Instead of focusing on increasing the supply of energy, what if we focus on reducing demand? Can we start with ending the opendoor practice of streetfront shops? While cool air from these shops is refreshing to pedestrians, it carries a cost. Energy is used in the air conditioning process. So it must be possible to look for changes in regulations that would encourage more energysaving designs. For instance, if we fix ceiling fans, airconditioning homes could surely be avoided for part of the year. Ceiling fans use far less energy. They were in a year air conditioners could stay if ceiling fans were fixed. In homes built under the smallhouse policy in New Territories, the ceiling may be too low for ceiling fans. If the 9meter maximum building height regulation were relaxed, ceiling fans could be fixed to reduce energy use. Current thinking in sustainable building design and operation involves integrated(協(xié)調(diào)統(tǒng)一的) design, that is, bring together all parties to create a building with better performance that achieves energy reduction. For integrated design to succeed, all parties must e together and think beyond each person39。s circle of influence. Better solutions are impossible to avoid with integrated design. Buildings would no longer be engineered after the basic architecture was built. Positive project outes may include reduced airconditioning load, reduced power use for electric lighting, and a reduction in the amount of materials used. We need to ask if we are ready to look beyond our own small circles and seek an improved approach to building design. By that I mean an integrated design resulting in more sustainable buildings. （1）What39。s the author39。s attitude towards the opendoor practice of the street shops?

While cool air from these shops is refreshing to pedestrians, it carries a cost. Energy is used in the air conditioning ，作者認(rèn)為雖然這些商店的涼爽空氣給行人提神，但opendoor practice卻帶來了成本，在空調(diào)降低溫度過程中消耗了能量。可知是持不贊成的態(tài)度的。故答案選B項(xiàng)。（2）細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段if we fix ceiling fans, airconditioning homes could surely be avoided for part of the year. Ceiling fans use far less energy. 如果我們按裝吊扇，空調(diào)住宅一年中大部分時(shí)間可不用空調(diào)。吊扇使用的能量要少得多。由此可知建議安吊扇是因?yàn)槟軠p少能源的使用。故答案選B項(xiàng)。（3）推理判斷題。根據(jù)第5 段為了使集成設(shè)計(jì)成功，各方必須團(tuán)結(jié)起。找出更好的解決方案。這種恰當(dāng)?shù)恼_的設(shè)計(jì)結(jié)果，可以減少空調(diào)負(fù)荷，減少電力照明用電，減少使用材料的數(shù)量。（Positive project outes may include reduced airconditioning load, reduced power use for electric lighting, and a reduction in the amount of materials used. ）故答案C符合題意。故答案選C項(xiàng)。（4）主旨大意題。作者認(rèn)為商店開放空調(diào)導(dǎo)致能源的浪費(fèi)，所以倡導(dǎo)在住宅區(qū)安裝吊扇的節(jié)能環(huán)保的做法。這就需要要建筑房屋前統(tǒng)一的綜合的集成設(shè)計(jì)，才能有一個可持續(xù)的節(jié)約的環(huán)保綠色的建筑。因此本文最好的標(biāo)題是綠色建筑呼喚集成設(shè)計(jì)。故D項(xiàng)符合題意?！军c(diǎn)評】主旨大意閱讀理解題解題技巧：抓住文章段落大意，概括中心思想尋找整篇文章的中心思想的方法是建立在尋找具體段落中心的基礎(chǔ)上的。各段落中心句的整體歸納便是文章的中心思想。在這個過程中，考生們不能只依據(jù)只言片語、一枝一節(jié)，或光看文章的某一些段落，而應(yīng)該觀察全文的結(jié)構(gòu)安排；理解文章濃墨重筆寫的“重心”；考慮文章的組織材料及支撐性細(xì)節(jié)是服務(wù)于什么的；分析故事的發(fā)展結(jié)局都是圍繞什么內(nèi)容來表達(dá)中心的；最后用簡明扼要的文字將文章的中心思想表達(dá)出來。9．閱讀理解 The United States is home to 562 recognized American Indian Nations each with its own language. Yet the number of native. Americans with the ability to speak their tribe39。s language has decreased over the past century. Now, Indian Nations are trying different ways to expand the number of native speakers, and increase interest in their munities to learn tribal languages. Since the late 1800s many American Indian children have attended boarding schools. At that time, Indian children were required to attend schools by law, and the government forced Indian families to send their children to such schools. The children were separated from
