21、onder.When the first coronavirus case in the Philippines was confirmed on January 30, the towns response fell to Cortez.

Even when people wear long clothes, mosquitoes complex biting mechanism enables them to bite some of them through.It would be

27、 great if clothing could be used to completely prevent people from getting bitten. Researchers tested graphene(石墨烯), a material that is incredibly thin but really strong, in order to find out if it can make clothing resistant to mosquitoes.In the lab experiment, volunteers exposed a small patch of s

28、kin on their arm or hand to roughly 100 mosquitoes for five minutes at a time. Researchers tested three different situations: volunteers wearing no protection, wearing cheesecloth(薄纱棉布), or wearing cheesecloth plus a thin graphene layer under it.A video camera was then used to record and quantify mo

29、squitoes behavior, including whether they landed on the skin, how long they stayed there, and whether they began to draw blood.

30、at on top of the graphene layer and studied the consequence, and they also tested a slightly different graphene layer called reduced graphene.As a result, the number of mosquito bites on naked skin was the highest, about 16 on average; skin only protected by cheesecloth got the second, approximately

31、 10 per five minutes exposure.

32、out 23 times on average, and stayed for one to two minutes. Comparatively, the mosquitoes landed on skin covered in the graphene layer fewer than 10 times, and the length of their stay was much shorter. Besides, water or sweat can ruin the graphene layer, which allows mosquitoes to bite through it. But fortunately, the number of mosquito bites in either dry or wet condit
