A new electronic bandage(绷带) uses flashes of light to kill bacteria. No antibiotics(抗生素) needed.
The bandage has small LED bulbs that produce a type of high-energy light called ultraviolet C (UVC) when it is put into use. UVC light is often used by doctors and dentists to sterilize(消毒)medical equipment. However, using UVC to sterilize wounds has been a challenge because it requires a source of energy. Typically, these bandages needed heavy batteries, but the new bandage is powered by wireless technology, without the need for heavy batteries.This allows the bandage to be more comfortable and flexible to wear and results in fewer used batteries in the trash can.
The electricity for the bandage comes from a “powering coil(圈)”, which is a piece of fabric with copper wires in it. It is similar to how electric toothbrushes get their energy when placed in their charging cradles(充电座), according to Stephen Beeby, who led the team that created the bandage.
While the team didn't invent wireless power or light-emitting bandages, they are the first to combine the technologies to create a UV antibacterial system that operates entirely wirelessly, as explained by Mahmoud Wagih,a co-worker of Beeby. The bandage may not look novel from the outside, but inside it contains a flexible strip with tiny LED lights that emit the UV light. When applied, the bandage periodically flashes UV light onto the wound's surface to effectively remove hidden bacteria.
Amirhossein Hajiaghajani, a wireless power researcher, sees potential and prospect in this bandage but notes some challenges for its widespread use. The bandage needs to be within a certain range of its wireless energy source, the powering coil, which is currently about 20 to 30 centimeters.Hajiaghajani believes that this range is limited and suggests that expanding it will be a key and critical focus for future development.
1.What does the new electronic bandage do to sterilize wounds
A.Give off heat. B.Apply antibiotics.
C.Produce UVC light. D.Rely on heavy batteries.
2.How is the source of electricity explained in Paragraph 3
A.By giving an example. B.By drawing a comparison.
C.By providing an argument. D.By describing a process.
3.What is a unique achievement of Beeby and his team
A.Inventing wireless power. B.Creating light-emitting bandages.
C.Making a bandage novel both inside and outside. D.Pioneering a wireless antibacterial bandage.
4.What does Hajiaghajani say about the widespread use of the bandage
A.It faces a challenge. B.It proves beneficial.
C.It is a fantasy. D.It raises deep concerns.

You are just waking up in the spring of 2030.Your Internet of Things bedroom opens solar-powered e-windows and plays soft music while your smart lighting displays a montage(剪辑组合作品) of a beachfront sunrise from your recent vacation.
Your shower uses very little water or soap. It recycles your grey water and puts the extra heat back into your home's operating system. While you dress, your artificial intelligence (AI) assistant shares your schedule for the day and plays your favorite tunes.
You still start your day with a coffee but it comes from your refrigerator which is capable of providing a coffee house experience in your home. A hot breakfast tailored to your specific nutritional needs (based on chemical analysis from your trips to the “smart toilet”) is waiting for you in the kitchen.
When it's time to leave, an on-demand transport system has three cars waiting for you, your wife (or husband)and your kids. On the road, driverless cars and trucks move with mathematical accuracy, without traffic jams, routine maintenance or road rage. Accident rates are near zero.
On the way, you call your R& D team, who are taking on a day's work in Shanghai. Your life-sized image is projected (投射)onto the screen of the China Innovation Centre and your colleagues see you as if you were sitting in the room. It's a bit surreal (离奇的)for them to see you in the morning light given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront, though the novelty disappears after using it a few times.
You review the day's cloud-based data from your Shenzhen manufacturing center, your pilot project in San Diego, and your QA team in Melbourne. Large quantities of data sets collected in real time from every piece of equipment have been beautifully summarized by your company's AI. All these facilities are closely maintained and operated through an advanced predictive analytics platform.
Pleased with the team's progress, you end the call and ease into a good book.
This is the future and it will be here sooner than you think.
5.How can we describe the life in the future
A.Artificial. B.Accurate. C.Remarkable. D.Intelligent.
6.What can we do in the year 2030 according to the passage
A.We can have a bath without using water.
B.We can drive to work without worrying about any accidents.
C.We can enjoy the coffee house experience without going there.
D.We can deal with all our work at home without turning to others for help.
7.How does the author develop the passage
A.In time order. B.In logical order.
C.By drawing a comparison. D.By offering examples.
8.What's the purpose of writing the passage
A.To attract us to the use of the AI system.
B.To introduce the life in the future.
C.To teach us how to use the AI system.
D.To encourage us to study hard for the future.

