Successive layers are deposited above one another and fused together until the product is complete.The technology can be used to build everything，from shoe soles to a microwave oven.There is currently even an effort underway to make a printer that is large enough to create the cement layers required to build a house.
  
  （1）3 D printed midsoles are different from ordinary ones in that

  .
  A．they are made of uniform foam
  B．they are held together with glue
  C．the meshes are larger than ordinary ones
  D．they are like webs with different density
  （2）The underlined word "eliminate" in Paragraph 2 most probably means "

  "．
  A．catch up with
  B．get related to
  C．be connected with
  D．get rid of
  （3）From Paragraph 3 we can infer that

  .
  A．the shoes sold well
  B．the shoes were relatively cheap
  C．the shoes can satisfy the need of the market
  D．the company can mass produce the shoes
  （4）What does the last paragraph mainly tell us？

  
  A．What a 3 D printer is.
  B．How a 3 D printer works.
  C．How complicated the process is.
  D．What size a 3 D printer is.

     A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank，he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn't get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked， "It looks like you've got a problem."
     "I'm afraid so.I'm in a big hurry and I can't start my car."
     "Is there something I can do to help？" Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said， "Thanks.If you're sure it wouldn't be too much trouble，you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi."
     "No trouble at all.I'd be glad to help."
     The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground，he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking，he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
     It was from the bank.There had been a robbery!
     Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other， "What happened？" But everyone had a different answer.
     Arthur，still carrying the suitcase，turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
     She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised. "Why is she looking at me like that？" He thought."The suitcase!She thinks I'm the bank thief！"
     Arthur looked around at the crowd of people.He became frightened，and without another thought，he started to run.
  Paragraph 1：
  As he was running，Arthur heard the young man shouting behind， "Stop，stop！"____________________
  Paragraph 2：
  The taxi stopped in front of the Police Station and Arthur._____________________
