30、将 该 项 涂 黑 AYouve probably heard people expressing alarm about the spread of fake news stories that look like news articles but describe things that never happened. Fake news is written to attract attention, to trick people so they will look foolish, or to work as satire ( 讽 刺 ) making a point about

31、society. But regardless of the sources motivation, spreading fake news embarrasses you and harms others, so follow these steps to ensure you only share real news.Check its grammarLegal news sites check their grammar carefully, so articles with many errors are usually fake. Also watch out for sentenc

32、es written in all capital（ 大 写 的 ） letters and the use of multiple exclamation points（感 叹 号 ）at the ends of sentences. These are designed to bring about an emotional reaction, but they arent considered professional, so trustworthy publications dont usethem.Read the whole articleEven in real news art

33、icles, headlines sometimes overstate or simplify the point of the article. Before reacting, read the article carefully to make sure you understand the whole context. Sometimes the claims of fake news articles become unreasonable as the article goes on.Consider the sourceIf youve never heard of the p

34、ublication, check the About section on its website. Fake news sites often lack such a page, provide little information or even admit that they are fake. Also check an online articles URL; if it ends with .com.co, its probably a fake news site.Check the supportDoes the article support its claims with

35、 quotations and citations 引 用 ）from experts? If not,dont trust it. If so, you should still look up those sources and make sure they actually say what the article claims. There are also websites, such as , that will tell you whether the facts in online articles are accurate.56. What do we know about

36、legal news sites?A. They make grammatical mistakes.B. They apply overstated headlines.C. They fail to quote from experts.D. They use some exclamation marks at one place.- 6 -57.

Boston Tribune whose About section is missing.BMetal-organic frameworks(MOFs) are compounds that are set to solve some tough challenges: producing water in the desert, removing greenhouse gases from the air and storing dangerous gases more safely.The Ariz

38、ona desert is really dry. Anyone stuck in it without water would die from dehydration （ 脱 水 ） within three days. Unless, that is, they had one of Omar Yaghis next-generation water harvesters. Although daytime humidity（湿度） is only about 10 per cent, this rises to 40 per cent at night, which means the

39、res enough water in the atmosphere to support life if it can be transformed into liquid form.Thats exactly what Yaghis device does. Its a box about the size of a small microwave oven designed to suck the humidity from the air at night and turn it into drinking water the next day using only the heat

40、of the sun as its power source. What makes it work is a special material called a metal-organic framework (MOF), which at normal temperatures attracts water molecules (分子 ) onto its surface of its internal pores（细 孔 ） . Warm it up and the water is released, each harvest producing one-third of a cup

41、of pure drinking water. With further improvements, a device, the size of a washing machine, could produce enough water for the basic needs of a household, says Yaghi, a chemist at the University of California. One-third of the worlds population lacks safe drinking water; for them such a device could

42、 be a lifesaver.These crystalline cluster（结 晶 群 ） of metals, such as aluminum or magnesium, linked by organic molecules can be made into materials with an extremely high absorption ability, attracting specific molecules to their surface. In this way, MOFs cling to a variety of liquids and gases.MOFs

43、 work thanks to their unique structure-large quantities of nanometer-sized internal spaces. In fact one MOF has so many pores that they would cover an area as large as six football fields. MOFs are also extremely stable light and have many different uses: their molecularstructure can be varied to at

44、tract specific molecules, such as water, and their pores can be designed to best store them. Adding a small amount of heat or pressure causes the MOF to release what it is holding. More than 70,000 different MOFs have been produced to date for various applications.58. Why is the Arizona desert menti

48、emdschmen. Im too proud to ask him what it means. I know that eventually, Ill get it. Still, its slightly painful to realize that after years of living abroad, my mother tongue can sometimes feel foreign.Most long-term migrants know what its like to be a slightly rusty（生疏的） native speaker. The proce

49、ss seems obvious: the longer you are away, the more your language suffers. But its not quite so straightforward.In fact, the science of why, when and how we lose our own language is complex and often different to what we think. It turns out that how long youve been away doesnt always matter. Socializing with other native speakers abroad can worsen your own native skills. And emotional factors like trauma