7.innovation;efficiency 考查名词。第一空作主句的主语,且根据空前的形容词technical可知设空处应填名词,故填innovation;第二空作动词increase的宾语,故应用名词efficiency。句意:这项技术革新是这位教授提出来的,它将节省我们大量的时间并且提高我们的效率。

9.be detected 考查被动语态。分析句子成分可知,may 在句中充当谓语,cancer和detect之间是被动关系,设空处前有情态动词may,所以此处应填be detected。句意:如今,癌症可能很快就会在早期被发现。
10.will be doing 考查将来进行时。句意:我今晚八点不能看电视上的音乐会了,因为那个时候我将正在做家庭作业。由句意及时间状语at that time可知此处表示将来某一个时间点正在进行的动作,故用将来进行时。

能力提升练
Ⅰ.1.security 考查名词。根据空前的形容词性物主代词our可知设空处应用名词作ensure的宾语;secure的名词security意为“安全”时为不可数名词,故填security。句意:在不久的将来,我们将生活在智能家居中,这将确保我们的安全,节约能源,并提供更舒适的居住环境。
2.using 考查动名词。句意:在智能家居中,每天使用先进的技术对一切事物进行自动控制将是很常见的。分析句子结构可知,设空处需填入非谓语动词作主语,根据句意可知,这里表示一般性的动作,因而用动名词形式。故填using。
3.itself 考查代词。句意:我们的未来家居将使用集成传感器来判断我们什么时候离开家,然后全自动地进入节能模式。(all) by itself表示“(完全)自动,无人操作”。故填itself。

8.starts 考查时态和主谓一致。句意:例如,如果水管开始泄漏,我们的智能家居将会检测到它。分析句子结构可知本句中if引导条件状语从句,此处应遵循“主将从现”原则,主句为一般将来时,从句应用一般现在时;从句主语为a water pipe,为第三人称单数,从句谓语也应用第三人称单数形式。故填starts。
9.a 考查冠词。句意:这种智能技术不再是白日梦或幻想。设空处为泛指,因而用不定冠词;daydream为可数名词且以辅音音素开头,故填a。
10.before 考查连词。句意:然而,还需要几年的时间大多数新住宅才能开始使用这项新技术。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导状语从句,此处使用的是固定句型“It will take+一段时间+before...”,表示“需要多长时间才……”。故填before。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章号召大家多思考一下未来的自己并阐述了这样做的好处。
1.to imagine 考查不定式。句意:花点时间想象一下十年后的自己。本句为祈使句,设空处应为非谓语动词,表目的,应用不定式,故填to imagine。
2.extremely 考查副词。设空处作状语修饰形容词close,应用副词,故填extremely。句意:有些人对未来的自我有一种生动的感觉,给人的感觉是这(未来的自我)与他们现在的身份非常接近。

4.that/which 考查定语从句。设空处前面为名词way,后面为谓语部分,根据语境可知前面的way是后面will make life easier的主语,所以设空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰名词way,关系词在从句中作主语,故填关系代词that或者which。
5.relevance 考查名词。根据空格前的动词has和修饰词little可知设空处为不可数名词,故填relevance,表示“相关性”。have little relevance to意为“与……几乎没有相关性”。句意:其他许多人把未来的自己看作是一个独立的人,与现在的身份没有什么关系,因此,他们对自己行为的长期后果的担忧要少得多。
6.as 考查介词。as a consequence意为“因此”,故填as。
7.be paid 考查被动语态。句意:你几乎可以把未来的自己想象成一段应该付出巨大努力来发展的关系。分析句子结构可知,should 7 为that引导的定语从句中的谓语部分,主语that指代先行词relationship,和pay之间为被动关系,故用被动语态,设空处前面有情态动词should,故填be paid。
8.financial 考查形容词。设空处作定语修饰名词security,应用形容词,故填financial。
9.a 考查冠词。句意:你可以考虑一个简单的有创意的活动——写一封来自未来的信。设空处修饰名词letter,表泛指,应用不定冠词,并且letter的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a。
10.preparing 考查现在分词。句意:这鼓励人们感受与未来的自己更紧密的联系,从而为积极的行为改变做好准备。thus前面已经出现了谓语,且本句逗号前后没有连词,所以设空处为非谓语动词,prepare的逻辑主语为people,二者之间是主动关系,应用现在分词作状语,故填preparing。
【高频词汇】 1.circumstance n.条件,环境 2.close adj.酷似的,几乎相等的 3.vivid adj.生动的 4.be responsible for对……负责任 5.be keen to do sth.渴望做某事

