In elementary schl, Glenn Camern was very aware f the challenges faced by his friend, Rger, wh was missing a hand. Nw he has built an artificial helper fr him.
The rbtic hand is called “Dexi”. Its each finger can mve independently. The strength and speed f the hand's “muscles” can be cntrlled. The fingers stp clsing when they cme acrss smething, allwing the hand t shake hands, fr example. He's als created a digital versin f this hand, which respnds n a cmputer screen. The system cnsidered unusual by experts is that it takes electrical signals frm a human brain and sends them t a cmputer. Camern managed t apply the brain interface（接口）after hundreds f experiments. Wearing a special headset, he can pen and clse the rbtic hand just by thinking. T make the hand clse, he “sees” a fist in his head. T pen the hand, he thinks abut the beep（嘟嘟声）.
In fact, Camern's first rbtic hand was 3D printed frm an nline rbt kit. Realizing the hand was t limited, he decided t build his wn. It was quite a challenge, but his new versin was better. It's als cheap, cmpared t many ther rbtic hand prjects. Mr. Camern says designing and building the hand is hard and finds prgramming cmputers easier. Then came the ne Rger is using.
Camern is wrking n a hand that can actually be used by a persn wh's lst a hand at present. He says the new hand will be simpler, because there wn't be as much space. T make up fr this, he's adding a mini camera and trying t make the hand smarter. He wants t let users think f a task and have the hand d it autmatically.
Camern encurages yung peple wh think they might want t d smething demanding and similar: “Yu just begin wrking twards it, taking ne little step at a time, purpseful and determined, sner r later yu're ging t get t where yu lng fr.”

Lifestyle Creep（LC）is when living expenses and unnecessary cst grw with incme. In bad cases f LC, this unnecessary spending can cut int savings.
LC is cmmn amng high earners, but anyne can-fall int this trap. Wh hasn't a reasn t eat ut mre ften every week after receiving a 1 r 2 percent raise? The temptatin（诱惑） f a mre cstly lifestyle is difficult t resist. If yu're making enugh mney t affrd a larger apartment, shuldn't yu mve t a larger ne?
Objectively, imprving yur standard f living as yur incme increases isn't a bad thing, but when that habit cuts int yur savings effrts, it can be a majr financial risk. As Katie Waters, a financial planner at Stable Waters Financial, says, “Smething's gt t give.”
If yu can, head ff LC frm the beginning by giving yur raise r bnus mney a purpse immediately. This can be t pay dwn debt, save fr a huse, r add t retirement accunts. This way, yu wn't be tempted t spend it n unnecessary things. If yu fear yu've already fallen victim t LC at any level, yu can still turn yur spending arund. If yu are putting all yur expenses n yur credit card, Waters recmmends rearranging, s nly rutine, fixed mnthly expenses are n the card. “The mnthly changeable csts—fd, clthing, persnal care, purchases fr the hme, the list ges n—are where yur mney slips away easily.” Waters says, “Calculate yur pssible savings each pay perid and put that mney int a separate. Checking accunt.”
“As with all things, the secret t managing yur finances is a cnstant effrt fr balance,” Waters says. “Have fun alng the way, but dn't put the cart befre the hrse.”
28. What d we knw abut LC?
A. It may affect everyne. B. It may increase savings.
C. It benefits high earners. D. It means reasnable cnsumptin.

30. Hw des the authr find LC?

Recently, a cmpany called SkyDrive gave a test f its new flying car, the SD-03. The small car flew at an altitude f arund 6 feet arund up t fur minutes. The SD-03 is pwered by batteries and has 8 mtrs, which lift it straight ff the grund. Since flying cars dn't use runways, they need t be able t take ff and land by ging straight up r dwn. Its breakthrugh was that a pilt was n bard. Tmhir Fukuzawa, wh leads SkyDrive, said, “Of the wrld's mre than 100 flying car prjects, nly a handful has succeeded with a persn n bard.”
The wrld's leading cmpanies are investing（投资）heavily t wrk n mre advanced flying cars f their wn. That includes airplane makers like Airbus and Being, car makers like Tyta, Hyundai, and Prsche, and ride services like Uber. Sme gvernments, including Japan's, are supprting the idea, hping that in the future, flying cars will be useful fr shrt trips like taxi rides in cities. Flying cars culd als save time in emergencies, and help reach places that can't be reached by rad.
Hwever, cntrlling a flying car is s cmplex that mst peple wn't be able t d it. Even SkyDrive's test flight was kept stable by an autmatic cmputer system, and a backup team std ready t cntrl the car frm the grund. Besides, safety is a majr prblem. What happens when a mtr fails? That's ne reasn the SD-03 has eight mtrs—as backups. All realities have led many cmpanies t take a wait-and-see apprach t develping flying cars. But peple wh believe in flying cars pint ut that cars and airplanes faced lts f challenges at first, t and that with time, many f the big prblems were settled eventually.
Mr. Fukuzawa wants SkyDrive t be able t fly tw passengers n trips f up t 3 miles by 2023. By 2050, he hpes peple will be able t fly anywhere inside Tky in just 10 minutes. “I think flying cars will becme nrmal in the near future,” he says.
32. What made the SD-03's test flight by SkyDrive special?
A. It was its first manned flying car. B. It landed withut using a runway.
C. It flew much lnger than expected. D. It was pwered by batteries.
33. What are the famus cmpanies like Airbus ding abut the flying car?
A. Develping it independently. B. Uniting t design it tgether.
C. Prmting it all ver the wrld. D. Persuading gvernments t invest it.
34. Which aspects des paragraph 3 mainly discuss abut develping the flying car?
A. The designs. B. Future tendencies. C. Different cmments. D. The challenges.
35. What's the authr's attitude t the flying car?
A. Skeptical B. Cnfident. C. Objective. D. Cnservative

