(23-24高一上·上海·期末)The Pop-up Igloo
Polar bears are warm-blooded animals with heavy fat and fur that can survive in freezing Arctic temperatures. They have two types of fur—the long oily hairs and short thick hairs. By 1 the characteristics of these two hairs and their black skin underneath, the polar bears can keep themselves warm. 2 by polar bears, a team of students from the Royal Danish Academy designed a pop-up igloo(弹出式冰屋)—an emergency tent that might make survival in sub-zero areas much more manageable.
Led by Henry Glogau, the team said that their design aims to 3 those lost or stranded in extreme conditions. With little visibility and no phone coverage, people may face severe 4 while waiting for rescue in cold polar areas. Rather than fight against the extreme conditions, the team looked to use them to its 5 . “Inspired by snow caves and the conventional winter-used tents, we treat snow as a(n) 6 material rather than a burden,” the team told Vigour Times website.
The pop-up igloo adopts a mylar(聚酯薄膜) material, which works 7 to polar bears’ skin. Besides their thick fat and fur, polar bears have black skin underneath, which is ideal for absorbing rays from the Arctic sun to keep themselves warm. The mylar material gives 8 to its inhabitants in the same way by reflecting sunlight into the space inside the tent. The pop-up igloo also features an origami-like(像折纸的) design, which helps to 9 the snow and secure the tent. The origami pockets create areas where snow can 10 on the outside. It prevents heat from escaping from the tent, while holding the tent to the ground. Researchers ensured that the tent could withstand the weight of a 70kg human standing on top to remain 11 in extreme conditions. This adds another 12 layer to everything inside.
The team put the tent through 13 testing for one month in Alaska to see its capability. The results showed that at 11.8 to 15 inches of snow cover, a 37℃ 14 in temperature between inside and outside could be maintained on average. In the future, the pop-up igloos could be 15 along hiking routes in cold areas like the Arctic, where they could be set up in seconds when needed.

(23-24高一上·上海·期末)The Pop-up Igloo
Polar bears are warm-blooded animals with heavy fat and fur that can survive in freezing Arctic temperatures. They have two types of fur—the long oily hairs and short thick hairs. By 1 the characteristics of these two hairs and their black skin underneath, the polar bears can keep themselves warm. 2 by polar bears, a team of students from the Royal Danish Academy designed a pop-up igloo(弹出式冰屋)—an emergency tent that might make survival in sub-zero areas much more manageable.
Led by Henry Glogau, the team said that their design aims to 3 those lost or stranded in extreme conditions. With little visibility and no phone coverage, people may face severe 4 while waiting for rescue in cold polar areas. Rather than fight against the extreme conditions, the team looked to use them to its 5 . “Inspired by snow caves and the conventional winter-used tents, we treat snow as a(n) 6 material rather than a burden,” the team told Vigour Times website.
The pop-up igloo adopts a mylar(聚酯薄膜) material, which works 7 to polar bears’ skin. Besides their thick fat and fur, polar bears have black skin underneath, which is ideal for absorbing rays from the Arctic sun to keep themselves warm. The mylar material gives 8 to its inhabitants in the same way by reflecting sunlight into the space inside the tent. The pop-up igloo also features an origami-like(像折纸的) design, which helps to 9 the snow and secure the tent. The origami pockets create areas where snow can 10 on the outside. It prevents heat from escaping from the tent, while holding the tent to the ground. Researchers ensured that the tent could withstand the weight of a 70kg human standing on top to remain 11 in extreme conditions. This adds another 12 layer to everything inside.
The team put the tent through 13 testing for one month in Alaska to see its capability. The results showed that at 11.8 to 15 inches of snow cover, a 37℃ 14 in temperature between inside and outside could be maintained on average. In the future, the pop-up igloos could be 15 along hiking routes in cold areas like the Arctic, where they could be set up in seconds when needed.

When I’m drawing 3 , eighty minutes feels like eight minutes. One moment I am taking out my art materials, the next the teacher is 4 us to hand in our work.
Art is my favorite subject because it can bring 5 responses. For example, if I was happy, I would draw a colorful picture of myself.
I especially enjoy drawing cartoons. This is one area where my 6 is regularly exercised. Sometimes I draw things that amaze my classmates. I also love to draw still life in color. 7 is really an art and I have developed considerable skills in it, much to the disbelief of my classmates. As I have had so much 8 in coloring, I have a huge advantage over the 9 of the class.
