It sounds all wrong一drilling holes in a piece of wood to make it more resistant to
knocks.But it works because the energy from the blow gets distributed throughout the wood
rather than focusing on one weak spot.The discovery should lead to more effective and
lighter packaging materials.
Carpenters have known_________(1)centuries that some woods are tougher than
others. Hickory (山核桃木）,for example, was turned into axe handles and cartwheel
spokes（轮辐）because it can absorb shocks without breaking.White oak,for example,
is much more easily damaged,_________(2)it is almost as dense.Julian Vincent at
Bathe University and his team were convinced the wood's internal structure could explain the
differences.
Many trees have tubular（管的）vessels that run_________(3) the trunk and carry
water to the leaves.In oak they are large,and arranged in narrow bands,but in hickory
they are smaller, and more evenly distributed.The researchers_______(4)this
