49. The Halloween House is big and old. I'm told that on Halloween night things happen there.
Tonight is Suzie's first Halloween at the Halloween House: She finished her trick or treat, earlier in the evening. She dressed up as a pumpkin with an orange glow - and now her two bags of candy are spilling onto the floor.
50.The shooflies were made from a small amount of horsehair folded in half and wrapped in buckskin. The shoofly would then be clipped onto the favorite spot selected by each rider.
When the horses had their tails cleaned, the hair was saved for Sti'Tumma, who then went to work to make herself some beautiful and colorful shooflies.

阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
FILTON, just outside Bristol, is where Britain’s fleet of Concorde supersonic(超音速的)airliners was built. There, something remarkable is being created. Little by little a machine is “printing” a complex titanium bracket (钛合金支架), about the size of a shoe, which normally would have to be cut from a solid block of metal. Brackets are only the beginning. The researchers at Filton have a much bigger ambition: to print the entire wing of an airliner.
Unrealistic as this may seem, many other people are using 3D printing technology to create similarly remarkable things. These include medical implants, jewellery, football boots designed for individual feet, lampshades, racing-car parts, solid-state batteries and customized mobile phones. Some are even making mechanical devices (仪器). At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Peter Schmitt, a PhD student, has been printing something that is like the workings of a grandfather clock. It took him a few attempts to get right, but eventually he removed the plastic clock from a 3D printer, hung it on the wall and pulled down the counterweight. It started ticking.
