17、th this problem, one port at a time.A pair of surfers from Perth, Australia, has invented a “floating bin” that automatically draws rubbish floating on the water into it like a vacuum (真空) cleaner. While the invention may do little to battle against five giant “garbage islands” that flow around the

18、worlds major ocean gyres (环流), it could stop waste from leaving harbours and marinas, for example. Peter Ceglinski and Andrew Turton said their device could spell the end of polluted seas.The concept is simple: A bucket connects to a water pump, drawing in any floating trash inside a removable net b

19、ag. There is also an optional oil-water separator system inside the pump. It can remove oil from the seawater before spitting it back into the ocean pollution-free through the other side of the pump.The water filtration (过滤) system is much like what youd find in a fish lank, but it has the potential

20、 to clean up an entire ocean. The scabin can run 24/7, according lo its website. And, amazingly, Peter and Andrew say they have never caught a fish or sea animal in their pumps in four years of testing.The Scabin Project aims to improve on the traditional and sometimes expensive harbor cleaning meth

25、k on next seasons flu vaccine (疫苗), with experts working off forecasts about which types of the flu virus will be making the rounds. But dont expect any improvements. Flu experts are already admitting that most vaccines will give at best basic protection, because theyre based on old-fashioned techno

26、logy. Its not a new problem, but one that the slow-moving world of drug and vaccine production seems helpless to improve upon.Every flu vaccine is a cocktail, aimed at either three or four of the most common flu types. Flu vaccines must be reformulated every year, because flu viruses develop constan

27、tly in a process called antigenic drift. In February, global flu experts gather to trade notes on what viruses are circulating in different countries and to come to an agreement on which types the next vaccines should be formulated to target.In recent years, flu vaccines have been based on HINI, H3N

28、2 and either one or two types of influenza B virus. Each of these has a “reference” type, which is used to make seed virus. Producers inject the seed types into eggs and incubate (孵) them as the virus grows. Then they purify the virus, and either weaken it or kill it to make a vaccine.Using eggs is

29、a tricky and unpredictable process. Sometimes the virus doesnt grow well in eggs, which can mean less vaccine than expected. The result is a flu vaccine that doesnt offer much protection. “As long as we have eggs we are going to have this problem,” said Scott Hensley, a flu virus expert, “The only s

30、olution is not to depend on eggs.”Flu is a major killer. The 2017-2018 season has been a severe one, hitting the entire U.S. with widespread influenza infection (传染) at once for weeks on end, and killing 97 children so far. Against this threat, even a less satisfying flu vaccine will definitely help

31、. “Even when you have these mismatches it will not prevent infection but likely prevent disease severity,” said Hensley.28. Why does next season flu vaccine fail to improve?A. It has offered the best protection.B. Experts cant forecast the flu types.C. It is based on outdated technology.D. Experts a

32、re unwilling to respond to changes.29. According to Paragraph 2, what do flu experts do in February?A. Exchange views on the virus types next season.B. Gel together and make a deal on vaccines.C. Sign an agreement on vaccine production.D. Decide on how to circulate the viruses.30. What might be the ri
