Their colorful diets did not affect their growth, the team, which included engineers and biologists from the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory in India, reports in the journal ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering. (The researchers didnt look too deep
17、ly into how the dyes affected the silkworms health. After all, silkworms die when people harvest their silk.)The team made dyeing silk this way because coloring fabric normally uses large amounts of fresh water. The water gets polluted with dangerous chemicals in the process, requiring costly treatm

However, it remains to be seen if its commercially successful. In this experiment, the Indian team tested seven dyes
19、, which are cheap and popular in the industry.The scientists found different dyes moved through silkworms bodies differently. Some never made it into the worms silk at all.

22、。你听说过蚕能吐出粉色的丝吗?印度的科学家做了大量的实验,他们通过给蚕喂一些喷过染色剂的桑树叶子,最终成功地使蚕吐出了粉色的丝。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一句话“Brown cows may not actually make chocolate milk, but pink silkworms(蚕)do produce pink silk, a team of scientists has discovered. ”(棕色的奶牛可能不会生产巧克力牛奶,但一组科学家发现粉色的蚕会生产粉色的蚕丝),再对全文的理解可知,科学家们通过给蚕喂一些喷过染色剂的食物,使其吐出粉色的丝。文中介绍了实
23、验过程和实验结论,所以应该是一篇科技报告。故选A。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句中的 the team fed ordinary silkworms mulberry(桑树)leaves that had been sprayed(喷洒)with fabric(织物)dyes(染色剂). Out of seven tested dyes, only one worked, producing a thread that reminded me of pink-dyed hair.(研究小组给普通的蚕喂养了喷洒了织物染料的桑叶。在七种测试染料中,只有一种起作用,产生了一种让我想起粉
24、色染色头发的线。)可知,科学家用被喷洒织物染色剂的桑树叶子喂养普通的蚕。在七个被测试的染料中,只有一种染料起作用,这种蚕丝,让我想起染上粉色的头发。由此推知,蚕之所以会吐出粉色的丝是因为它们被喂了含有染色剂的食物。故选D。【6题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中“the team, which included engineers and biologists from the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory in India ”(该研究小组成员包括来自印度CSIR国家化学实验室的工程师和生物学家。)可知,实验是在印度进行的。故选B。【7题详解】细节理解题
25、。根据最后一段倒数第二句 Only one dye, named direct acid fast red, showed up in the final, washed silk threads.

36、oom table”可知下午1点半,28岁的马腾配拉(Mrten Pella)的智能手机响了起来,这表示我们不能继续围坐在他家客厅的桌子旁工作了,该锻炼身体了。所以Marten Pella电话响起的时候他在客厅,是在自己家里,故答案为A。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“ In addition, each participant shares daily objectives with the rest of the group upon arrival, and is invited to report back on whether or not they have achieved
37、them at the end of the day. ”可知,另外,每位参与者都要在开始工作前与其他人分享自己每天的目标,然后在一天的工作结束时汇报自己是否实现了目标。所以人们见面后先谈论告诉对方他们的日常计划。故答案为C。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段 He had been giving lectures on the benefits of collective intelligence, but realised he was spending most of his own time working alone at his kitchen table.可知,他一直在讲集
38、体智慧的好处,但他意识到自己大部分时间都是独自一人在餐桌旁工作。由此可推断Franzen的意思是他们这些人相似的处境就是总是独自一人工作,故答案为A。【11题详解】主旨大意题。主要围绕“Hoffice行动”展开,即邀请自由职业者或可以远程工作的全职员工在彼此的家中工作,以提高工作效率,避免与社会隔绝,享受积极的社交生活。由此判断出,短文的最佳标题为“放弃办公桌到陌生人家里办公”。故答案为D。DA new study has discovered that meditation (冥想) and oxygen sport together reduce depression.
