While you relaxed on the sofa with a movie, the raindrops falling on your windows might one day provide the power for your TV. This is the idea behind an invention that harvests energy from water.The technology

12、 is based on the triboelectric (摩擦电的)effect. An engineer at the University of Hawaii, David Ma knew that its possible to generate electricity by rubbing two things together. So, he thought, “Why dont we use water?”A drop of water sliding across a surface coated with two different materials would gen

13、erate enough friction to create an electrical charge. By placing metal wires that the drop of water touched as it moved, it should be possible to harvest electricity, he reasoned.It worked. In fact, the researchers lit up 15 LED bulbs with a single moving water drop.This is not the first time that s

14、cientists have got electricity from water-generated friction( 摩 擦 ). Earlier experiments, though, harvested the charge produced in a surface by a sliding drop of water. There, the surface had acted as an electrode(电极). This is different. The energy of friction is being harvested from the water itsel

15、f.“It turns out,” Ma says, “the charge in the water drop is way more than the charge produced in the other electrode.” In fact, his teams model generated almost 100 times more power than previous experiments from a single drop of water.“The technology could someday power phones, sensors or other sma

16、ll electronics,” says Christopher Oshman, an engineer at the Colorado School of Mines. “This work is a step toward harvesting the energy of moving objects all around us, including ourselves, to power the electronic appliances we use every day,” he says.Ma has shown that the technology can work in a

17、lab, Oshman says. Next, the Colorado researcher would like to see it tried on a larger scale, such as on an umbrella.1、How did the author introduce the topic of the text?ABy telling a story.BBy raising a question.CBy giving an example.DBy imagining a situation.2、What does the underlined word “it” in

18、 Paragraph 3 refer to?AThe wire.BThe drop of water.CThe surface.DThe electricity.3、What is unique about Mas technique compared with earlier experiments?AThe water itself acts as an electrode.BIt is based on the triboelectric effect.CIt produces electricity from water-made friction.DIt uses a surface

19、 coated with two different materials.4、What does Oshman say about Mas technology?AIt has a promising future.BIt will do well on an umbrella.CIt works well in the real world.DIt will replace batteries someday.22（8分）It is that time of year when people need to lock their cars. Its not because there are

20、 a lot of criminals running around stealing cars. Rather, its because of the good-hearted neighbors who want to share their harvest. Especially with this years large crop, leaving a car unlocked in my neighborhood is an invitation for someone to stuff it full of zucchini（西葫芦）.My sister-in-law, Sharo

21、n, recently had a good year for tomatoes. She and her family had eaten and canned so many that they began to feel their skin turn slightly red. Thats when she decided it was time to share her blessings. She started calling everyone she knew. When that failed, she began to ask everyone in the neighbo

22、rhood like a politician, eventually finding a neighbor delighted to have the tomatoes. “Feel free to take whatever you want,” Sharon told her. She felt happy that she could help someone and that the food didnt go to waste.A few days later, Sharon answered the door. There was the neighbor, holding so

23、me bread. The neighbor smiled pleasantly, “I want to thank you for all of the tomatoes, and I have to admit that I took a few other things and hope you wouldnt mind.”Sharon couldnt think of anything else in her garden that had been worth harvesting and said no. “Oh, but you did,” the neighbor said.

24、“You had some of the prettiest zucchini Ive ever seen.”Sharon was confused. Zucchini in her garden? They hadnt even plated any zucchini. But her neighbor insisted that there really were bright-green zucchini in her garden. The two of them walked together into the backyard. When the neighbor pointed

25、at the long green vegetables, Sharon smiled, “Well, actually, those are cucumbers that we never harvested, because they got too big, soft and bitter for eating or canning.”The neighbor looked at Sharon, shock written all over her face. Then she smiled, and held out the bread that she had shared all

26、over the neighborhood, “I brought you a loaf of cucumber bread. I hope you like it.”1、Why does the author suggest that people in the neighborhood should lock their cars?AThey might be stolen by thieves.BThey night be moved away by the police.CTheir neighbors might fill them with their harvest.DTheir

27、 neighbors might throw rubbish in them.2、What does the underlined word “blessings” in the second paragraph mean?Atomatoes. Bbelongings.Chelpful things. Dbest wishes.3、What did the neighbor do in Sharons garden?AShe harvest tomatoes only.BShe harvested zucchini by accident.CShe took some cucumbers mi

28、stakenly.DShe stole something without Sharons permission.4、We can infer from the article that the neighbors bread would taste _.Abitter but tasty Bstrange and bitterChard and sour Dsoft and sweet.23（8分） Dolphins, African gray parrots and some other animals understand the idea of “zero,” but research

29、ers were surprised to find that honeybees also comprehend this abstract concept, considering the insects tiny brains, according to a new study. Honeybees have fewer than one million neurons (神经元), compared with the 86 billion neurons in humansand yet, they grasp a concept that humans, by some measur

30、es, dont start to understand before preschool.The researchers set up two cards, each of which had a set of symbols on them, like triangles or circles. Then, they trained a group of the bees to fly to the card with the lower number of symbols. The bees quickly learned what the humans wanted them to d

31、o to get their delicious, sweet rewards. The trained bees were then shown a card that was empty and one that had symbols on it. There is no need for the bees to be trained to fly more often to the empty cardthus showing that they understood that “zero” was a number less than the others.Although they

32、 flew more often to an empty card than to one that had one symbol on it, it became easier for them to distinguish when the symbols on the card increased in number. For example, they more often flew to the zero when the other card had four symbols than when it had one.Perhaps these findings will expl

33、ain the brain mechanism (机制) behind what allows us to understand the concept of “nothing,” Adrian Dyer, a researcher said. This understanding, in turn, could help in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) that also understands this concept. “If bees can understand zero with a brain of less

34、than a million neurons, it suggests there are simple, efficient ways to teach AI new tricks,” Dyer said in the statement.1、What is a surprising finding for the researchers?AMany animals also comprehend the meaning of “zero”.BThe number of neurons of honeybees is much smaller.CHoneybees can understan

35、d “zero” with their tiny brains.DHumans fail to recognize abstract ideas before preschool.2、What can the bees do without further training?AFly directly to the card with more symbols on it.BFly less often to the card with fewer symbols on it.CFly quite slowly to the card without anything on it.DFly m

36、ore often to the card without any symbol on it.3、What does Adrian Dyer say about these findings?AThey offer inspiration to the development of technology.BThey enable people to understand more abstract concepts.CThey suggest ways to teach humans some complex tricks.DThey allow people to set a new typ
