When you have an idea, you draw it on paper, bring it to a store and see it turned into an object(物品) , what do you think? This is now possible with the help of 3D printers. Such ma-chines were once used just by universities(大学) and big companies, but now, stores with 3D printing services(服务)are appearing around the United States.
Bryan Jaycox and his wife opened The Build Shop LLC in Los Angeles two years ago. The Jaycoxs offer 3D printing classes and services for anyone who is interested.
"I think 3D printing is going to be huge. It's going to have a huge influence(影响) on society as a whole. " Says KiChong , one of the students in a recent class. He plans to open a 3D printing business in Cambodia(柬埔寨):
3D printing services are coming into American people's life. The UPS Store is a nationwide retailer(零售商)that provides copying and other services. The UPS Store recently put 3D printers in three of its independently-owned stores. Burke Jones owns one of the stores in San Diego.
"The need has been amazing. There has been a lot of interest from people. It's been much more than I would have thought of."
The UPS Store plans to add 3D printers in three more stores.
For $ 11, someone used a 3D printer to produce two small plastic(塑料) parts as part of a knuckle(指节)for a hand. He works for the company which is testing prosthesis(假肢). He says the same-day or next-day printing services will speed up testing of parts and get them to patients faster.
Staples, an American store, are selling 3D printers on its website for as low as about $ 1.300. As with any technology-experts expect the printing speed to increase and the price to go down.
Bryan Jaycox asks for $ 15 an hour to print an object. He also sets the price depending on the size of the object and up to $50 an hour for design and labor services.
Mr. Jaycox thinks that within five years, 3D printing technology(技术) could become more userfriendly. But KiChong Tran says even today's technology can make a difference in a developing country like Cambodia.
With 3D printing you can give them tools(工具) , so they are responsible(负责) more for their own development and they learn skills(技能)beyond just like learning English and becoming a tour guide or something like that. You can actually create things that give value to the world. "
He says it's not just Cambodia but anywhere where there is a 3D printer, it can turn a good idea into reality.

Your parents always tell you that a good education is the key to a successful future. For those of you who have or will be graduating from high school, the promise (允诺)you made to finish your schooling has been completed. Another few years in some college classroom just doesn't sound too attractive(有吸引力的) , so what are your choices? Let's see, Choice l- You can live with your parents, leech on to them, and do nothing. Or Choice 2-You could get yourself a job. Of course, there are other choices, but for this little discussion, we'll just suppose that they are not related(相关的).
Okay, so Choice 2 is obviously going to be more useful. You will finally be entering the real world. What would be a good place to start? Well, hopefully high school helped to give you some kind of an idea of what type of job you would like to enter. If not, then it would be a good idea to speak with an advisor or a person working in the field you may be interested in before you jump into a job that you won't like. Getting knowledge on a particular line of work beforehand can be good by helping you in your search to find the job that you will enjoy doing. Another reason to research jobs and get some hands on work is related to the fact that it will also be helpful in providing you with some valued experience. Internships(见习) or volunteering are usually a good place to start.
If you are ready to begin a job after high school, you will clearly be saving money from high college cost and happily making a living in your chosen jobs, From another point of view, jumping into the workforce is sometimes the only way to see for yourself if you are ready to work a 40-hour week yet. If you decide that full time work is not what you are ready for, then this may suggest that you should go back to school and get a degree. Besides, a college degree will usually mean higher pay.
【小题1】The underlined phrase "leech on to" in the first paragraph might mean_______.
| A．deal with | B．care for |
| C．quarrel with | D．depend on |
| A．Ideas about getting a job in high schools. |
| B．Advice from teachers and parents. |
| C．Internships and volunteering. |
| D．Experience from work. |
A. getting to know if you should go back to school.
B. making sure if you are really ready to work
C, getting higher pay
D. saving money
【小题4】The best title for this passage might be| A．Going Back to College |
| B．The Place Where I Should Start |
| C．Jumping into Work after High School |
| D．The Advantage of Starting Work Earlier |
Jenny knew she had a problem when she looked in her money box. It was only three days until the school trip to the beach, and Jenny didn't have any money. To make things worse, her next pocket money was still six days away.
"What's the matter, Jenny?" asked her sister, Mary.
"Mary," said Jenny, "I'm in double trouble. I can't go to the beach with my classmates, and I've broken my promise to Mom. I promised I'd stay within my budget (预算) this month."
For a few minutes, the two girls just sat and thought. Then Mary grabbed Jenny's arm.
"Jenny, I won't give you the money, but I will help you. Just listen for a minute."
At first, Jenny wasn't interested since Mary wasn't willing to give her the money she needed. However, after Mary explained her plan, Jenny began to like it.
Mary would lend Jenny the money for the beach trip, but Jenny would have to create a real budget for herself and follow it. In addition, if Jenny successfully followed the budget, Mary wouldn't tell their mother about Jenny's recent money disaster.
"Mary, you are a lifesaver," Jenny hugged Mary's neck.
The two sisters began to work together. After several hours, they agreed on how Jenny should use her money. Mary took their figures and made a graph(表格) for Jenny.
Holding up the graph, Mary said, " Now you can see where your money should go each month."
"Thanks, Mary, " Jenny said. "But I know one thing that my money can't buy. It couldn't buy another great sister like you, " said Jenny. Then she hung her new budget on her bedroom wall.
