12．Car companies are developing vehicles that will plug into electric sockets，just like many laptops，digital cameras，cell phones and Mp4do．Called"plug-in vehicles"，these cars will get most of their power from electricity．Their drivers won't have to stop at gas stations as often as usual．
The technology is more than just cool．In our car-filled world，plug-in vehicles could reduce the amount of gas we use，which keeps rising in cost now and then．Besides，driving around in these vehicles may even help the environment．Gas-burning cars produce a lot of greenhouse gas，which causes globe warming．
The first company-produced plug-in vehicles could hit the roads by 2020．But engineers still have a lot of work to do to make the technology practical and inexpensive．
Batteries（電池） are the biggest challenge．In the plug-in-vehicle world，Li-ion（鋰離子）batteries are getting the most attention．These batteries can store a large amount of energy in a small package，and they last a longer time between charges．Li-ion batteries can fit laptops，cell phones，heart instruments and other similar pocket ones．
But because cars are so big and heavy，it would still require a suitcase-sized Li-ion batteries to power about 12km of driving．What's more，the batteries are much expensive．
"A car filled with batteries could go a long distance，"says Ted Bohn，an electrical engineer in Chicago．"But it couldn't pull any people．a(chǎn)nd it would cost﹩100，000．"
So researchers need to work out how to make batteries smaller and cheaper，among other questions．
"The answers don't exist yet，"Bohn says，"As a kid，I thought someone someplace knows the answer to everything．All of these questions haven't been decided．That's what engineering is about-making a guess，running tests and getting fine results．"

20．The passage mainly talks aboutD  of a new car
A．the developing    
B．the speed    
C．the appearance 
D．the batteries．
21．Which is true according to the passage？B
A．The"plug-in vehicles"will use electricity completely as driving power．
B．The new technology will help protect our environment．
C．The technology of using electricity as driving is quite practical now．
D．The biggest challenge of the new technology is that it will cost us more energy．
22．How does Bohn feel about the future of the technology according to the last paragraph？A
A．Confident    
B．Puzzled．    
C．Worried． 
D．Disappointed．
23．According to the passage，the new technology is facing the following problems except thatC．
A．the new technology cannot come into use at present
B．the cost of the new technology is quite high
C．the government won't support the technology
D． the size of the batteries is too big at present．

9．If you think a high-factor sunscreen （防曬霜） keeps you safe from harmful rays，you may be wrong．Research in this week's Nature shows that while factor 50reduces the number of melanomas （黒瘤） and delays their occurrence，it can't prevent them．Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers．You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair，fair skin，blue or green eyes，or sunburn easily，or if a close relative has had one．Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun．Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure．
There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas---the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer．A 2011Australian study of 1，621people found that people randomly selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed．A second study，comparing 1，167people with melanomas to 1，101who didn't have the cancer，found that using sunscreen routinely，alongside other protection such as hats，long sleeves or staying in the shade，did give some protection．This study said other forms of sun protection---not sunscreen---seemed most beneficial．The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives，so it's not entirely reliable．But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun．
Many people also don't use sunscreen properly---applying insufficient amounts，failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long．It is sunburn that is most worrying---recent research shows five episodes of sunburn in the teenage years increases the risk of all skin cancers．
The good news is that a combination of sunscreen and covering up can reduce melanoma rates，as shown by Australian figures from their slip-slop-slap campaign．So if there is a heat wave this summer，it would be best for us，too，to slip on a shirt，slop on （抹上） sunscreen and slap on a hat．
12．What does the research in Nature say about a high-factor sunscreen？A
A．It is ineffective in preventing melanomas．
B．It is ineffective in case of intense sunlight．
C．It is ineffective with long-term exposure．
D．It is ineffective for people with fair skin．
13．What do we learn from the 2011Australian study of 1，621people？D
A．Sunscreen should be applied alongside other protection measures．
B．High-risk people benefit the most from the application of sunscreen．
C．Irregular application of sunscreen does women more harm than good．
D．Daily application of sunscreen helps reduce the incidence of melanomas．
14．What does the author say about the second Australian study？C
A．It misleads people to rely on sunscreen for protection．
B．It helps people to select the most effective sunscreen．
C．It is not based on direct observation of the subjects．
D．It confirms the results of the first Australian study．
15．What does the author suggest to reduce melanoma rates？A
A．Using both covering up and sunscreen．
B．Staying in the shade whenever possible．
C．Using covering up instead of sunscreen．
D．Applying the right amount of sunscreen．
