One solution to this problem is to put the drugs inside a capsule, protecting them from the bodyand the body from themuntil they ca
21、n be released at just the right spot. There are lots of ways to trigger(引发 ) this release, including changing temperature, acidity, and so on. But triggers can come with their own risksburns, for example. Now, researchers in California have designed what could be a harmless trigger to date: shining
22、near-infrared light (NIR,近红外线 ) on the drug in the capsule. The idea of using light to liberate the drug in the capsule isnt new. Researchers around the globe have developed polymers (聚合物 ) and other materials that begin to break down when they absorb either ultraviolet (UV,紫外线 ) or visible light. B
23、ut tissues also readily absorb UV and visible light, which means the drug release can be triggered only near the skin, where the light can reach the capsule. NIR light largely passes through tissues, so researchers have tried to use it as a trigger. But few compounds(化合物 ) absorb NIR well and go thr
24、ough chemical changes. That changed last year when Adah Almutairi, a chemist at the University of California, San Diego, reported that she and her colleagues had designed a polymer that breaks down when it absorbs NIR light. Their polymer used a commercially available NIR-absorbing group called o-ni
25、trobenzyl (ONB). When they catch the light, ONB groups fall off the polymer, leading to its breakdown. But ONB is only a so-so NIR absorber, and it could be poisonous to cells when it separates from the polymer. So Almutairi and her colleagues reported creating a new material for capsules thats even
26、 better. This one consists of a long chain of compounds called cresol groups linked in a polymer. Cresol contains reactive(易反应的 ) components that make it highly unstable in its polymeric form, a feature Almutairi and her colleagues use to their advantage. After polymerizing the cresols, they cap eac
27、h reactive component with a light-absorbing compound called Bhc. When the Bhcs absorb NIR light, the reactive groups are exposed and break the long polymer into two short chains. Shining additional light continues this breakdown, potentially releasing any drugs in the capsule. Whats more, Almutairi
28、says, Bhc is 10 times better at absorbing NIR than is ONB and is not poisonous to cells. 【小题 1】 According to the passage, which of the following could be the best trigger A Temperature change. B NIR light. C Acidity change. D UV light. 【小题 2】 Why in ONB unsatisfactory A It breaks down when it absorb
29、s NIR light. B It falls off the polymer and triggers drug release. C It has not come onto the market up till now. D It is not effective enough and could be poisonous. 【小题 3】 Which word can be used to complete the following process of changes A protected B formed C exposed D combined 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题
30、 2】 D 【小题 3】 C Honey(蜂蜜 )from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar, it is also delicious. Most people, and many animals, like eating it. However, the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees nest(巢 )and take the honey from it. Often, these nests are high up in tre
31、es, and it is difficult to find them. In parts of Africa, though, people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper一 a little bird called a honey guide. The honey guide does not actually like honey, but it does like the wax (蜂蜡 ) in the beehives (蜂房 ). The little bird cannot
32、reach this wax, which is deep inside the bees nest. So, when it finds a suitable nest, it looks for someone to help it. The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people. Once it has their attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time
33、 for the curious animal or people as it leads them to the nest. When they finally arrive at the nest, the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches. Some of the honey, and the wax, always falls to the ground, and this is when the honey guide takes its
34、share. Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax, but it is very determined in its efforts to get it. The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away. They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives, and will even enter churches
35、when beeswax candles are being lit. 【小题 1】 Why is it difficult to find a wild bees nest A Its small in size. B Its hidden in trees. C Its covered with wax. D Its hard to recognize. 【小题 2】 What do the words the follower in Paragraph 2 refer to A A bee. B A bird. C A honey seeker. D A beekeeper. 【小题 3
36、】 The honey guide is special in the way_. A it gets its food B it goes to church C it sings in the forest D it reaches into bees nests 【小题 4】 What can be the best title for the text A Wild Bees B Wax and Honey C Beekeeping in Africa D Honey-Lovers Helper 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 C 【小题 3】 A 【小题 4】 D Three
