1、专题十四 科普知识类-2-(2018全国)A build-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available.Developed by two doctors in the U.S.Department of Agriculture,its an excellent water collector.Unfortunately,you must carry the necessary equip

2、ment with you,since its all but impossible to find natural substitutes.The only components required,though,are a 55 sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic,six feet of plastic tube,and a containerperhaps just a drinking cupto catch the water.These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fa

3、stened on your belt.-3-To construct a working still,use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep.Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catchers productivity.Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole.Then lay the tube in place so that one end r

4、ests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs upand outthe side of the hole.Next,cover the hole with the plastic sheet,securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheets center down with a rock.The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体)with 45-degree-angled sides.The low p

5、oint of the sheet must be centered directly over,and no more than three inches above,the cup.-4-The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic.Ground water evaporates(蒸发)and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form,run down the material,and fall off into the cup.When t

6、he container is full,you can suck the refreshment out through the tube,and wont have to break down the still every time you need a drink.-5-32.What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A.Its delicate.B.Its expensive.C.Its complex.D.Its portable.33.What does the underli

8、olar still works,drops of water come into the cup from.A.the plastic tubeB.outside the holeC.the open airD.beneath the sheet-7-【文章结构】-8-【难点分析】Unfortunately,you must carry the necessary equipment with you,since its all but impossible to find natural substitutes.不幸的是,你必须随身携带这些必备的仪器,因为要找到天然的替代品几乎是不可能的。

9、分析:since.是原因状语从句;it是形式主语,to find.是不定式作真正的主语。all but意为“几乎”。When the container is full,you can suck the refreshment out through the tube,and wont have to break down the still every time you need a drink.当容器装满了水,你就可以通过吸水管把这些提神的水吸出来,而不必每次饮水时都要把装置拆掉。分析:该句中的“every time you need a drink”是时间状语从句,表示“每当的时候”。-

10、9-【语篇导读】美国农业部的两位博士研制出一种蒸馏器。在水资源短缺的区域,这是一种非常不错的获得饮用水的设备。32.D 推理判断题。从文章第一段的“These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.”可知,这种集水器设备携带起来很方便。人们可以把它折叠成一个小包并系在腰带上。33.B词义猜测题。从文章第二段的“To construct a workingstill.”和画线词后的productivity可推断出画线部分指的是the still。34.C细节理解题。从文章第三段的“Next,c

12、al and fall off into the cup.”可知,这种蒸馏器的工作原理是创造一个温室。地面的水向上蒸发并在塑料布上聚集形成小水滴,然后水滴顺着塑料布流下来落到杯子里。-11-A(2018天津C)Theres a new frontier in 3D printing thats beginning to come into focus:food.Recent development has made possible machines that print,cook,and serve foods on a mass scale.And the industry isnt st
