Question

"It looks just like a table mat，and is as light as a magazine．But you can download hundreds of newspapers at the touch of a button，and read them quite safely，"the BBC reported on its website．
     The plastic paper is produced in a safe"clean room"at the Plastic Logic factory，which opened last month as the world's first plastic-electronics factory．Every part of the product，from the screen to the electronics，is made of plastic．And it is described by engineer Dean Baker as"top quality"，as it could help solve the problem of waste associated with traditional newspapers．

Answer 1

分析 本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了英國劍橋大學的一些科學家們研制的一種新型的電子報紙．這種報紙是由塑料制成的，像雜志一樣輕，可以下載很多報紙，而且能夠很安全地進行閱讀．

解答 33．B 細節(jié)理解題  根據第二段最后一句And it is described by engineer Dean Baker as"top quality"，as it could help solve the problem of waste associated with traditional newspapers．可知，Dean Baker稱之為"top quality"是因為它可以很好地解決傳統(tǒng)報紙的污染問題，故答案為B
34．D 推理判斷題．文章最后兩段All of the copies could be made electronically and stored on a single e-reader with the ap pearance of paper介紹了普通的紙質報紙不僅需要全國發(fā)送，而且閱讀完后就扔掉了，而電子報紙則避免了這種情況，由此判斷選D．
35．A  推理判斷題．文章主要介紹了即將問世的電子報紙的一些好處，從文中使用的一些詞：expect，save，clean，safe等詞判斷作者對此是很樂觀，是積極的態(tài)度，選A．
