22、A race is on in solar engineering to create almost impossibly-thin, flexible solar panels. Stanford University researchers announced they have achieved record efficiencies in a promising class of new materials—which can be thinner than a piece of paper.
According to the study published in the journal Nature Communications, it uses a new material called “transition metal dichalcogenides” (TMDs). They absorb incredibly high volumes of sunlight that reach their surface compared to other solar materials.
“Imagine an autonomous drone (无人机) that powers itself with a solar panel atop its wing that is less than six micrometers thick.” said Koosha Nassiri Nazif, co-lead author of the study.
Slimming down is necessary because the king of solar materials, silicon, is much too heavy, large and rigid for applications where flexibility, lightweight and high power are important and excellent.
While TMDs hold great promise, research experiments to date have struggled to change more than 2% of the sunlight they absorb into electricity. But the scientists believe they could practically reach 27% efficiency with electrical improvements. That would be comparable with today’s top solar panels, silicon included.
Nazif told Forbes that the new materials are great candidates for next-generation electronics and solar cells. Chipmakers like Intel and the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company are already considering TMDs for their future technology. They could be used in a variety of mobile applications, including self-powered wearable devices and sensors, as well as giving a boost to lightweight airplanes and electric cars.
The ultra-thinness does come with engineering challenges, primarily in mass production. When transferring such a layer of TMD to a flexible, supporting material, the TMD layer is frequently damaged.
But the team thinks it is possible to overcome these challenges. Should they succeed, it could change solar power as we know it. “Silicon makes up 95 percent of the solar market today.” Nazif told Forbes. “This is why we aren’t seeing these applications for solar cells today; TMDs are going to change the landscape.”
【1】What is the biggest advantage of TMDs now?
A.They have the quality of remarkable thinness.
B.They can efficiently turn sunlight into energy.
C.They are comparable to top silicon panels.
D.They have excellent ability to reflect sunlight.
【2】What does Nazif stress in paragraph 6?
A.The appeal of TMDs to chipmakers.
B.The expectation for future tech.
C.The wide applications of solar energy.
D.The future prospects of TMDs.
【3】What can we expect of new solar panels in the future?
A.They could power all mobile devices.
B.They could be a competitive alternative.
C.They will revolutionize the energy market.
D.They will be produced on a large scale soon.
【4】Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A.Most Efficient Solar Panels Have Hit the Market.
B.Stanford Scientists Develop a New Green Material.
C.TMDs Could Be Used for Lightweight Solar Panels.
D.Challenges Are to Be Overcome to Promote TMDs.
23、 Imagine your mind as a library. As pleasant a room as a reader could wish. Now let me describe different sort of library: The bookcases have fallen, their glass fronts broken, and their contents messed across the floor. This one belongs to the disordered, anorexic(厌食) mind. At the age of 15, 3 was the state of my mind. For 10 years, I suffered the mental and physical pain of anorexia.
A new year usually made me nervous: A time for resolutions. In January 2019, I was 24. Ten years after diagnosis, I was what doctors call a “functioning” anorexic. I would eat enough to get by: never with any flavor. That year, I made a different sort of January resolution: To read all novels Dickens by December. Something changed, I began to be curious about food, wanting to share it, taste it. His scenes, his meals made me hungry. It also turned me into a walker. I wanted to see London as he had seen it: At night, on foot.
Siegfried Sassoon also rescued me.The poet recalls cold mornings before a hunt: “We got up at four o’clock, and fed ourselves with boiled eggs.” Stopping in a bush, he has sandwiches , and on the way home he keeps himself warm with thoughts of poached eggs on toast, tea...All those eggs! All that bread! Hot chocolate! (I hadn’t had a cup of hot chocolate in a decade.) With Sassoon as guide, I learnt, at the age of 25, to boil an egg.
Most helpful to my recovery were the words of the wizard Merlyn in T. H. White’s The Once and future King. “The best thing for being sad,” he tells the boy who will become King Arthur, “is to learn something. That is the only thing that never fails. . . ” Too many self-help guides say: Get fit, lose weight, eat right, make friends, find a hobby. . . Better that they should say: Learn something, read something, see something new. Feed your mind.Trigger your appetite for new books, and the other appetites-for food, for friends, for life-will follow.
【1】What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A.Reading in a pleasant library can help to treat anorexia.
B.An anorexic mind is to people what a disordered library is to readers.

C.By pretending to eat something.
D.By swallowing food without enjoying it.
【3】How does the author describe the process of his recovering from anorexia?
A.By listing examples.
B.By analyzing causes.
C.By making comparisons.
D.By giving definitions.
【4】What’s the main idea of this passage?
A.Appetite comes with eating.
B.Eat to live but do not live to eat.
C.A good book is a good medicine for the soul.
D.Books are the food for the hungry of great mind.
24、Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(沟渠)along the highway I travel daily to work.
There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours; the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, "I'II stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty.,." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding tool one year for my trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was upset to see that the highway department had removed the ditches
and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done
it when you first saw them blooming this spring."
A week ago we were shocked and sad to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a serious brain disease. She is20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful
memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.
【1】Why does the writer want to start a wildflower garden in her yard?

B.Because she can see the flowers every day for two weeks.
C.Because the flowers can remind her of her oldest sister-in-law.
D.Because she enjoys the way of life in company with the flowers.
【2】Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A.The blue flowers in the ditches always draw my attention.
B.We don't get on well with the sister-in-law in practice.
C.I never stopped to dig the flowers for some reason.
D.The sister-in-law lives far from us.
【3】According to the passage, the writer will .
A.stop to find the flowers whenever she drives along the highway
B.plant a variety of flowers in the garden in her yard in future
C.get as wonderful memories with the sister-in-law as before
D.get more close to the sister-in-law in the following days
【4】What is the theme of the story?
A.Actions speak louder than words.
B.No sweets without sweat.
C.Time and tide wait for no man.
D.Opportunity belongs to whoever is prepared.
