4、Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to get rid of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus（校园）of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem – how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which uses not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.
Some parts of most modern buildings – theaters and offices as well as classrooms, are more sufficiently heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air – conditioned（使用空调的）even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing（再分配）it is called “heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from buildings and reuse it in others.
Along the way, Pittsburgh has learned a great deal about some of its producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students send out more heat that female students, and the larger a student is, the more heat he produces. We may conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard working overweight male genius（天才）.
1．What is the characteristic of the buildings on Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh?
A．They collect body heat to control the temperature inside.
B．They are more comfortable to live in than other buildings.
C．They use the light bulbs to heat the classroom.
D．They use less fuel to keep the classroom cool.
2．According to the passage, the technique of heat recovery is used .
A．to find the producers of heat
B．to provide heat for the hot water system
C．to make the campus more beautiful
D．to collect heat and reuse it
3．The underlined phrase “the hottest prospect” in this passage refers to .
A．the person who suffers most from heat
B．the person who needs more heat that others
C．the person who gives off most heat
D．the person who makes better use of heat
4．Which of the following may be the best title for this passage?
A．Recovery of Body Heat
B．Modern Building’s Heat System
C．Body Heat and Its Producers
D．Ways of Heating Building

Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to deal with it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus(校园)of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem—how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which uses not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs(灯泡)and fridges as well. The system works so well that no commonly used fuel is needed to make the campus's six buildings comfortable.
Some parts of most modern buildings theatres and offices as well as classrooms are more than amply(充分地)heated by people and lights and they sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing(再分配)it is called“heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University's system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and reuse it in others.
Along the way Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male student send out more heat than female students, and the larger the student is, the more heat he produces. It can be concluded(总结)that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working, over-weight male genius(天才).
