21、wasted, as warm air and cool air escape through fireplace chimneys and thin or poorly fitting windows and doors. A passive house loses almost none."Imagine a thermos(保温瓶),"said housing developer Brendan ONeill."You have insulation(隔绝) everywhere, and its basically completely sealed. A

22、nd so the idea is to build a house like a thermos. So the windows are sealed. Theres insulation completely surrounding the building. We make it as sealed as possible."A 147-square-meter passive house, presented by ONeill Development Corp. as a demonstration unit just outside Washington, was bro

23、ught to the site in two boxes."Once its set and put together, it takes about four weeks to complete the outside construction, to put down carpets,"ONeill said."If everything is set in place, you put a house like this together in about four months."The total cost of building it wa

24、s $325,000, or about 17 percent more than constructing an ordinary house. But its utility(公用事业) bill is only around $20 monthly, or one-tenth the amount for the average house of the same size.While passive houses have been around for a long time, the idea has never taken root in the U.S. There was n

25、o driving force to push it.However, David Peabody, an architect who designs passive houses said,"I think climate change is now becoming a larger issue. And I think building standards are catching on to that. So people are becoming more aware of energy."Peabody said the cost of building pas

26、sive houses could come down."What really makes sense for truly affordable housing,"he said,"is to build multi-storey buildings."21Why arent ordinary family homes energy-efficient?A.Building them wastes much energy.B.Their energy mainly goes to heating and cooling.C.Their sealing

27、performance is poor.D.They have no insulation around at all.22What is the feature of a passive house?A.Therere no windows or chimneys.B.Theres little space to place furniture.C.Its building cost is relatively high.D.It takes about four weeks to build one.23How are passive houses in the U.S. now?A.Th

28、ey enjoy little popularity.B.Multi-storey ones are common.C.Building passive houses is impractical.D.Their advantages are still unclear.24Whats David Peabodys attitude to the future of the passive house?A.Cautious.B.Optimistic.C.Skeptical.D.Concerned.【解析】21C。根据第二段中的"a lot of it is wasted, as wa

29、rm air and cool air escape through fireplace chimneys and thin or poorly fitting windows and doors"可知,普通住房的能源浪费较多,接着下面以保温瓶为例说明被动式节能屋的密封性好,由此可推知,普通房屋的密封性不好。22C。根据第三段中的"The total cost of building it was $325,000, or about 17 percent more than constructing an ordinary house"可知,被动式节能屋的建筑成

30、本比普通房屋高大约17%,故C项正确。23A。根据第四段的内容可知,尽管被动式节能屋已经诞生了很长时间了,但是这个概念还未在美国根深蒂固,没有推广这种房屋的动力。言外之意就是被动式节能屋现在并未在美国盛行。24B。根据最后一段段首的转折词"However"和后面的内容"I think climate change is now becoming a larger issue. And I think building standards are catching on to that. So people are becoming more aware of en

31、ergy""the cost of building passive houses could come down"可知,David Peabody认为气候变化现在是一个大事件,建筑标准在紧跟这一点,因此人们的节能意识在增强,此外,被动式节能屋的(建筑)成本可能会降低,这些都会促使被动式节能屋的盛行,故他对被动式节能屋的前景是乐观的。【备注】本文是说明文。普通的家庭住房因隔热效果不佳而浪费了很多能源,因此,被动式节能屋应运而生。 My divorce was now final and I needed to find a new home for me

32、 and my six-year-old son, Dash. A few days earlier Id seen an ad. I was willing to try anything, so I contacted the owner, a woman named Camille. When she e-mailed me back I discovered she wasnt renting a house at all. She was renting the attic (阁楼) apartment. I left her a message calling off our me

33、eting.But Camille called me back and insisted I come over. So here I was. I pulled the car to a stop and looked up at the tiny cottage. The house was small as it was. The attic window looked too tiny to let much light in. We couldnt live in a dark, depressing place. I could make do with almost anyth

34、ing. But Dash needs a good home, a place he really feels safe.No sense in wasting her time or mine. I knocked. The woman who opened the door was small and bright-eyed. She was much older than Id guessed, but I could see she had the energy of someone half her age. She looked so sympathetic that I fou

35、nd myself wanting to keep talking to her."We have to leave our home,"I explained."My marriage ended. I only have a few days to find something else, but I want it to be right."Camille nodded."Youre a good mother. You never know the miracles that await youaround the corner.&qu

36、ot;Camille walked me to the door and wished me well. I got back in the car andsnapped out of it. I drove off slowly, hoping to make the feeling last. I turned down a side street I didnt recognize. I glanced out of the side window. Just up ahead was a cottage with a sign out in front: for rent.I pull

37、ed over. I found the owners had just bought the house themselves and were decorating it, hoping to find the perfect renters. They took me on a tour of the house that was like a copy of my list: a big bedroom for Dash, a backyard with trees, and a great school nearby. The house was meant for us!Camil

38、le was right. Miracles await us, just around the corner.25How did the author feel after receiving Camilles e-mail?A.Disappointed.B.Excited.C.Anxious.D.Content.26Why must the author find a good place?A.To begin a new life.B.To give Dash a good education.C.For her sons sake.D.For her and her sons safe

39、ty.27What does the underlined part"snapped out of it"probably mean?A.Say something in an impatient voice.B.Stop feeling unhappy or depressed.C.Make a sharp noise suddenly.D.Lose control of ones feelings.28What message does the passage mainly convey?A.Never lose hope.B.No pains, no gains.C.