3.D 细节理解题。根据题干中的Beeby可以定位到第四段,根据该段中的“While the team didn't invent wireless power or light-emitting bandages, they are the first to combine the technologies to create a UV antibacterial system that operates entirely wirelessly”可知,该研究团队是首个把无线充电和发光绷带技术结合的团队,即他们开发了无线抗菌绷带。故选D。
4.A 细节理解题。根据题干中的Hajiaghajani定位到最后一段,根据该段中的“notes some challenges for its widespread use”和“Hajiaghajani believes that this range is limited and suggests that expanding it will be a key and critical focus for future development.”可知Hajiaghajani认为该无线电子绷带在一些方面还存在缺陷,因此广泛使用还面临挑战。故选A项。
【高频词汇】 1.bacteria n.[pl.]细菌 2.put...into use把……投入使用 3.challenge n.挑战 4.flexible adj.易弯曲的;灵活的
【熟词生义】 1.power v.驱动 n.电力供应;权力;政权

长难句
原句 It is similar to how electric toothbrushes get their energy when placed in their charging cradles,according to Stephen Beeby, who led the team that created the bandage.
分析 该句是一个主从复合句。how引导介词to后面的宾语从句,when引导时间状语从句,省去了主语they和be动词are;关系代词who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Stephen Beeby;that引导定语从句且在从句中作主语,修饰team。
译文 据发明这种绷带的团队负责人Stephen Beeby介绍,这与电动牙刷放置在充电座上获得能量的方式类似。
B
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,讲述了2030年的生活会是什么样子的。
5.D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Your Internet of Things bedroom opens solar-powered e-windows and plays soft music while your smart lighting displays a montage of a beachfront sunrise from your recent vacation.”和下面每一段的描述可知,未来的生活非常智能,故选D。
6.C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“your refrigerator which is capable of providing a coffee house experience in your home”可知在2030年,冰箱能够在家里提供咖啡馆的体验,所以我们不用去咖啡馆也能享受这种体验。故选C。
7.A 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“You are just waking up in the spring of 2030.”、第二段第一句“Your shower uses very little water or soap.”、第三段第一句中的“You still start your day with a coffee”、第四段第一句中的“When it's time to leave”、第五段第一句中的“On the way, you call your R& D team”和第六段第一句中的“You review the day's cloud-based data”可知,作者是按时间顺序来组织文章的。故选A。
8.B 推理判断题。根据全文,尤其是最后一段“This is the future and it will be here sooner than you think.”可知,作者写这篇文章主要是为了介绍未来的生活。故选B。
【高频词汇】 1.display v.展示;陈列;在屏幕上显示 2.assistant n.助理,助手 3.be capable of有能力
4.nutritional adj.营养的 5.analysis n.分析 6.image n.形象;印象;图像 7.review v.审查;复查;回顾;反思 8.large quantities of大量的 9.summarize v.总结
【差距词汇】 road rage n.公路暴怒
长难句
原句 It's a bit surreal for them to see you in the morning light given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront, though the novelty disappears after using it a few times.
分析 本句中句首的It作形式主语,to see you in the morning light 作真正的主语,given that意为“考虑到,鉴于”,“given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront”为状语从句,though意为“不过”,用于主句后,引出补充说明,使语气变弱。
译文 鉴于外滩——上海的滨水区还是黑的,他们在晨曦中看到你觉得有点离奇,不过用过几次后新鲜劲就消失了。

