共享题干题 (三)Electric Backpack根据以下材料，回答问题。 Backpacks are convenient. They can hold your books, your lunch, and a change of clothes leaving your hands free to do other things. Someday, if you don't mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, and maybe even light your way home. Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass. have invented a backpack thatmakes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In military actions search-and-rescue operations and scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cellphones global positioning system (GPS) receivers,night-vision goggles, and other battery powered devices to get around and do their work. The backpack's electricity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearer's load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome and his colleagues in the Sept.9 science. The backpack's electricity-creating powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearer's back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to 7.4 watts. Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack alter their gaits in response to the pack's oscillations, so that they carry loads more comfortably and with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and non-electric versions of the backpack. The backpack could be especially useful for soldiers, scientists, mountaineers, and emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. For the rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, and listen to music, all at the same time. Electricity-generating packs aren't on the market yet, but if you do get one eventually just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street!1.[不定向选择题]The word "'springs" in Paragraph 3 means __________.A.a small stream of water flowing naturally from theearth B.the season of the year, occurring between winter and summer C.the act or an instance of jumping or leaping D.a length of metal woundaround, which returns to its original shape afterbeing pushed 2.[不定向选择题]What is the most important feature of the backpack invented byLawrence C.Romeand his colleagues?A.It produces electricity forelectronic devices while the wearer walks. B.It can be used as cellphones, GPS in the military actions or field studies. C.It is small andconvenient. D.It is light and easy to carry.

1.参考答案：D
参考解析：springs在此意为“弹簧”。spring是一个多义词：A项意为“泉水”，B项意为“春天”，C项意为“弹跳”。
2.参考答案：A
参考解析：第二段的第一句说，Lawrence C．Rome及其同事们发明的这种背包，当背着背包走路时，会有电能产生：该段最后一句告诉我们，背包的这种性能可减少背包的重量，因为不必携带备用电池。3.[不定向选择题]What is implied in "if you do get oneeventually, just make sure to look bothways before crossing the street!"?A.You will be too excited to watch the traffic.
