I turned around and saw William, one of my students, who loved plants and always smiled. It was true. William was a joy in my class. When other students were having trouble in understanding the lessons, he always cheered them up and brought them bright moments. However, because of his poor grades, I couldn’t help worrying. I kept wondering if William could pass the exams because he didn’t make any progress in study. Things didn’t change until we started to study the life cycle of plants. As a class project, each child planted a sunflower. I did this every year with different results in different parts. At first, it was exciting for many of the students to plant the sunflowers. However, most kids had little patience for the growing part. They lost interest and forgot to look after the sunflowers except William. I’d never seen him show such great interest in class. Every afternoon, William got all the sunflowers watered. He even offered to care for them well during the summer holiday. To help the little sunflowers get plenty of sunlight, we carefully moved them to the perfect place behind the library with William. All of us hoped the twenty sunflowers could grow the best. About a month into the summer vacation, I happened to drive by the school. There, behind the library, stood William's sunflowers. I counted all twenty of them. They must have been at least 12 feet tall with faces to the sun. Looking at the sunflowers, I realized we teachers should trust what was planted in our children and tried our best to grow and look after it. This was also why I chose to be a teacher, I thought. At that moment, I knew I didn’t have to worry about William. And I believed that one day he would... 29. Why did the writer worry about William? A. He didn’t like plants. B. He had poor grades. C.

A. be a teacher like me B. forget to take care of the sunflowers C. make his grades poor D. blossom and shine like his sunflowers C Now people usually send photos to friends on computers and phones.

But three companies in the US are working together to print something much bigger. They’re creating a two-floor 3D-printed house by using a giant 3D printer. It will be a large house with three bedrooms. Usually, 3D-printing uses hot plastic (塑料) to make things: This time, the way is similar, but it uses concrete (混凝土). To print a two-floor house, there are special challenges. The biggest one is the size of the machine. It’s large and heavy and weighs over 12 tons. It will take the machine about 330 hours to finish printing the house. The two-year printing project didn’t start until last July and it is now about halfway finished. They are not trying to beat the clock. Instead, they’re using the house as a “big lab” to learn more about 3D-printed houses. They want to see how the concrete changes in different weather. They also want to find out the ways of making 3D-printing faster and cheaper. Now 3D-printing a house with concrete costs more than building a house with wood. That’s because the technology is new. With time, the costs of 3D-printed houses will go down. Companies will improve printers to create more houses quickly. 3D-printed concrete houses are stronger than houses built with wood. It can save money in the long run. Besides, fewer workers are needed. 36. What are the companies creating by using a giant 3D printer? ___________________________________________________ 37. What is the biggest challenge? ___________________________________________________ 38. How many hours will it take the machine to finish printing? ___________________________________________________ 39.