You are just waking up in the spring of 2030.Your Internet of Things bedroom opens solar-powered e-windows and plays soft music while your smart lighting displays a montage(剪辑组合作品) of a beachfront sunrise from your recent vacation.
Your shower uses very little water or soap. It recycles your grey water and puts the extra heat back into your home's operating system. While you dress, your artificial intelligence (AI) assistant shares your schedule for the day and plays your favorite tunes.
You still start your day with a coffee but it comes from your refrigerator which is capable of providing a coffee house experience in your home. A hot breakfast tailored to your specific nutritional needs (based on chemical analysis from your trips to the “smart toilet”) is waiting for you in the kitchen.
When it's time to leave, an on-demand transport system has three cars waiting for you, your wife (or husband)and your kids. On the road, driverless cars and trucks move with mathematical accuracy, without traffic jams, routine maintenance or road rage. Accident rates are near zero.
On the way, you call your R& D team, who are taking on a day's work in Shanghai. Your life-sized image is projected (投射)onto the screen of the China Innovation Centre and your colleagues see you as if you were sitting in the room. It's a bit surreal (离奇的)for them to see you in the morning light given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront, though the novelty disappears after using it a few times.
You review the day's cloud-based data from your Shenzhen manufacturing center, your pilot project in San Diego, and your QA team in Melbourne. Large quantities of data sets collected in real time from every piece of equipment have been beautifully summarized by your company's AI. All these facilities are closely maintained and operated through an advanced predictive analytics platform.
Pleased with the team's progress, you end the call and ease into a good book.
This is the future and it will be here sooner than you think.

6.critically 考查副词。设空处修饰其后的形容词,所以应用副词,故填critically。critically endangered意为“极度濒危”。句意:根据世界野生动物基金会的数据,全球黑犀牛的数量已经下降到5500头,这使黑犀牛处于“极度濒危”状态。
7.innovation;efficiency 考查名词。第一空作主句的主语,且根据空前的形容词technical可知设空处应填名词,故填innovation;第二空作动词increase的宾语,故应用名词efficiency。句意:这项技术革新是这位教授提出来的,它将节省我们大量的时间并且提高我们的效率。

9.be detected 考查被动语态。分析句子成分可知,may 在句中充当谓语,cancer和detect之间是被动关系,设空处前有情态动词may,所以此处应填be detected。句意:如今,癌症可能很快就会在早期被发现。
10.will be doing 考查将来进行时。句意:我今晚八点不能看电视上的音乐会了,因为那个时候我将正在做家庭作业。由句意及时间状语at that time可知此处表示将来某一个时间点正在进行的动作,故用将来进行时。

2.using 考查动名词。句意:在智能家居中,每天使用先进的技术对一切事物进行自动控制将是很常见的。分析句子结构可知,设空处需填入非谓语动词作主语,根据句意可知,这里表示一般性的动作,因而用动名词形式。故填using。
3.itself 考查代词。句意:我们的未来家居将使用集成传感器来判断我们什么时候离开家,然后全自动地进入节能模式。(all) by itself表示“(完全)自动,无人操作”。故填itself。

8.starts 考查时态和主谓一致。句意:例如,如果水管开始泄漏,我们的智能家居将会检测到它。分析句子结构可知本句中if引导条件状语从句,此处应遵循“主将从现”原则,主句为一般将来时,从句应用一般现在时;从句主语为a water pipe,为第三人称单数,从句谓语也应用第三人称单数形式。故填starts。
9.a 考查冠词。句意:这种智能技术不再是白日梦或幻想。设空处为泛指,因而用不定冠词;daydream为可数名词且以辅音音素开头,故填a。
10.before 考查连词。句意:然而,还需要几年的时间大多数新住宅才能开始使用这项新技术。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导状语从句,此处使用的是固定句型“It will take+一段时间+before...”,表示“需要多长时间才……”。故填before。
Ⅱ.◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章号召大家多思考一下未来的自己并阐述了这样做的好处。
1.to imagine 考查不定式。句意:花点时间想象一下十年后的自己。本句为祈使句,设空处应为非谓语动词,表目的,应用不定式,故填to imagine。

