参考答案

参考解析
解析:
根据句法关系可以判断,后半句“a piece 100 miles thick is clearer than a standard windowpane”是对空格处词语的进一步解释,主要说明光纤电缆的材料的透明度比较高,因此选项中符合句意的只有E transparent(透明的;清澈的);A fragile 脆弱的,易碎的;B immaculate 完美的,洁净的,无瑕疵的;C iridescent 彩虹色的,闪光的;D tangible 有形的,切实的,可触摸的。

考题 共用题干 第一篇Graphene' s SuperstrengthBig technology comes in tiny packages.New ccii phones and personal computers get snialler every year, which means these electronics require even smaller components on the inside.Engineer; are looking for creative ways to build these components,and they'ye turned their eyes to graphene,a superthin material, made of carbon,that could change the future of electronics.This year's Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to Andre Geim and Kostya Novoselov from the University of Manchester,U.K.for the discovery of graphene.Graphdne isn't just small;it's "the thinnest possible material in this world"says Novosclov.iJe calls it a “wonder material".It’s so thin that you would need to stack about 25,000 sheets just to make a pile as thick as a piece of' ordinary white paper. If you were to hold a sheet of graphene in your fingers,you'ci have no idea because you wouldn't be able to see it.Carbon is one of the most abundant elements in the universe.Every known kind of life contains carbon. Graphene is a sheet of earboti,but only one atom thick.You don't have to look far to find graphene一it's all around you.If you want this high-tech wonder stuff,all you need is a pencil,paper and a little adhesive tape.Use the pencil to shade a small area on the paper,and then apply a small piece of adhesive tape over the area. When you pull up the tape,you'll see that it pulls up a thin layer of some of the shading from your pencil. That layer is called graphite,one of the softest mninerals in the world.Now stick the same piece of tape on another sheet of paper and pull the tape up一there should be an even thinner layer,this time left on the paper. Now imagine that you do this over and over,until you get the thinnest possible layer of material on the paper. This layer would he only one atom thick,and you wouldn't be able to see it. Graphite is made of layers of graphene.So when you get to the thinnest possible layer, you've found graphene.The word "apply" in Paragraph 4 could be replaced by________.A:pushB:findC:collectD:put

考题 问答题Practice 6  Fiber-optic lines will form most of the backbone of the information highway, just as they do for the phone system today. Fiber-optic cable is made of long, thin strands of glass rather than wire, and it transmits information in the form of digitized pulses of laser light rather than the radio waves used by coaxial cable. Because light pulses have shorter wavelengths than radio waves, engineers can cram much more data into fiber-optic lines than into other kinds of cables and wires. A single fiber, for example, can handle a mind-boggling 5,000 video signals or more than 500,000 voice conversations simultaneously. This huge capacity allows it to transmit all signals digitally. So noise or static easily can be filtered out. Finally, because glass is an inherently more efficient medium for transmitting information than other materials, a fiber-optic line can transmit a signal thousands of miles without much “signal loss”. Fiber-optic cable, simply put, is the method of choice for transmitting massive quantities of information over long distances.  Another key is “digital compression”—a variety of methods for reducing the amount of digital code (streams of ones and zeros) needed to represent a piece of information—whether it is a document, a still picture, a movie or a sound. Digital compression is most critical for transmitting video, because digitized video consumes enormous amounts of space. Just four seconds of a digitized film, for example, would completely fill a 100-megabyte hard drive. A feature film of typical length, if uncompressed, would occupy more than 350 ordinary compact discs.  Compression techniques achieve their gins by recording only the changes from one frame to the next, The background image in a movie scene, for example, typically does not change much from one flame to another. In a digital compression scheme, the background would be recorded only once; after that, only the actors’ movements would be captured.  One result is more choices—hundreds of channels coming through your cable TV line instead of dozens. Digital compression also makes it easier to piggyback data onto media that were not designed with data in mind: in particular, phone lines.
