I was selfish as a teenager. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college. I let my Mom and Dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didn’t change even when I went to college either. I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith and spirituality, it was only to increase my own happiness.

I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.

Still, I didn’t give up on happiness. I knew that there must be a way to find it. I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires. The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: it is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.

Carolyn Arends wrote: "The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets. The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing." So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.

Researchers are now using three-dimensional, or 3D printing to create models of the human heart to help heart specialists. The heart doctors can use the models to better help patients before an operation.

Surgeons（外科医生） regularly use digital images to explore the heart in close detail. But no two human hearts are alike. This led Matthew Bramlet, a children's heart expert, to create exact heart models from those images. He says the 3D models show information he cannot get in any other way. The 3D printed model adds a new dimension（侧面） to heart surgery, allowing surgeons to see faults that might not be readily apparent in digital images.

A 3D printer uses images from a digital display to create a physical model of a human heart. Pictures from medical tests like a CAT scan or an MRI scan are sent to a 3D printer to create a heart in a plaster or a clay form. The printer then constructs the heart, thin layer by thin layer. Dr. Bramlet says the model matches the real heart in every detail.

Dr. Bramlet has built model hearts for different kinds of heart operations. All of the operations were successful. In his first case, digital images showed only one tiny hole in a baby's heart. But the 3D printed model showed several faults that the baby was born with. Dr. Bramlet says those faults could not be seen easily in the images. The heart surgeon was able to change the type of surgery for the patient based on the 3D model. He added that 3D heart models saved time during heart operations.

Kathy Magliato is a heart surgeon. She welcomes the new technology. She says it could help her make better decisions before she operates on the hearts of her patients.

Matthew Bramlet continues to research the technology. He is working with the National Institute of Health to build a 3D library that includes heart models and images that others can use.

28. What’s the limitation of digital heart images?

A. A lack of close details.                  B. Inability to display faults.

C. Failure to show personal differences.       D. Inaccuracy in the size of the child’s heart.

29. What can the heart model created by 3D printing do?

A.  It can make faults readily apparent.            

B. It can conduct heart operations.

C. It can replace the human heart.    

D. It can serve as an alternative to a CAT scan.

30. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A. Dr.Bramlet wasted a lot of time in heart operations.

B. 3D heart models have not been used in surgery at present.

C. All of the operations were unsuccessful without 3D models.

D. The model showed faults previously unseen in the baby's heart.

31. How does Kathy Magliato feel about the 3D printing?

A. Supportive.         B. Tolerant.          C. Doubtful.           D. Negative.

D

The world’s first “Sky Pool” has been uncoated（曝光）-and it’ll give anyone a touch of dizziness（眩晕）, unless he or she is not bothered by heights.

Situated in the capital’s new riverside district beside Battersea Power Station, the glass pool, hanging 10 storeys, or 110 feet up as a bridge between two apartment buildings, is 25m long, 5m wide and 3m deep with a water depth of 1. 2m. Swimmers will be able to look down 35 meters to the street below as they take a dip, with only 20cm of glass between them and the outside world. It’s even got a bar, folding chairs and an orange garden.

The pool will be part of Embassy Gardens at Nine Elms, a huge￡15 billion building project beside the new American Embassy in south-west London. The project is creating thousands of apartments, the smallest of which are expected to cost nearly $1 million, and the pool will only be open to the apartments’ owners.

Embassy Gardens takes design inspiration from the Meatpacking District of New York with floor to ceiling windows and brick frontages. The designer, Sean Mulryan, desired to push the boundaries in the capability of construction and engineering and do something that had never been done before. The Sky Pool’s transparent structure is the result of significant advancements in technologies over the last decade.

The experience of the pool will be truly unique and it will feel like floating through the air in central London.

Those people lucky enough to swim there will have a perfect view of the Palace of Westminster and the London Eye. It will be a selling point for developers when the second stage of the development is released to market.

32. Who can swim in the Sky Pool?

A. Anyone at Nine Elms.

B. Visitors to London.

C. People living in Embassy Gardens.

D. Those who are not terrified of heights.

33. People lucky enough to swim in the Sky Pool can do the following except .

A. drinking with friends B. experiencing diving and surfing

C. appreciating the London Eye D. sitting in the orange garden

34. What do we know from the text?

A. The pool lies in the centre of London.

B. The pool is 25 metres above the ground.

C. The pool was similar to New York’s modern constructions.

D. The pool is helpful for selling apartments in Embassy Gardens.

35. We can infer from the text that ________ .

A. the apartments in Embassy Gardens are fairly expensive

B. the new American Embassy has been moved away

C. Nine Elms is a street in Embassy Gardens

D. building the pool is not a complex job

Dear Alice,

I’m glad to hear that you plan to study in a Chinese university. First, I would like to express my warmest welcome to you and I am sure you will have the most unforgettable experience during your stay here.

Since you are interested in Chinese culture, I suggest that you apply for Beijing University, which is one of the best universities in China. The reasons are as follows: first, it is located in Beijing, the center of Chinese culture, where foreigners can visit places of interest and taste Chinese traditional food. Second, the university’s literature major is perfect for you and you can know about China’s rich history. Third, the native Chinese atmosphere is beneficial to your spoken Chinese.

As for the preparation, you had better do some reading about China and know the city’s climate and living conditions in advance.

I sincerely hope your dream will come true and I am looking forward to seeing you in Beijing. Please turn to me if you have any further questions. Best wishes.

Li Hua
