The Miao people have a special festival, Manghao Festival. It’s in the first Chinese lunar month every year. The Miao people regard Manghao as a hero who helped to protect their homes. At the festival, young men dress up as Manghao and touch others to send good wishes.

In the past, if doctors wanted to learn about the human body, they don’t have many choices: studying from books, or doing research on animals or plants. Well, time has changed. Now, there’s something new called 3D printing, and it’s making big changes in how doctors learn.
Last year, a research team from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences invented hydrogel (水凝胶), a new material for 3D printing. As the “ink” for printing, hydrogel has helped the research team create 3D printed organs (器官), including the brain and heart. People found it hard to print the complex structures inside human organs before. It’s also hard to control the organs’ hardness (硬度). Luckily, this team has managed to make meaningful progress in these two aspects. ▲ . A doctor who tried these models said that he wouldn’t know they were not real if he was not told.
On the other hand, the research team had another problem to solve. Human organs have different textures (质地). For example, our brains are the softest. The team added special material to the hydrogel to create different textures for each organ. They also printed tiny holes and channels (通道) inside the organs. This will help medical students learn better. Compared to human organs and animal organs, 3D printed organs are also cheaper and more acceptable for medical students.
Apart from doing research, scientists are also working on 3D printed organs used in organ transplants (移植). Hydrogel cannot be used because the human body will fight against it. But scientists are looking for other materials that can grow inside the human body. Currently, a bladder (膀胱) has been successfully transplanted using 3D printing because it’s one of the simplest organs. Experts expect that this technology will help more patients within a few years, according to CNN.
61. Why is 3D printing changing how doctors learn?
A. Because it allows them to practice on live animals.
B. Because it allows them to create 3D printed organs.
C. Because it allows them to study biology using their bodies.
D. Because it allows them to control the hardness of organs.
62. This chart (图表) shows how the research team made the printed organs close to the real one. Which is the missing part?
A. Scientists added special materials to control the 3D printed organ’s texture.
B. Scientists asked doctors for their opinions.
C. Scientists helped medical students to learn animal organs.
D. Scientists added more things after the organs are printed.
63. Which sentence can be put in ▲ ?
A. Scientists think hydrogel is not good enough.
B. The printed organs are very close to real organs.
C. The research team wants to grow new organs from old ones.
D. Doctors will use 3D printed organs on animals.
64. What can you infer from the passage?
A. Humans can live longer because of 3D printed organs.
B. 3D printed organs can really help medical students learn better.
C More 3D printed organs may be transplanted in the future.
D. 3D printed organs can work better than human organs.
65. In which magazine can we read the passage?
A. Medical Science. B. Local food. C. Traveling around the world. D. Computer science.
【答案】61. B 62. A 63. B 64. C 65. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了3D打印技术改变了医生的学习方式,利用3D打印技术于器官移植。

细节理解题。根据“Last year, a research team from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics…As the ‘ink’ for printing, hydrogel has helped the research team create 3D printed organs (器官), including the brain and heart.”可知,3D打印正在改变医生学习方式的原因是它允许他们创造3D打印器官,故选B。
【62题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The team added special material to the hydrogel to create different textures for each organ.”可知,研究团队通过添加特殊材料来控制3D打印器官的质地,使其更接近真实器官。图表中缺失部分应为A。故选A。
【63题详解】
推理判断题。根据“A doctor who tried these models said that he wouldn’t know they were not real if he was not told.”可知,后文提到了一位医生认为打印出来的器官与真实器官非常接近,因此选项B适合放在此处,故选B。
【64题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Experts expect that this technology will help more patients within a few years, according to CNN.”可知,文章提到3D打印器官在医学教学和研究上的优势,并期待未来更多移植应用,故选C。

The Bai people use a very old way, tie-dry (扎染), to dye clothes. Tie-dye has a history of nearly 1500 years. During the Tang and Song dynasties, people chose tie-dyed clothes as gifts.
The Mongolian people live in the Mongolian yurts (蒙古包). These yurts are large round tents and their tops look like umbrellas. They are the traditional homes of the Mongolian people. The yurts are usually white because they’re made of sheep’s wool. And white is a symbol of happiness.
The Zhuang people like singing even more than talking. On the third day of the third Chinese lunar (阴历) month, they hold a big singing festival. It is thrilling and wonderful. Men and women singers sing in pairs. The winners are the “king” and “queen” of singing.

In the past, if doctors wanted to learn about the human body, they don’t have many choices: studying from books, or doing research on animals or plants. Well, time has changed. Now, there’s something new called 3D printing, and it’s making big changes in how doctors learn.
Last year, a research team from the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences invented hydrogel (水凝胶), a new material for 3D printing. As the “ink” for printing, hydrogel has helped the research team create 3D printed organs (器官), including the brain and heart. People found it hard to print the complex structures inside human organs before. It’s also hard to control the organs’ hardness (硬度). Luckily, this team has managed to make meaningful progress in these two aspects. ▲ . A doctor who tried these models said that he wouldn’t know they were not real if he was not told.
On the other hand, the research team had another problem to solve. Human organs have different textures (质地). For example, our brains are the softest. The team added special material to the hydrogel to create different textures for each organ. They also printed tiny holes and channels (通道) inside the organs. This will help medical students learn better. Compared to human organs and animal organs, 3D printed organs are also cheaper and more acceptable for medical students.
Apart from doing research, scientists are also working on 3D printed organs used in organ transplants (移植). Hydrogel cannot be used because the human body will fight against it. But scientists are looking for other materials that can grow inside the human body. Currently, a bladder (膀胱) has been successfully transplanted using 3D printing because it’s one of the simplest organs. Experts expect that this technology will help more patients within a few years, according to CNN.
61. Why is 3D printing changing how doctors learn?
A. Because it allows them to practice on live animals.
B. Because it allows them to create 3D printed organs.
C. Because it allows them to study biology using their bodies.
D. Because it allows them to control the hardness of organs.
62. This chart (图表) shows how the research team made the printed organs close to the real one. Which is the missing part?
A. Scientists added special materials to control the 3D printed organ’s texture.
B. Scientists asked doctors for their opinions.
C. Scientists helped medical students to learn animal organs.
D. Scientists added more things after the organs are printed.
63. Which sentence can be put in ▲ ?
A. Scientists think hydrogel is not good enough.
B. The printed organs are very close to real organs.
C. The research team wants to grow new organs from old ones.
D. Doctors will use 3D printed organs on animals.
64. What can you infer from the passage?
A. Humans can live longer because of 3D printed organs.
B. 3D printed organs can really help medical students learn better.
C. More 3D printed organs may be transplanted in the future.
D. 3D printed organs can work better than human organs.
65. In which magazine can we read the passage?
A. Medical Science. B. Local food. C. Traveling around the world. D. Computer science.
