　　Ⅲ.閱讀理解

　　Harvard researchers have created a tough，low-cost，biodegradable(可生物降解的) material inspired by insects’ hard outer shells.The material’s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic.The material，made from shrimp(蝦) shells and proteins produced from silk，is called “shrilk”．It is thin，clear，flexible and strong.

　　A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability.Plastic’s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and ’60s.Decades later，however，plastic’s very durability(耐用性) is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags，or short-lived consumer goods，used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries.What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years?

　　Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill，but its basic components are used as fertilizer(肥料)，and so will enrich the soil.

　　Shrilk has great potential，the inventors said.Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature，found in everything ranging from shrimp shells，insect bodies to living plants.That makes shrilk low cost，and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material.

　　Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab.The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet，so they’re exploring ways to use it in wet environments.They’re also developing simpler production processes，which could be used for non-medical products，like for computer cases and other products inside the home.They’re even exploring combining it with other materials，like carbon fibers，to give it new properties.(2024·湖南，C)

　　1．Paragraph 1 of the passage is mainly about shrilk’s ________.

　　A．remarkable design

　　B．interesting name

　　C．major features

　　D．basic elements

　　答案　C

　　解析　段落大意題。第一段中的眾多字眼，如tough，low-cost，biodegradable，thin，clear，flexible和strong等均是用來描述這種新材料特點(diǎn)的。而關(guān)于它的設(shè)計(jì)并未提及；這種材料的名字在本段中有所涉及，但并非本段的中心；此外，本段簡單介紹了制作這種材料的物質(zhì)，并未大篇幅進(jìn)行講解，也不是本段的中心。

　　2．What has become a concern about plastic?

　　A．Using it properly.

　　B．Producing it cheaply.

　　C．Developing its properties quickly.

　　D．Evaluating its contributions fairly.

　　答案　A

　　解析　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句可知，塑料的耐用性讓人們對如何合理、恰當(dāng)?shù)厥褂弥T如塑料袋等一些一次性產(chǎn)品的問題開始關(guān)注。A項(xiàng)意為“恰當(dāng)?shù)厥褂谩保侨藗兯P(guān)注的問題，符合題目要求。B項(xiàng)意為“便宜地生產(chǎn)”；C項(xiàng)意為“迅速發(fā)展其性能”；D項(xiàng)意為“公平地評估它的貢獻(xiàn)”，均未在文中提及。
