江苏省部分市2023-2024学年高三上学期期中英语解析版试卷汇编 七选五 江苏省无锡市2023-2024学年高三上学期期中教学质量调研测试英语试卷 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The world continues to struggle with extreme heatwaves, which are becoming even more regular thanks to climate change. ____16____ Researchers have found that by wearing appropriate clothes, it is possible to save considerable energy, both saving money and cutting greenhouse gas emissions. So what should you wear? When it comes to colour, most people wear white in summer, because white reflects the sun’s rays, rather than absorb the light. ____17____ When that heat from our bodies hits the white clothing, it is reflected back at us. A study of why Bedouins, who live in desert regions in the Arabian peninsula, Middle East and North Africa wear black robes (袍服) in the desert, found that heat exposure was the same whether they wore black or white robes. How is that possible? Black coloured fabrics absorb heat coming from the body, which plays a role in cooling your body down. ____18____ The clothes heat up the space between the fabric and the skin, promoting an upward air current-like a chimney-and providing cooling relief. ____19____ In terms of material, it’s better to have fabrics that allow water vapour (蒸气) to pass through Cotton absorbs moisture but it doesn’t dry quickly, so if you’re sweating a lot your clothes will stay wet. ____20____ Linen is widely worn as it has excellent breath ability due to its large fibres, but like cotton it is slow to dry. Merino wool has been a popular choice for outdoor enthusiasts as it’s breathable. Therefore, it turns out that picking an outfit to stay cool is more complex than simply throwing on a white T-shirt. But the right fabric and appropriate fit work. A. It means cotton does not do so great with this. B. Cotton is considered as the most comfortable material. C. The clothing we wear is a vital component in how we stay cool. D. So the fit of the clothing is actually more important
