One boy was painting a heart, but it was dark, empty and lifeless. It lacked the vibrant (明亮的) colors that his fellow artists had used.When I asked him
20、 about it, he said the heart was that color because his own heart felt black. He told me that he was very sick, and his mom was very sick too.

21、do to help.”I told him I was sorry and I could understand why he had made his heart a dark color.

27、. I love the Internet. I would post on someones micro blog to say “happy birthday”. I would send an e-mail congratulating someone on his or her new job. But Christmas e-cards? No way.

28、ne for having me stay at their house, for example, or to express my sadness if someone had died. Sitting down with a pile of at least 50 Christmas cards every year is part of that whole “Christmas spirit” tradition.

29、etter. But cards play even more of a special role at Christmas.

With half an inch of rain falling every year, humans can hardly survive there for a week with no water. But the Namib beetle (甲虫) does just fin
44、e. It collects morning dew (露水) that condenses (凝结) on its back.Inspired by this little creature, 27-year-old Edward Linacre, a former student from Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia, has designed a new “Airdrop” irrigation system which can pull water from even the driest des
45、ert air. His invention has won the 2011 James Dyson Award, an international design award. Hopes are high that the system will be able to solve the problems of growing plants on dry land, according to the Daily Mail.Linacre studied the Namib beetle and found that it had hydrophilic (吸水的) skin on its
46、back, which helped catch water molecules (分子) passing in the air. These water molecules accumulated into small drops of liquid water. He realized that as long as the air temperature was low enough, even the driest air contains water molecules that can be extracted (提取).Following this principle, he d
47、esigned the new system which works by pumping air through a network of underground pipes to cool it to the point at which water condenses. The water is then delivered directly to the roots of plants.According to the research, about 11.5 milliliters of water could be collected from every cubic (立方) m
48、eter of air in the driest desert. Further development could raise that number even higher.The idea of getting water from the air is not new. However, the Airdrop has certain advantages compared with its competitors. Similar systems often require great amounts of energy because they use refrigeration
49、 (冷却) equipment to lower the temperature. But Airdrop simply uses the temperature difference between the air and the cool earth underground.This clever biomimicry (仿生学) system could provide regular watering to plants being grown in the worlds driest places. “Biomimicry is a powerful weapon in an eng
50、ineers armory (军械库),” said James Dyson. “Airdrop shows how simple, natural principles like the condensation of water can be applied to good effect through skilled design and robust (强健的) engineering.”48. What is the article mainly about?A. How the Namib beetle survives in the Namib Desert.B. How the
51、 “Airdrop” irrigation system was designed and how it works.C. How the “Airdrop” irrigation system has benefited the humans.D. How biomimicry helps researchers in scientific research.49.

52、y in very cold regionsC. has been used to help plants grow on dry land D. works by pumping cold air directly to the roots of plants50. By saying “Biomimicry is a powerful weapon in an engineers armory”, James Dyson meansthat .A. biomimicry can help engineers invent powerful weaponsB. biomimicry can
53、offer engineers a lot of inspiration for new inventionsC. biomimicry is the most promising field for engineers to exploreD. some simple and natural principles are easily ignored by engineers四、单词拼写 (共10小题;每小题0.5分,满分5分)51.
