(2018·沈阳高三模拟)The biggest challenge faced by travelers especially those who like to have a backpacking trip is how to ensure a steady supply of clean clothes.Now，thanks to a great invention called the Scrubba Wash Bag，that worry may be a thing of the past.
The portable washing machine was invented by Ash Newland in 2010，while he was planning to climb Mt.Kilimanjaro.Struck by the limited packing space，he got inspiration from traditional washboards to create a bag that could be used to clean clothes.Then he quitted his career as a lawyer and focused on perfecting the bag’s design.By 2012，the bag was ready for the public.It weighed only 180 grams and required very little storage space，making it perfect for anyone wishing to travel light.
Not surprisingly，the bag worth 55 dollars was an instant hit with travelers，university students and even passengers.However，Newland was not satisfied.He still saw a disadvantage with his invention—dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag！The recently introduced Scrubba Wash Bag solves that problem.

In order to make the pack active，dirty clothes are placed inside the bag along with two or three liters of water.The bag is then shut tightly to ensure all air is squeezed out and the clothes are massaged for a few minutes.After a quick wash，they are clean and ready to be dried.According to Newland，the pack can clean anything from jeans to smelly socks！What’s even more amazing is that with a capacity to hold 13 liters of water，it can be used to wash more clothes at a time.
The best part is that the 99－dollar pack that will be available for sale later this year，only weighs 300 grams and is completely foldable，making it easy to store when it’s not in use.With the Scrubba Wash Bag，wandering through foreign cities，searching for a laundry，or paying for washing machines may soon be a thing of the past!
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了Scrubba Wash Bag的产生背景和功能。
4．What led Ash Newland to create the Scrubba Wash Bag?
A．His job requirements.
B．A traditional washboard.
C．His interest in invention.
D．His personal experience.
D 解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The portable washing machine was invented ...clean clothes.”可知，在计划攀登乞力马扎罗山时，Ash Newland发明出了便携式洗衣机。由于苦恼于有限的背包空间，他从传统的洗衣板中得到灵感而得以创造出一个可以用来洗衣服的背包，故选D项，即Ash Newland因为自己的个人经历而发明了这款背包。
5．Why wasn’t Ash Newland satisfied with his former invention?
A．Clothes couldn’t be washed well.
B．The invention was not so convenient.
C．The bag couldn’t contain enough water.
D．The cost of the invention was very high.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“However，Newland was not satisfied.He still saw a disadvantage with his invention—dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag！”可知，Newland之所以不满意，是因为他发现这个发明有一个缺点——脏衣服不得不放在一个分开的包里带来带去，不方便。故B项是正确的。
6．It can be inferred that the improved Scrubba Wash Bag________．
A．turns to be much environmentally friendlier
B．will replace the traditional washing machines
C．will be widely used by more travelers in the future
D．can encourage more people to travel a long distance

A．A Thing of the Past：Travelers’ Worry of the Clothes Washing
B．The Scrubba Wash Bag—A Bag Free of Washing
