    At Dallas/Fort Worth Airport, the lights are controlled by sensors that measure sunlight. They dim immediately when it's sunny and brighten when a passing cloud blocks the sun.

   A wall of windows at a University of Pennsylvania engineering budding has built-in blinds (百页窗) controlled by a computer program that follows the sun's path.

   Buildings are getting smarter -- and the next generation of building materials

expected to do even more.

   Windows could catch the sun's energy to heat water. Sensors that measure the carbon

dioxide breathed out by people in a mom could determine whether the air conditioning needs to be turned up.

   Many new materials and technology have been designed in the last 15 years. They now being used in a wave of buildings designed to save as much energy as possible. They include old ideas, like "green roofs," where a belt of plants on a roof helps the building keep heat in winter and stay cool in summer, and new ideas, like special coating for windows that lets light in, but keeps heat out.

   As technologies such as sensors become cheaper, their uses spread.

   The elevators (电梯) at Seven World Trade Center, which is under construction in New York, use a system that groups people traveling to nearby floor into the same elevator, thus saving elevator stops. People who work in the building will enter it by swiping (刷) ID cards that will tell the elevators their floor; readouts will then tell them which elevator to use. The building also has windows with a coating that blocks heal while letting in light.

   More new building materials and technology are in development. A Philadelphia building farm is now working on "smart wrap" that uses tiny solar collectors to catch the

sun's energy and transmitters (传感器) the width of a human hair to move it. They are expected to change the face of the construction industry in the next ten years or so.

72. __ will be developed and used in the construction industry.

     A. "Green mops" that cool or heat buildings

     B. "Smart wrap" that catches the sun's energy

     C. Sunlight-measuring sensors that control lights

     D. Window coating that lets light in, but keeps heat out                          

73. The elevators at Seven World Trade Center are special because they can ___

     A. send people to floors with fewer stops

     B. teach people how to use their ID cards

     C. make people stay very cool in summer

     D. help people go traveling in the building                                                

74. The underlined word "it' in the last paragraph refers to _____.

     A. a human being            B. smart wrap

     C. the sun's energy                 D. a transmitter                   

75. What might be the most suitable title for the text?

     A. Buildings Are Becoming Smarter

     B. Buildings Are Getting More Sunlight

     C. Buildings Are Lacking in Much Energy

     D. Buildings Are Using Cheaper Materials              

 

Los Angeles June 14, 2006 – Hollywood actress Daryl Hannah was arrested yesterday after spending two weeks sitting in a walnut tree on an urban farm a few kilometers from downtown Los Angeles. She was one of 40 people, including celebrities from the music and movie world, who were protesting at the proposed destruction of the 14 – acre farm. Police officers cut away branches from the tree and used a fire engine to reach Ms Hannah and her co – protester, environmentalist John Quigley. The two of them raised their fists in defiance(反抗)as they were removed.

Protesters, some of whom had chained themselves to concrete –filled barrels(桶),said that it was essential to keep the farm operating, as it provided food for hundreds of poor families in the area. About 350 people grow produce and flowers on the farm, which has been there for more than a decade and is situated in an inner –city area surrounded by warehouses and railroad tracks. However, the local authority recently approved plans for the area to be cleared and redeveloped for the construction of a huge new warehouse.

 

Ms Hannah, 45, star of films such as Splash and Kill Bill was not thrilled about being arrested. “But I felt it was important to show my support for the people,” she said. “This farm should be a model for sustainable (可持续的) urban agriculture. It needs to be replicated, not eradicated.”

The record length for a tree protest is held by a woman called Julia Hill, who remained on top of a 30-metre-high redwood tree in Northern California for 738 days from December 1997 to December 1999. She was successful in saving the tree and those around it from destruction. Ms Hill was also at the Los Angeles urban farm project this week, but her presence failed to stop the inevitable (不可避免的). No sooner had the protesters been removed than earth-moving machines moved in and began to clear the land.
