2．A famous scientist who had made an important medical breakthrough was being interviewed．A newspaper （21）C asked him why he thought he was able to be much more creative than the average person．What made him so different from others？

This scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be （37）A to make mistakes．Instead，he learned that mistakes were just opportunities for learning something new，which was，after all，what （38）C experiments were all about．Even if the experiment didn't （39）D，we usually learned something from it．

17．A Terrible Surprise at the Beach  
A fun-filled day at the beach turned into horror for Alex Sun and his four-year-old son，John．The two were happily playing at Discovery Bay's main beach when Mr．Sun saw something sticking out of the sand next to John's foot．He stopped his son just as the boy was about to step on a 3.5-cm-long needle．
"John was barefoot．Think about what might have happened if he had stepped on that needle，"said Mr．Sun．"It's a terrible thing to imagine．"The Suns'experience shows how serious the pollution problem on the beach is．
"Discovery Bay has always been one of my favorite beaches，"says Mr．Sun，"but now I'll think carefully before letting my child play here again．He will surely have to put on shoes in the future，and I won't take him into the water．This used to be such a beautiful place．The water was clean and blue with no pollution at all．Now there is garbage everywhere．If nothing is done，a family day at the beach could be a thing of the past．"
Stephen Chan，a member of a team that has been set up to study the pollution situation there，says，"Medical waste can never be controlled completely．We already know that it is not coming from government hospitals and clinics so we are checking to see if it is coming from private doctors．One of our problems is that there are no laws to help us deal with the people responsible for this pollution．"
"If there were stricter laws，people might think twice about throwing garbage into sea，"says Maggie Tang of Friends of the Earth．Mr．Chan，however，thinks that stricter laws alone will not solve the problem．"We cannot keep an eye on every inch of the coastline，"he says．"There will always be people who throw dangerous garbage．I believe it is mainly a matter of education．If people would accept responsibility for what they do with their garbage，we would be much closer to a solution．"
36．Which of the following pictures shows"a barefoot"？C

37．What does Mr．Sun think of the beach now？B
A．Unpopular
B．Unsafe
C．Deserted
D．Crowded．
38．According to Stephen Chan，what is the best way to solve the problem at the beach？D
A．Improve technology to get rid of garbage．
B．Hire cleaners to collect dangerous garbage．
C．Make laws that punish people polluting the environment．
D．Educate people the dangers of polluting the environment．
7．Dear David，
I'm glad you would like to share your feelings with me．It's hardly surprising that your feelings of not being"grown up"have come on strongly at this point in your life，just before you're about to become a father．You are asking：will I make a good father？How will I cope？Should I have brought another little person into the world？Can I provide for it？Heeelp!I think nearly every sensitive about-to-be-parent must have these occasional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy （不适） before the birth and it would be most unusual if you didn't share them．
It's difficult，honestly，to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to．A hen-pecked （惧内的） boss may feel like a seven-year-old when he's at home．But as he walks through the office door，and knows he's going to be surrounded by staff looking to him for advice，he grows into a fully mature man．And I think it's a mistake to imagine that we all feel，as we age，a kind of progression of states，from the baby to the adult．Most people feel，on Tuesday，about three years old，and on a Wednesday，around 80．I remember feeling very grown-up at eight，a time when I was weighed down with responsibility．These days，much older，I can，in the company of people I feel at ease with，feel like a young girl．
There's a common remark that"all men are little boys"，but it's not true．It's more true that men often behave like little boys．But nearly all people，at some moments in their lives，are capable of great maturity．
Once your baby arrives，you'll soon feel less childlike，or rather，less often．When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug，the adult in you will rise up to prevent it．You'll see you have very little in common with a needy child，particularly if it's looking to you for comfort and support．
Comfort yourself，David，with two truths．One is that your friends laugh when they talk about this subject because they，like you，feel frightened．And remember that people who haven't grown up don't go around talking about the fact that they don't feel grown-up．
Hope my advice will be helpful and good luck to you and your little one．
Sincerely Yours，
Miss Advice

14．Imagine having an idea，drawing it on paper，bringing it to a store and seeing it turned into a physical object．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 ShopLLC in Los Angeles two years ago．The store is filled with tools like a laser cutter，an industrial sewing machine and 3D printers．Bryan Jaycox requires 15an hour to print an object．He also charge safe depending on the size of the object and up to 50 an hour for design and labor services．
    The Jaycoxs also offer 3D printing classes for anyone who is interested．One of the students in a recent class was Ki Chong Tran．He plans to open a 3D printing business in Cambodia．"The demand has been amazing．It's been much more than I would have imagined，"said Ki Chong Tran．
"I think 3D printing is going to be huge． It's going to make a huge impact on society as a whole，"he added．
    Mr Jaycox predicts that within five years，3D printing technology could become more consumer friendly．
    But Ki Chong Tran says even current technology can make a difference in a developing country like Cambodia．"With 3D printing you can give them tools，and you put it in their hands so they are responsible more for their own development． 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．
