Food 'printer' saves time食物'打印机'省时又省力Scientists at Cornell University are building a 3-D food printer as part of the bigger Fab@home project, which they hope one day will be as commonplace as the microwave oven, BBC reported. Just pop the raw food "inks" in the top, load the recipe - and the machine will do the rest. The goal is to blow the lid off cooking as we know it and change the future of food production. People lacking even basic culinary skills could download recipe files from master chefs or print out nutrition-packed dishes recommended by their doctors.(See photo)据英国广播公司报道，美国康奈尔大学的研究人员正在研制一种3D食物"打印机"，只需将食材跟打印机墨汁似的放在上面，然后输入菜谱，接下来的一切就不用你操心啦。食物"打印机"只是康奈尔大学Fab@home研发项目的一部分，研究人员希望有朝一日它能跟微波炉一样在日常生活中得到普及。该机器的出现将使烹饪不再神秘，并为食物制作带来崭新的未来。即使连基本厨艺都不过关的人也可以下载大厨的食谱，或者"打印"出医生所推荐的营养美食。有用请采纳，谢谢。

Tension in the country increased over the weekend after the Ukrainian government gave pro-Russian demonstrators an ultimatum to disarm or face a "full-scale anti-terrorist operation." A security officer and a pro-Russian demonstrator died on Sunday following a confrontation in eastern Ukraine, where demonstrators have seized police and security buildings. Moscow reacted strongly following the deaths, with the country's foreign ministry saying it is "outrageous" that the Ukrainian government is using armed forces for quelling protests. Russia has called for an end to the use of the military against the Ukrainian people and the start of a national dialogue for the sake of early and radical constitutional reform in Ukraine. 新闻报道英文范文：A clean-up project in Shibang Park st March, in hopes of raising the environmental awareness of the public. At about 5:00 pm, 35 students representatives went to the park to pick up the litter. When they were collecting the litter, many visitors came to help, showing considerable appreciation and support. Our students did a good job and learned a lot. However, the work still left something to be desired, since it started late and an hour was not long enough to attract more people. In short, the project was a success and we will organize more such activities in future. 新闻报道英文范文：Michael Bowman Another international flight to the United States has been cancelled amid continued security worries. British Airways scrubbed废止 one of three daily flights from London to the Washington area Thursday, the latest in a series of cancellations of international flights bound for the United States. British Airways spokesman John Lamphill, "The British government directed British Airways to cancel flight 223. We can only assume that is due tosecurity reasons, but we have no other explanation." Wednesday, another British Airways flight was detained several hours upon arrival at Washington's Dulles Airport while U.S. authorities questioned a number of passengers and conducted extra baggage screening. All passengers were eventually allowed to disembark. FBI spokeswoman Debbie Wierman said authorities acted on "routine interest" rather than a specific threat or allegation. "There were names listed on the manifest of the plane that matched [the names of] persons that U.S. law enforcement officials were interested in interviewing. It was routine interest on our part, and, when it was all said and done, we had no concerns or worries." But not everyone sees the stepped-up security effort as benign.;One passenger from the delayed British Airways flight vented his displeasure. "This was detention without due process, as far as I am concerned. I am an American citizen and I expect to be treated as such in my own country." Last week, Air France canceled a half-dozen flights between Paris and Los Angeles. Wednesday, an AeroMexico flight bound for the United States was also scrubbed after U.S. officials raised security concerns with their Mexican counterparts. The Associated Press quotes a spokesman for Mexico's government as complaining that U.S. officials did not share specific information about what provoked their concerns. Two weeks ago, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security raised the nation's alert status to "orange" - the second highest level on a five color-coded scale. Earlier this week Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge announced new airline security measures, including an initiative to have sky marshals aboard certain flights operated by foreign carriers. 》》》》下一页更多精彩“新闻报道英文版阅读”
