The German company said 5,000 of the "Futurecraft 4D" shoes will be available at retail stores in the fall arid winter.As it is pressed for time,it still plans to start mass producing them next year and expects to have made more than 100,000 pairs by the end of 2018.The company would not disclose where the shoes will be manufactured.
Adidas cooperated with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon to create the shoe,which uses a new technology called digital light synthesis（合成）.
Although the common 3D printed materials are often rigid（僵硬的）,the new materials are flexible with Silicon Valley-based start up Carbon's technology.
The technology works by using UV lasers to project a pattern for a midsole（鞋底夹层）liquid.It tums the liquid into a solid and the result is a flexible,but more durable midsole.
The technology could make the most of the time and money to produce the shoes in large quantities which may be loved by humans in the future.
"We can produce up to 100 times faster than 3D printing and additive manufacturing processes,"an Adidas spokesperson told CNNTech.

I was reading an article in a book while I came across a word I didn’t know. “Dad, what is the meaning of the word?” My dad, as he usual did after work, was watching his most favorite show. “You have the dictionary, don’t you?” he shot back. He didn’t even look up my face. I went back my room, and there on my study table is that dictionary. I looked it up and found it’s exact meaning. Ten year have passed and I still use that dictionary, along with the lesson I received earlier in life from my old man: to be independent.

My community and suite are still recovering from the disaster that struck recently. A wall of storms with hurricane force winds struck late on a Friday evening knocking down trees, blocking roads, damaging homes, and destroying power lines.
Hundreds of people suddenly found themselves in the dark without water, electricity, air conditioning, telephones, the Internet, and television. They found themselves cut off from the modem world enduring uncomfortable heat.
The most amazing thing happened, however, as the reality of the crisis sank in: it brought out the best in us. While there were a few acts of selfishness and stealing they were covered by the wave of love that came from the hearts of so many.
People shared their food, ice, and gas. People who still had power opened their homes to those who had none. People rushed out to clear roads and homes. Selfless power crews worked around the clock to repair the damage and restore electricity. People gathered to talk, share hugs and offer words of hope and faith that God would see them through it all. Strangers came together as one family to help each other in this time of great need.
It was such a joy seeing all these people acting like true Children of God under the most trying circumstances. Life's disasters often strike all of us. No one is spared. We all get hurt and challenged. How we respond to them, though, is up to us. We can let them bring out the worst or the best in us. We can react to them like demons of selfishness or like angels of love.
May you always bring the best from your heart and soul to whatever life may throw at you then May you live all of your days here with so much love that Heaven sings and God smiles.
1.How were the community and state affected by the storm?
A. Power lines were restored. B. People were blocking the roads.
C. Electricity supply was cut off. D. The unbearable heat killed people.
2.Why did the reality bring out the best in people?
A. Because there were no acts of selfishness and stealing.
B. Because people were busy repairing the damaged roads.
C. Because Children of God got all of people together here.
D. Because people are only too ready to help others selflessly.
3.What docs “trying” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. easy. B. difficult.
C. convenient. D. comfortable.
4.What suggestion does the writer give when it comes lo difficulties?
A. Throw your heart to life.
B. Leave your soul to demons.
C. Face difficulties with love.
D. Choose whatever you like.

We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job.1..
So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”
Cheer up! 2.. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3.. Don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief.
4. . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience. If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5..
A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.
B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.

UrbanSpace in midtown New York is a place where white-collars come for lunch during their workdays.For the past a few months,customers have always lined up before a kiosk which sells a very authentic Chinese food in north China—Jianbing,or the Chinese crepe.
The kiosk is branded "Mr.Bing",and is owned by Brian Goldberg,who is born and raised in New York.Goldberg is very involved with Chinese culture.He was a Chinese major back in college in Boston,and studied in China 20 years ago.
"When I went to China,I just love Jianbing so much.It tastes so good.It's hot.It's fresh.It's customizable.They make it how you like it.When I come back to America,I can't find it. So I make it!"said Goldberg.
Goldberg's Jianbing plan is not a whim（突发的想法）.It was the theme of his business plan when he was a MBA in Columbia University.As a student,he didn't have enough funds to start.It was until five years ago that he made the first step in Hong Kong.To open the Hong Kong shop,Goldberg spent many weekends flying back and forth from Beijing,Tianjin,and Shandong Province,the origins of Chinese Jianbing.
After tasting tons,he focused on one kiosk in Beijing,Xiaoyan Jianbing,whose chef offered to teach him and his Hong Kong employees the recipe.In Hong Kong,"Mr.Bing" was fairly popular,but Goldberg always thought of going back home.
Two years ago,he moved back to New York and put himself into his Jianbing shop. Selling Jianbing to New Yorkers is surely not the same with selling them to Chinese.To cater to the taste of Americans,Goldberg applied several changes to the recipe after trial and errors.
The Jianbing as you see today at Mr.Bing's is a revised version: fried wonton skin is used to replace dough stick（油条）,and a signature Chinese spicy sauce instead of fermented bean curd,and there is meat,which Americans love.
Even with one storefront,Goldberg is selling hundreds of Jianbing each day.He is confident this Chinese snack can be something."Anyway,Americans didn't know much about sushi or burritos（墨西哥玉米面卷饼）back twenty years.But now they are having them all the time."Goldberg said.The great goal of Goldberg is bringing Jianbing to the world and establishing his own signature brand with "Mr.Bing".
1.Which of the following is NOT a possible factor for Americans' love of Chinese Jianbing?
A. It tastes delicious. B. Its price is very cheap.
C. It is hot and fresh. D. It has been improved.
2.The underlined sentence 'It's customizable.' in Paragraph 3 means that .
A. customers can make orders of Jianbing on the Internet
B. customers can make Jianbing by themselves very easily
C. it can be made according to customers' tastes and needs
D. it can be seen distributed among every corner of the USA
3.From Goldberg's experience we can conclude that .
A. he once studied Chinese in Columbia University 20 years ago
B. he takes possession of several storefronts in Hong Kong,China
C. before setting up his business of Jianbing he did market research
D. he has bought the parent of recipe from Chinese Xiaoyan Jianbing
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A. A man's duty of spreading Chinese culture
B. Jianbing of Mr.Bing attracts New Yorkers
C. A kind of traditional Chinese food—Jianbing
D. Chinese snack can be something in the USA

Whether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.
While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions（伙伴） than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.
The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver general answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.
Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.
Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to assist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.
The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but with us,” said Breazeal.
1.How are social robots different from household robots?
A. They can control their emotions.
B. They are more like humans.
C. They do the normal housework.
D. They respond to users more slowly.
2.What can Oshbot work as?
A. A language teacher.
B. A tour guide.
C. A shop assistant.
D. A private nurse.
3.We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will ______.
A. train employees B. be our workmates
C. improve technologies D. take the place of workers
4.What does the passage mainly present?
A. A new design idea of household robots.
B. Marketing strategies for social robots.
C. Information on household robots.
D. An introduction to social robots.