40、Every little bit helps.D.Well begun is half done.【解析】25A。根据第一段中的"When she e-mailed me back I discovered she wasnt renting a house at all. I left her a message calling off our meeting"可推知,收到Camille的邮件之后,作者发现她出租的房子并不是自己想要的那种,因此给Camille留言取消见面,由此可推知作者应是感到失望的。26C。根据第二段中的"We couldnt live in

41、 a dark, depressing place. I could make do with almost anything. But Dash needs a good home, a place he really feels safe"可知,作者觉得她和儿子Dash不能住在黑暗又压抑的地方,她自己可以忍受得了一切,但是Dash需要一个温暖的家,一个他真正感觉安全的地方,第四段也提到"Youre a good mother",由此可知,作者心心念念要找一个好地方完全是为了儿子Dash。27B。根据第四段的内容,尤其是"You never know

42、the miracles that await you around the corner. I drove off slowly, hoping to make the feeling last"可知,在Camille的鼓励下,作者重新燃起对生活的希望,摆脱了郁闷的心境,她驾车慢慢离开,希望这种愉悦的感觉持续下去。故画线部分应是"抛掉不愉快的情绪,摆脱郁闷的心境"之意。28A。根据文章内容,尤其是第四段中的"You never know the miracles that await you around the corner"及最后一段中的

43、"Miracles await us, just around the corner"可知答案为A。【备注】本文是记叙文,讲述的是作者离婚后,独自带着儿子寻找出租房屋的经历。 Children who spend more time outdoors may have a lower risk of becoming nearsighted, new research suggests.In the study, researchers looked at about 1,900 schoolchildren. The scientists found that

44、the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop nearsightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors. Moreover, among the kids who did become nearsighted during the study, the degree t

45、o which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors.The researchers selected six schools and required the children, whose average age was 7 at the start of the study, to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for t

46、hree years. The parents of these children were also encouraged to engage their children in outdoor activities after school, especially during weekends and holidays. The other half of the children, from another six schools, continued their usual activity patterns. Afterthree years, 30.4 percent of th

47、e kids in the intervention(干预) group had become nearsighted, compared with 38.5 percent of the kids in the other group.It is not clear exactly why spending more time outside would benefit childrens eyesight, the researchers said. However, some research has suggested that the higher levels of light i

48、ntensity found outdoors may increase the release of the chemical dopamine(多巴胺) of the eye. In turn, dopamine is known to restrain the type of growth in the eye that is associated with nearsightedness.Based on the new results, the researchers recommend that children spend more time outdoors because o

49、f the potential benefits to their eyesight. However, its important to protect kids skin and eyes from UV light, which can be damaging.29What did the children in the intervention group do during each school day?A.Attend an extra class of outdoor activities.B.Continue to do their usual activities.C.Sp

50、end one hour in doing eye exercises.D.Participate in outdoor activities with parents.30What can be inferred about the chemical dopamine?A.It can contribute to poor sight.B.It can damage peoples brain.C.It is beneficial to eyesight.D.It means low levels of light intensity.31What may be discussed in t

51、he following paragraph?A.How to design outdoor activities for kids.B.How to prevent kids becoming nearsighted.C.How to protect kids skin and eyes from UV light.D.How to encourage kids to join in outdoor activities.32Which can serve as the best title for the passage?A.The More Time Outdoors, the Bett

52、erB.Kids May See Better if They Play OutsideC.Its Time to Engage Kids in Outdoor ActivitiesD.Researchers Found a Cure for Nearsightedness【解析】29A。根据第三段中的"required the children. to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for three years"可知,这一组的孩子每个教

53、学日都额外上一节为时一个小时的户外活动课。30C。根据第四段中的"In turn, dopamine is known to restrain the type of growth in the eye that is associated with nearsightedness"可知多巴胺对视力是有好处的。31C。根据最后一段最后一句中的"its important to protect kids skin and eyes from UV light"可推知,接下来作者很可能会讲怎样保护孩子的皮肤和眼睛免受紫外线的伤害。32B。根据文章内容尤其是第

54、一段中的"Children who spend more time outdoors may have a lower risk of becoming nearsighted"可知,本文主要讲的是在户外活动比较多的孩子患近视的概率较小。故B项最能概括文章的大意。【备注】本文为说明文。科学研究发现户外活动能减少孩子患近视的概率。 Mini Riser Attractive, Compact, Adjustable Laptop StandPRICE:$10.95KEY FEATURES:*A compact, stylish laptop riser design
