III. Further reading

Answer the questions:

     If you don’t like mushrooms, it might be because you haven’t tried them yet in dress or jacket form. Believe it or not, mushrooms can now be fashioned into flexible (柔韧的) leather-like (像皮革一样的) clothing, purses (钱包), pants, and even durable (耐用的) furniture and building bricks for a cleaner, more sustainable (可持续的) planet.  

       According to the Mogu Agency, which specializes (专门从事) in developing naturally-grown biomaterials (生物材料) and products, mushroom-based fabric () can be tweaked () to be as hard as shell-like (贝壳似的) or as soft as a sponge (海绵), depending on the amount of light, humidity (湿度), exchange of gas, temperature, and types of “food” the mushroom is given.

       Mogu has proven (证明) that fabric created from mycelium (菌丝) is non-toxic (无毒的), waterproof (防水的), and fire-resistant (防火的). It can be as thin as paper for dresses and lamp shades, or incredibly (特别地) thick, and in both cases, the end result is remarkably (惊人的) flexible and strong.

 

· What can mushrooms be made into?

  Cloth, purses, furniture, and bricks.

 

· What is cloth made out of mushrooms like?

  It can be hard or soft depending on how it is grown.

 

· Why is mushroom-based fabric remarkable?

  It is non-toxic, waterproof, and fire-resistant. It can be both flexible and strong.
