Imagine a house that keeps itself warm in the wintertime. Think of the savings in terms of fuel bills and unfriendly emissions. Such houses in fact exist, called “passive houses”. The concept of these highly energy-efficient buildings took root in the 1990s, before slowly consolidating as a niche construction (生態(tài)位構(gòu)建) concept in the 2000s. Are passive houses now actively moving into the mainstream as sustainable buildings?
For Brian McGarry, an economics lecturer who built a family house based on passive housing criteria in the Pyrenees this year, the arguments look convincing. As his first full winter in the low energy house draws in, we asked him to keep us informed. Do passive houses work?
I had never heard of a passive house in February 2012, when I purchased a plot of land. Nor did I expect that I would be persuaded to build a pre-constructed, custom-designed house based on energy-efficient passive house criteria. It promised to be easier and quicker to build, cheaper to run, and more comfortable to live in. The objective was to incorporate the fundamental concepts of passive energy management into my project: an airtight and highly insulated building envelope; large southfacing double or triple-glazed windows (if possible, filled with argon gas) that passively capture the energy of the sun; a heat recovery ventilation system to provide fresh air; and a simple, low-cost heating system consisting of a modern wood-burning stove, a bathroom heater and a portable radiator backup for when the sun doesn’t shine and temperatures decline. No significant
limitations were placed on the design, and it had excellent environmental credentials. Moreover, the cost was no more than a conventional build.
After six months in use, the house is proving to be both cheap to run and remarkably comfortable–staying cool in the hot summer was effortless, as long as the windows were shuttered or shaded from the sun. Nowstaying warm in the cold, high-altitude December climate also seems easy, so far.
Winter arrived in force in the Pyrenees in November, with abundant snowfalls and temperatures as low as minus 8° Celsius. Though early days, the house has responded well: the stove is lit during cold evenings but the portable radiator has not yet been needed. This type of construction seems not only to make economic andenvironmental sense, but to enhance our quality of life, too.
1.We can learn from Paragraph one that passive houses __________.
A. consume extra energy to keep warm in winter and cool in summer
B. had been introduced for a decade before the birth of the theory
C. appeal to both the self-builders and those constructors
D. refer to a certain house comfortable, costly and also pleasing
2.Regarding the passive energy management, the houses have characteristics EXCEPT _______
A. using south-facing windows to take in solar energy
B. Providing energy for taking a shower when it’s rainy
C. supplying fresh air with a special heat recovery system
D. placing more demands and restrictions on the design
3.How did Brian McGarry find his self-built passive house?
A. very unaffordable
B. Energy-consuming
C. comfortable to live in
D. Awkward to use
4.What is the writer’s attitude towards the passive housing?
A. supportive B. critical
C. oppositive D. doubtful

In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theatre in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theatre groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
1.What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?
A. To bring Europe together again.
B. To honor heroes of World War 11.
C. To introduce young theatre groups.
D. To attract great artists from Europe.
2.Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?
A. They owned a public house there.
B. They came to take up a challenge.

3.Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared?

This Way to Dreamland
Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. _1.__ They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.
But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __2._ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?
So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?
First, understand that some opportunities(機會) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. __3._ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.
It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. __4.__
Finally, you never know what w onderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.__ 5._ Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.
A. Having interesting things to think about also helps.
B. They stare off into space and wander by themselves.
C. Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relatively, Coke or Post-it notes.
D. At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.
E. It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.
F. Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.
G. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.

Alibaba started taking the lead in China by connecting big Chinese manufacturers(制造商) with big buyers across the world. Its business-to-business site, Alibaba.com allowed business to buy almost everything. Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to judge: size. Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards. Its market attracts 231 million active buyers, 8 million sellers, 11.3 billion orders a year — and Alibaba is just the middleman. It encourages people to use its markets — not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.
If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on daily Chinese life, take my experience. I moved to Beijing a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded, polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics, bathroom furnishings, and anything else my wife wanted. “You’re looking for what exactly? Why not try it? ” my Chinese teacher asked me one day. With that, my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began.
Alibaba’s original business-to-business model now is second to consumer buying. Chinese retail(零售) buying makes up 80% of Alibaba’s profit, and leading that group is Taobao, with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you’ll ever find. TMall.com is Alibaba’s other big site, where you can find brand name goods from Nike and Unilever near the lowest prices.
What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U.S. is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping — big-box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites. In smaller towns than Beijing, where big retailers have not yet traveled, shopping online is shopping, and shopping is Taobao.
I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how wide the marketplace is. Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping. I’m not even a big buyer, because I need friends to help me search the Chinese-language site. When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher’s iPad, which helps me buy goods, I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine.
1.Alibaba’s advantage mainly lies in .
A. its low price
B. its big size
C. its not charging small sellers
D. its business-to-business service
2.What can we learn from the underlined sentence in the passage?
A. Alibaba will continue to develop.
B. Alibaba stands out as the best online site.
C. Alibaba acts as a bridge between the buyers and sellers.
D. Alibaba is of middle size among all the online sites.
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A. TMall.com provides more profit than Taobao.
B.The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover.
C. Taobao has no obvious advantage over other similar online sites.
D. Alibaba’s business-to-business service earns more money than retail.
4.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Shopping online in China is TaoBao.
B. How the author purchases online in China.
C. Shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping.
D. Alibaba influences people’s daily purchase in China.

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining(請客) at home. They often invite friends over 1. a meal, a party, or just for coffee and conversation.
Here are the 2. (kind) of things people say when they invite someone to their home:
"Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?""Hey, we 3. (have) a party on Friday. Can you come?"
4. (reply) to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you're sorry and give an excuse:"Thanks, I'd love to. What time would you like me to come?" 5. "Oh, sorry. I've tickets for a movie."
Sometimes, 6. ,people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example:"Please come over for a drink sometime.""Why not get together for 7. party sometime?" "Why don't you come over and see us sometime soon?"
They are really just polite ways of 8. (end) a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific(確定的) time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be 9. (friend).To reply to expressions like these, people just say "Sure, that would be great!" or "OK. Yes, thanks."
So next time when you hear 10. sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?
