A
A rainy day can be a chance to recharge. While you relaxed on the sofa with a movie, the raindrops falling on your windows might one day provide the power for your TV. This is the idea behind an invention that harvests energy from water.
The technology is based on the triboelectric (摩擦电的)effect. An engineer at the University of Hawaii, David Ma knew that it’s possible to generate electricity by rubbing two things together. So, he thought, “Why don’t we use water?”
A drop of water sliding across a surface coated with two different materials would generate enough friction to create an electrical charge. By placing metal wires that the drop of water touched as it moved, it should be possible to harvest electricity, he reasoned.
It worked. In fact, the researchers lit up 15 LED bulbs with a single moving water drop.
This is not the first time that scientists have got electricity from water-generated friction( 摩 擦 ). Earlier experiments, though, harvested the charge produced in a surface by a sliding drop of water. There, the surface had acted as an electrode(电极). This is different. The energy of friction is being harvested from the water itself
“It turns out,” Ma says, “the charge in the water drop is way more than the charge produced in the other electrode.” In fact, his team’s model generated almost 100 times more power than previous experiments from a single drop of water.
“The technology could someday power phones, sensors or other small electronics,” says Christopher Oshman, an engineer at the Colorado School of Mines. “This work is a step toward harvesting the energy of moving objects all around us, including ourselves, to power the electronic appliances we use every day,” he says.
Ma has shown that the technology can work in a lab, Oshman says. Next, the Colorado researcher would like to see it tried on a larger scale, such as on an umbrella.
1、How did the author introduce the topic of the text?
A．By telling a story.
B．By raising a question.
C．By giving an example.
D．By imagining a situation.
2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The wire. B．The drop of water.
C．The surface. D．The electricity.
3、What is unique about Ma’s technique compared with earlier experiments?
A．The water itself acts as an electrode.
B．It is based on the triboelectric effect.
C．It produces electricity from water-made friction.
D．It uses a surface coated with two different materials.
4、What does Oshman say about Ma’s technology?
A．It has a promising future.
B．It will do well on an umbrella.
C．It works well in the real world.
D．It will replace batteries someday.

B
Animal lovers have long suspected that playing with pups was good for the soul, and now science has confirmed it – for students in particular.
The results of a new study done by researchers at the University of British Columbia concluded that the college students who spent time at drop-in dog therapy sessions experienced an increase in feelings of wellness and a reduction in overall stress. The study, as reported by Science Daily, indicates that playing with pups is not only popular with the students, it’s also beneficial to their health. This finding was seen across gender（性别）.
The study, which published on March 12 in the journal Stress and Health, involved 246 students who were surveyed before and after they dropped by dog therapy sessions. The young participants were given free access to pet, hug with and talk to seven to 12 therapy dogs. Additionally, they filled out questionnaires right before and right after hanging with the dogs, as well as 10 hours later.
According to researchers, these young adults reported a notable increase in happiness, a significant reduction in stress and a flood of energy right after their sessions with the pups. Although the reported feelings of happiness and satisfaction weren’t long-lasting, researchers say other effects have clear, positive advantages.
“These sessions clearly provide benefits for students in the short-term, so we think universities should try to schedule them during particularly stressful times, such as around exam periods,” Assistant Professor of Psychology at UBC and the study’s senior author, Frances Chen told Science Daily. “Even having therapy dogs around while students are working on their out-of-class assignments could be helpful.”
1、（小题1）What does the new study say about the pups?
A．They are only good for college students.
B．They are only beneficial to the students’ physical health.
C．They can increase happiness and satisfaction.
D．They can create positive feelings that last very long.
2、（小题2）What does the author of study advise universities to do?
A．Allow their students to have therapy dogs to avoid acute stress.

B．Allow their students to have therapy dogs around during each exam.
C．Allow their students to have therapy dogs around during their class.
D．Allow their students to have therapy dogs to achieve good grades.
3、（小题3）What can we infer from Paragraph 2?
A．College students like to play with pups.
B．Dog therapy sessions are popular among college students.
C．People especially college students are under great pressure.
D．Playing with pups benefits males and females mentally.
4、（小题4）What may be the best title for the text?
A．Pups, best friends of humans. B．Pups, therapies for students.
C．Animal lovers and pups D．Pets keeping and the soul
