29、ters are fast being everyday devices in the United States. Three-D printers are used to make everything from automobile parts to bone replacements for human patients. American research scientists are now working on creating replacements for living tissue. Researchers at the Medical University of Sou
30、th Carolina have been working on creating and manufacturing living tissue since xx. This process is called biofabrication (生物制造). It requires special printing equipment and a special kind of ink. Traditional printers require ink to produce an image or design on a piece of paper. For their three-D pr
31、inter, the South Carolina researchers prepare plex nutritious solutions they call bio-inks. Bio-inks are made of proteins and glucose (葡萄糖), which normally provides energy for most cells of the body. The researchers also add living cells taken from the animal that will receive the new, printed tissu
32、e. The bio-inks are then added to a device that researchers call the Palmetto bio-printer. Sarah Grace Dennis is one of the researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina. She says new technology, like the Palmetto bio-printer, is a great help to the biofabrication process. “When I got here
33、 a year ago, we were printing acellular (非细胞的) bio-inks to see if patterns could be printed. And now we are printing skeletal muscle replicaimplants (骨骼肌肉复制品移植物) that we have been implanting into rats.” The bio-inks are placed in three dispensers (分配器), containers, inside the printer. Lasers control
34、 both the position of the printing surface and the places where the bio-ink is released. Michael Yost is a leader of the research team. He says the printing process is fully automated- machine-operated. He says that the Palmetto bio-printer makes it possible to create plex tissue types. The research
35、ers say bio-printing is still experimental. But they hope in a few years they may be able to print tissue to replace damaged human organs. However, there are still some concerns with biofabrication. Some scientists worry about how to get blood to the replacement tissue. The flow of blood is importan
36、t to keep the printed tissue alive. Michael Yost hopes that more people will believe in the benefits of biofabrication. “Tissue biofabrication is a reality, and it is a reality now, and if you e here and you get to see it. You cant touch it, but you will see it and think this is real. And this is re
37、ally human.” 41. What can we learn about 3-D printers from paragraph 1? A. They are gaining popularity quickly in the States. B. They are playing a bigger role around the world. A. They are bringing severe challenges to patients. D. They are mainly used to make simple things now.42. According to Sar
38、ah Grace Dennis, _. A. the biofabrication process has bee perfect now B. a-cellular bio-inks have been widely used in the US C. new technology has made the biofabrication process possible D. printing skeletal muscle replica implants is impossible at present 43.

A. can work perfectly without power B. can only be found in the United States C. has a bright future in medical application D. has already been used to treat the patients 44.

The price of the bio-printer is too high and most people cant afford it. D. Researchers cant find enough living cells of animals to make the bio-inks.
41、45. We can know from the passage that _. A. the 3-D printer has already been applied in treating patients B. the fast growing demand for biofabrication worries people C. the use of the bio-printer is spreading widely around the world D. special bio-inks are developed and bio-printing is experimented
42、 CPete Rose, the famous baseball player, whom I have never met, taught me something so valuable that changed my life. Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobbs all-time hits record. One reporter asked, “Pete, you only need 78 hits to break the record. How
43、many at-bats (轮到击球) do you think youll need to get the 78 hits?” Without hesitation, Pete said, “78.” The reporter yelled back, “Ah, e on, Pete. You dont expect to get 78 hits in 78 at-bats, do you?”Mr. Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply.
44、 “Every time I step up to the plate, I expect to get a hit! If I dont expect to get a hit, I have no right to step in the batters box in the first place! If I go up hoping to get a hit, then I probably dont have a prayer of getting a hit. It is the positive expectation that has gotten me all of the
45、hits in the first place.”When I thought about Pete Roses rule and how it was applied to everyday life, I felt a little embarrassed. As a business person, I was hoping to make my sales meet the quotas (定额). As a father, I was hoping to be a good dad. As a married man, I was hoping to be a good husban
46、d.The truth was that I was an adequate salesperson, I was not so bad as a father, and I was an okay husband. I immediately decided that being okay was not enough!
