Today more and more people want to live in big cities, but what can be done to help them live in crowded cities like Tokyo? Many architects( 建 筑 师 ) are looking for ways to solve this problem. 25-year-old Haseef Rafiei has caught the world’s attention because of his special skyscraper concept(摩天大楼概 念)—“Pod Vending Machine” skyscraper.

Haseef comes from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He is now a student of Manchester School of Architecture. He got his idea form a trip to Japan. He noticed vending machines are popular in Japan. He said, “Vending machines make buying easy and interesting.” After seeing vending machines have made such a difference to people’s lives, Haseef thought, “Why not build skyscrapers that act the same way?”

Haseef’s “Pod Vending Machine” skyscraper can act as a home vending machine. If people want to buy houses in the skyscraper, they can choose the types of pods(吊舱) they’d like to live in and what the inside of the pods looks like. Then the large 3D printer at the top of skyscraper can get the pods printed and then cranes ( 起 重 机 ) can get the pods placed. A smart system inside the skyscraper decides the best place for every pod. If a person doesn’t want to live in his pod any more, the pod will be returned to the 3D printer to get recycled. How amazing it is!

When young people begin to live independently, home-hunting can be difficult. But they would do well to remember that a new choice is available — micro-homes.

Fondly called “tiny houses,” these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses can hold just one or two people though some say they have the space for more. What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite modern in design.

Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also have practical features(特点). Making the best of urban space, the 72-to-122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, filled in an alley(小巷). The house uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to make its owner live practically anywhere.

Although micro-homes are attractive, there are a few disadvantages to consider before getting comfortable on a minicouch. Moving into a tiny house, you should throw away unnecessary things. It is also mostly impossible to invite guests. And finally, a micro-home is likely a temporary(暂时的) living choice for most people since they will probably start families and own more things.

Though the limitation will scare some, there is usually a benefit. A small size results in low prices and small bills, making tiny houses easier to afford. And though you won’t have many things around the house, it makes it easy and　 simple to keep it clean. Micro-homes are also eco-friendly, which can’t be matched by other homes. They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.

1.What can be learnt about micro-homes from Paragraph 2?

A.People can’t take a package into the tiny houses.

B.All of the houses can hold more than two people.

C.These houses are convenient though tiny in size.

D.Such houses are poorly designed because of the small size.

2.The author develops Paragraph 3 mainly________.

A.by examples B.by comparisons C.by order in space D.by causes and effects

3.Micro-homes are especially suitable for ________.

A.a young person who has many things B.a person who doesn’t have much money

C.a couple who want to protect environment D.a family hoping to settle down in a city

4.What can be the best title for the text?

A.East or west, home is the best. B.Micro-homes — more than tiny!

C.Home-hunting — no easy matter! D.Tiny or large, this is a choice.

Now， it may be difficult to predict(预言) the future， but many people believe that we will live on Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet， Earth， is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Well， what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars?

First of all， transport should be much better. At present， humans need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship. However， by 2100， spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get there!

Living abroad to study can certainly be an interesting experience but is that alone a good enough reason for spending years far away from home? To make the experience truly valuable, there has to be a purpose behind the decision to study abroad. This may be a wish to perfect language skills in a foreign language environment, or a clever move in your career development. You must also consider the costs, not just of living and studying abroad, but of applying (申请). Most universities now require international students to pay for application.

If you are sure that you want to apply to study abroad after considering these points, your next step is to choose the right programme of studies. Research your choices and choose carefully. You must do your homework well. Most universities have information online but you can also email and ask them to send you more details. You can find a lot of information on school ranking from education websites. But read carefully. Different universities emphasize different strengths (强调不同的强项). Don’t just think about the university’s reputation (名声); look for the most suitable for your purposes.

Next, you must deal with a large pile of paperwork. This includes filling in application form, preparing your school records, and getting recommendation letters. Reading the instructions and requirements of the universities carefully is of great importance. Sadly, many fine applicants (申请者) get kicked out in the first round, simply because they don’t follow the application procedure (程序) properly.

Money is another important consideration. Some scholarships are provided by governments, others by schools and colleges. This information, again, can be found on the Internet. If you find a scholarship that is suitable for you, follow the application procedure carefully; the earlier you apply, the better your chance of getting it.

1.According to the article, studying abroad is truly valuable because ______.

A. it is an interesting experience　　 B. all your friends are doing so

C. it is a good chance to develop your career　　 D. it is fun to travel around the world

2.A school ranking list tells you ______.

A. how much the courses cost　　 B. the names of all the professors

C. how good the school is compared to others　　 D. where the school is located

3.What are the three things to do when you are applying to study in a university abroad?

A. Study hard, read the instructions and requirements, and buy an airplane ticket.

B. Prepare recommendation letters, prepare school records, and fill in the application form.

C. Prepare school records, do paperwork, and work hard.

D. Write a recommendation letter, do paperwork, and study hard.
