But Australian researchers have found a way to make something like this possible!A team at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, found a way to put special nanostructures (纳米结构) into clothing, which can then clean the clothes. When sunlight hits the nanostructures, they break down the dirt and stains (污渍) that dont belong on your clothes.The nanostructures dont break down the actual clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to be broken down. According to CNN, the researchers cover the clothing in a solution made of silver and copper (铜) nanostructures. All it takes is 40 minutes of sunlight and your clothes will look as good as new.So if you spill on yourself during lunch, you can step outside for a walk, and it will be clean by the time you go inside. It not only makes your life easier, but it can also be good for the environment. According to the US Department of Energy, the average load of laundry uses about 25 gallons (about 94 liters) of water. Water is a very important resource, so using less of it to wash clothes is better for the environment. But one of the scientists at RMIT University knows more needs to be done. “Theres more work to do before we can start throwing out our washing machines,” said Dr Rajesh Ramanathan, “but this is a strong foundation (基础).”So whats the next step? Ramanathan wants to either start selling the solution by itself or convincing (说服) clothing makers to treat the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made.26 . How do the clothing with the nanostructures get cleaned?ACotton clothes wash easilyBThis kind of clothing washes it by itself.CThe dirt and stains are broken down in the sunlight.DSilver and copper help to get off the dirt in the dark.27 . What do Paragraphs 4-5 talk about?AWhat advantages the self-cleaning clothes have.BHow the self-cleaning clothes work.CHow the self-cleaning clothes are made.DWhat helps the self-cleaning clothes work.28 . What does the underlined word “solution”in the last paragraph mean?AMachinesBClothes.CSilver.DDesign.29 . What can we learn from the passage?ASilver and copper sell well.BThe solution is not put into practice.CClothing makes certainly like the solution.DWe dont need washing machines any more.The worlds most popular musical, The Sound of Music is coming to China!Presented by Lunchbox Theatrical Production, we are looking for talented young performers to play the roles of the von Trapp children.

The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have peoples names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computerBig data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.33 .

Thats why its called a rain forest! More than 100 inches of rain fall there each year. In contrast, Los Angeles, California, gets only about 15 inches of rain per year.Rain Forest Plants and AnimalsA rain forest has hundreds of kinds of trees and flowers. Under your feet is a carpet of leaves.Moisture (水气) is dripping everywhere. Hardly any light reaches the ground because tall trees form a canopy (树冠), or upper layer, high above. It hides the sky and provides shade.A rain forest is noisy! Bird squawk. Thousands of insects buzz and hum. Monkeys chatter in the trees. Beetles grow as big as your hand. Some frogs grow as big as a milk carton!Why Are Rain Forest in Trouble?Rain forests are very important to life on Earth. They recycle. Tree roots use dead plants as food. Rain turns into clouds that make more rain. Trees take in carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) and gives off the air we breathe.Yet rain forests are in trouble. People cut down trees to get wood and land to farm. Most trees are not replaced. Many scientists think this may be a cause of global warming. Loggers also may leave rubbish behind. This is a kind of pollution.The balance of life in a rain forest is complicated (复杂的). Plants and animals depend on one another. If one dies out, others do, too.The Childrens Rain ForestChildren in a Swedish school were studying rain forests. They learned that rain forests were in trouble. The class stated a project to save a rain forest in Costa Rica. The class bought about 15 acres of land. They paid 525 per acre. The students hoped that the land they bought would be protected and not destroyed.The students became so interested in rain forests that they decided to get a closer look at areal river. They saw alligators (短吻鳄) crocodiles. A guide took
