Over 40 years ago, a country music DJ convention was held every year in Nashville, Tennessee. Many country performers used to attend the convention to give their performances. Fans would go to Nashville hoping to see their favorite performers. In the end, so many fans began showing up in Nashville that a festival named Fan Fair was born.
The first Fan Fair was held in April 1972 in Nashville for four days. Some of the biggest country music stars attended. There were about fifty thousand fans. The first Fan Fair was so successful that the second one in 1973 was planned almost immediately. The date was changed to June, when the weather would be better. Over one hundred thousand fans, attended the second Fan Fair.
Every year brought so many performers and fans to Fan Fair that, in 1982, it was moved to the Tennessee State Fairgrounds. Fan Fair stayed at the Fairgrounds for another nineteen years.
There was always the unexpected during the festival. In 1974, former Beatles Paul McCartney attended. In 1992, more than six hundred reporters from Europe, Asia, and South America went to cover the appearance of a popular star, Billy Ray Cyrus, who had introduced a new country line dance. In 1996, Garth Brooks, who made a surprise appearance, signed autographs for 23 hours.
In 2001, Fan Fair returned to downtown Nashville as the world’s biggest country music festival. Nowadays, over one hundred and twenty-five thousand country music fans go to Nashville every June. As you can imagine, those who want to attend Fan Fair must plan ahead. For example, they need to buy a ticket several months ahead of time. Of course, there’s much more to prepare.

“I’ve been contacted by everyone from designers to companies that make clothes and shoes,” said Xiulin Ruan, a developer of the world’s whitest paint. They mainly had two questions: Where can I buy it, and can you make it thinner?”
The original world’s whitest paint could reflect (反射) 98.1% of sunlight, cooling outdoor surfaces more than 4.5°C below surrounding temperature. Cover your wall in that paint, and you could cool your home with much less air conditioning. But there’s a problem. “To achieve this level of cooling, we had to make it thick,” Ruan said. “That’s fine if you’re painting something strong. But in applications that have strict size and weight requirements, the paint needs to be thinner and lighter.”
That’s why Ruan’s team began experimenting with other materials. Their latest solution achieves nearly the same standard of solar (太阳的) reflectance (97.9%) with just a thin layer (层) of paint and it weighs 80% less.
“This light weight opens the doors to all kinds of applications.” said George Chiu, an expert in inkjet printing. “Now this paint has the chance to cool the surfaces of airplanes, cars or trains. An airplane sitting on a hot summer day won’t have to run its air conditioning as hard to cool the inside, saving large amounts of energy. Spacecraft also have to be as light as possible, and this paint can be a part of that.”
As to that other big question—where can I buy the paint—Ruan explains, “We are in discussions right now to put it on the market. There are still a few issues that need to be addressed, but progress is being made.”
Either way, these researchers look forward to what the paint could bring. “Using this paint will help cool surfaces and greatly reduce the need for air conditioning,” Ruan said. “This not only saves money, but it reduces energy usage, which in turn slows down global warming. It’s pretty amazing that paint can do all that.”
12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. Difficulties Xiulin Ruan met. B. Advantages of the new paint.
C. Popularity of the new paint. D. Applications of the new paint.
13. What is the advantage of the new paint compared to the original whitest paint?
A. Less weight. B. Higher strength.
C. Higher solar reflectance. D. Greater cooling efficiency.
14. What is George Chiu’s attitude to the new paint?
A. Unclear. B. Positive. C. Uncaring. D. Doubtful.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. The World’s Lightest Paint
B. The Best Paint on the Market
C. The New Paint Will Replace Air Conditioners
D. The World’s Whitest Paint is Now Thinner than Ever
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D

【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段内容““I’ve been contacted by everyone from designers to companies that make clothes and shoes,” said Xiulin Ruan, a developer of the world’s whitest paint. They mainly had two questions: Where can I buy it, and can you make it thinner?””（“从设计师到生产服装和鞋子的公司，每个人都联系过我，”世界上最白的油漆开发者阮修林说。他们主要有两个问题：我在哪里可以买到，你能把它做得更薄吗？”）可知，从设计师到生产服装和鞋子的公司，很多人都想购买超白漆，由此可知，第一段主要讲了新油漆的受欢迎程度。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段关键句“Their latest solution achieves nearly the same standard of solar (太阳的) reflectance (97.9%) with just a thin layer (层) of paint and it weighs 80% less.”（他们最新的解决方案只需一层薄薄的油漆就可以达到几乎相同的太阳反射率标准（97.9%），而且重量减轻了80%。）可知，与原来的超白油漆相比，在达到相同效果的前提下，新油漆的重量减轻了80%，由此可知，与原来的超白油漆相比，新油漆的优势是重量减轻。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段关键句““This light weight opens the doors to all kinds of applications.” said George Chiu, an expert in inkjet printing.”（喷墨打印专家George Chiu说：“这种重量轻的油漆，为各种应用打开了大门。”）可知，George Chiu认为这种新型油漆适用于许多种情况，为各种应用打开了大门，由此可知，George Chiu对新油漆的态度是积极乐观的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第三段关键句“Their latest solution achieves nearly the same standard of solar (太阳的) reflectance (97.9%) with just a thin layer (层) of paint and it weighs 80% less.”（他们最新的解决方案只需一层薄薄的油漆就可以达到几乎相同的太阳反射率标准（97.9%），而且重量减轻了80%。）可知，本文介绍了一种新型的超白油漆，在达到相同效果的前提下，比传统的超白油漆重量减轻了80%，“The World’s Whitest Paint is Now Thinner than Ever”意为“世界上最白的油漆现在比以往任何时候都薄”，选项能够概括文章主要内容。故选D项。
