3、as empty when he got in,but a few minutes later,another man got in and sat down on the seat opposite his.Mark Twain looked at the man and thought that this man looked quite unpleasant.However,it would be impolite to say nothing in that situation,so he said good morning to the man,and they began to t
4、alk.First they talked about the heavy snow and then they talked about Maine.The stranger said,“We have some beautiful woods in Maine.It would be a pity to come to Maine without spending some time there.I suppose you have been in our woods,havent you?”“Yes,I have,”answered Mark Twain.“Ive just spent

27、知答案为B。*结束高考链接2.(2012江苏卷)Medical drugs sometimes cause more damage than they cure. One solution to this problem is to put the drugs inside a capsule, protecting them from the bodyand the body from themuntil they can be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger(引发) this releas
28、e, including changing temperature, acidity, and so on. But triggers can come with their own risksburns, for example. Now, researchers in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining near-infrared light (NIR,近红外线) on the drug in the capsule.The idea of using light to lib
29、erate the drug in the capsule isnt new. Researchers around the globe have developed polymers (聚合物) and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb cither ultraviolet (UV,紫外线) or visible light. But tissues also readily absorb UV and visible light, which means the drug release can be tri
30、ggered only near the skin, where the light can reach the capsule. NIR light largely passes through tissues, so researchers have tried to use it as a trigger. But few compounds(化合物)absorb NIR well and go through chemical changes.That changed last year when Adah Almutairi, a chemist at the University
31、of California, San Diego, reported that she and her colleagues had designed a polymer that breaks down when it absorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIR-absorbing group called o-nitrobenzyl (ONB). When they catch the light, ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to its bre
32、akdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber, and it could be poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer.So Almutairi and her colleagues reported creating a new material for capsules thats even better. This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer
33、. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的) components that make it highly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols, they cap each reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light,
34、the reactive groups are exposed and break the long polymer into two short chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown, potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. Whats more, Almutairi says, Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells.63.Accord
35、ing to the passage, which of the following could be the best trigger?A. Temperature change.B. NIR light.C. Acidity change.D. UV light.64.Why in ONB unsatisfactory?A.It breaks down when it absorbs NIR light.B.It falls off the polymer and triggers drug release.C.It has not come onto the market up till
36、 now.D.It is not effective enough and could be poisonous.65. Which word can be used to complete the following process of changes?A. Protected B. formedC. exposedD. combined【考点】科技问说明文【文章大意】。本文是一篇科技文,围绕“怎样使用胶囊,让吃药更加安全、疗效好”这个主题展开研究。63.【答案】B【试题解析】细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Now, researchers in California have desig
37、ned what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining near-infrared light on the drug in the capsule.”可知,应选B项。 【难度】一般64.【答案】D【试题解析】推理判断题。根据第三段最后两句中“ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to its breakdown”和“and it could be poisonous to cells”可知,应选D项。【难度】较难65.【答案】C【试题解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段第五句中“When the Bhc
38、s absorb NIR light, the reactive groups are exposed”可知此处用exposed,即C项正确。【难度】一般【长难句解析】1. Researchers around the globe have developed polymers (聚合物) and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb cither ultraviolet (UV,紫外线) or visible light.本句是polymers (聚合物) and other materials的定语从句, whe
39、n 引导的时间状语从句。2. This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的) components that make it highly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature本句是called动词过去分词做后置定语,修饰a long chain of compounds. 后面是reactive(易反应的) components的定语从句*结束Police
40、today stepped up a murder probe(调查)after a father was killed by a gang. They attacked him with an axe.

Police officers initially sealed off the area for forensic(法医的) examination but later allowed his relatives to lay flowers. Following a post