In elementary schl, Glenn Camern was very aware f the challenges faced by his friend, Rger, wh was missing a hand. Nw he has built an artificial helper fr him.
The rbtic hand is called “Dexi”. Its each finger can mve independently. The strength and speed f the hand's “muscles” can be cntrlled. The fingers stp clsing when they cme acrss smething, allwing the hand t shake hands, fr example. He's als created a digital versin f this hand, which respnds n a cmputer screen. The system cnsidered unusual by experts is that it takes electrical signals frm a human brain and sends them t a cmputer. Camern managed t apply the brain interface（接口）after hundreds f experiments. Wearing a special headset, he can pen and clse the rbtic hand just by thinking. T make the hand clse, he “sees” a fist in his head. T pen the hand, he thinks abut the beep（嘟嘟声）.
In fact, Camern's first rbtic hand was 3D printed frm an nline rbt kit. Realizing the hand was t limited, he decided t build his wn. It was quite a challenge, but his new versin was better. It's als cheap, cmpared t many ther rbtic hand prjects. Mr. Camern says designing and building the hand is hard and finds prgramming cmputers easier. Then came the ne Rger is using.
Camern is wrking n a hand that can actually be used by a persn wh's lst a hand at present. He says the new hand will be simpler, because there wn't be as much space. T make up fr this, he's adding a mini camera and trying t make the hand smarter. He wants t let users think f a task and have the hand d it autmatically.
Camern encurages yung peple wh think they might want t d smething demanding and similar: “Yu just begin wrking twards it, taking ne little step at a time, purpseful and determined, sner r later yu're ging t get t where yu lng fr.”

Lifestyle Creep（LC）is when living expenses and unnecessary cst grw with incme. In bad cases f LC, this unnecessary spending can cut int savings.
LC is cmmn amng high earners, but anyne can-fall int this trap. Wh hasn't a reasn t eat ut mre ften every week after receiving a 1 r 2 percent raise? The temptatin（诱惑） f a mre cstly lifestyle is difficult t resist. If yu're making enugh mney t affrd a larger apartment, shuldn't yu mve t a larger ne?
Objectively, imprving yur standard f living as yur incme increases isn't a bad thing, but when that habit cuts int yur savings effrts, it can be a majr financial risk. As Katie Waters, a financial planner at Stable Waters Financial, says, “Smething's gt t give.”
If yu can, head ff LC frm the beginning by giving yur raise r bnus mney a purpse immediately. This can be t pay dwn debt, save fr a huse, r add t retirement accunts. This way, yu wn't be tempted t spend it n unnecessary things. If yu fear yu've already fallen victim t LC at any level, yu can still turn yur spending arund. If yu are putting all yur expenses n yur credit card, Waters recmmends rearranging, s nly rutine, fixed mnthly expenses are n the card. “The mnthly changeable csts—fd, clthing, persnal care, purchases fr the hme, the list ges n—are where yur mney slips away easily.” Waters says, “Calculate yur pssible savings each pay perid and put that mney int a separate. Checking accunt.”
“As with all things, the secret t managing yur finances is a cnstant effrt fr balance,” Waters says. “Have fun alng the way, but dn't put the cart befre the hrse.”

Recently, a cmpany called SkyDrive gave a test f its new flying car, the SD-03. The small car flew at an altitude f arund 6 feet arund up t fur minutes. The SD-03 is pwered by batteries and has 8 mtrs, which lift it straight ff the grund. Since flying cars dn't use runways, they need t be able t take ff and land by ging straight up r dwn. Its breakthrugh was that a pilt was n bard. Tmhir Fukuzawa, wh leads SkyDrive, said, “Of the wrld's mre than 100 flying car prjects, nly a handful has succeeded with a persn n bard.”

Flying cars culd als save time in emergencies, and help reach places that can't be reached by rad.
Hwever, cntrlling a flying car is s cmplex that mst peple wn't be able t d it. Even SkyDrive's test flight was kept stable by an autmatic cmputer system, and a backup team std ready t cntrl the car frm the grund. Besides, safety is a majr prblem. What happens when a mtr fails? That's ne reasn the SD-03 has eight mtrs—as backups. All realities have led many cmpanies t take a wait-and-see apprach t develping flying cars. But peple wh believe in flying cars pint ut that cars and airplanes faced lts f challenges at first, t and that with time, many f the big prblems were settled eventually.
Mr. Fukuzawa wants SkyDrive t be able t fly tw passengers n trips f up t 3 miles by 2023. By 2050, he hpes peple will be able t fly anywhere inside Tky in just 10 minutes. “I think flying cars will becme nrmal in the near future,” he says.
32. What made the SD-03's test flight by SkyDrive special?
A. It was its first manned flying car. B. It landed withut using a runway.
C. It flew much lnger than expected. D. It was pwered by batteries.
33. What are the famus cmpanies like Airbus ding abut the flying car?
A. Develping it independently. B. Uniting t design it tgether.
C. Prmting it all ver the wrld. D. Persuading gvernments t invest it.
34. Which aspects des paragraph 3 mainly discuss abut develping the flying car?

35. What's the authr's attitude t the flying car?
