27、Waste heat from one of the London Underground’s lines will be used to warm over a thousand homes in the UK capital this winter. The warm air will be channeled from the Northern Line to support the London Borough of Islington’s district heating.

Named Bunhill 2,the heat network is a joint project between Islington Council, Transport for London and engineering firm Ramboll and is considered as the first of its kind in Europe. The council hopes the system will make London more self-sufficient (自给自足的) in energy, cut carbon emissions and reduce heating bills for people.Meanwhile, tube passengers on the underground can also expect cooler air.

District heating, also known as heat networks, is the supply of heat and hot water from a central source to a group of buildings. The Bunhill 2 district heating system is the second phase (阶段) of Islington Council’s Bunhill Heat and Power scheme-a heat network in Islington that was established in 2013 to warm approximately 700 homes.

The network currently channels heat created in the Bunhill Energy Centre power station into local council housing, schools and a leisure centre. Bunhill 2 will extend this network to more community buildings and a further 450 homes.

The central source of the Bunhill 2 heat network is a ventilation shaft (通风井)-a passage that is used to expel waste heat-in the abandoned (废弃的) City Road station. A heat pump designed by Ramboll will capture this extra heat from the ventilation shaft, before it is warmed to approximately 70 degrees Celsius. This will then be transferred (转移) into Islington’s heat network to supply heat and hot water to buildings.

According to the Greater London Authority, there is enough heat wasted in London to meet 38 per cent of the city’s heating demand. The expansion of district heating networks like Bunhill 2 could see this increase to 63 per cent by 2050.

“We believe that the use of large-scale heat in this way connected to urban district heating systems will play a major part in the Uk’s heating energy demand,” explained Lucy Padfield, director of District Heating at Ramboll.

“The use of heat pumps taking advantage of industrial waste heat sources is more carbon efficient than gas-fired combined heat and power, the usual source of heat for district energy schemes,” she continued. “I am convinced that with the increasing use of renewable power sources, large-scale heat pumps connected to district heating systems will play a major role in the future heating of cities in the UK.”

【1】What can we learn about Bunhill 2 in London?

A．It is inspired by other cities in Europe.

B．It will be beneficial to London’s environment.

C．It can satisfy the whole city’s need for energy.

D．It is aimed at cooling the London Underground.

【2】What does the underlined word “expel” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?

A．Rely on

B．Deal with.

C．Break down.

D．Drive out

【3】What is Lucy Padfield’s attitude towards Bunhill 2?

A．Concerned.

B．Confident

C．Amazed

D．Disapproving

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．London’s special way to protect the environment.

B．The development of London’s district heating network.

C．Using waste heat from the underground to warm homes.

D．Ways to deal with the London Underground’s waste heat.

28、The Beauties of the Stone Age

I have just come home after viewing some amazing works of art that were recently discovered in Church Hole Gave in Nottinghamshire. They are not drawings but etchings—shapes cut into the rock—and they describe different kinds of wild animals.

First of all, the number is great: there are 90 in all. Moreover, 58 of them are on the ceiling (天花板). This is quite unusual in cave art, according to Dr. Wilbur Samson of Central Midlands University. “Wall pictures are the usual way,” he says. “The Church Hole etchings are an artistic achievement. It was thought that ice-age hunters in this country were separated from those in central areas of Europe, but the Church Hole etchings proved that they were actually part of a way of living, thinking and seeing the world that had spread right across Europe.”

News of such exciting discoveries spreads quickly, and thanks to the Internet and mobile phones, a great many people have known about this discovery. However, an examination of the etchings last year failed to show the presence of them. The reason lay in the expectations of the researchers. They looked for the usual type of cave drawings, which show up best under direct light. So they used powerful torches (火炬), shining them straight onto the rock face. However, the Church Hole etchings are not drawings on the rocks, like the other cave ones. They are modifications of the rock itself and can’t be easily made out. They show up best when seen from a certain direction in the natural light of early morning.

Dr. Samson feels that the lighting factor provides important information about the function of these works of art. I think the artists knew very well that the etchings would hardly be seen except early in the morning. We can decide that the cave was used for important events like animal worship (祭拜), and that they were conducted just after dawn, as the beginning of the day’s hunting.

To which I can only add that I feel very lucky to have been able to view Church Hole. It is a site of great importance culturally and is part of the traditional values, not only of this country, but the world as a whole.

【1】What is the significance of the etchings in Church Hole Cave?

A.They show the existence of an ice-age culture.

B.They describe a more advanced life of Europeans.

C.They prove that ancient people hunted in large areas.

D.They indicate that fewer people settled in central Europe.

【2】According to the passage, ________.

A.the methods taken to protect the etchings are useless

B.the etchings are various from the usual cave paintings

C.the discovery of the etchings should not be made public

D.many people visited the cave within hours of its discovery

【3】What does the underlined word “modifications” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Small changes. B.Free gifts. C.Good examples. D.Different areas.

【4】What does Dr. Samson state from the lighting factor?

A.The search took place at the wrong place of the cave.

B.The artists never planned to let the etchings seen by others.

C.The torches people used in the examination were too bright.

D.The etchings were intended to be seen at a certain time of day.

29、   Here are some of the must-reads of this year.

Giraffe Problems by Jory John

Edward the giraffe feels very embarrassed about his super long neck. It's difficult to move, too bendy, and on the whole just too “necky”. With a delightful sense of humor and illustrations (插图) that run across the pages, this funny story of friendship and self-acceptance will be loved by kids.
