38、t a museum.CTheres a new frontier in 3D printing thats beginning to come into focus: food. Recent development has made possible machines that print, cook, and serve foods on a mass scale. And the industry isnt stopping there.Food productionWith a 3D printer, a cook can print complicated chocolate sc
39、ulptures and beautiful pieces for decoration on a wedding cake. Not everybody can do that-it takes years of experience, but a printer makes it easy. A restaurant in Spain uses a Foodini to“ re-create forms and pieces“ of food that are“ exactly the same,” freeing cooks to complete other tasks. In ano
40、ther restaurant, all of the dishes and desserts it serves are 3D-printed, rather than farm to table.Sustainability(可持续性)The global population is expected to grow to 9.6 billion by 2050, and some analysts estimate that food production will need to be raised by 50 percent to maintain current levels. S
41、ustainability is becoming a necessity. 3D food printing could probably contribute to the solution. Some experts believe printers could use hydrocolloids(水解胶体)fom plentiful renewables like algae(藻类) and grass to replace the familiar ingredients(烹饪原料). 3D printing can reduce fuel use and emissions. Gr
42、ocery stores of the future might stock “food“ that lasts years on end, freeing up shelf space and reducing transportation and storage requirementsNutritionFuture 3D food printers could make processed food healthier. Hod Lipson, a professor at Columbia University, said, “Food printing could allow con

So instead of eating a piece of yesterday s bread from the supermarket, you d eat something baked just for you on demand.“ChallengesDespite recent advancements in 3D food printing，the industry has many challenges to overcome. Cu
44、rrently, most ingredients must be changed to a paste(糊状物)before a printer can use them, and the printing process is quite time-consuming, because ingredients interact with each other in very complex ways. On top of that, most of the 3D food printers now are restricted to dry ingredients，because meat
45、 and milk products may easily go bad. Some experts are skeptical about food printers, believing they are better suited for fast food restaurants than homes and high-end restaurants.46.What benefit does 3D printing bring to food production?A. It helps cooks to create new dishes.B. It saves time and e
46、ffort in cooking.C. It improves the cooking conditions.D. It contributes to restaurant decorations.47.What can we learn about 3D food printing from Paragraph 3?A.

49、The Challenges for 3D Food ProductionD. 3D Food Printing: From Farm to TableDGive yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you ll have no trouble answering these questions。Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A childs day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear, we are numb (麻木的 ) to new stimulat
