12、 noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn.

After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in t
13、he wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down.

Society for Economic Botany.CThe extraordinary Eastgate Building in Harare, Zimbabwes capital city, is said to be the only one in the world to use the same cooling and heating principles as the termite mound(
29、白蚁堆). Architect Mick Pearce used precisely the same strategy when designing the Eastgate Building, which has no air-conditioning and almost no heating. The buildingthe countrys largest commercial and shopping complexuses less than 10% of the energy of a conventional building of its size. The Eastgat
30、es owners saved $3.5 million on a $36 million building because an air-conditioning equipment didnt have to be imported.The complex is actually two buildings linked by bridges across a shady, glass-roofed atrium(天井) open to the air. Fans suck fresh air in from the atrium, blow it upstairs through hol
31、low spaces under the floors and from there into each office through baseboard vents(通风口). As it rises and warms, it is drawn out via ceiling vents and finally exists through forty-eight brick chimneys. During summers cool nights, big fans blow air through the building seven times an hour to cool the
32、 empty floors. By day, smaller fans blow two changes of air an hour through the building, to circulate the air which has been in contact with the cool floors. For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents. This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level, has cloudless s
33、kies, little dampness and rapid temperature changesdays as warm as 31 commonly drop to 14 at night. “You couldnt do this in New York, with its hot summers and cold winters,” Pearce said. The engineering firm of Ove Arup&Partners monitors daily temperatures. It is found that the temperature of the bu
34、ilding has generally stayed between 23 and 25, with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November, when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans at night. And the air is freshfar more so than in air-conditioned buildings, where up to

36、aph 3?A. Fresh air from outside.B. Heat in the building.C. Hollow space.D. Baseboard vent. 30. Why would a building like Eastgate Not work efficiently in New York?A. New York has less clear skies as Harare.B. Its dampness affects the circulation of air.C. New York covers a larger area than Harare.D.
37、 Its temperature changes seasonally rather than daily.31.

38、 and more time in the kitchen encouraged by celebrity (名人) chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver, according to a report from Oxford University.

40、, “The man in the kitchen is part of a much wider social trend. There has been 40 years of sexual equality, but there is another 40 years probably to come.”Women, who a generation ago spent nearly two hours a day cooking, now spend just one hour and seven minutesa great fall, but they still spend fa
41、r more time in the kitchen than men.Some experts have named these men in aprons as “Gastrosexuals (men using cooking skills to impress friends)”, who have been inspired to pick up a kitchen knife by the success of Ramsay, Oliver as well as other male celebrity chefs such as Hugh Fearnley-Whittingsta
42、ll, Marco Pierre White and Keith Floyd. “I was married in 1974. When my father came to visit me a few weeks later, I was wearing an apron when I opened the door. He laughed,” said Prof. Gershuny. “That would never happen now.”Two-thirds of adults say that they come together to share at least three t
43、imes a week, even if it is not necessarily around a kitchen or dining room table. Prof. Gershuny pointed out that the family meal was now rarely eaten by all of its members around a tablewith many “family meals” in fact taken on the sofa in the sitting room, and shared by family members. “The family
44、 meal has changed a lot, and few of us eatas I did when I was a childat least two meals a day together as a family. But it has survived in a different format.” 32.
