4．See a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao？Forget about placing an order，paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you．In the near future，you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting"print"on your computer．You might find it hard to believe that you could actually"print"an object like you would a picture．But it is not that hard to understand how it would work．Just as a traditional printer sprays （喷） ink onto paper line by line，modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer，from the bottom to the top，gradually building up a shape．Instead of ink，the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic，resin（树脂） and certain metals．The thinner each layer is-from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair-the smoother and finer the object will be．This may sound like a completely new technology，but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s．Back then，it was barely affordable for most people，so few knew about it．Last year，though，saw a big change in the 3D printing industry-printers became much cheaper．For example，10years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost￡20，000，while now they cost only about￡1，000，according to the BBC．Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses，3D printing can create just about anything you can think of-flutes （笛子），bikinis，jewelry，aircraft parts and even human organs．In fact，scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer，according to Science Daily．The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one．However，as 3D printing becomes more common，it may bring about certain problems-such as piracy．"Once you can download a coffee maker，or print out a new set of kitchen utensils （餐具） on your personal 3D printer，who will visit a retail store again？"an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News．Even more frightening，what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun？

18．The power of humor and laughter is numerous．They entertain us and make us feel good．But，above all，we have discovered that humor and laughter are the best medicine．They relieve pain，reduce stress and anxiety，and are anti-aging and longevity facilitators．
They are extremely necessary for helping us to find and maintain a balance between life and work．However，they are slipping away from us．We have become far too serious．The only ones who still enjoy humor，laughter，fun and play to the fullest are young children．Children tend to laugh an average of 200times a day．For adults，however，it is a totally different story．
In the 1950s people laughed on average 18times a day．Today，we are lucky if we average between 4-6times a day．
As a matter of fact，a recent study found that people laugh 6more times in the presence of one person but 30more times in a group of people．You can get a chuckle（咯咯笑） from jokes you get on the Internet，but it is not the same as belly jiggling laughter （a deep laugh） you get when you interact with others．
Socializing with friends and relatives was much looked forward to．However，this is no longer the case．In fact，the majority of people can hardly find time，nor do they have the inclinationtowards socializing outside home．They turn to electronic media such as television，computers，the Internet，videos，CDs，and audio equipment，which can provide them with instant self-entertainment at the push of a button．
The workplace does not fare（进展） much better．Due to the pressures to produce more in the same or fewer hours available and to compete，for example，in a manufacturing field with cheaper labor elsewhere in the world，humor and laughter in the workplace have gradually eroded（逐渐毁坏） away．
I have developed a real appreciation，perhaps closer to a strong desire for the power of humor and laughter．This encouraged me to write my first book titled"The Power of Humor"and subsequently my second book titled"Kids Say the Goggonest Things"based on the natural humor，laughter，play and fun that kids experience and they freely share with parents，grandparents and teachers．
From writing about humor and laughter，people start to ask me to speak up for them．To date，I have developed a number of humor-laughter topics that I use in my keynote presentations．You are invited to subscribe to my free monthly e-magazine"The Humormeister's Forum"by clicking on the Free Humor E-zine navigation button on the website．

19．No one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids（金字塔） near Cairo．But a new study suggests long-ago builders could have tied wooden poles to the stones and rolled them across the sand，the scientists say．
"Strictly speaking，I think what they're suggesting is possible，"physicist Daniel Bonn said．
People have long been puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away．And there's no clear answer．
The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks（石块） along smooth paths．Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds（滑板）．Then they would have dragged them along paths．To make the work easier，workers may have lubricated（润滑） the paths either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle．Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand．
Evidence（证据） from the sand supports this idea．Researchers found small amounts of fat，as well as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths．
However，physicist Joseph West think there might have been a simpler way，who led the new study．West said，"I was inspired while watching a television program：Why don't they just try rolling the things？A square （方形） could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by tying wooden poles to its sides．That should make a block of stone easier to roll than a square"．
So he tried it．
He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block．That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel．The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths．They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving it along a slippery（滑的）path．
West thinks rolling has clear advantages over sliding．At least，workers wouldn't have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths．

25．It's widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site byC．
A．rolling them on roads
B．pushing them over the sand
C．sliding them on smooth paths
D．dragging them on some poles
26．What does the underlined word"it"in Paragraph 7refer to？A
A．Rolling the blocks with poles tied．
B．Rolling the blocks on wooden wheels．
C．Rolling poles to move the blocks．
D．rolling the blocks with fat．
27．Why is rolling better than sliding according to West？D
A．Because more force is needed for sliding．
B．Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle．
C．Because sliding on smooth road is more dangerous．
D．Because less preparation on path is needed for rolling．
28．What is the text mainly about？D
A．An experiment on ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site．
B．An application of the method of moving blocks to the pyramid site．
C．An argument about how ancient Egyptians built pyramids
D．Views about the ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site．
