D.Thereisnosuchthingas“WesternCivilization”.【答案】28.B29.A30.C31.D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇议论文。作者用层层推进的演绎推理论证了根本没有所谓的西方文明。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“Oddsarestrongthatyoufirstbecameawareoftheterm“WesternCivilization”throughanintroductorysurveycourseincollegeorAPhistoryinhighschool.Andyou’velivedyourlifesincethenbelievingthat“theWest”boasts“amonoriginresultinginasharedhistory,asharedheritage,andasharedidentity”groundedintheclassicaleraofGreeceandRome.(很有可能你第一次接触到“西方文明”这个术语是通过大学的入门概论课程或高中的大学先修课程历史。从那以后，你一直生活在这样的观念中，即“西方”拥有“共同的起源，从而产生了共同的历史、共同的遗产和共同的身份”，而这一切都扎根于希腊和罗马的古典时代。)”可知，很多人在学校被教导并相信西方文明，故选B项。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段中“If‘theWest’canevenbecalledaCivilization,thenitistheleastoriginal‘Civilization’inhistory.(如果“西方”甚至可以被称为一种文明，那么它是历史上最缺乏原创性的“文明”。)”可知，作者对西方文明的原创性持否定态度，故选A项。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“However,cultureandvaluesareoptionstobemadeactively,not‘trackslaiddownbyaWesterndestiny.Ratherthanbeingirritatingandinwardlooking,mostsocietieshaveprovedreceptivetoideas,fashionsandtechnologiesfromtheirneighbors.’.(然而，文化和价值观是需要积极做出的选择，而不是“由西方命运铺设的轨道”。事实证明，大多数社会并不是令人恼火和内向的，而是乐于接受来自邻国的思想、时尚和技术。)”可知，是积极的选择促成了西方文化和价值观，故选C项。【31题详解】主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Well,thefactisthatthereisnosuchthingastheWest.(嗯，事实是没有所谓的“西方”。)”可知，主要围绕西方文明是否存在展开讨论，D项“Thereisnosuchthingas“WesternCivilization”.(没有“西方文明”这样的东西。)”最能概括全文，故选D项。DBatteriesaregettingsmaller,lighterandmorepowerful.Somepersonalelectronics,forexample,suchasfitnesstrackersthatmonitorhealthconditionsorbrainputerimplantsthatdecodeneuralsignalstocontrolelectronicprosthetic(义肢的)devices,requiremoreclosecontact.Beingunabletoflexasskinandtissuedoesmakesbatteriesbothunreliableandunfortabletowear.Anumberofapproachesarethereforebeingtakentoproduceflexiblebatteries,amongwhichthemostpromising,though,arewaterbasedbatteriesinspiredbythewayanelectriceel(鳗)storesitscharge.AgroupattheUniversityofCambridgehasusedtheeel’stechniquetoeupwithwhatitcalls“jellybatteries”.Thesearemadefromhydrogels(水凝胶)thatconsistoforganicpolymersthatcontainover60%water.Whereasmostbatteriesexperiencealossofconductivityifthematerialisbentorstretched,ajellybatterycanbestretcheduptooneandahalftimesitslengthwithnopowerloss.Jellybatteriesworkinmuchthesamewaythatbiologicalprocessesproduceelectricity.Theyrelyonthedifferentconcentrationsofelectricallychargedparticles,tocreateadifferenceinelectricalpotential,whichinturnproducesavoltage.Tiny,though,Jellybatteriescanincreasetheiroutputbybeingconnectedtogether.Anotherfeatureofthejellybatteryisthatthestrongmolecularbondsthatletthepolymersstretchalsoallowthematerialtorepairitselfveryquicklyifitisbroken.AChineseresearchgrouphasalsofoundencouragingresultswithaselfhealinghydrogelbattery.TheyrecentlyreportedinNanoResearchEnergythattheirbatterycouldsustainahighlevelofbendingandtwisting,andevenifbrokententimeswasstillcapableofselfhealing.Besideswearableandimplantabledevices,anotherpotentialmarketforstretchablebatteriesissoftrobotics.Foronething,stretchyponentswouldbesafertooperateamongpeoplethantherigidpartsofconventionalrobots.Theycouldalsohelppowerprostheticdevices,suchasglovesthatallowstroke(中风)victimstomovetheirhands.Allthisshouldprovideplentyofideasforwearableinnovations.32.Whatdrivespeopletoproduceflexiblebatteries?A.Popularityofwearabledevices.
