六、阅读下面短文，完成相关任务。
Great inventions are changing and improving our lives in many ways. A 3D printer, one of the great inventions, is like a magical machine. It can make objects into real things from computer designs. What is more amazing, two young scientists made a special 3D food printer in Qatar. It can use bits of vegetables to create food!
These smart students, Annan and Mansoori, are students at Carnegie Mellon University in Doha. To make the 3D carrot, they first used very small parts of a real carrot and made lots of them in a science lab. Then they used these tiny parts like ink (墨水) in their printer to make the carrot. By using vegetable cells (细胞) and ultraviolet (紫外线) (UV) , a new carrot is printed. UV light is a kind of energy that helps stick the carrot bits together. The invention may help with food safety.
They chose carrots in the test because scientists knew a lot about how carrot parts grew into plants. Mansoori said 3D-printed food can be made cheaply. It doesn’t require large areas of land. It also does not require maintenance (维护) costs. 3D-printed carrots are cheaper than real carrots.
Today, 733 million people are facing hunger. Mansoori hopes 3D printers will be used in restaurants, supermarkets, and hospitals. The purpose, she said, is to make food reachable to people all over the world.
1．What can the special 3D food printer do (不超过10个词)
2．Where do Annan and Mansoori study (不超过10个词)
3．How is a new carrot printed (不超过10个词)
4．Why did they choose carrots in the test (不超过15个词)
5．What is the purpose of the invention of 3D food printers (不超过10个词)

What is more amazing, two young scientists made a special 3D food printer in Qatar. It can use bits of vegetables to create food!
These smart students, Annan and Mansoori, are students at Carnegie Mellon University in Doha. To make the 3D carrot, they first used very small parts of a real carrot and made lots of them in a science lab. Then they used these tiny parts like ink (墨水) in their printer to make the carrot. By using vegetable cells (细胞) and ultraviolet (紫外线) (UV) , a new carrot is printed. UV light is a kind of energy that helps stick the carrot bits together. The invention may help with food safety.
They chose carrots in the test because scientists knew a lot about how carrot parts grew into plants. Mansoori said 3D-printed food can be made cheaply. It doesn’t require large areas of land. It also does not require maintenance (维护) costs. 3D-printed carrots are cheaper than real carrots.
Today, 733 million people are facing hunger. Mansoori hopes 3D printers will be used in restaurants, supermarkets, and hospitals. The purpose, she said, is to make food reachable to people all over the world.
