15.B試題分析：一般的建筑沒有空調(diào)空氣就不會流通，而在津巴布韋的首都哈拉雷的一個建筑卻利用當?shù)貢円箿夭畲蟮奶攸c，設(shè)計了自然的空氣循環(huán)系統(tǒng)，使得室內(nèi)的空氣不斷得到循環(huán)更新，還節(jié)省了空調(diào)費。12.B細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段TheEastgate’sownerssaved$3.5millionona$36millionbuildingbecauseanair-conditioningequipmentdidn’thavetobeimported.可知，哈拉雷的東街大廈比傳統(tǒng)的建筑省錢是因為沒有空調(diào)設(shè)備。故選B。13.A詞義推測題。前一句的意思是：風(fēng)扇從天井吸入新鮮空氣，通過樓層間的空間吹上樓梯，并通過通風(fēng)口進入各個辦公室，由此可知，這里的it是指新鮮的空氣，新鮮空氣在室內(nèi)上升變暖，通過天花板的通風(fēng)口進入48磚砌的煙道出去，故選A。14.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的Youcouldn’tdothisinNewYork,withitshotsummersandcoldwinters,可知，在紐約冬冷夏熱，而哈拉雷是白天熱晚上涼，所以這種系統(tǒng)在紐約行不通。故選D。15.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段withtheexceptionoftheannualhotperiodjustbeforethesummerrainsinOctoberandthreedaysinNovember,whenadoorkeeperaccidentallyswitchedoffthefansatnight.可知，該系統(tǒng)大部分時候是起到空調(diào)的作用的，只是偶爾有一些問題，故選B。19.Bobwasaclevercollegestudent,buthisfamilywaspoor,sohehadtoworkafterclassandduringhisholidaystogetenoughmoneyforhisstudies.Onesummerhegotajobinabutcher'sshop(肉店)duringthedaytime,andanotherinahospitalatnight.Intheshop,helearnedtocutandsellmeat.Hedidsowellthatthebutcherwentintoaroombehindtheshoptodoalltheaccounts(算賬).Inthehospital,ofcourse,Bobwastoldtodoonlytheeasiestjobs.Hehelpedtoliftpeopleandcarrythemfromonepartofthehospitaltoanother.Bothinthebutcher'sshopandinthehospital,Bobhadtowearwhiteclothes.Oneeveninginthehospita
