9、 a lab, which stuck to a traditional format. The lab head would spend much time asking the presenter a series of pointed questions. Presenters would need to know extremely small details about articles they were citing and present their research using picture-perfect analyses and graphs. So the prese
10、ntation was an untoward thing to almost anyone. When I started my own lab, I decided to change the routine by being friendly and welcoming while asking my trainees challenging questions about their science. But for 6 years, I felt I hadnt created the lab environment I wanted.The turning point came d

I decided that I wanted to become a better professorto make a mark by training the next generation of scientists.In my personal life, I had benefited from listening to talks by moti

At the next lab meeting, I showed my students a video about happiness, hoping it would help them in their personal life and give us something light to discuss. I wasnt sure how theyd respond, hut I was pleased to discover that they were interested in d
13、iscussing the advice in the video afterward. In the end, I asked them whether theyd like to do similar activities in future meetings, and they said yes. From then on, I began every lab meeting with a 20-minute team building session. My lab members and I do many activitiesincluding analyzing and appr

18、w scientists report bumblebees(大黄蜂)seem to know the same thing, making bumblebees the first insects known to play. Lots of animals play. But the behavior is best known in mammals(哺乳动物)and birds. For many animals, playing is often seen as a kind of training for things theyll have to deal with in late
19、r life.But before this, there were no reports of insects playing. Dr. Lars Chittka did an earlier experiment, where he trained bumblebees to roll balls into a goal for food. He noticed some bees were rolling balls even when they werent rewarded. He wondered if they were playing. To test the idea,he
20、with other scientists set up a new experiment. First, they marked 45 young bumblebees, both male and female, between one and 23 days old. Then they set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees nest to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, small colored wooden balls were placed. On one si
21、de of the path,the balls couldnt move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. For three hours a day over 14 days, the scientists opened the pathway. The bumblebees never had to leave the pathway to find food, but they left anyway. They werent so interested in the side where the balls couldn
22、t move, but they made lots of visits to the side with the rolling balls. Grabbing the balls with their legs, the bumblebees would beat their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 marked bumblebees did this 910 times during the experiment. Though some only did it once, others did i
23、t a lot. The scientists found the younger bumblebees spent more time rolling balls, and that males seemed more likely to play than females. The scientists say its not clear why the bumblebees roll the balls or whether they enjoy it. But the experiment raises important questions about how the insects

27、es Are First Insect Known to PlayNo one in the US has 3D-printed a two-story house before. But now three companies are working together to print the first large, two-story house in the US. The house, which is in Houston, Texas, was designed by a company. Another company provided the 3D printer. And
28、a construction company is doing the actual building. Leslie Lok. who designed the house, says there are special challenges involved in printing the two-story house. One of the biggest is the size of the machine needed for the building. The 3D printer in Houston is massive. It weighs over 12 tons. Ms
29、. Lok says printing the house will take the massive machine about 330 hours. Thats about eight normal work weeks. But the team isnt in a rush. Though its a two-year project, the actual printing didnt start until last July. The house is now about halfway finished. “We are not trying to beat the clock
30、,” says Hikmat Zerbe, who works for the construction company. Instead, theyre using the house as a “big laboratory” to learn more about 3D-printing houses. They want to see how the concrete reacts “under different weather conditions”. They also want to figure out how to make 3D-printing faster and c
31、heaper. Mr. Zerbe says that currently, 3D-printing a house with concrete costs more than building a house with wood. Thats partly because the technology is new. With time, Mr. Zerbe expects the costs of 3D-printed houses to go down. He thinks printers will improve and make it easier to create more h
32、ouses quickly. 3D-printed concrete houses are stronger and hold up better in serious storms than house built with wood. This can save money in the long run. Since the machine is doing the building, fewer workers are needed, which also saves money. Besides, with 3D-printing, its easy to make each hou

Hikmat Zerbe says that means in the future, each house could be created specially for its owner.12What is a big problem in printing the two-story house?AThe limited time.BThe lack of skilled workers.CThe need for
34、huge 3D printers.DThe shortage of building materials.13What is to be studied in the building process?AHow the printed houses stand wear and tear.BHow 3D-printed houses are made stronger.CHow workers can print large houses quicker.DHow concrete changes with the shift of weather.14What is a disadvanta
