That's what this material does. It is developed for the
British Army. The fabric is made of yarn. The yarn can conduct
electricity from a battery pack to anywhere in your clothing. It
can charge your gadgets on contact. It can carry either power
or data through a soldier's clothes, helmet, or backpack. It can
gear that otherwise needs separate power sources. The
materials have been field tested. But they still need to be
weather-proofed. Right now, charging up a battery still involves
wires, chargers, and sockets. Inductive charging is developing.
But you can not just put your phone down on any surface and
start powering up. And what if that could be hacked together
with some kind of inductive charging? You'd be able to almost
totally cut the cord with your gadgets. Yes, you'd need to
charge up whatever power source you're using now and then.
But keep a pair of khakis plugged in while they hang in the
closet. A. But what if your pants or jacket or bag could charge
your phone, or laptop or anything else? B. The fabric is
developed by Intelligent Textiles. C. Imagine having jeans that
charge your phone just by putting it in your pocket. D. It is a lot
different from having to remember to plug in your phone. E.
And that's all great, but would this ever be made it into your
home, and charge your phone or laptop someday? 二、阅读理
解:阅读下面的短文,根据文章内容从 A、B、C 三个选项中选
出一个最佳选项。
Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea.
Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The
sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel
to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two—thirds of the
world's population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many
resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are
beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped
to supply many of man's needs.
The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's
technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been
carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals
exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined (开采).
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large
quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient
skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy.
Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be
used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean
currents (水流) and waves offer possible use as a source of
energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply
under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has
made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve.
Experts believe that by the year 2000 the problems that
prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy
sources of the sea will be largely solved. 1. The major things
that the sea offers man are A. fish and oil B. warm temperature
and ocean currents C. the food, energy sources, and minerals
2. The sea serves the needs of man because A. in provides
man with food B. it supplies man with minerals C. all of the
above 3. We can conclude from this passage that A. the sea
resources have largely been used up B. the sea, in the broad
sense, has not yet been developed C. the problems that
prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources
of the sea have already been solved. 4. The underlined words
Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably mean A. the
people in Asia B. African people C. European people 5. The
best title for this passage is A. Sea Harvest B. Technology for
Exploiting the Sea C. Man and the Sea
