[2023·太原市模拟]Diners in Japan may sn be able t cut their salt intake withut needing t sacrifice (牺牲) flavr. Researchers recently annunced they develped electric chpsticks that increase saltiness f fds.
C­develped by Meiji University prfessr Hmei Miyashita and drink prducer Kirin Hldings Cmpany, Limited, the chpsticks imprve tastes using electrical stimulatin and a mini­cmputer attached t a wrist. “The device uses a weak electrical current t send sdium ins (钠离子) frm fd, thrugh the chpsticks, t the muth where they create a sense f saltiness，” said Miyashita. “As a result, the salty taste increases by 1.5 times.”
The taste­imprving chpsticks may have particular relevance t the traditinal diet in Japan, which tends t be high in salt. The average Japanese adult eats abut 10 grams f salt each day. That is almst tw times the amunt suggested by the Wrld Health Organizatin. High sdium intake is linked t increased cases f high bld pressure, strkes and ther cnditins. “T prevent these diseases, we need t reduce the amunt f salt we take，” said Kirin researcher Ai Sat. Sat added that if Japanese peple try t reduce salt intake in the usual ways, they will need t cut many f their favrite fds frm their diet. Otherwise, they wuld have t eat flavrless fd.
“I want t verturn the idea that lw salt means n flavr，” Miyashita declared. “The chpsticks make it pssible t keep enjying the fds we lve, and in a healthier way.” He was cnfident that the chpsticks can help peple make better decisins abut their diet and hped t have them ready t sell as early as next year.
Miyashita and his research team have explred different ways that technlgy can interact with human senses. He has als develped a televisin screen that a persn can lick (舔) t taste different fd flavrs. Meanwhile, research is als underway t develp ther eating tls with special functins like electric spns and frks using technlgy.
8．Wh wuld prbably be interested in the electric chpsticks?
A．Thse sticking t a balanced diet.
B．Thse having eating disrders.
C．Thse preferring hmemade fd.
D．Thse wanting t take in less salt.
9．Why is traditinal Japanese diet mentined?
A．T intrduce what Japanese diet is like.
B．T stress hw imprtant chpsticks are fr it.
C．T shw what influence it has n the Japanese.
D．T explain why electric chpsticks are invented.
10．What des Miyashita expect f the electric chpsticks?
A．They'll reach cnsumers in the near future.
B.They'll help change peple's eating habits.
C.They'll be develped int varius versins.
D.They'll inspire a whle new line f research.

[2023·安徽省名校联盟高三质检]Nearly gne are the days when humans cvered themselves with blankets t keep warm, and it's nw the age f cvering glaciers (冰川) with blankets t keep them cl because at the rate climate is changing, this seems like a very wrkable idea t keep them frm melting (融化).
At a ski resrt (度假胜地) in the Swiss Alps, the Swiss use blankets t prtect the glacier frm the warm climate. Gian Darms, wh handles snw cnditins at the ski resrt, intrduced this unique prcedure. The blankets are being used t cver the tp f the 10，623­ft Munt Titlis whse glacier has already melted in the last few decades and it is expected t disappear cmpletely in the next 50 years due t glbal warming.
Facing the great effect f climate change, resrt emplyees have taken it upn themselves t prtect the glacier frm the heat and fr this prcess, they spend abut five t six weeks every summer cvering parts f the glacier with specially prtective wl. This helps t reflect the Sun's energy back int the atmsphere and prevent the glacier frm melting, while als preserving the already fallen snw n the glacier in the previus winter seasn. After the seasn passes, the emplyees remve the cating and fill in the gaps in the glacier's surface with the snw—nw that is sme cmmitment t Mther Nature!
This practice has been ging n fr a while nw and the area f the glacier has increased t almst 100，000 square meters nw. “We've been cvering mre and mre in the last few years. Almst 30，000 square meters mre is cvered this year alne，” said Darms.
The ski resrt's actins shw hw severe the effect f climate change is n glaciers which have been melting at rapid rates in the past few years. Many different resrts have als started fllwing suit t try t prevent them frm melting. Saving an entire glacier is a cmpletely different stry. It is actually cstly and ptentially unfavrable t surrunding ecsystems. As a result, such blankets have nly been applied mstly in an effrt t preserve prfitable ski runs.
12．Hw is the tpic intrduced?
A．By giving an example.
B．By analyzing causes.
C．By describing a prcess.
D．By making a cmparisn.
13．What des the underlined wrd “that” refer t in Paragraph 3?
A．Cating the glacier with special wl.
B．Using cllected snw fr the glacier's penings.
C．Taking actin t slw dwn climate change.
D.Saving the glacier at the ski resrt successfully.
14．What is the authr's attitude twards the future f glbal glaciers?
A．Wrried. B．Oppsed.
C．Indifferent. D．Skeptical.
15．What's the best title fr the text?
A．Blankets Cver an Entire Clacier
B．Glbal Warming Threatens Glaciers
C．Resrt Cls Its Clacier with Blankets
D．Glaciers Enter a Different Age Nw
