27、ai said she had been discouraged that the batteries for her wireless devices degrade. Over time, they fail to charge fully.Thai did not like to have keep her wireless laptop connected to an electrical outlet. She decided to do something about that problem.At first, she and her team thought about inv
28、enting a new battery. But as they experimented, Thai discovered something that might permit lithium-ion(锂离子) batteries to last forever. Lithium-ion batteries power most wireless devices. Over time, the batteries lose the ability to hold a charge. Most of these batteries have a life span of about 7,0
29、00 charging cycles before they die.One of the reasons lithium-ion batteries degrade is their use of nanowires(纳米线) to carry electricity. Nanowires are extremely thin. A human hair is thousands of times thicker, for example. Nanowires are extremely efficient carriers of electricity, which makes them
30、useful in batteries. But Thai said their thinness also makes them weak. “Nanowires break over time,“ she said. “Thats why they lose capacity.“But, Thai had a theory: The nanowires might last longer if covered with a material. She and the team tested her theory. The team tried many coverings for the
31、wires. PMMA was one of them. The nanowires were coated with PMMA and cycled through charges 200,000 times. The PMMA coated nanowires showed no evidence of damage. The results suggest that batteries could last forever, without losing charging ability.Thai hopes to continue her research to understand
32、why this material works so well and to see if any other material could create better results.“Its kind of cool,“ she said. “Im really glad people are showing interest in my work and not just in the work itself, but also in technology and energy.“32. What caused Thai to do research on the batteries?A
33、. Weak power of the batteries. B. Her preference for batteries.C. Inconvenient use of batteries. D. Her habit to use her computer.33. Whats the disadvantage of lithium-ion batteries?A.

To protect them from being damaged.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. All Batteries Would Be Replaced By Long-Last
