　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　(2016·兰州高三诊断)Three­dimensional printers are fast becoming everyday devices in the United States. Three­D printers are used to make everything from automobile parts to bone replacements for human patients. American research scientists are now working on creating replacements for living tissue.

　　Researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina have been working on creating and manufacturing living tissue since 2003. This process is called biofabrication (生物制造). It requires special printing equipment and a special kind of ink.

　　Traditional printers require ink to produce an image or design on a piece of paper. For their three­D printer, the South Carolina researchers prepare complex nutritious solutions they call bio­inks. Bio­inks are made of proteins and glucose (葡萄糖), which normally provides energy for most cells of the body. The researchers also add living cells taken from the animal that will receive the new, printed tissue. The bio­inks are then added to a device that researchers call the Palmetto bio­printer.

　　Sarah Grace Dennis is one of the researchers at the Medical University of South Carolina. She says new technology, like the Palmetto bio­printer, is a great help to the biofabrication process.

　　The bio­inks are placed in three dispensers (分配器), containers, inside the printer. Lasers control both the position of the printing surface and the places where the bio­ink is released.

　　Michael Yost is a leader of the research team. He says the printing process is fully automated — machine­operated. He says that the Palmetto bio­printer makes it possible to create complex tissue types.

　　The researchers say bio­printing is still experimental. But they hope in a few years they may be able to print tissue to replace damaged human organs.

　　But there are still some problems which need to be solved. Some scientists worry about how to get blood to the replacement tissue. The flow of blood is important to keep the printed tissue alive.

　　Michael Yost hopes that more people will believe in the benefits of biofabrication.

　　“Tissue biofabrication is a reality, and it is a reality now, and if you come here and you get to see it. You will get to see it. You can't touch it, but you will see it and think this is real. And this is really human.”

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。从汽车配件到人体骨骼，3D打印技术在美国已经得到了广泛的应用。现在科学家们正致力于3D打印人体组织的生物制造研究。
