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 marks that dont belong on your clothes.The nanostructures dont break down the real clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to break down. According to CNN, the researchers cover the clothing in asolutionmade 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, washing a piece of clothing uses about 25 gallons 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 asking clothing makers to treat(处理) the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made.31 . According to the first three paragraphs, _.Athe self-cleaning clothes are easily worn outBthe clothes will be covered with silver and copper after self-cleaningCpeople can use the self-cleaning clothes on rainy daysDthe nanostructures can break down dirt and marks on clothes32 .

What do Paragraphs 4 & 5 talk about?AHow the self-cleaning clothes are made.BHow the self-cleaning clothes work.CWhat advantages the self-cleaning clothes have.DWhat helps the self-cleaning clothes work.34 . From the passage, we learn that _.Aits time to throw out our washing machinesBthe solution sells wellCclothing makers like the solutionDthe solution is not on sale yet35 . We might read the above passage in _.Aa fashion bookBa guide bookCa science magazineDa newspaper advertisement.五、阅读单选Is there an important exam right around the comer?
