Jeremy and his wife Jennifer had recently moved to South Texas because of their love for nature. At the moment, they were living in a trailer(拖车) for the house was still under repair.
On a steamy Sunday morning in May, the couple were tidying their yard. At around 10:30 a.m., Jeremy began mowing the lawn while Jennifer worked on the garden. She had just reached down to grab a weed when she saw it : a western diamondback rattlesnake, right next to her hand. Jennifer leaped up as the snake, a yard long, rose into striking position, its dusty triangular head tensed and its tail rattling. “Snake!” yelled Jennifer as she backed away.
When Jeremy heard her cry, he figured she had run into one of the harmless rat snakes that often showed up on their land. He grabbed a shovel to shoo(用嘘声驱赶) the creature away and jogged around the house to the garden. Then he heard the rattling. His wife was cornered between some shrubs and the house, the snake directly in her path.
Jeremy first tried to scoop up the rattler using the shovel, without success. Then he did what was necessary: He raised the garden tool and brought the edge down hard through the snake’s body, an inch and a half below the head to cut off its head. Then Jennifer went into the house, her heart hammering, while Jeremy decided to move the dead reptile. He bent down to pick up a stick lying next to the snake’s head so that he could take it away. But before his hand even touched the ground, the snake attacked. The snake injected venom(毒液) into his hand.
“It bit me!” he yelled in horror. The truth is, the back-from-the-dead bites aren’t uncommon. Hearing his yell, Jennifer ran back into the trailer to get the car keys and meanwhile called 911. Fortunately, they arrived at the nearest hospital in time and Jeremy received timely treatment.

Six "sacrificial pits (祭祀坑)", dating back 3,200 to 4,000 years, were newly discovered in Sanxingdui Ruins site in Guanghan, Southwest China's Sichuan province. Over 500 artifacts, including gold masks, bronze wares, ivories, jades, and textiles, were unearthed from the site.
Sanxingdui site, first found in 1929, is generally considered as one of the most important archaeological sites along the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. However, large-scale excavation on the site only began in 1986, when two pits — widely believed for sacrificial ceremonies — were accidentally discovered.
Investigation in the area around No 1 and 2 pits was relaunched in October 2019, and No 3 pit was found in December 2019, according to Lei Yu, a researcher of Sichuan Provincial Cultural Relics and Archaeology Research Institute who heads the ongoing excavation. Thirty-four research universities and research institutes have cooperated in this project. He said the new discoveries will help to better understand many unexplained findings in 1986.
More excavation followed in March 2020, and five more pits were found last year. And detailed research began in October. Excavation capsules with hi-tech equipment were set up in the pits to better conserve the site.
Sanxingdui site covers an area of 12 square kilometers, and its core zone of an ancient city covers nearly 4 square kilometers. According to the National Cultural Heritage Administration, studies of Sanxingdui site will become a crucial project in an ongoing program Archaeology China, which tries to explain the origins of Chinese civilization and how diverse cultures communicate and come together.
8. What does the underlined word “excavation” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Discovery | B.Dig |
C.Exploration | D.Expansion |
A.By dividing the task of excavation into several parts. |
B.By cooperating with research universities and institutes. |
C.By using excavation capsule armed with hi-tech equipment. |
D.By conducting more investigations around the site. |
A.All sacrificial sites were discovered in the meantime. |
B.The excavation of Sanxingdui site only began in 1986. |
C.There were altogether six sacrificial pits discovered in Sanxingdui site |
D.The size of the core zone is approximately 1/3 times that of Sanxingdui site. |
A.Sacrificial pits were unearthed in Sanxingdui Site. |
B.Sanxingdui Site needed to be conserved. |
C.Sanxingdui discoveries cast light on ancient China. |
D.Hi- tech helped to excavate Sanxingdui Site. |
A sheet of transparent new material at a University of Maryland lab looks like it might be plastic. But it’s actually wood—and it could eventually be used to make energy-efficient windows or even see-through buildings.
"Compared to glass, wood has lower heat conductivity, and it's lighter, stronger, and more environmentally friendly," says Liangbing Hu, a materials science professor at the University of Maryland and one of the authors of a new study of the material.
The idea is to employ the material in buildings. With a window made from transparent wood instead of glass, for example, a building would take less energy to heat and cool. Because of the structure of the wood, the windows could also reduce glare from the sun while allowing in natural light.
Researchers have experimented with transparent wood in the past, but the new method is more sustainable.
Other methods usually put the wood in a chemical compound Nacl to remove lignin, part of the wood that gives it structure. But this can weaken the wood, and it produces waste that is hard to recycle. Hu and his team made slight changes to the process so it doesn't fully remove the lignin. By brushing hydrogen peroxide(过氧化物) over the wood and leaving it under a UV light, they removed only the parts of the lignin that give it color. The result is transparent wood that can be coated in epoxy(环氧树脂).
It’s just one of a number of ways scientists and engineers are rethinking how we can use this renewable resource in construction. Skyscrapers made entirely out of wood are gaining popularity in cities around the world. And scientists recently discovered a technique to grow wood in a lab, opening up the possibility of using wood without having to cut down a forest.
The transparent wood is 50% stronger than previous transparent wood and could even be used to build load-bearing walls in a building. It could also potentially be used in other ways, such as layers used in solar cells. A new company called InventWood is working to commercialize the technology.
12. Why would people like to choose transparent wood in their buildings in preference to glass?A.It can conduct heat more quickly. |
B.It is lighter and more delicate. |
C.It can let light in with less heat. |
D.It has higher energy consumption. |
A.The new method is less environmentally friendly. |
B.The new method can make the wood weaker. |
C.Researchers brushed Nacl over the wood. |
D.Researchers only took away the lignin related to color. |
A.This see-through wood can replace glass windows. |
B.This see-through wood is in mass production. |
C.This transparent wood has been grown in labs. |
D.This transparent wood is only popular in cities. |
A.The advantages of transparent wood. |
B.The prospect of transparent wood. |
C.The production of transparent wood. |
D.The companies of transparent wood. |
How to Build a Natural Swimming Pool

