我們都知道,雨傘叫 umbrella,那麼透明雨傘只需要在 umbrella前加上 see-through 透明。除了 see-through umbrella 以外,雨傘還有諸多種類。點擊左下角「閱讀原文」了解更多。
閱讀今天的推送,看 see-through 出現的一個語境,順便了解一點粗淺的科學知識吧。
SOFT AND HARD PLASTICS
Plastics usually contain several other chemicals, called additives, to give them different properties. Some are mixed with hardeners so they are tough and resist scratching. Others have softener additives so they will squash and bend easily, then spring back to their original shape, like natural rubber.
▸ additive 添加劑
▸ hardener 固化劑,硬化劑
▸ softener 柔順劑,軟化劑
▸ squash 壓走形,壓扁
▸ spring back 彈回
SEE-THROUGH PLASTIC
Lighter than glass, and much less fragile, transparent plastics are ideal for everything from windows to water bottles. We can see through these plastics because of the way their molecules are arranged. All plastics are made up from long chains called polymers. If these polymers all line up side-by-side, the plastic becomes see-through.
▸ polymer 聚合物
▸ see-through 薄至透明的,透視的
PLASTIC RECYCLING
Most plastics are long-lasting and do not rot away. This makes them very useful, but also causes problems when we no longer need them. Unlike wood and natural textiles, plastics stay around when we throw them away, building up in rubbish heaps. The best way to deal with this is to melt down used plastic and turn it into new products we can use again. This process is called recycling.
▸ long-lasting 持久的
▸ rot away 爛掉
▸ textile 紡織品
▸ stay around 待著不走
▸ build up 逐漸增加
▸ rubbish heap 垃圾堆
