16.While being lost in the woods can be a frightening experience,surviving alone in the wild is generally a matter of common sense,patience,and wisely using the gifts that nature provides.(36)D.
Do your research first.Don't just trek off into the wilderness; get a solid understanding of your surroundings first.Studying a map of the area where you're going--and making sure to bring it with you--will increase your chances of not getting lost tremendously.Educate yourself about the flora and fauna of the area you are exploring.(37)C.
(38)A.A cell phone with a spare battery or a portable CB radio can be your best,quickest means of rescue if you are truly lost or injured.A cell signal may only be obtainable only from a hill or tree,but is better than nothing.Serious hikers may even consider investing in a personal locator beacon such as the SPOT Messenger for extended,precarious,or very remote,treks.
Don't panic if you're lost.Panic is more dangerous than almost anything else,because it interferes with the operation of your single best,most useful and versatile survival tool:your mind.The moment you realize that you are lost,before you do anything else,stop.(39)F.Before you act,follow the idea of STOP:S=sit down T=think O=observe your surroundings P=prepare for survival by gathering materials.
Signal your location.Make noise by whistling,shouting,singing,or banging rocks together.(40)B.If you're in a mountain meadow,make three piles of dark leaves or branches in a triangle.In sandy areas,make a large triangle in the sand.Three of anything in the wilderness is a standard distress signal. 

A.Bring a means of communication.
B.If you can,mark your location in such a way that it's visible from the air.
C.Knowledge of the local plants and animals can save your life 
D.If you want to know how to survive in the woods,just follow these steps.
E.Starvation won't be a big problem.
F.Take a deep breath and stay calm.
G.Having strength in numbers will help you survive.

分析 本文主要介绍了虽然在森林中迷路是一种可怕的经历,但只要掌握技巧仅能生存下来.方法有:1、对当地做调查;2、带一个通信工具;3、迷路后不要感到惊慌;4、对你所在的位置做标记.

1.Whales,seals and walruses stay warm in cold water because they have a thick layer of blubber.We humans rely on something like blubber-neoprene rubber wet suits-to 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 can't carry around a thick layer of blubber.So instead they have fur that 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.
"We're creating these furry samples from these rubbery materials by laser cutting molds and casting these hairy surfaces.And through our approach we can precisely 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 liquid-in this case not water,but silicone oil,which makes it easier to see air bubbles.The key is to keep the pelt's air layer intact (完好的).
"So when they're 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 you're moving in through the interface.So that's what this model will tell you."
They found that the denser the hairs,the more the air gets trapped,which should keep the animal-or potentially the human in a future furry wet suit-warm.The research is in the journal Physical Review Fluids.
"What we would like to work on moving forward is understanding,after you dive into the water,how do you maintain this air layer trapped in your fur.And there's lots of interesting properties of the fur in nature that we haven't yet looked at in our model that could help explain how this mechanism might work."
So for now,cold-water divers and surfers will still emulate seals or sea lions.But the day may come when they'll more closely resemble otters or beavers.
