Baidu, China's leading search engine company, has unveiled its own eyewear called Baidu Eye. It is said to be a different product from Google Glass in terms of functionality.
The company demonstrated a working prototype on September 3 at its annual Technology Innovation Conference in Beijing. It bears a similarity to Google Glass, but it has no screen. Instead, the device uses a camera to scan objects, and focuses on analyzing information around its user and beaming that to a smartphone.
Baidu says the device is designed to support image search. The company's CEO Robin Li believes in five years' time, people will get used to searching by image and audio rather than text. Li has given an example of how one can take advantage of Baidu Eye, "If you are in a shopping mall and come across a woman whose skirt looks really attractive, you take a photo of her skirt using Baidu Eye, and you'll get to know where to buy one for yourself."
According to Kaiser Kuo, Baidu's director of international communications, Baidu Eye can also recognize voice and gesture, "You can use voice commands, or gesture commands - like expanding to zoom, or circling an object in your field of view with your finger."
Baidu is yet to announce a release date or marketing plans for Baidu Eye.

   Roby Mini is just 40 centimeters tall, has a large round screen for a head and has been designed to help senior citizens living alone.
   Manufactured by robotics company Shanghai PT Info, the brightly colored robot, which costs 5,000 yuan ($790), was launched on Aug 14 to help entertain and monitor elderly people.
   In Shanghai last year, the number of registered residents at least 60 years old was 4 million. That was nearly 30 percent of the population. By 2018, the figure is projected to rise to 5 million.
   With many living alone, robots such as Roby Mini can help play a crucial role in caring for the elderly. "It will change the way people interact with digital products," Hong says.
   Founded in May, Shanghai PT Info had already done the groundwork. In fact, the research team spent three years developing the speech recognition system before the firm was officially launched.
   With 360-degree wheels hidden under its body, Roby Mini can follow a person through face recognition and strike up a conversation, tell jokes or provide information.
   The robot also works as a computer terminal, supplying weather information, ordering groceries online and even booking taxis. Roby Mini can be connected to other gadgets as well, such as smart wristbands or magnetic devices on doors.
   Roby Mini can also connect an elderly owner to a doctor through its high-definition screen.Already Shanghai PT Info is talking to three community hospitals in Shanghai's Minhang district. Since the robot is linked to the Internet, it can support long-distance audio and video calls.
   Mass production started this month and Shanghai PT Info plans to manufacture 200,000 units this year.
   But the future is not easy for Shanghai PT Info. Earlier this year, Flyingwings Intelligent Robot Technology (Shanghai) introduced a machine with sensors that will ring an alarm when an elderly person falls down.Tianjin ShangjiuShengyuan Technology Group also developed a robot for seniors in 2014. Owners can turn on the lights and air-conditioning units by pressing buttons on the machine.It can also remind elderly owners to take pills, and inform them of hospital checkups and family birthdays.

   I am very happy to share my story about breast enlargement in Thailand. Anyone who is not sure about breast enlargement should read this story first.
   Firstly, I was amazed at the level of care I received at the Thailand private hospital. It was like being in a luxury hotel. The nursing staffs were also better than those who I have ever met in all my years in America. Not only were they professional, but kinder and more patient than Western nurses.
   The hospital food was excellent, so I was able to choose from a large and varied Menu. In my private room, there was cable T. V., a fridge, a phone, and impressive views of Bangkok(曼谷). My Translator was able to communicate with me, and the plastic surgeons arranged the whole operation without me lifting a finger.
   The operation cost me a third of the price of the U. K. With the low cost of the air tickets and a holiday, it worked out at about half UK's price, because the cost in Thailand is so cheap.
   Combining a plastic surgery with a holiday in an amazing place is an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived in Bangkok airport, I felt relaxed and welcomed by the Plastic Surgery & Holiday team, it made me feel that I had friends here already.

   Where did the author have her breast-enlargement operation?
   A. In Thailand.
   B. In America.
   C. In U. K.

10. Was the author satisfied with the nursing staffs for her?
    A. No, because they were no better than America nurses.
    B. Yes, because they were more patient than Western nurses.
    C. No, because the care was very poor.
11. Which of the following statement is TRUE?
    A. The author was content with the food in the hospital.
    B. When the author was in the hospital, she lived in a public room.
    C. There was cable T. V., a bridge and a phone in the author’s room.
12. What does the underlined phrase lifting a finger mean in paragraph three?
    A. Doing something with only one finger.
    B. Helping with something.
    C. Carrying something.

13. Why did the author think her experience unforgettable?
    A. Because she had an operation there.
    B. Because she was satisfied with everything there.
    C. Because she was satisfied with the service and price there.

