46．I've been working as a professional clown（小丑）for nearly two years．Before that，I was an actor for nine years．I was never famous，but I was quite successful!I changed jobs because I wanted to do more in life than make people laugh．What if I could help people，too？
As a clown，I try to encourage sick children in hospital to laugh and smile．When you laugh，your mind and body relax．Clearly，people who laugh more don't have as many colds or other problems!Children who laugh a lot often get better results in their studies，too．
It isn't an easy job．Not all sick children get better，and sometimes I come home and cry．But I always go back to work the next day with my red nose on．l don't earn much money as a clown，but I feel very lucky to work with such brave and wonderful patients．
2 I became a laughter yoga（瑜伽）teacher more than two years ago．Before that，I was a dentist!My job was very difficult，and I used to feel fed up．Now I still improve people's health，but everything else is completely different．Everyone has fun in a laughter yoga class，including the teacher!
No，laughter isn't"magic"．It doesn't prevent all illness，keep you young，or make you beautiful．But did you know that it's an excellent kind of exercise？You move your whole body when you laugh!
Sometimes I work with famous people．It's true that being rich can be stressful!Some famous people can be unpleasant at times，but I try to change their bad feelings．Laughter is excellent for people like musicians，artists and writers，because it helps people to be more creative．

47．Most of us probably live without vegetables，but a world without chocolate？Now that would be hard!According to chocolate makers，it could happen if we don't act soon.
There are two main causes of the chocolate shortage（短缺）- chocolate's growing popularity and less production of cocoa，the plant from which chocolate is made.With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate，not much can be done about the first cause.
Therefore，the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production.However，new plant diseases and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana，the world's largest producers，have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years.What's worse，many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries like Indonesia and Venezuela are changing to easier-to-grow crops such as corn of rubber.This way，the farmers can make more money.
To prevent more farmers from changing，researchers at the newly opened International Cocoa Control Centre，in the UK，are trying to create new cocoa plants that are stronger and faster growing.But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow.This takes a long time.
First，each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy.It is then planted in the Centre's fields，studied and tested for another two years.Only after scientists are certain that they're disease-free，will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.
To create new stronger types of cocoa，scientists at the Control Centre are combing （結合） the best parts from different cocoa plants.Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage，there is now hope!
（1）In which countries has chocolate become more popular in recent years？
（2）How long does it take scientists at the Control Centre to make sure a cocoa plant is safe to grow？
（3）If you are a cocoa farmer in Africa，will you continue to grow cocoa？Why or why not？組卷：0引用：2難度：0.2
