3D printing: the future of food production?
3D printing is becoming more and more popular. We are now able to print things such as
clothing, prosthetic limbs, musical instruments and prototype cars. People and businesses are
able to create the things they need very quickly and easily using 3D printers.
But can you imagine printing food? Some scientists are trying to revolutionize the dining
experience by doing this. Scientists say that they are easy to use: you simply have to select a
recipe and put the raw food 'inks' into the printer. You can also modify the instructions to make
the food exactly how you want it. This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty
and nutritious meals.
Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment. There would be
less need for traditional growing, transporting and packaging processes as food production would
be a lot more efficient. For example, alternative ingredients such as proteins from algae, beetroot
leaves and insects could be converted into tasty products!
Printing food could also help people who suffer from dysphasia (a swallowing disorder). They
could program the printer to print softer versions of their favourite foods so that they would not
have trouble swallowing them.
However, some people think that a future of 3D-printed food would be a disaster. It could take
away many jobs, including those for growing, transporting and packaging food. Imagine a world
where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes and textures could be
printed from a raw 'food ink'. Likewise, traditional cafés and restaurants might lose business.
Also, there are concerns about the nutritional value of printed food: is it really possible to get the
nutrients we need from food-based inks and gels.

Charlie Chaplin
He was believed to have been born on April 16, 1889. There is some doubt
whether April 16 is actually his birthday, and it is possible he was not born in
1889. There is also uncertainty about his birthplace: London or Fontainebleau,
France. There is no doubt, however, as to his parentage: he was born to Charles
Chaplin, Sr. and Hannah Harriette Hill (aka Lily Harley on stage), both Music Hall
entertainers. His parents separated soon after his birth, leaving him in the care of
his unstable mother.
In 1896, Chaplin's mother was unable to find work; Charlie and his older
half-brother Sydney Chaplin had to be left in the workhouse at Lambeth, moving
after several weeks to Hanwell School for Orphans and Destitute Children. His
father died an alcoholic when Charlie was 12, and his mother suffered a mental
breakdown, and was eventually admitted temporarily to the Cane Hill Asylum at
Coulsdon (near Croydon). She died in 1928 in the United States, two years after
coming to the States to live with Chaplin, by then a commercial success.
Charlie first took to the stage when, aged five, he performed in Music Hall
in 1894, standing in for his mother. As a child, he had to be in bed for weeks due to
a serious illness. In 1900, his brother helped get him the role of a comic cat in the
pantomime Cinderella at the London Hippodrome. In 1903 he appeared in 'Jim, A
Romance of Cockayne', followed by his first regular job, as the newspaper boy
Billy in Sherlock Holmes, a part he played into 1906. This was followed by
Casey's 'Court Circus' variety show, and, the following year, he became a clown in
Fred Karno's 'Fun Factory' slapstick comedy company.

Chinese food-What a Way to cook!
My interest in Chinese food started many years ago, when I had my first job. I was a young reporter for
the Daily Journal in San-Francisco. Our office wasn’t far from Chinatown. I usually managed to arrange
my schedule so that I could go there at least two or three times a week for a good meal.
The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. And since then, it just tastes better and better to me. The
first thing I noticed was the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables. When I learned more about the food
I began to understand why it has this unique feature.
About 5000 years ago, Chinese lost much of its wood because of over population and poor management
of its forests. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the
food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get, so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for
their valuable wood, or learn how to use it better. There weren’t any substitutes available , so people
found ways to economize. In order to economize in cooking , they had to use very little wood. So they
started cutting their meat and vegetables into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil. That
way, the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in this manner kept its fresh
flavor- and it’s this flavor that attracts people to the art of Chinese cooking.
I often wonder if the Chinese appreciated their solution to that ancient energy crisis as much as I do
now-whenever I eat Chinese food .

St. Paul’s Cathedral
St. Paul’s Cathedral is situated in the City of London. It was designed by Sir Christopher Wren (1632s
1723) who was not only an architect but also one of the best geometers of his day, a mathematician and
astronomer.
It took Wren 35 years to build the Cathedral which is the greatest of English Churches. It is considered
to be a fine specimen of Renaissance architecture.
The Cathedral is 515 ft long and 180 ft wide. Its famous dome is the largest church dome in the world
after St. Peter’s in Rome.
The Cathedral is Gothic in plan but the details are classic Renaissance. In one of the twin baroque
towers there is one of the largest bells in the world, Great Paul, weighting 17, 5 tons.
Inside there is a wonderful mixture of architectural work, paintings, mosaics and statues which are
monuments to generals and admirals who are buried there and among them admiral Nelson and the Duke of
Wellington (under his command the army of the allies defeated Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815).
When Christopher Wren was 90 he was carried here once a year so that he could see his beautiful work.
He himself is buried in the Cathedral. There is no monument to Christopher Wren but on his tomb in the centre
of the Cathedral there is an inscription which reads: “If you seek a monument, look around”. The inscription is
in Latin.
St. Paul’s Cathedral was partly destroyed in 1941 by a direct hit from bombs. After the war it was
restored.

The City

3) monastery

The City occupies a site which was Norman London. It is a very small part of London (only
one square mile). About ten thousand people live in the City but about 500,000 of them work there.
The City can still show the remains of its defensive wall and some other signs of the Roman
time. In other parts of the City almost every stone, every wall, every house is Saxon or Norman or
connected with some famous man, book or historical event.
The City of London was described by a Roman historian as a “busy emporium for trade and
traders” and this description could have been applied to it at any time since then. The City still remains
one of the most important commercial centres in the world.
All the principal streets lead to the heart of the City, which is represented by three buildings:
the Mansion House, the Royal Exchange, the Bank of England.
The Mansion House is where the Lord Mayor lives. This is a big house built in 1739s53 which
reminds us of Greek temple. The Lord Mayor also receives the guests of London there.
The Bank of England or as the Londoners call it “The Old Lady” is 250 years old and is a huge
building seven storeys high. It is one of the most important banks in the world.
The Royal Exchange has been burnt down three times by fire and three times rebuilt. It is a
place of business and public meetings.
There are also a lot of insurance companies, offices and churches in the City.
