研究人員最新研發(fā)出一種新型材料，它既像棉花一樣柔軟，又像凱芙拉合成纖維一樣堅(jiān)固，還像許多金屬一樣能夠?qū)щ姟?/p>

A?group?of?researchers?has?developed?a?new?material?which?is?as?soft?as?cotton?but?as?strong?as?Kevlar?and?as?conductive?as?many?metals.?It?can?be?worn?and?washed?like?normal?clothing?and?could?eventually?turn?clothes?into?smart?wearables.

The?new?material?works?similarly?to?the?wires?in?an?electrocardiogram?（ECG）?monitoring?device，?which?measures?heart?rhythms?to?detect?heart?conditions.?But?instead?of?having?to?be?attached?to?the?skin，?they?can?be?sewn?into?a?T?shirt?and?worn?like?normal?athletic?wear.?Unlike?wires，?the?threads?can?comfortably?move?with?the?wearer，?and?be?washed，?and?worn?repeatedly?without?breaking?down.

The?smart?shirt?is?also?designed?for?athletes，?whether?you?re?a?runner，?a?cyclist?or?any?other?athlete.??With?the?help?of?the?integrated?sensors?into?the?shirt?along?with?the?clip?on?box?to?record?the?data，?it?can?not?only?measure?heart?rate?but?also?fitness?and?stress?levels.

The?Rice?University?lab?first?developed?carbon?nanotube?fibers?in?2013，?and?has?studied?its?use?in?medical?procedures.?But?at?the?time，?the?original?filaments?（細(xì)絲）?were?too?thin?to?be?used?by?a?standard?sewing?machine.?For?this?latest?research，?researchers?worked?with?a?rope?maker?to?weave?the?filaments?together?into?a?material?similar?to?regular?sewing?thread?that?could?be?sewn?into?athletic?wear.?The?resulting?smart?shirt?provides?soft，?wearable，?dry?sensors?for?heart?monitoring.?With?some?changes，?clothing?with?these?fibers?could?eventually?be?able?to?track?other?vital?signs.

The?smart?shirts?aren?t?entirely?without?wires，?however.?One?example?shows?the?nanotube?fibers?in?the?shirt?feeding?signals?to?wires?on?the?bottom?that?send?the?information?through?Bluetooth?technology?to?a?computer.

“You?don?t?just?find?soft，?flexible，?thread?like?materials?that?are?comfortable?to?the?touch，?that?you?can?work?with，?that?you?can?build?a?bridge?out?of?it，?but?you?can?also?run?it?through?a?sewing?machine，”?said?a?member?of?the?research?team.?“Nothing?else?behaves?like?this.”

Difficult?sentence?in?the?text

With?the?help?of?the?integrated?sensors?into?the?shirt?along?with?the?clipon?box?to?record?the?data，?it?can?not?only?measure?heart?rate?but?also?fitness?and?stress?levels.?在記錄數(shù)據(jù)的內(nèi)置傳感器和夾在T恤上的盒子的幫助下，智能襯衫不僅可以測(cè)量心率，還可以測(cè)量健康和壓力水平。

【點(diǎn)石成金】本句運(yùn)用了not?only...but?also的結(jié)構(gòu)。如果not?only置于句首時(shí)，用部分倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)，but?also部分用正常語序。
