This cartoon uses the double meaning of the word 'Absorbing'. Absorbing can mean something that takes in a lot of liquid (like a sponge), but it can also mean something that is so interesting that it takes all your attention. The scientist here has chosen to study sponges for one of these reasons (or both!).
Absorbing在這裡有雙重意思:形容吸收很多液體的物品(如海綿sponge);引申至引人入勝的事物。漫畫中的科學家研究海綿,是因為其中一個(或以上兩個)原因。■漫畫&說明:英國文化協會
