第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。
A
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 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 eat given off by such objects as light bulbs(灯泡)and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no fuel is needed to make the campus' six buildings comfortable.

Some parts of most modern buildings—theaters and offices as well as classrooms—are more than sufficiently(足够)heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is calledheat 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, Pitt 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 than female students and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working over weight male genius(天才).

56. Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campus? The heat is supplied by________.
A. human bodies, other heat sending objects, and fuel
B. both human bodies and other heat sending objects
C. both human bodies and fuel
D. human bodies
57. The technique of heat recovery is used________.
A. to produce a special form of air-conditioning
B. to provide heat for the hot water system
C. to find out the source of heat
D. to collect and reuse heat
58. Which of the following persons would produce the least amount of heat?
A. A thin male who studies hard.
B. A fat female who studies hard.
C. A fat male who does not study hard.
D. A thin female who does not study hard.
59. A good title for the passage would be_______.
A. MODERN BUILDING'S HEAT SYSTEM
B. A NEW HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM IN PITTSBURGH
C. A STRANGE OBJECT IN HEATING SYSTEM
D. RECOVERY OF BODY'S HEAT

B
Ancient people made clay pottery because they needed it for their survival. They used the pots they make for cooking, storing food, and carrying things from place to place. Pottery was so important to early cultures that scientists now study it to learn more about ancient civilizations. The more advanced the pottery in terms of decoration, materials, glazes, and manufacture, the more advanced the culture itself.

The artisan who makes pottery in North America today utilizes his or her skill and imagination to create items that are beautiful as well as functional, transforming something ordinary into something special and unique.

The potter uses one of the Earth's most basic materials, clay. Clay can be found almost anywhere. Good pottery clay must be free from all small stones and other hard materials that would make the potting process difficult. Most North American artisan potters now purchase commercially processed clay, but some find the clay they need right in the earth, close to where they work.
The most important tools potters use are their own hands; however, they also use wire loop tools, wooden modeling tools, plain wire, and sponges. Plain wire is used to cut away the finished pot from its vase on the potter's wheel.

After a finished pot is dried of all its moisture in the open air, it placed in a kiln and fired. The first firing hardens the pottery, and it is then ready to be glazed and fired again.
For areas where they do not want any glaze, such as the bottom of the pot, artisans paint on melted wax that will later burn off in the kiln. They then pour on the liquid glaze and let it run over the clay surface, making any kind of decorative pattern that they want.

60. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Different kinds of clay.
B. The training of an artisan.
C. The making of pottery.
D. Crafts of ancient civilizations.
61. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a way that ancient people used pottery?
A. To hold food. B. To wash clothes. C. To cook. D. To transport objects.
62. According to the author, what do potters use to remove the pot from the wheel?
A. Melted wax. B. A wire loop. C. A sponge. D. Plain wire.
63. The wordpatternin the last sentence is closest in meaning to which of the following?
A. Model. B. Color. C. Puzzle. D. Design.
