On a piece f land f five acres in Ranch Mirage, a desert city in Califrnia knwn fr its hliday htels and glf curses, a visin f the future f husing is abut t be created.
That is because 480 miles away, in a warehuse (仓库) in Oakland, 3D printers the size f garages are building huses fr the wrld's first fully 3D-printed living neighbrhd. It is the result f a partnership between tw Califrnia cmpanies.
Ranch Mirage is nt the first place t have 3D-printed buildings. In 2019, a Mexican charity made 3D-printed hmes fr lw-incme families, while China has fr years printed multi-flr ffice blcks and flats.
Hwever, a whle new neighbrhd f 15 ec-friendly printed hmes that are large and beautiful is grundbreaking, the prject's funders say. Cnstructin is expected t take 18 mnths, raising hpes that 3D-printing culd relieve Califrnia's husing stress. Rapid ppulatin grwth is set t create a shrtfall f 3. 5 millin hmes within fur years.

Every kid lves dandelins (蒲公英) . Blw n the sft white head and seeds fly everywhere.
Dandelin seeds can travel fr miles befre finally flating dwn and settling smewhere new, But withut the help f children, the seeds still fly away and researchers recently discvered hw the plants decide t spread.
Each seed is tied t abut 100 shrt hairs, which are cmbined t frm a parachute-like tp t help the seeds mve. When the seeds cme unattached frm the head f the flwer, the parachute (降落伞) hairs catch a ride n the wind, carrying the seeds away.
“We nticed that the dandelin parachute is clsed in fggy mrnings but then pen again when the sun is up during the day,” study authr Nami Nakayama says. “S we wanted t knw hw this clsure f the parachute affects the flight.”
This hairy parachute clses when the air is humid (湿热的) , which ften means the wind is weak. In drier, mre windy cnditins, dandelins widen their parachutes t better catch the wind s the seeds can fly freely. “The dandelin uses a grup f hairs t increase air drag (空气阻力) and aid its flight,” says Nakayama. “Unlike insects r birds, they dn't need any energy input t fly a lng distance—even hundred f kilmeters—they simply catch the wind.”
In their new research, scientists have fund the “decisins” that the plants make when t pen and clse. Researchers uncvered the parachutes pen and clse using smething like an actuatr, a device that changes energy and signals int mvement. But this actuatr desn't use any energy. The middle f the dandelin's parachute is able t sense the amunt f humidity by taking in water in the air. Using signals abut humidity infrmatin, they either pen their parachutes and fly ff r they clse them and stay where they are.
32. What des the underlined wrd “help” in Paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Planting the dandelins. B. Catching the flying seeds.
C. Picking up the fallen leaves. D. Blwing the head f the flwer.
33. What can we learn abut dandelin seeds?
A. They can be heavy. B. They can travel by wind.
C. They're parachute-shaped.D. They're prtected by hairs.
34. What happens t the dandelin parachute n a sunny windy day?
A. It gets weak. B. It dries ut. C. It pens wide. D. It grws fast.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Flying FlwersB. Strange Plants C. Jurney f Seeds D. Dandelins' Decisin

A Change f Heart
It was ne f thse days, an rdinary Octber day. I wke up feeling tired f all f the husewrk. I wasn't feeling any sense f thankfulness fr my cmfrtable hme r lvely family, I drpped my tw lder children at schl with a sense f relief and unwillingly headed t the supermarket t buy grceries with my yungest.
I was feeling bad at having t g in the first place (why d they have t eat? ) and my sn, just fur years ld at the time, respnding t my feelings, was being difficult. I raced arund with the trlley (手推车) , thughtlessly thrwing items in with n regard t cst, while trying t cntrl my naughty (调皮的) by whse behavir nw was cmpletely ut f cntrl. Yes, I was that mther, shuting, threatening, at a small child, the kind f behavir yu see in thers befre yu have children and think, I will never be ne f thse peple.
We eventually made it t the checkut, and std in the queue waiting ur turn. After a shrt time, I nticed that smene had jined the line behind us. I turned arund and saw an ld man. He was bent ver and wre a dirty vercat, tied arund the middle with rpe. His shes were wrn ut and his trusers hung arund sckless ankles n this cld, wet day. In his hands he carried a small bttle f lng-life milk.
As I had a trlley full f grceries, I asked him if he'd like t g ahead f me. It wasn't an act f kindness n my part, but rather an autmatic (无意识的) reactin, rted in me since childhd frm the time I went shpping with my mther. Perhaps I just did it ut f a sense f respnsibility r guilt. Perhaps I just wanted him gne. After all, his presence made me uncmfrtable, in the same way I feel uncmfrtable and lk away when passing a hmeless persn. He lked shcked and uncertain. “N, I culdn't pssibly. Are yu sure?” “Hw kind f yu!” he said. Hesitantly, he went ahead, paid fr his milk, and tk his change.

Then, t my amazement, he turned t my little by and gently pressed the change int his hand. My sn's eyes widened in surprise as he lked up at the ld man. I prtested that it wasn't necessary but he insisted n ding that. At that mment, smething shifted inside me. And my sn, wh had up t this minute been a trublemaker, smiled his mst beautiful smile, lked at this stranger frankly, and withut judgment r hesitatin, bear-hugged him arund his dirty legs. The man gave an embarrassed smile, and then went ff, turning again t say thank yu and wave.
Waving back t him, with my yung sn by my side, I felt a change f heart. I realized that my tiredness and annyance had caused me t lse sight f the jy and gratitude that I nce felt fr my family and my life. The small acts f kindness, n matter hw insignificant they may seem, have the pwer t transfrm nt nly the recipient, but als the giver. This humble, kind stranger had made me reslve t be mre thankful and made my little angel skip ut f the supermarket with jy. With a light heart, I held my child's hand tightly, fully immersed in this mment f pure happiness.
