Mayor Richard Daley later decided to have vegetation planted on Chicago City Hall. Today, the tops of many other buildings also look like parks. In Canada, the Coast Plaza Hotel in Vancouver has a forest on its roof. New York City has an unusual demonstration farm for hydroponics. The farm is on a boat called the Science Barge. Rainwater and purified river water are used to grow lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. The farm shows the possibilities for designing rooftop systems.Green roofs are designed to save energy and capture rainwater. Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool. They can extend the life of a roof. And they can reduce water running off into streets and storming water systems. Experts say green roofs usually do not get much above twentyseven degrees Celsius. So temperatures might not be a problem for growing. But rooftop gardeners have to be careful not to put too much weight on the roof. This is true whether plants are grown in soil or water.Earlier in 2008, researchers in Texas reported that green roofs can reduce a buildings air conditioning costs by about onefifth compared to blacktop roofs. But they also reported that not all green roofs perform equally well. They found that designs differ in their ability to keep buildings cool and to capture rainwater. The researchers put experimental roofs on top of metal insulated boxes, to recreate green roof conditions. The study compared products from six companies to help businesses understand how to improve their designs. Each rooftop had sixteen different kinds of plants native to Texas. The researchers say the presence of native plants likely helped all the green roofs capture water better compared to sedums. Sedums are plants that need little water and often are used on green roofs. The native plants could take in more water and release more of it to the atmosphere.本文主要介绍了一种新的环保模式绿色屋顶。21. The author gave Paragraph 1 to_.A. tell us what is green roof designB. tell us Germany is the country that leads or guides the green roof designC. introduce some famous hotels in the worldD. lead to the topic of the passage答案：D推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，第一段通过举例引出“绿色屋顶”的话题，为进一步阐述该话题作准备。22. The underlined word “storming” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by_.A. attacking B. controllingC. attracting D. managing答案：A词义猜测题。根据句子结构分析，and连接两个并列成分，前面的running off into stress可知这里的storming也用作动词，意为“侵袭”。23. The advantages of green roofs are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT_.A. changing the local weatherB. prolonging the roofs lifeC. keeping the house coolD. reducing the houses air conditioning costs答案：A细节理解题。根据第二段中的Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool. They can extend the life of a roof可知B、C两项正确；根据最后一段首句可知D项正确。A项文中未提及。24. According to the passage, which conclusion is WRONG?A. Sometimes green roofs may break down the house.B. Not all the green roofs can reduce the buildings air conditioning costs equally.C. Different designs of green roofs have different effects on buildings.D. Sedums are a kind of plants of native to Texas.答案：D细节理解题。根据第三段中的rooftop gardeners have to be careful not to put too much weight on the roof可推出A项正确；根据最后一段中的But they also reported that not all green roofs perform equally well可知B项正确；根据最后一段中的They found that designs differ in their ability to keep buildings cool and to capture rainwater可知C项正确；根据最后一段倒数第二、三句可知sedums不是Texas当地的植被。B2013江西安福中学高二期中As computers become more popular in China，Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(笔画)of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more. Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widespread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.Its faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And thats why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking_stock_in computers increasingly, problems appear. “When Im writing with a pen, I find I often cant remember how to write a character, though I feel Im familiar with it.” “Im not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”Many students dont feel this is something to worry about. Now that its more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite? Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writers emotion. Through ones handwriting, people can get to know ones thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory (必修的) and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.文章讲述的主要是学生过多的使用电脑，而影响了汉字的书写。25.
