ARecently when chemicals contaminated (污染) a river in China’s northern Shanxi Province, it took authorities five days to report the incident. And while the mayor offered an apology and officials at chemical plants were dismissed, the spill(泄露) ended up affecting drinking water in several cities downstream.Official statistics indicate China has around 1,700 water pollution accidents each year, and up to 40 percent of the country’s rivers are seriously polluted.Beijing is one place where the debate over water quality and quantity is coming to a head.“ Of the more than 100 rivers that there are now in Beijing, only two or three can be used for tap water --- and those are the ones that the government in Beijing is protecting,” says Zhao Feihong, a water researcher at the Beijing Healthcare Association. “Those are the ones that we can use water from, the rest of the rivers if they have not dried up, then they are polluted by discharge(排放).”Zhao and her husband, who is also a water researcher, recently became the focus of state-media online outlets after admitting they have not let Beijing’s tap water touch their lips in 20 years.Their story drew attention just as Beijing’s city government began releasing water quality statistics --- long treated as a state secret --- for the first time.According to Zhao, the move is a step in the right direction.“The fact that it can be disclosed(公开) is an improvement for the common people who will better understand the water that they drink,” she says. “So this is a relatively good thing, but I think that publicizing this figure is not enough.”Instead of periodically releasing statistics, Zhao says, the government should let the public know immediately what to do if something affects the drinking water.1.

This is now possible with the help of 3D printers. Such machines were once used just by universities and big companies．But now, stores with 3D printing services are appearing around the United States.Bryan Jaycox and his wife opened The Build Shop LLC in Los Angeles two years ago. The store is filled with tools like a laser cutter, an industrial sewing machine and 3D printers. The Jaycoxs also offer 3D printing classes and services for anyone who is interested.“I think 3D printing is going to be huge. It's going to have a huge effect on society as a whole.” One of the students in a recent class was KiChong Tran．He plans to open a 3D printing business in Cambodia.3D printing services are becoming available for American consumers. The UPS Store is a nationwide retailer (零售商) that provides shipping, copying and other services. The UPS Store recently put 3D printers in three of its independently-owned stores. Burke Jones owns one of the stores in San Diego.“The demand has been amazing．It's been much more than I would have imagined.” The UPS Store plans to add 3D printers in three more stores.At The UPS Store, the cost of the object depends on the amount of materials used. The store charges up to $95 an hour to design the object with computer software that creates a digital file to guide the printer.Mr Jaycox predicts that within five years, 3D printing technology could become more consumer friendly. But KiChong Tran says even current technology can make a difference in a developing country like Cambodia.“With 3D printing you can give them tools, you put it in their hands so they are responsible more for their own development and they learn skills beyond just learning English and becoming a tour guide or something like that or working at a bank．You can actually create things that give value to the world,” said Ki Chong Tran.He says it's not just Cambodia but anywhere where there is a 3D printer, it can turn a good idea into reality.8. The purpose of the passage is to ______________.A. attract consumers to buy 3D printersB. explain the importance of 3D printingC. describe the rapid development of technologyD. introduce a new technique --- 3D printing9. The Build Shop LLC is a store _______________.A. offering 3D printing classes and servicesB. known for tools like laser cutters and 3D printersC. promoting 3D printers and provides shipping and copyingD. selling sewing machines and services for 3D printing10.

KiChong Tran’s attitude towards the development of 3D printing technology is _________.A. positiveB. objectiveC. uncertainD. criticalDA person's nose is important for breathing and smelling. The nose is also used in many popular expressions.Some people are able to lead other people by the nose. For example, if a wife leads her husband by the nose, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.Some people are said to be hard-nosed. They will not change their opinions easily. If someone is hard-nosed, chances are that he will never pay through the nose, or pay too much money, for an object or service.It is always helpful when people keep their nose out of other people's business. They do not interfere. The opposite of this is someone who noses around all the time. This kind of person is interested in other people's private matters. He is considered nosy.More problems can develop if a person looks down his nose at someone or something. The person acts like something is unimportant or worthless. This person might also turn up his nose at something that he considers not good enough. This person thinks he is better than everyone else. He has his nose in the air.In school, some students thumb their nose at their teacher. They refuse to obey orders or do any work. Maybe these students do not know the correct answers. And my teacher often says, "If you put your heart into it, the answers should be right under your nose." It means something canbe found or seen easily.I think we have explained the nose expressions. What about ears? Well, I hope you are all ears or very interested in hearing more expressions. We might even put a bug in your ear or give you an idea about something. We also advise you to keep your ear to the ground. This means to be interested in what is happening around you and what people are thinking.If you are a good person, you will lend an ear to your friends. You will listen to them when they have a problem they need to talk about.12. If we say a man paid through the nose, we mean _____________.A. he judged the quality of things by smellingB. he bought something very expensiveC. he bought something he dislikedD. he overpaid for something he bought13.
