Dear Li Hua,
In your last email,you mentioned you felt frustrating at your small vocabulary.Now,I’d like to share you my ideas.
In fact,it’s not such hard to build a large vocabulary—you have to keep at it daily,but pretty soon you will find you have an excellent vocabulary.One of the effective ways are to read good books and you’d better to read at least one good book a week.It’s far good than any other method because you can improve your vocabulary while read an interesting piece of literature.Another nice thing is that you can learn new words and its usages unconsciously,which will help enlarge your vocabulary natural.
Yours,
Peter

One of the great 7. (difficulty)in exploring the far side of the Moon is that it blocks all radio signals,8.

Chang’e 4 will make astronomical observations and examine the structure and mineral composition of the ground above and below the surface,10. researchers believe will provide insights into the solar system’s early days and perhaps even the origin of the first stars.

Where you choose to stay can make or break your vacation experience.But even the most experienced travelers may not know the difference between the two main types of homes-away-from-home—hotels and motels. 1. The answer isn’t as simple as you’d think.
These two types of lodging(住宿)have the same basic purpose—a place for travelers to sleep.2. For instance,they came to be for different reasons,and at very different times.
The word“hotel”dates back to the 1600s and comes from a French word,hôtel.That word,just like the English one.referred to a place that provides lodging,meals,entertainment,and other services to travelers. 3. This word dates back to the 1920s and combines the words“hotel”and“motor.”As America’s major highway system developed,so did motels,filling the need for roadside stops for motorists traveling cross-country.
4. Hotels tend to be built for longer stays,while motels are intended more for one-or two-night stops along a journey.Because of this,hotels are much more likely to have offerings like lounges,gyms,and entertainment.
5. Want the place you stay to be just as much a part of your travel experience as anything else? Choose a hotel,Just need a place to pop in and out of to shower and sleep? A motel might be the better choice.
A.There are many secrets that hotels won’t tell you.
B.But there are plenty of features that set them apart.
C.Have you ever stayed in a motel on your vacation?
D.Motels,on the other hand,are a much more recent lodging option.
E.Besides their first letters,is there any real difference between them?
F.So,in the end,it comes down to what you want from your trip and from your lodging.
G.There are also other differences that can help you figure out which type of place you’re in.
Wood has many great characteristics that make it the perfect building material.It is cheap,durable,easily available,and most importantly,environmentally sustainable.The one thing it is not,is transparent! Now thanks to a team of scientists at Stockholm’s KTH Royal Institute of Technology the material may even be able to add that feature to its already impressive list.
Lead researcher Dr,Lars Berglund said he was inspired to create the transparent wood after learning how Japanese researchers had developed a see-through paper for use in flexible display screens for electronic devices.The team began by pulling out the wood’s lignin(木质素).The lignin-free wood was then dipped into a polymer(聚合物)and baked at a temperature of 158°F for four hours.The result was a hybrid product that was not only stronger and lighter than the original wood but also,almost transparent.The researchers were able to adjust the level of transparency by varying the amount of the polymer injected and also by changing the thickness of the wood.
While scientists have previously created a see-through wood for small-scale applications like computer chips,the transparent wood is the first one being considered for large scale applications.The researchers,who revealed their findings in Biomacromolecules on April 11,picture using the transparent wood in buildings to allow for more natural light,or to create windows that let in the desired amount of light without sacrificing privacy.
Wood that allows light to pass through could lead to a brighter future for homes and buildings.Berglund also thinks the wood could play a significant role in the design of solar panels.The semitransparent material would be able to keep light longer and give it more time to interact with the conductor,thus resulting in better solar efficiency.Additionally,substituting the currently used glass with this new product would help solar energy manufacturers improve their carbon footprint and lower the cost.They are now experimenting with ways to scale up the manufacturing process so that the transparent material is cost-effective to make and easy to use.
1.What does the underlined part“that feature”in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Cheap. B. Durable. C. Sustainable. D. Transparent.
2.Which of the following correctly shows the process in which the transparent wood is made?
①Dip the wood into a polymer. ②Adjust the amount of the polymer.
③Make the wood lignin-free. ④Bake the wood for some time.
A. ③→①→④→② B. ③→①→②→④
C. ①→②→③→④ D. ④→③→②→①
3.Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. Berglund got the idea of transparent wood while making paper.
B. Varying the amount of the polymer changes the wood’s hardness.
C. The transparent wood would be used only for homes and buildings.
D. The cost of making the transparent wood still needs to be cut down.
4.What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The bright future of the transparent wood.
B. The wood’s role in the design of solar panels.
C. The disadvantages of the currently used glass.
D. Solar energy manufacturers’carbon footprint.