    In the grass, a baby duck was hatched (孵化) out in a college biology lab with a backward left foot. At the time, it probably wouldn’t have survived, if Mike Gary didn’t recommend a proper operation to cut off that bad foot.
    Months after the healing process, engineers at Novacopy Company produced a 3D printed model that would be used to create a prosthetic (修复的) foot for the duck. Considering that ABS plastics were not flexible enough for this type of exercise, the Novacopy company made a three-dimensionally modeled foot made of silicone, with the hope to create a permanent prosthesis(假肢) for the duck.
    It took just 13 hours to produce. This 3D prosthesis demonstrated the 3D technologies can be used not only for human application, but also in foreign subjects such as animals and other medical treatments.

    Where was the baby duck hatched out?
    A. In a college biology lab.
    B. In a back yard.

14. What was wrong with the baby duck?
    A. It didn’t survived.
    B. It was born with a backward left foot.
    C. Mike Gary cut off that bad foot.
15. Could ABS plastics be used to produce a 3D printed model that would be used to create a prosthetic foot for the duck?
    A. No, because ABS plastics were not flexible enough.
    B. Yes, but it could only be produced by Novacopy Company.
    C. Yes, because it was made of silicone.
16. How long did it take to create a permanent prosthesis for the duck?
    A. 10 hours.
    B. 13 hours.
    C. 30 hours.
17. What did the last sentence of this passage indicate?
    A. 3D technologies can be used only for human application.

    Passage 1 (教材课文原文)
    "The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly, making some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block uneven," reported ARN (Australian Radio Network) to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer. But the architects remain optimistic. The first few printed blocks are meant to be test pieces as they improve the process.
    It takes about a week to print a 3-meter high block right now. The project's leaders hope to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a year, and the entire house in less than 3 years.
    Ultimately, 3D Print Canal House is an architectural research project, one that is very much being conducted in the public eye: you can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site for 2.50 Euros.
    The top floors will become more ornate, for example, as newer techniques are incorporated. They'll explore the possibilities of 3D printing, like the honeycomb walls or an entire room recycled, redesigned, and built anew. Nobody's going to move into a 3D printed house soon, but, if anyone ever does, something might be learned from this experiment by the canal.
    According to the passage, the 3D printer can type with plastic evenly.
18. This 3D printer printed some blocks to test its work.
19. The project's leaders will finish the entire house in less than 3 years.
20. 3D Print Canal House is printed to live.
21. The canal house will be decorated more.

Scientists call this process “salinization” which means a mixture of salt and water. Salinization is reducing the world’s irrigated lands 1 to 2 percent every year.
But a farmer in the Netherlands is now using a mixture of sea and fresh water to grow healthy and tasty vegetables.

The Company Leading the Future of Farming
Here's a crazy idea: Combine bioprinting and tissue engineering to "print" animal products and tackle some of the planet's biggest problems. Animal farming, after all, accounts for about half of all human-caused greenhouse gases, taking place on one-third of the available, non-frozen land on Earth. All to feed people's appetites for 300 million tons of meat a year.
Modern Meadow is a Missouri-based startup that engineers tissues to create lab-grown edible meat, in a process that eliminates many of the negative environment effects associated with traditional livestock practices.
The company claims that by carefully layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure, in-vitro meat production becomes feasible. It’s set a short-term goal of printing a sliver of meat around two centimeters by one centimeter, and less than half a millimeter thick, which is edible.
The company explains in a submission to the United States Department of Agriculture: “The technology has several advantages in comparison to earlier attempts to engineer meat in vitro. The bio-ink particles can be reproducibly prepared with mixtures of cells of different type. Printing ensures consistent shape, while post-printing structure formation and maturation in the bioreactor facilitates conditioning.”
However, it admits that the road ahead is strewn with difficulties. “The consumer acceptance of such products may not be without challenges. We expect it will first appeal to culinary early-adopter consumers and the segment of the vegetarian community that rejects meat for ethical reasons. With reduction in price, it can reach the masses with religious restrictions on meat consumption (people restricted to Hindu, Kosher, Halal diets) and finally populations with limited access to safe meat production.”
Whatever the final outcome, lab-grown edible meat is no longer in the realm of science fiction. It is coming.

Animal farming is responsible for the occurrence of greenhouse gases.

2. Modern Meadow is a newly-started business which aims to make profits by producing lab-grown edible meat.
3. The method Modern Meadow adopted to produce in-virto meat is by layering mixtures of cells of different types in a specific structure.
4. There is no meat engineered outside living bodies before.
5. This lab-grown meat has already widely received by the masses.

   2050, the world's population to rise to 9 billion from just over 7 billion currently. Proponents of genetically modified foods say they are safe and can boost harvests in bad conditions by protecting against pests, weeds and drought. This, they argue, will be essential to meeting the needs of a booming population in decades to come and avoiding starvation.
   Doug Gurian-Sherman, senior scientist for the food and environment program at the Union of Concerned Scientists, an advocacy group, said genetic engineering for insect resistance has provided only a modest increase in yields since the 1990s and drought-resistant strains have only reduced losses from drought.
