(红杉).”可知，大自然也是作者诗歌的源泉之一，故C项正确。B话题：T恤衫难度：AT-shirtthatconstantlymonitorstheheartsactivityanddetectsabnormalitiescouldhelpprotectpeopleagainststroke.TheT-shirt，whichcanbewashedupto35timesbeforeitneedsreplacing，hasbeendevelopedtoimprovethedetectionofdangerousheartconditionslikeatrialfibrillation(心房颤动)，whichcausesanirregularheartrhythmandraisestheriskofstroke.AtleastonemillionpeopleinBritainareknowntohavethiscondition;
