27、ce makes use of the temperature difference between the Earth and outer space to create electricity. As long as one side of it is cooler than the other, the generator can produce electricity. The cooler side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate. That plate is sealed beneath a transparen

At night, the top plate can get a couple of degrees Celsius cooler than the bottom of the generator. Researchers tested a 20-cen
29、timeter prototype one clear December night in Stanford University, California. The generator produced up to 25 milliwatts of power per square meter of the device. That was enough power to light a small light emitting diode, or a LED bulb. Further improvements might increase its production to at leas
30、t 500 milliwatts per square meter.

36、gh on the mountain. “We believe the best way to get a full scientific picture of Qomolangma is not just to do one kind of science,” says Paul Mayewski of the University of Maine, the leader of the effort.

37、re. Ice cores (冰核) will allow scientists to go back in timetens, hundreds and perhaps thousands of years to learn about the environment.

38、 weather stations, which will document upcoming weather trends for years to come. One of the hardest tasks fell to Mayewskis colleague Mariusz Potoeki, who hoped to drill ice cores at several places on the mountain, including the South Col (25,938 feet) and the top of Qomolangma (29,035 feet). The j
39、ob required a specially designed drill system powered by batteries, and an excellent team to figure out how to prevent the cores from becoming liquid during their long journey back to the University of Maines laboratory for analysis. Potocki abandoned his summit (山顶) attempt due to the crowds of nor
40、mal climbers. To his relief, Potocki succeeded in taking the highest ice core ever recovered, at just above Camp Four26,312 feet above sea level. “The ice doesnt lie.” Mayewski says. “The very idea that the highest part of the planet hasnt been spared from human activity ought to be a real wake-up c
41、all for everybody.”32. Which way does Paul Mayewski suggest to fully study Qomolangma? A. Working on it remotely in labs. B. Teaming up with more countries. C. Doing many kinds of science. D. Turning it into a real lab.33. Why does the team analyze ice cores? A. To document upcoming weather change.
42、B. To get a unique picture of climate trends. C. To know more about the past environment. D. To predict the future of the mountain.34. What difficulty did Mariusz Potocki face? A. Improving the special drill system. B. Drilling the oldest ice cores at some places. C. Conducting fieldwork above Camp
43、Four. D. Delivering frozen ice cores to the lab.35. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Potocki got ice cores at 29,035 feet. B. Human activity has affected Qomolangma. C. Ice cores can serve as a warning for us. D. Normal climbers helped with Potockis work.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后
