If you send many faxes to the same recipients, you can avoid having to type the fax number each time by adding

23、 fax numbers to your Personal Address Book in Mail.5. You can use the Personal Address Book in Mail to store commonly used fax numbers in addition to commonly used mail addresses. You do not need to include the recipients name when you type a fax address. However, if you have selected the option in

At t

At other times, the natural example has only been recognized well after great amounts of time and valuable materials have been devoted to refining a similar human invention.Birds deserve cr

The wings of birds suggested the pattern for leadingedge wing slots that improve ascent at slow speeds and for conical cambered wingtips that increase lift and stability. Other charact

30、eristics of bird wings, such as a trailing edge flap to aid in smooth landings, were not recognized as important until they had been designed independently by aeronautical engineers. Considerable research effort in aeronautics could probably have been saved by more thorough analysis of bird flight.T

31、he insect world has also contributed significant ideas in the realms of navigation and guidance. In order to aid airline navigation during take-offs and landings under adverse weather conditions, engineers developed a system for locating the sun when it was hidden by clouds through observing polariz

38、篇/BMost of the pioneers of low-temperature physics expected gases to liquefy, but none of them predicted superconductivity. This phenomenon was discovered in 1911 by Onnes while he was studying frozen mercury.More than 40 years passed before physicists were able to offer an explanation for supercond

39、uctivity. The accepted theory, developed in the 1950s, holds that the fundamental behavior of electrons changes at very low temperatures because of the effects of quantum mechanics. Electrons are tiny particles that make up the outer part of an atom, circling rapidly around the nucleus of the atom.

40、In a regular conductora metal that conducts an electric currentthe outermost electrons are not bound tightly to the atoms, and so they move around relatively freely. The flow of these electrons is an electric current.At normal temperatures, a conductors electrons cannot move completely freely throug

41、h the metal because they are “bumped around“ by the metals atoms. But according to the leading theory of superconductivity, when a metal is very cold, electrons form pairs. Then, like couples maneuvering on a crowded dance floor but never colliding, the paired electrons are able to move unimpeded th

42、rough the metal. In pairing up, it seems, the electrons are able to “blend together“ and move in unison without resistance.This explanation seems to account for superconductivity at extremely low temperatures, but in 1986 scientists in Switzerland found that some metal-containing ceramics are superc

43、onductors at much higher temperatures. By 1992, scientists had developed ceramics that become superconducting at - 297F, and some researchers speculated that room-temperature superconductors may be possible. Scientists are still trying to formulate a theory for high-temperature superconductivity.The

44、 new ceramic materials can be maintained at their superconducting temperatures, with relatively inexpensive liquid nitrogen rather than the much colder and much more costly liquid helium required by metal superconductors. The cost difference could make superconductivity practical for many new techno

45、logies. For example, magnetically levitated trains, which require superconducting electromagnets, would be much cheaper to build than they are now. Superconducting devices might also be used for advanced power transmission lines and in new types of compact, ultrafast computers. But for the time bein

46、g, superconductivity is finding application mostly in scientific research and in some kinds of medical imaging devices.（分数：15.00）(1).The flow of an electric current in a regular conductor is made possible by the fact that_.（分数：3.00）A.electrons circle rapidly around the atomB.the outermost electron m
