But in Liuzhou, a city in southern China, attitudes could not be more different. The Liuzhou Municipality Urban Planning Bureau has signed up Italian architect Stefano Boeri, the father of the forest city movement, to build a selfcontained munity for up to 30, 000 people. He is the goto man for such projects thanks to the success of his vertical forests, two residential (住宅的) towers. Completed in 2014, they remove up to tons of soot (煤煙) from the air each year, and a year later one of them was named Best Tall Building Worldwide. The Liuzhou project is a much more ambitious undertaking, however. Its homes, hospitals, hotels, schools and offices will be built on a 340acre site in what Boeri calls the first attempt to create an urban environment that is really trying to find a balance with nature. Its 100 species of plant life are expected to absorb almost 10, 000 tons of carbon dioxide and 57 tons of pollutants per year, while at the same time producing 900 tons of lifegiving oxygen. Although the architects haven39。t published the cost of the forest city, the Milan towers cost only five percent more than traditional skyscrapers. The construction of his forest city at Liuzhou is set to begin in 2020, and there is still a great deal of planning and research required before a projected pletion date can be set. However, Boeri remains optimistic about the project and has confidence in the soundness of his vision: I really think that bringing forests into the city is a way to deal with global warming.（1）What39。s Liuzhou39。s attitude towards the sustainable development?

But in Liuzhou, a city in southern China, attitudes could not be more different.“可知，大多數(shù)城市反對，而柳州的態(tài)度卻截然不同。故選A。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“He is the goto man for such projects thanks to the success of his‘vertical forests’, two residential (住宅的) towers.”可知，由于他的“垂直森林”——兩座住宅樓的成功，他是此類項目的關(guān)鍵人物。從而推斷出，他在類似的項目中積累了經(jīng)驗。故選D。 （3）考查代詞指代。根據(jù)第二段中的“He is the goto man for such projects thanks to the success of his ‘vertical forests’, two residential (住宅的) towers.”可知，they指代前句中的two residential (住宅的) towers。故選B。 （4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Its homes, hospitals, hotels, schools and offices will be built on a 340ac
