阅读下列短文，然后按要求完成读写任务
Microwaves may be great at warming up
food
，
but what
about warming people?
Using
microwaves to directly heat owners of a room would
save much of the energy
wasted by
heating walls and despite popular ideas about
microwaves
，
this
technique
would
be
safe
，
according
to
Charles
R
．
Burlier
of
the
Microwave
Research
Center in
Marlborough
，New ?power microwaves only
penetrate (贯穿
)the
skin
(low?power microwave penetration
in a
ham is about 0.2 inches
，
for
example)and
with no negative effects.
To
test
this
idea
，
Buffler
subjected
himself
to
microwaves
in
a
special
room
using
a standard
500?watt,2,459 MHz magnetron
(磁控管
)
．
He found
that a person will start
to feel warmth
at about 20 milliwatts per square centimeter (mw./
.)
；
a
satisfactory
feeling of warmth occurs between 35 and 50mw./
comparison
，
a
person
standing
in
noonday
summer
sun
feels
the
amount
of
85
mw./
a
frozen
meat pie in your
microwave oven receives about 1,000 mw./ .
In houses of the
future
，
each room could be
provided with its own
magnetron
，
says you stepped
into the living room
，
for
example
，
a motion detector
(
运动感应器
)would
turn
on
the
magnetron
，
filling
the
room
with
low?power
micr
the same way that a microwave oven
heats up a hamburger
，
but not
the plate it's on
，
you would
feel warmth from the microwaves without changing
the temperature of your
coffee
could
，
however
，
make
your
favorite
easy
chair
even
more
comfortable
by treating it with a
radiation
－
absorbing
chemical.
While it might be some time
before homeowners are comfortable enough with the
idea to set up whole?body microwave
heaters in houses，
Buffler says
microwaves may
attract
livestock(
家畜
)
that
are
born
outdoors
in
winter
，
for
example
，
are
frequently lost to aves could warm the lambs
safely and quickly.

From her first
women's hat shop, opened in 1910, Gabrielle Coco
Chanel rose
to become one of the most
important fashion designers in Paris. Her fashion
themes
included simple suits and
dresses, women's trousers, perfume
(
香水
) and so on.
She claimed a birth date
of 1893 and a birthplace of Auvergne; she was
actually
born in 1883 in Saumur,
though. Her mother worked in a nursing home for
pool people.
Gabrielle was born there.
Her mother died whet she was only six.
She
began
to
use

1920s
，
her
fashion
house
had
expanded
greatly.
Her
relaxing
fashions,

In 1922 Chanel
introduced a perfume, Chanel No.5 which became
very popular and
still remains a
popular product today. Pierre Wertheimer became
her partner in the
perfume business in
1924. Wertheimer owned 70% of the company, Coco
Chanel 10% and
her
friend,
Bader,
20%.
The
Wertheimers
continue
to
control
the
perfume
company
today.
She briefly served as a nurse in World
War I. The fashion business in Paris was
thus off for
some years. In 1954 she came back and her women's
clothing business
returned to its
former popularity. Her natural, casual clothing
once again caught
the eye of women. She
was still working in 1971 when she died.
