We have more water vapor in the atmosphere, which is worsening extreme rainfall and deadly flooding. The warming of the oceans has affected the frequency and area of existence of the most intense tropical storms.”“Economic losses arc increasing as exposure increases.

The battery that has been demonstrated by researchers is biodegradable （可生物降解的）,made from sustainable materials, and cheap to put together. What's more, it can be produced in a variety of shapes and sizes as needed.To give an idea of the power, a two-cell battery was enough to power an LCD alann clock. While it won't be charging up your computer anytime soon, there's lots of potential for low-powered sensors. 44We present a printed paper baiiery developed to power single-use disposable electronics and to reduce their environmental impact to the lowest level,“ write the researchers in their published paper.The battery is based on a metal-air electrochemical cell. Made from sodium chloride salt-diffused （氯化钠盐扩散 的）paper, it can measure as little as one square centimeter, and is based on printed inks. All that's needed, then, is a small amount of water, as little as two drops. This dissolves the salts within the paper, and then activates the battery as they travel. The battery starts producing power around 20 seconds after water is added, according to the experiments can ied out by the team.Although the performance decreases over time as the paper dries out, it can be topped up to some extent with more water. The researchers say they want to improve the efficiency of the battery in the future, and get it working for longer.“With a rising awareness of the e-waste problem and the emergence of single-use electronics for applications, there is a growing need fbr low environmental impact batteries,v write the researchers.32. Which of the following statement about the paper battery is true?A. It is made from single-use materials.B. It is costly to put together.C. It can be produced in diverse shapes.D. It can be used to charge up your computer.33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. How the paper batlery works.B. What the paper battery consists of.C. Why the paper batlery is popular.D. Where the paper battery can be applied.34. What does the underlined phrase “topped up“ in paragraph 4 mean?A. DeclinedB. MaintainedC. IncreasedD. ChangedWhat is the researchers' attitude towards the future of the paper battery?A. IndifferentB. PessimisticC. CautiousD.
