32、 wood from the balsa tree, which is native to South and Central America, and claims to be five times more thermally efficient than glass.The team treated balsa wood in an oxidizing bath that bleaches(漂白) it of nearly all visibility and then penetrated it with PVA - creating a product that is virtual

33、ly transparent. Unlike traditional glass, the transparent wood can withstand much stronger impacts and will bend or splinter when damaged, instead of shattering(粉碎).The transparent wood was created by teams at the University of Maryland and University of Colorado, which set out to find a greener alt

34、ernative to conventional glass a production that creates 25,000 tons in emissions each year. Along with contributing to greenhouse gases, glass contributes to a loss of energy.“Residential building windows in particular account for 1025% of the heat loss due to their poor thermal management capabili

35、ty” the team wrote in the study.“Exploring energy efficient window materials is thus highly desirable to address heating costs, energy shortages, and the global impact of climate change associated with increased carbon emissions.”The team notes that the bonding between PVA and cellulose(纤维素) in the

36、wood, creates a tightly packed structure that allows for more thermal protection and makes it more durable and lighter than glass.“Switching to transparent wood could prove to be cost efficient as well,” researchers shared in a statement. “It is made from a sustainable, renewable resource with low c

37、arbon emissions. It can be produced with existing industrial processing equipment, making its manufacturing an easy prospect.”8. What does the underlined word “thermally” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Associated with cost.B. Connected with heat.C. Associated with emissions.D. Connected with structure.9. Wh

38、at do we know about the “transparent wood”?A. It will shatter when damaged.B. It has replaced traditional glass.C. It is more durable than glass.D. It contributes to greenhouse gases.10. Why is the residential building windows mentioned in Paragraph 5?A. To show the disadvantages of conventional gla

39、ss.B. To show the efficiency of thermal management.C. To explain the importance of building designing.D. To explain the global impact of climate change.11. What helps the transparent wood in thermal protection?A. Its tightly packed structure.B. Its sustainable, renewable resource.C. Its easy manufac

40、turing prospect.D. Its industrial processing equipment.【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种可以取代传统玻璃的新型透明木材，并介绍了这种新型材料的特点及优势。【8题详解】词句猜测题。根据第五段“Residential building windows in particular account for 1025% of the heat loss due to their poor thermal management capability（特别是住宅建筑的窗户，由于其热管理能力差，造成了

41、10-25%的热损失）”可猜测，导致1025%的热量损失的原因肯定是与热量相关的管理能力差，由此可猜测句中的“thermal”的意义与热量有关，故第二段中的“thermally”作为副词形式也与“热量（heat）”相关。故选B项。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Unlike traditional glass, the transparent wood can withstand much stronger impacts and will bend or splinter when damaged, instead of shattering.（与传统玻璃不同的是，透明的木材可以

42、承受更强的冲击，当损坏时，它会弯曲或分裂，而不是碎掉。）”可知，透明木材比传统玻璃更能承受住强烈的冲击，不易破碎。比传统玻璃更持久耐用。故选C项。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段 “Residential building windows in particular account for 1025% of the heat loss due to their poor thermal management capability（特别是住宅建筑的窗户，由于其热管理能力差，造成了10-25%的热损失）”，可知第五段提到住宅建筑的窗户是为了表明传统玻璃的缺点。故选A项。【11题详解】细节理解题

43、。根据倒数第二段中“the bonding between PVA and cellulose(纤维素) in the wood, creates a tightly packed structure that allows for more thermal protection（聚乙烯醇(PVA)和木材中的纤维素之间的结合，形成了一种紧凑的结构，可以提供更多的热保护）”可知，使透明木材能够保护热量的原因是它特殊的紧凑的内部结构。故选A项。DAt the start of nearly every doctors visit, chances are that you will be aske

44、d to get your weight measured. But many conversations around weight have become an obstacle, not a help, in the campaign to make people healthier. Doctors recommendations to drop pounds are still extremely common, even though using body size as a one-size-fits-all way can lead to ignorance of the co

45、mplexity of an individual s particular physiology. Many studies have shown heavier people are at higher risk for high blood pressure, diabetes and other diseases. But the big picture is not the whole picture. Researchers have identified some fat people considered to be “metabolically healthy”. Howev

46、er, one interesting report published in 2016 found that unhealthy thin people were twice as likely to get diabetes as healthy fat people. Clearly, although the association between being overweight and disease is very real, individual experience can vary greatly and depends on personal physiology and

47、 behavior. Despite such findings, among the more terrible effects of weight-central health care are the increased shame experienced by the overweight. The well-reported experience of numerous fat people is that doctors often set weight loss without examining them. Research over the past two decades has shown that health professionals have negative attitudes toward fat people. Not only that but doctors appointments with fat patients are shorter on average, and some r
