At the airport, one of my partners greeted me with a broad smile. “Welcome to Cuba!” he
exclaimed in perfect English, giving me a strong handshake and a hug. The next day, we drove to
the research center where he worked. In the conference room, each of us gave a presentation
about science and what we hoped to learn from the study of Cuban rivers.
Then, we toured every lab in the building. I met scientists, technicians, secretaries, students,
and the cook. Some spoke English, and others communicated with me in Spanish while my
cooperator translated. I was introduced to each person in their center, and that was what I
remembered most.
Then we met again to brainstorm. Together, we studied maps carefully to plan how we were
going to collect samples. Had it not been for the Cubans, I would have been unaware that the
maps I had were outdated and wrong. They left out reservoirs, which was a problem because had
we sampled downstream of them, our results would have been misled.
On the last night of the trip, we searched for a restaurant that could seat all 14 of us at one
table because that’s what teams do--sitting together. When a restaurant couldn’t seat the team
without splitting us up, my partners insisted that we move on and find another restaurant with a
large enough table.
In 26 years as a professor, I’ve always tried my best to treat my students as valued partners. I
have never been a fan of the grade system in the academic world. I urge everyone working with
me to feel as though they are part of a team. But my Cuban partners take teamwork to another
level entirely. They make it clear--through actions, both big and small--that all team members are
valued, that everyone is equal, and that true team work contributes to better science.
I returned to the United States as a changed scientist. Now, I spend more time listening and
making sure that everyone’s voice is heard.

Robots have learned to drive on Mars, carry out brain operation and defeat master chess
players. But when it comes to baking, making tasty desserts is far from a piece of cake. After
many failed attempts, US researchers have successfully 3D printed a cherry cheesecake, although
the outcome is unlikely to trouble the world's dessert masters.
In the latest experiment, researchers tried various cheesecake designs. In early attempts,
which involved simply adding ingredients one by one, the team found that the cake quickly
turned into a mixture. Through trial and error, they discovered that a more architectural solution
was needed. Walls of biscuit base were required throughout the cake to hold the softer
ingredients, while triangular (三角的) biscuit supports on the inside were necessary to keep the
cake from falling apart. "To print the cake successfully, we need to put the ingredients together in
a careful way," said the team leader Cooper.
Although much work is still needed to collect data and improve the designs, scientists are
hopeful that once mastered, 3D printing could replace traditional cooking, allowing food to be
adapted to different nutritional needs. "We have a huge problem with the low nutrition of
processed foods," said Cooper. "3D food printing will still produce processed foods, but perhaps
the silver lining will be, for some people, a better control of nutrition based on personalized
needs."
The team said 3D printing could also allow chefs to create entirely new food experiences,
with flavours and textures (质地) placed very precisely. "It is particularly practical for the plant-
based meat market, where texture and flavour need to be carefully designed to taste like real
meats," said Cooper. And, with more concern about food safety, food prepared with less human
handling could lower the risk of food-related illness and the spread of disease. According to
Cooper, this seems like a win-win solution for all of us.
18.Why does the author mention robots in paragraph 1?
A. To show the disadvantages of 3D printing.
B. To introduce the popularity of using robots.
C. To stress the difficulty of 3D printing desserts.
D. To explain the function of robots in different areas.
19.What is the key to the success of the 3D printed cheesecake?
A. The thickness of biscuit walls. B. The flexibility of inside support.
C. The unique taste of ingredients. D. The structural design of the cake.
20.What do the underlined words "the silver lining" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. The side effect. B. The main reason. C. The positive aspect. D. The best solution.
21.What is the last paragraph mainly about concerning 3D printed food?
A. Promising markets. B. Additional benefits. C. Practical concerns. D. Technical challenges.

As we all know, most animals only perform tricks when given treats. However, Kim, the
world’s first spider to learn a skill, needs no stimulus (刺激物) to do what she loves—jumping
from different heights and distances— upon the instruction of a team of scientists from the
University of Manchester.
While the idea of training a spider might sound evil, the researchers’ motives were purely
scientific. They are trying to unlock the secrets behind the jumping spiders’ extraordinarily high
leaps to catch prey (猎物) or to escape their enemies. A better understanding of the spiders’ leaps
would help experts develop more efficient flying and jumping robots.
The scientists found that Kim could gather enough force in her legs to jump more than six
times the length of her own body from a stationary position. What was even more amazing was
that she always landed perfectly. For shorter distances, Kim used a lot of energy, resulting in
quick leaps, which the researchers believe probably increases her chances of catching fast-
moving prey. The farther the distance, the less extra energy was used, resulting in slower but
precise leaps.
Previous studies have indicated that spiders use both their muscles and hydraulic (液压的)
pressure—a mechanism by which blood is transferred to their extended legs—to push them off
the ground. However, in Kim’s case, her leg muscles alone appeared to be generating enough
force for the liftoff. The researchers now intend to do further research to comprehend fully not
just the spiders’ jumping technique, but that of other insects as well. “We are familiar with robots
that are aimed at taking over human functions, but there are millions of insects in the world that
perform specific functions that we have interest in adapting to robotics,” says Nabawy, the
leading engineer of the researching team.
22. What is the purpose of scientists’ researching the jumping spider?
A. To have fun and relax. B. To help develop robots.
C. To get rid of spiders. D. To protect this species.
23. Why did Kim use a lot of energy for short leaps?
A. To jump high enough. B. To land more precisely.
C. To catch fast-moving prey. D. To increase chances of escape.
24. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refers to?
A. Jumping technique. B. Leg muscle. C. Further research. D. Energy for liftoff.
