A race is on in solar engineering to create almost impossibly-thin,flexible solar panels.Stanford University researchers announced they have achieved record efficiencies in a promising class of new materials—which can be thinner than a piece of paper.
According to the study published in the journal NatureCommunications,it uses a new material called “transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)”.They absorb incredibly high volumes of sunlight that reach their surface compared to other solar materials.
“Imagine an autonomous drone(无人机) that powers itself with a solar panel atop its wing that is less than six micrometers thick,” said Koosha Nassiri Nazif,co-lead author of the study.
Slimming down is necessary because the king of solar materials,silicon,is much too heavy,large and rigid for applications where flexibility,lightweight and high power are important and excellent.
While TMDs hold great promise,research experiments to date have struggled to change more than 2% of the sunlight they absorb into electricity.But the scientists believe they could practically reach 27% efficiency with electrical improvements.That would be comparable with today’s top solar panels,silicon included.
Nazif told Forbes that the new materials are great candidates for next-generation electronics and solar cells.Chipmakers like Intel and the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company are already considering TMDs for their future technology.They could be used in a variety of mobile applications,including self-powered wearable devices and sensors,as well as giving a boost to lightweight airplanes and electric cars.
The ultra-thinness does come with engineering challenges,primarily in mass production.When transferring such a layer of TMD to a flexible,supporting material,the TMD layer is frequently damaged.
But the team thinks it is possible to overcome these challenges.Should they succeed,it could change solar power as we know it.“Silicon makes up 95 percent of the solar market today,” Nazif told Forbes.“This is why we aren’t seeing these applications for solar cells today;TMDs are going to change the landscape.”
1.What is the biggest advantage of TMDs now?
A.They have the quality of remarkable thinness.
B.They can efficiently turn sunlight into energy.
C.They are comparable to top silicon panels.
D.They have excellent ability to reflect sunlight.
2.What does Nazif stress in paragraph 6?
A.The appeal of TMDs to chipmakers.
B.The expectation for future tech.
C.The wide applications of solar energy.
D.The future prospects of TMDs.
3.What can we expect of new solar panels in the future?
A.They could power all mobile devices.
B.They could be a competitive alternative.
C.They will revolutionize the energy market.
D.They will be produced on a large scale soon.
4.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A.Most Efficient Solar Panels Have Hit the Market
B.Stanford Scientists Develop a New Green Material
C.TMDs Could Be Used for Lightweight Solar Panels
D.Challenges Are to Be Overcome to Promote TMDs

(2023原创预测题)
Sometimes the people least likely to engage with Twitter,Meta,Instagram,or Zoom are the people who can benefit from it the most.
The “silent generation”,or those born between 1928 and 1945,aren’t usually mentioned alongside the likes of Twitter,Meta,and Instagram.A study this year said that 45 percent of people over 65 use social media sites.Yet,for the majority of seniors,it is more about gathering information than sharing things about themselves.For example,AARP has pointed out that Meta’s largest function for older folks has been helping them keep in touch with their families,especially their grandchildren.But this doesn’t really reflect the digital connectivity many elders are experiencing.
BJ,a friend who just turned 80,does not own a computer,yet he’s one of the 4 out of 10 seniors with a smartphone,which never leaves his side.For him social media is purely social—no grandkids,just people from every stage of his eight decades.It has kept him youthful and connected.He has figured out how to make Meta and Instagram work for him by asking his younger friends for help when he gets stuck.
Jesse Epstein,who has been teaching in a college for 44 years,moved to Costa Rica with his wife and young child four years ago when he was 70.“I wouldn’t be able to live the life I now lead without the assistance of Zoom,Google Classroom,WhatsApp,and Microsoft Teams,” Epstein tells me on the phone,speaking from his home in Tamarindo.“My current students are all master level schoolteachers.I use Zoom to observe and evaluate how well they incorporate these technologies into their lessons live in the classroom.I was surprised by how much more attentive students seemed to be online than they typically were in the classroom receiving the same material.”
He keeps in touch in a very real way with friends he’s known for decades.“Networking technologies have supported all my life choices and helped me and my family achieve a level of freedom and independence which I didn’t think was possible for someone in their mid-seventies,” he adds.
5.Why are the elderly called the “silent generation”?
A.They hardly share personal experiences online.
B.They are too shy to deliver a speech in public.
C.They never keep in touch with others online.
D.They are unfortunately speech-impaired.
6.Why does the author take BJ as an example?
A.To express good attitudes towards life.
B.To explore possible ways to stay young.
C.To reflect the popularity of Meta.
D.To show the real social connection.
7.Which is not the benefit of networking technologies according to Jesse Epstein?
A.Students are more likely to concentrate on the class.
B.All his life choices are backed by online technologies.
C.He can improve his teaching skills and methods.
D.His family members have freedom and independence.
8.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Social Media Give the Silent Generation a Voice
B.Social Apps Are Welcomed by People of All Ages
C.Networking Technologies Are a Double-edged Sword
D.The Silent Generation Are Eager for Connectivity
