1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

       Yang Peijie, 71, has been performing Haian flower-drum dances（海安花鼓）for more than fifty years.

       The Haian flower-drum dance dates back to more than 400 years. It became popular in the areas of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River in the Ming Dynasty（1368-1644）. 1. 在过去，它被用来展现当地人们的生活。“It’s more gentle compared to flower-drum dances in other places such as in Anhui and Hunan, ” Yang said. Many of its dance steps came from daily life and express positive feelings. For example, fengbailiu （风摆柳） means you have to twist （弯曲） your body like the wind blowing willow trees.

       Yang started to learn the dance from old artists in the 1960s. At that time, people could only learn it this way. There were no textbooks. 2. Worrying it might get lost, Yang spent five years studying the history of the dance and recorded its steps in detail. He visited almost all the local artists and wrote a book about it.

       3. In recent years, Yang has kept on spreading the dance among all age groups. He set up a team to work on this. The team members have visited about eight schools to teach students. It has been combined （结合）with break-time exercises in many schools. 4. To interest kids, they separate difficult dance steps into several simple ones. Xu Hongxuan, a pupil from Haian Elementary School said, “I have been practicing it for three years. I think it’s more interesting than the radio gymnastic exercises（广播体操）. We beat drums to the music in all kinds of ways. Some dance steps are difficult, 5. 但当我掌握了它们之后，我感到开心和自豪。 Now I am a member of the flowerdrum dance club. ”

       Besides schools, Yang and the team members also go to communities and parks to teach older people. “I don’t want to see the art fail to be passed down from me, ” Yang said.

26、You’ve heard of 3D printing from newspaper and TV programs. It can “print” in plastic, metal, nylon, and over a hundred other materials. 3D printing technology has been around since the 1980s, it was not widely used until the early 2010s. The first working 3D printer was created in 1984 by Chuck Hull.

3D printers use many different types of technologies, but they all share one thing in common: they create a three-dimensional(维度的) object by building it layer(层), by continuing layer, until the whole object is completed. Imagine a baker lay down each layer one at a time until the whole cake is formed. 3D printing is somewhat similar, but just a bit stricter. How can 3D printers work so well? The most important thing-a program, a 3D printer also needs to have instructions for what to print from a computer. It needs a file as well. The file which is a Computer Aided Design (CAD) paper is created with the use of a 3D modeling program. The program creates a paper that is sent to the 3D printer. Along the way, software pieces the design into hundreds, or more likely thousands of layers. The 3D printer builds up one layer at a time, from the bottom to the top, until the object is done.

3D printings can be used for making many kinds of things such as machine parts, daily life objects, even human organs(器官) using a person's own cells.

Nowadays, Marc. Dillon founds a project which deals with many world famous paintings like Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Van Gogh’s Sunflower with 3D technology. This project helps the blind people enjoy the fantastic art through touching. In order to provide a good user experience, these 3D paintings have special instruments which can tell people what they touch.
