Have you ever had the urge to open a book and stick your nose straight into the pages? The smell of old books can refresh any book lover.We don’t know why,but it is just pleasant to us.
Describing the smell can be a challenge.And mere adjectives will likely be of little use to future generations of historians trying to document,understand or reproduce the scent (气味) of slowly decaying (腐朽) books.Now,that task may have just gotten easier thanks to the Historic Book Odor Wheel.
In one experiment,researchers asked visitors at the historic library to characterize the scents they smelled.All the visitors selected words like “woody”,“smoky” and “earthy” from the list and described the smell’s intensity and perceived pleasantness.In another experiment,the study authors presented visitors to the Birmingham Museum with eight smells—one of which was an unlabeled historic book scent and seven were non-bookish,such as coffee.chocolate,fish market and dirty clothes.The researchers then had those museumgoers describe the historic book smell.The top two responses:Chocolate and coffee.“You tend to use familiar associations to describe smells when they are unlabeled,” study author Cecilia Bembibre says.
The team even analyzed the volatile organic compounds(VOCs)in the book and the library.Using the data from the chemical analysis and visitors’ smell descriptions,the researchers created the Historic Book Odor Wheel to document the “historic library smell”.Main categories such as “sweet/spicy” fill the inner circle of the wheel;descriptors such as “chocolate/cream” fill the middle;and the chemical compounds likely to be the smelly source,like furfural,fill the outer circle.
The researchers want the book odor wheel to be a tool that “untrained noses” can use to identify smells and the compounds causing them,which could address conservators’ concerns about material composition and historic paper conservation.And hopefully,smells of the past can be reproduced in the lab someday and museums and historians can use it to reconstruct a past we can no longer smell.

语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国古建筑的特点和独特的外观等情况。
1.答案:for
解析:考查介词。结合句意表示“因为”应用介词for。故填for。
2.答案:was preferred
解析:考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。根据后文in ancient China可知应用一般过去时,且主语与谓语动词之间是被动关系,故应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语为wood,谓语动词用单数。故填was preferred。
3.答案:traditional
解析:考查形容词。修饰后文名词structures应用形容词traditional,作定语。故填traditional。
4.答案:widely
解析:考查副词。修饰动词praised应用副词widely,表示“广泛地”,wide作副词时表示“宽地”不符合语境。故填widely。
5.答案:shapes
解析:考查名词的单复数。shape为可数名词,由different修饰应用复数。故填shapes。
6.答案:it
解析:考查形式宾语。make后跟it作形式宾语为固定用法,短语make it possible for“使……成为可能”。故填it。
7.答案:who
解析:考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Architects,先行词在从句中作主语,指人,应用关系代词who。故填who。
8.答案:to add
解析:考查非谓语动词。表示“被用来做某事”短语为be used to do sth。故填to add。
9.答案:The
解析:考查冠词。此处特指古建筑的外部,outside前应用定冠词the。句首单词首字母要大写。故填The。
10.答案:designed
解析:考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知design在句中应用非谓语动词形式,与逻辑主语buildings之间是被动关系,故应用过去分词作定语。故填designed。
