I talked to American architect Suzanne Johnson Crocker to find out more about ihe advantages and disadvantages of choosing architecture as a career.QI: Why did you choose architecture as a career?A: When I was young, I knew I wanted a job that was challenging and would allow me to keep learning. I considered chemical research, but I found myself bored by its limited range. I met a friend in college who studied architecture, and I was excited to learn how architecture combines art, math, and science. Whether working on historic structures or new projects, to me architecture is limitless, difficult, and rewarding.Q2: What are the best subjects to study at school if you want to be an architect?A: The education of an architect centers on the studio, where communicating ideas is key. Communication includes drawing; writing, speaking, discussing, and model making. To support their work in the studio, students must study a variety of different subjects, including both general classes and architectural classes. I was very lucky to have spent four years in liberal arts (文科)and science beforestudying architecture. This means that I am able to draw on a wide range of learning experiences.Q3: Do you have any advice for someone that wants to be an architect?A: Keep your eyes on the goal. When I was at university, we joked that studying architecture was harder than military training! We had long hours, tough assignments, and difficult exams. You will go through a lot of difficult times when you arc studying to be an architect, but remember to enjoy life and take time out for hobbies and sports.51. Why did Suzanne choose to be an architect? A. She favored designing.B. She found it challenging.C. She was inspired by her best friend.D. She expected to find a well-paid job.52. What gave Suzanne an advantage during her career? A. Her business degree.B. Her rich learning experiences.C. Her excellent performance at school. D. Her wonderful public speaking ability.53. What do we know about Suzanne?A. She wanted to be an architect from an early age. B. She is good at communicating with others.C. As for her, architecture is easy and rewarding.D. She learned liberal arts and science besides architecture.54. What advice does Suzanne give? A. Do regular exercise.B. Study at a top school.C. Be well-prepared for various exams. D. Be determined to face difficulties.55. What would be the best title for the text? A. Architecture as a career path B. A famous American architect C. How to be an architect D. What architecture isBPlane wings are traditionally strong and thick but a team of researchers led by NASA has created a flexible wing that morphs （变形）as it flies. The new wing is constructed from thousands of units that fit together and function in a similar way to a bird's wing, says NASA research engineer, Nick Cramer.“Something like an eagle will lock its joints in while it's cruising, and then it adjusts its wings to a more suitable shape for its cruising, and then when it wants to do a more aggressive move it'll unlock its shoulder. That's a similar response to what we're doing here, he said.The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is constructed from body parts that are so large, so they require outsize molds （模具）to create them. The same applies to the Airbus A380. “The cost of infrastructure（基础设施）that the business needs to invest to build these planes is pretty extraordinary,“ said Kenneth Cheung, a NASA research scientist. <4So what we're doing with these projects is trying toreduce all of that, so that you could have the same sort of performance in terms ofthe materials but be able to manufacture it without setting up all of the infrastructure that's currently required.”The new wings are created by putting fiber reinforced polyetherimide into a3D mold to create each part, which locks together in a process that could eventually be caricd out by assembly robots. The new structure can also be easily packed down to allow transport, which also makes it potentially the ideal package for another purpose - to send into space.While the idea of cheaper, more flexible planes could be appealing to the commercial aviation industry, there are major obstacles to overcome. That demands time, research and money. “If you want to revolutionize the traditional manufacturing process
