What will the world of the future be like？ There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050． Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow．
When we dream about the future， many like to think of owning a personal flying car． The advantages are obvious． This technology would allow total freedom of movement． We could fly at 480 km per hour， avoiding traffic lights and busy roads．
However， some people believe there will be problems with traffic control． If the cars become popular， there is likely to be air traffic jam． Another big problem is mechanical failure． What will happen if the cars stop working？ These are problems we must expect if flying cars become a reality．
Three﹣dimensional printing is another new technology with exciting possibilities． 3D printers are used to build an object with liquid plastic．They build the object layer by layer until it is complete． Car companies already use 3D printers to make life﹣size models of car parts， and medical companies use the technology to make man﹣made body parts． As we move into the future， 3D printing will revolutionize the way we shop， the way we manufacture and the way we treat sick people． The disadvantage is that such equipment will be extremely expensive．
So in the future， we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes.Although there are some problems to solve before this will be possible， we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people．
（1）What is the passage mainly about？
| A． |
Environmental protection． |
| B． |
The world of tomorrow． |
| C． |
Advantages of technology． |
（2）What do we learn from the passage？

Some people think technology development may bring new problems． |
| B． |
3D printing can bring great changes to our life and its equipment is cheap． |
| C． |
The flying cars won't bring air traffic jam even when they become popular． |
（3）What is the correct structure of the passage？ （P I＝Paragraph1）
| A． |
|
| B． |
|
| C． |
|
（4）What does the underlined word "they" refer to？

Many people love travelling to different countries， but if you plan to go abroad， you should know how to behave in different situations around the world．
Most travellers enjoy meeting new people， but sometimes you can be rude without saying anything． In Russia， you should never shake hands in a doorway， and if you're travelling in Thailand， never touch people's heads or point your feet at people． When the Japanese meet new people， they like giving business cards﹣﹣but you should read the card carefully， not just put it in your pocket．
In most countries in Europe people expect a lot of eye contact when you talk to them， but in many Asian countries a lot of eye contact seems unfriendly．And in South America people usually stand quite close to each other when they talk， but in countries like the USA you need to give people more personal space． Also， it's rude to interruptJapanese people while they are talking to you． You must wait until they finish before you start speaking．
In restaurants in China you can leave a bit of food on your plate， it's OK to start smoking before other people finish eating， which you mustn't do in the UK． When in India， remember to eat with your right hand． Also avoid leaving empty bottles on the dinner table in Russia﹣﹣that's bad luck．
When you're travelling in Asia， if someone invites you to his or her home， don' t forget to take off your shoes when you arrive． And if you visit an Arab family's home， don' t admire anything valuable because your host will feel he should give it to you as a present．
With so much to think about， it's not surprising that many people prefer going on holiday in their own countries﹣﹣or you might just decide to stay at home!
（1）Which of the following statements is TRUE？
A． We can admire anything valuable in an Arab family's home．
B． In China， people cannot smoke before other people finish eating．

跟随 |
| B． |
打断 |

附和 |

| B． |
④①②③ |
| C． |
③④①② |
（4）What does the writer want to tell us？
| A． |
Practice makes perfect． |
| B． |
Where there is a will， there is a way． |
| C． |
When in Rome． do as the Romans do． |

Dear Rita， How are you？ Last time you asked me about the greatest invention in my eyes． I have also discussed it with my best friends， Anna， Sue and Kris． We have different ideas． Anna thinks it is the high﹣speed railway； Sue， the shared bike； Kris， the online shopping； and I prefer the Internet． The Internet is just like a net， and it connects us with the world． In the past， it was nearly impossible for people to communicate immediately with people in other countries． They had to spend a long time to reach their destinations （目的地）， and not everyone could do that． But the Internet has made the impossible possible． Now we can communicate with foreigners online． The Internet also helps us know what is happening around the world， and has made our life and work easier． In recent years， shopping online is very popular． We can just stay at home and buy what we need online． We can also do online office work and distance education． Besides， we can watch movies， listen to music and even play games to relax ourselves on the Internet． So， I think that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions． It has changed our world! Although there are still many problems with the Internet， they will be solved in the near future． As a student we should make good use of the Internet! Yours， Martin |
