7、points)Text 1Whales, seals and walruses stay warm in cold water because they have a thick layer of blubber. We humans rely on something like blubberneoprene rubber wet suitsto spend time in cold water. But the thick versions for really icy water are heavy and clumsy. So rather than taking after big marine mammals, what if we could learn from the littler ones, like beavers and otters?“These animals are quite small and they cant carry around a thick layer of blubber. So instead they have fur that

8、is evolved to trap air, and this air provides a layer of insulation for them in water.”Alice Nasto is a graduate student in mechanical engineering at MIT. Scientists have known about this air-trapping insulation mechanism for a long time, but they had not teased out the details of how it works. So Nasto and her colleagues took on the challenge.“Were creating these furry samples from these rubbery materials by laser cutting molds and casting these hairy surfaces. And through our approach we can p

9、recisely control the spacing of the hairs and the length of the hairs.”The researchers then created a system to gather data when their pelts (毛皮) entered and moved through a liquidin this case not water, but silicone oil, which makes it easier to see air bubbles. The key is to keep the pelts air layer intact (完好的).“So when theyre crossing the air water interface, initially their hairy texture is full of air. And then you go into water. How much of the air comes down with you as youre moving in through the interface. So thats what this model will tell you.”They found that the denser the hairs, the more the air gets trapped，which should keep the animalor potentially the hu
