door and a cloak of invisibility(隐身衣)are three innovative inventions recently created by college students.Here comes the sun2The 100kilogram blue solar car invented by 10 students at Southwest Universitys College of Engineering and Technology in Chongqing has a top with four solar panels that charge the battery that powers the auto.Its speed is between 3040 kilometers per hour and when fully powered the car can be driven as far as 50 kilometers.3“The car is easy to drive.A person without any driving experiences could learn to use it in several minutes.It fits for campus and the golf course，” He Daijie，the leader of the invention team and a senior at the college，told the Global Times.Or if one prefers it can be turned into moped scooter(电动助力车)，he said.Seeing the light4Four students at Shenyang University of Technology in Liaoning Province invented a door light powered by electric energy produced by opening and closing a door.5The invention won first prize at the First Low Carbon Environmental Creative Competition for College Students(in Liaoning competition area)held recently by the China Environmental Protection Foundation.The students were given 100,000 yuan($15,030)to help them start a business.6When people open or close a door，the door produces mechanical energy that could be turned into electric energy.After numerous tests for several months，the students fixed a joint lever(连接杆)above the door that connects the door and a speeding gear case to drive a generator attached to the door and send energy to storage cells.The storage cells provide _ for the light.7A college students dorm door is opened and closed about 60100 times a day，which could produce 160280 milliamps of electric energy.It takes 160 milliamps to keep a light working for at least 10 hours，said Xia Yingbiao，one of the invention team members and a mechanical design and manufacturing and automation junior.8“The door light will be mainly used in exits and in buildings such as hospitals and restaurants，” Xia told the Global Times.9If lightemitting diode(LED)lights(安全口指示灯)were used with the invention at all entrances in Shenyang schools，about 700,000 kilowatt hours a year would be saved，the team said.The university is applying patents for the invention.Invisibility cloak10Many people daydream of an invisibility cloak like Harry Potters and three graduate students in optics(光学)from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics(航空航天)have actually invented one.11Special Ferroelectric(铁电体)materials on the cloak reduce the scattering of light of an object wrapped with the cloak，and thus making the object “invisible”，according to Li Peining，one of the three students.12“There are many invisibility cloaks based on various theories，but their light frequencies are different because there are some limitations on the frequencies.Our cloak can control all kinds of light frequencies by adjusting them，making the cloak more widely used，” said Li Peining.13Li said he is confident about the future of the cloak.“With the appearance and application of new metamaterials，the cloak could be used in military battles and communications，” he said.1In which fields are invisibility cloaks used？(no more than 10 words)_2Fill in the blank in Paragraph 6 with proper words.(no more than 5 words)_3Which invention do you think is environmentally friendly？Why？(no more than
