21、The burning of coal may be falling out of favor as a means of generating heat and electricity, but that doesn’t mean it no longer has valuable uses. The team of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is using coal for a new economy.
The project is led by Associate Professor Andrea Fratalocchi. While reading about challenges of ending the use of coal in power generation, Fratalocchi was struck by a novel possible use for coal. “Why don’t we use coal for seawater desalination (脱盐)?” Fratalocchi recalls, still excited. Capable of taking in sunlight, the black mineral adds to the list of substances in dark colors serving the purpose, which the team is on a long-standing hunt for.
Fralalocchi and his team began to explore the use of a material known as carbonized compressed powder (压缩粉末), also CCP, which is created by breaking coal into powder, and then pressing that powder back into a solid that has more tiny holes—it can also be made into a desired shape. The team mixed CCP with natural cotton fibers, producing a block which was then placed within a seawater-containing container, with its bottom touching water surface. While sunlight heated the black surface of the block, the inside fibers helped water flow in and through the block from the bottom. When that liquid water reached the hot surface, it turned into steam which rose and condensed (冷凝) on the inside of a specially shaped cover. That condensation then flew down the cover and was collected as fresh, drinkable water. The seawater’s salt content remained behind within the CCP. A simple wash was enough to remove most of it, so the material could be reused multiple times.
KAUST has partnered with the Dutch start-up PERA Complexity to promote the technology. The material will see its first use in a pilot plant in Brazil. “CCP is abundant in nature and reasonable to use, besides being lightweight and highly changeable,” says team member Marcella Bonifazi. “The device’s desalination rate per unit of raw material is two to three times higher than that of any other solar desalination system, but it produces fresh water at around one-third the expense of current state-of-the-art technologies.”
【1】What has Fratalocchi’s team been seeking for?
A．Fibers functioning well with CCP.
B．Green ways to desalinate seawater.
C．New industrial applications of coal.
D．Dark-colored materials for desalination.
【2】How did the seawater get into the CCP block?
A．Through the tiny holes.
B．Through CCP.
C．Through cotton fibers.
D．Through a special cover.
【3】Which feature of CCP does Marcella Bonifazi stress?
A．Being eco-friendly.
B．Being low-cost.
C．Being efficient.
D．Being flexible.
【4】What does the text mainly talk about?
A．Drinkable water will be got from the sea.
B．CCP is expected to be in real-life use soon.
C．Coal finds new use in desalination technology.
D．Scientists have made a breakthrough in desalination.
22、To the delight of bookworms, anyone who has ever told you burying your head in a book means you’re being unsociable will have to cat their wards. A new study suggests those who regularly read, especially fiction, are actually nicer and more empathetic (善解人意) people.
The study, carried out by Kingston University London, and presented at the British Psychological Society conference in Brighton, UK, last week, also found that those who just watched television seemed to be less kind and understanding of other people.
For the study, the researchers questioned 123 people on their preferences for books, TV shows, and plays. They were also quizzed about the type of entertainment they preferred from comedy or romance to drama. Then they were tested on their interpersonal skills. The researchers asked them about their behavior towards others, whether they understood and respected others’ points of view, and whether they actively helped other people.
Drawing on these responses sheet, the researchers found some mind-boggling results. They discovered that those who read more showed greater positive social behavior and a better ability to empathize with others, while those who preferred watching TV didn’t show the same ability to empathize and were more likely to show unsociable behavior.
They also found the forms of fiction people preferred were linked to their interpersonal skills and behavior. Those who preferred fiction displayed the most positive social skills. Romance and drama lovers showed the ability to see others’ points of view, while comedy fans were particularly, able to relate to others the most.
The researchers concluded that those who read fiction regularly are more well-adapted to see things from other people’s points of view, which makes them better at understanding people. However, they do acknowledge that their study didn’t conclude if the effects are causal — does reading make you nicer and more empathetic, or do more empathetic people tend to read fiction? Even so, picking up a book can’t hurt, and might just make the world a nicer place.
【1】How did the researchers conduct the research?
A．By making questionnaire surveys.
B．By comparing experiment statistics.
C．By observing participants’ behaviors.
D．By referring to previous study reports.
【2】What does the underlined word “mind-boggling” mean in paragraph 4?
A．Embarrassing.
B．Satisfying.
C．Amazing.
D．Disappointing.
【3】What can improve people’s empathetic abilities the most according to the study?
A．Reading fiction and comedy.
B．Enjoying romance and drama.
C．Taking part in social activities.
D．Watching plays on social media.
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．All people support the research result.
B．Further study is needed on this subject.
C．The nicer and kinder people like reading.
D．Reading can help people make more friends.
23、Language is always changing. In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change, either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too.
There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families.
【1】The early language had ________.
A．a lot of problems
B．words and easy grammar
C．words but no grammar
D．grammar but not many words
【2】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A．Languages change fast.
B．Languages really don't want to change.
C．Language changes with changes of society.
D．Spanish and English change.
【3】From this article we can see that ________.
A．language can change very slowly or very quickly
B．if we don't change, then our language won't change, either
C．we should give our plants new names
D．English and Spanish are the only languages that have change
24、Dear editor( 编辑),
Can't your newspaper do something about the custom (习惯) of hitchhiking?
A short time ago, on a car travel I counted at least 50 people standing beside the road, asking for rides. Many of them were young women.
Don't they understand how dangerous it is to get into the car driven by a stranger? How much do they know about the driver? Is he a good driver or not? They know nothing!
Many of these young hitchhikers may come from good families. Don't their parents teach them anything about the world? I always taught my children not to talk to strangers. I never let them take rides from people they didn't know.
Isn't there enough crime (犯罪) today without asking for trouble by hitchhiking? On the other hand, hitchhiking may bring some traffic trouble. Don't you think what I said is true?
