Yet they are stronger than steel. In fact, some spiders' webs are among the world's strongest materials, but they can be pulled longer than elastic( 橡 皮 筋 ) . They can also be any shape. Spider webs are amazing. A spider has hundreds of small openings in its body. Silk comes out of these openings as a liquid, and, as it r _71 _ the air, it becomes thread-like. These tiny threads( 线 )come together to form a single thread. The spider can make many different kinds of thread( 线 ) . The thread can be thick or thin, wet or dry, or sticky. Each kind has a different p _ 72 _ . Some webs create an egg box. Others provide hiding places. The most common, however, is to catch food. There are many ways the spider uses its web to catch food. For example, some spiders produce a single thread. An insect then sits on it without realizing what it is doing, and becomes s _73 _ . Slowly, the spider moves towards the insect. Suddenly, it covers its food in silk. Some spiders use a different kind of t _74 _ , They make webs that cheat insects. An insect sees the web and thinks it's a flower. It then lands on the web. The spider can feel even the smallest m _ 75 _ of the web, and rushes at the insect before it can get away. Spider webs are so amazing that engineers have been studying them for years. They want to learn why they are so strong and elastic. However, for the moment, spiders are k_76_ their secrets. Although they have made great progress in science and technology, humans still haven't been able to c_77 _ natural webs. D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)(12分) When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone?Can you imagine yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone from time to time? As a busy modern person with lets of social connections, plans and responsibilities, I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome(恼人的). One day I discovered I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications( 通 知 )off. But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before. So, I simply stopped using my phone. Well, to tell the truth, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days, I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me. When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted(分心的)with, and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me. However, after three weeks without a mobile phone, I started noticing changes -changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits. First of all, I noticed that I became much more focused. Before, while doing something, I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone, I found that the desire was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved. I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly:take a photo, post it, and get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through likes or shares. Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was worth it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible. 78.
