33、ld eventually be used to develop a sustainable liquid fuel alternative to petrol.The carbon-neutral(碳中和)device sets a new standard in the field of solar fuels,after researchers at the University of Cambridge demonstrated that it can directly produce the gas-called syngas(合成气)-in a sustainable and si
34、mple way.Rather than running on fossil fuels,the artificial leaf is powered by sunlight,although it still works efficiently on cloudy and overcast days.And unlike the current industrial processes for producing syngas,the leaf does not release any additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.The res
35、ults are reported in the journal Nature Materials.Syngas is currently made from a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide(-氧化碳),and is used to produce a range of products,such as fuels,medicines,plastics and fertilizers:“You may not have heard of syngas itself but every day,you consume products that
36、 were created using it.Being able to produce it sustainably would be a critical step in closing the global carbon cycle and establishing a sustainable chemical and fuel industry,said senior author Professor Erwin Reisner from Cambridges Department of Chemistry,who has spent seven years working towar
37、ds this goal.The device Reisner and his colleagues produced is inspired by photosynthesis-the natural process by which plants use the energy from sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into food.On the artificial leaf,two light absorbers,similar to the molecules in plants that harvest sunlight,are combined
38、 with a catalyst(催化剂)made from the naturally abundant element cobalt(钴).When the device is dipped in water,one light absorber uses the catalyst to produce oxygen:The other carries out the chemical reaction that reduces carbon dioxide and water into carbon monoxide and hydrogen,forming the syngas mix
39、ture.As an added bonus,the researchers discovered that their light absorbers work even under the low levels of sunlight on a rainy or overcast day.This means you are not limited to using this technology just in warm countries or only operating The process during the summer months,”said PhD student V

43、ixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide.C For some people,higher education is not just a goal in life,but also an expectation.In the United States,if your parents attended a college or university,there is a good chance that you will,too.Even if your parents did not go to college,you still have a good
44、 chance of completing higher education if your family is wealthy.But your chances are reduced if you come from a needy family,a community with limited educational resources or you simply have no one to follow as an example.Helping those in need is one of the main ideas behind a strategy of behaviora
45、l science called nudge theory or nudging.Nudging is a way of changing peoples behavior through indirect suggestion and by supporting positive actions.A growing number of U.S.colleges and universities look to nudging as way to support poor,minority and first-generation students,They also are using it
46、 to increase overall graduation rates.Two common forms of nudging are emails to students and text messages to their mobile phones.Schools and other educational organizations keep in contact with students this way,offering advice and help when needed.However,Alejandra Acosta-a higher education policy
47、 expert at New America 一 notes that there are several qualities a nudge campaign must possess in order to be successful.Acosta says messages must be timely,meaning they reach college students well before the date by which a student is required to take action.Additionally nudges should be written cle
48、arly and provide as much information as possible.If students start to struggle in class,school officials should not just message them,saying they should seek academic support.The message should give information about what kinds of support the college or university offers and exactly how the student
49、can make use of them.That is why nudges should possess interactive qualities,Acosta says.For example,students should be able to ask questions of school officials or be directed to a website for more information.In addition,colleges and universities must ensure their support services are in place and
50、 working as best they can.When nudges work,they can do a lot of good.In 2018,a nonprofit group launched a nudging campaign at four U.S.community colleges.They worked with nearly 10.000 first-year students at three such colleges in Ohio and one in Virginia.A recent study found that older and minority
