Visitors to Britain are always complaining about English food. But they do not really know what they
are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have
foreign owners and serve foreign food. When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts often feel they must offer them something foreign. Those of us who do know English food are aware that at its
best it can be really very good. On the other hand it is true to say that it is sometimes terrible. Part of the
problem is that we are not really interested in food-we eat to live, we do not live to eat. So we don't
generally spend the necessary time and effort needed to cook really good meals. We prefer food that is
simple and easy to cook, or ready prepared food which only needs heating up before eating.
You can find that best English food is in the country, where life is slower and people are not in such a
hurry. But, of course, most visitors come to London. They come because they are interested in shopping
and sightseeing. They do not come because of the food, so why should they complain about it?
B. prefer to take their guests to restaurants
C. have to serve the food their guests are used to having
D. prefer to serve them English food
B. we do not eat to live, we live to eat
C. we eat to live, but not live to eat
D. we eat to live, we live to eat
B. with only fresh vegetables
C. some typical English food
D. in a quick and easy way
B. it is possible to find good English food in towns but it takes time to find
C. apart from food, people also come to go shop-ping and sightseeing
D. if people complain about English food, they will get better food
Sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat, black surfaces. One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are rub of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?
Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.
The heat-colleetor is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them ran from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground.
When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer (蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warning the ground-water, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.
In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.
1.Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?
A. Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.
B. Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.
C. The Dutch engineer's system has been widely used.
D. Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.
2.For what purpose are the diving pipes used?
A. To absorb heat from the sun.
B. To store heat for future use.
C. To turn solar energy into heat energy.
D. To carry heat down below the surface.
3.From the last paragraph we can learn that __
A. some pipes have to be re-arranged in winter
B. the system can do more than warming up the building
C. the exchangers will pick up heat from the street surface
D. less heat may be collected in winter than in summer