4.that/which 考查定语从句。设空处前面为名词way,后面为谓语部分,根据语境可知前面的way是后面will make life easier的主语,所以设空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰名词way,关系词在从句中作主语,故填关系代词that或者which。
5.relevance 考查名词。根据空格前的动词has和修饰词little可知设空处为不可数名词,故填relevance,表示“相关性”。have little relevance to意为“与……几乎没有相关性”。句意:其他许多人把未来的自己看作是一个独立的人,与现在的身份没有什么关系,因此,他们对自己行为的长期后果的担忧要少得多。
6.as 考查介词。as a consequence意为“因此”,故填as。
7.be paid 考查被动语态。句意:你几乎可以把未来的自己想象成一段应该付出巨大努力来发展的关系。分析句子结构可知,should 7 为that引导的定语从句中的谓语部分,主语that指代先行词relationship,和pay之间为被动关系,故用被动语态,设空处前面有情态动词should,故填be paid。
8.financial 考查形容词。设空处作定语修饰名词security,应用形容词,故填financial。

10.preparing 考查现在分词。句意:这鼓励人们感受与未来的自己更紧密的联系,从而为积极的行为改变做好准备。thus前面已经出现了谓语,且本句逗号前后没有连词,所以设空处为非谓语动词,prepare的逻辑主语为people,二者之间是主动关系,应用现在分词作状语,故填preparing。
【高频词汇】 1.circumstance n.条件,环境 2.close adj.酷似的,几乎相等的 3.vivid adj.生动的 4.be responsible for对……负责任 5.be keen to do sth.渴望做某事

◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款新型无线电子绷带,该产品可以通过UVC为伤口消毒。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“The bandage has small LED bulbs that produce a type of high-energy light called ultraviolet C (UVC) when it is put into use.”可知,这种绷带工作时,它的LED 灯泡会发出一种高能量的光线,即UVC,这种光线可以为伤口消毒。故选C项。
2.B 推理判断题。第三段中“It is similar to how electric toothbrushes get their energy when...”将电动牙刷和新型无线电子绷带的充电原理进行比较,以此来阐明新型无线电子绷带的充电原理。故选B项。
3.D 细节理解题。根据题干中的Beeby可以定位到第四段,根据该段中的“While the team didn't invent wireless power or light-emitting bandages, they are the first to combine the technologies to create a UV antibacterial system that operates entirely wirelessly”可知,该研究团队是首个把无线充电和发光绷带技术结合的团队,即他们开发了无线抗菌绷带。故选D。
4.A 细节理解题。根据题干中的Hajiaghajani定位到最后一段,根据该段中的“notes some challenges for its widespread use”和“Hajiaghajani believes that this range is limited and suggests that expanding it will be a key and critical focus for future development.”可知Hajiaghajani认为该无线电子绷带在一些方面还存在缺陷,因此广泛使用还面临挑战。故选A项。

长难句
原句 It is similar to how electric toothbrushes get their energy when placed in their charging cradles,according to Stephen Beeby, who led the team that created the bandage.
分析 该句是一个主从复合句。how引导介词to后面的宾语从句,when引导时间状语从句,省去了主语they和be动词are;关系代词who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Stephen Beeby;that引导定语从句且在从句中作主语,修饰team。
译文 据发明这种绷带的团队负责人Stephen Beeby介绍,这与电动牙刷放置在充电座上获得能量的方式类似。
B
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文,讲述了2030年的生活会是什么样子的。

6.C 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“your refrigerator which is capable of providing a coffee house experience in your home”可知在2030年,冰箱能够在家里提供咖啡馆的体验,所以我们不用去咖啡馆也能享受这种体验。故选C。
7.A 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“You are just waking up in the spring of 2030.”、第二段第一句“Your shower uses very little water or soap.”、第三段第一句中的“You still start your day with a coffee”、第四段第一句中的“When it's time to leave”、第五段第一句中的“On the way, you call your R& D team”和第六段第一句中的“You review the day's cloud-based data”可知,作者是按时间顺序来组织文章的。故选A。
8.B 推理判断题。根据全文,尤其是最后一段“This is the future and it will be here sooner than you think.”可知,作者写这篇文章主要是为了介绍未来的生活。故选B。

长难句
原句 It's a bit surreal for them to see you in the morning light given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront, though the novelty disappears after using it a few times.
分析 本句中句首的It作形式主语,to see you in the morning light 作真正的主语,given that意为“考虑到,鉴于”,“given that it's dark on the Bund, Shanghai's waterfront”为状语从句,though意为“不过”,用于主句后,引出补充说明,使语气变弱。
译文 鉴于外滩——上海的滨水区还是黑的,他们在晨曦中看到你觉得有点离奇,不过用过几次后新鲜劲就消失了。