Though fairly common in Europe, natural swimming pools, are in their early stage in the United States. You can ask most American swimming-pool contractors to build a backyard pool.
But in recent years, a few builders and a growing number of homeowners have learned how to build pools.
Natural swimming pools require no harmful chemicals, are fairly low-tech.
A.The plants enrich the pool with oxygen. |
B.Chances are that they will roll out a long list of goods. |
C.You can make your pool as shallow or as deep as you want. |
D.And once established, they call for only a bit of management. |
E.It is the most ecological and economic way to build a conventional pool. |
F.They don’t rely on a mass of manufactured materials and chemical additives. |
G.The result is a beautiful and ecologically system that is relatively inexpensive to construct. |

Arthur was messy. He didn’t try to make messes, neither did he try to clean up much. His socks never made it into the hamper (洗衣篮). And he only picked up his toys when Mom threatened to throw them away. Most days, Mom followed Arthur around the house and cleaned up after him. She brushed the crumbs (碎屑) into her hand and threw them away after meals. She picked up his socks and made sure they got washed, dried and folded neatly before going back in the drawer.
One day, Mom asked Arthur to pick up his toy trains. He was reading a comic book and he was still reading, saying nothing. The trains had been on the living room floor since the morning.
“You know what, Arthur? I’m not going to ask you again. I’m done cleaning today.” And with that. Mom put her feet up on the sofa and picked up a book to read.
At dinner time, Arthur noticed that there was a big pile of crumbs at his place at the table. After dinner, Arthur’s feet felt cold. He went to his room and opened his drawer, but the drawer was empty. “Mom, where are my socks?” Arthur called.
“There weren’t any socks in your hamper, so I didn’t wash them,” Mom said. Arthur felt unhappy. Now his feet would be cold, unless he wanted to wear dirty socks from the floor. He decided to stay barefoot.
When it was time for bed, Arthur said good night to Mom and turned to go upstairs. Arthur stepped right on his toy train in his bare feet. “Ouch!” cried Arthur. “That really hurt !”
