Disease spread in many ways. An infected person can cough or sneeze on someone nearby, or they can spread germs through a handshake. But sometimes we pick up germs indirectly. A sick person might leave behind bacteria or viruses when they touch a door handle, for example. But what if those surfaces could clean themselves？
Two teenagers from Hong Kong asked themselves the same question. Now they’ve developed a door handle that can kill germs on contact.
The idea is simple：Every time the door is opened, the movement creates power that starts a germ-killing reaction on the handle. In lab tests, their system killed about 99.8 percent of the germs that they spread onto lab dishes covered with their material.
Research by others has shown that door handles in public areas are often home to lots of bacteria and viruses, notes 17-y ear-old Sum Ming（“Simon”） Wong. He and schoolmate Kin Pong （“Michael”） Li,18, wanted to design a covering for door handles that would kill germs.
After doing some research, they learned that a mineral called titanium dioxide is known to kill bacteria. It’s already used in m any products, from paints to desserts. To make their
covering, the teenagers made the mineral into a very fine powder.
Titanium dioxide kills bacteria best when lit by ultraviolet light, says Simon. UV light is found in sunlight. But UV light does not naturally shine on indoor handles or any used at night, so the teenagers light their door handle from within.
To make sure the light reaches the coated surface, the teenagers made their door handle out of clear glass, Each end fits into a bracket （托架）. Inside one of the brackets is a strong light-emitting diode（LED）. From it comes UV light.
And here’s the interesting part：The power that makes the UV light shine comes from opening and closing the door. The power from the door is then carried by wire to the LED inside the door handle.
The door handle system, Michael and Simon say, might cost no more than about $13 （about 81 yuan） to build.
24. The ways diseases spread are mentioned at the beginning of the text to ________.
A. demonstrate how most diseases are spread indirectly
B. remind readers of the importance of cleaning their hands
C. explain how to kill bacteria or viruses effectively
D. help to describe a new invention that prevents diseases from spreading
25. Michael and Simon’s door handle __________.
A. is too expensive for ordinary families
B. is powered by the movement of its users
C. works better at night than in the daytime
D. is made of a metal that can take in UV light
26. The LED is placed inside the brackets to _______.
A. supply enough power to the handle system
B. produce titanium dioxide to kill bacteria
C. provide UV light to help titanium dioxide work better
D. direct the UV light in sunlight to the coated surface
27. What is the author’s attitude toward Michael and Simon’s door handle system？
A. Cautious
B. Critical
C. Enthusiastic
D. Disappointed
C
California Condor’s Shocking Recovery
California condors are North America’s largest birds,
with wing-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical
lines and lead poisoning（铅中毒）nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.
In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico.
Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night, they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution（电死） if they touch two lines at once.
So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.
Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney（肾） failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with。
