Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first step will be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings(环境)near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.

Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. The builder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets.The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate(预算)must be corrected and revised(修订). His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.

When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high!) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.

21. The best title of this passage is().

A. Building a House Costs Much Money

B. Estimate Is Important

C. Planning a House

22. The first thing for a person to build a house is().

A. to get as much money as possible

B. to find a suitable piece of land

C. to work out a plan

23. The phrase”draw a plan”in this passage means().

A. making a picture of a building or a room

B. making a plan

C. working out a plan

24. When the builder starts to build a house, his estimate will have to be corrected and revised because().

A. it is wrongly worked out by a workman

B. the future owner of the house thinks the estimate is so high that he cannot afford the building

C. the prices of building materials and the expenses(费用)of labor may be different from the original prices and expenses

25. What is the relationship(关系)between the estimate and the plan？

A. The plan depends on the estimate.

B. The plan has nothing to do with the estimate.

C. The estimate and the plan depend on each other.

Amphibious Architecture: Flood-Proof Home DesignsInstead of trying to beat back the rising

Amphibious Architecture: Flood-Proof Home Designs

Instead of trying to beat back the rising flood, innovative amphibious buildings can adapt to the rising flood. These buildings are ready for whatever Mother Nature might throw at them– even 10-foot floodwaters. Let's take a look at just two of them.

The UK's First Amphibious House

The UK's first amphibious house is located on the Thames River. And the first amphibious building in Britain will be completed soon. Baca Architects designed this home for a couple who wanted to live on a flood-prone island, an island easy to be attacked by floods, in the Thames River. This building is equipped with a terraced landscape. And this terraced landscape acts as an early warning system when the waters are rising. The terraces will be filled with water before the ‘wet dock’ under the house does, and then the home itself will slowly rise to stay above the water.

Solar Powered Floating School in Nigeria

Residents of Makoko in Nigeria have been building houses on stilts for generations. People there go from one house to another by canoe. As sea levels are rising, officials threaten to tear down the entire community. If these houses are tore down, 250,000 people will be homeless and have to look for a new place to live. Architects found a solution in floating structures with improved sanitation conditions. The first completed example is a three-storey solar-powered school.

This amazing floating school addresses social, physical and ecological needs. Built on top of 256 recycled blue barrels, the school buildings are made of triangular bamboo and wood. Makoko's residents made full use of their skills when building these structures. With three levels, the solar-powered high school has room for 100 local kids and recycles rainwater to flush the toilets. And the cost for the whole school structures was under $7,000.

1.Innovative amphibious buildings have adaptation to the rising flood.

2.The first amphibious building in Britain has been completed.

3.250,000 residents of Makoko in Nigeria will be homeless if officials tear down their houses.

4.The first completed floating school has three floors.

5.In the opinion of the writer, the cost for the floating school was quite high.

Iron production was revolutionized in the early eighteenth century when coke was first use
d instead of charcoal(木炭)for refining iron ore. Previously the poor quality of the iron had restricted its use in architecture to items such as chains and tie bars for supporting arches, vaults(拱顶), and walls. With the improvement in refining ore, it was now possible to make castiron beams and columns. During the nineteenth century further advances were made, notably Bessemer's process for converting iron into steel, which made tile material more commercially feasible.

Iron was rapidly adopted for the construction of bridges, because its strength was far greater than that of stone or timber, but its use in the architecture of buildings developed more slowly. By 1800 a complete internal iron skeleton for buildings had been developed in industrial architecture replacing traditional timber beams, but it generally remained concealed. Apart from its low cost, the appeal of iron as a building material lay in its strength, its resistance to fire, and its potential to span vast areas. As a result, iron became increasingly popular as a structural material for more traditional styles of architecture during the nineteenth century, but it was invariably concealed.

Significantly, the use of exposed iron occurred mainly in the new building types produced by the Industrial Revolution: in factories, warehouses, commercial offices, exhibition halls, and railroad stations, where its practical advantages far outweighed its lack of status. Designers of the railroad stations of the new age explored the potential of iron, covering huge areas with spans that surpassed the great vaults of medieval churches and cathedrals. Paxton's Crystal Palace, designed to house the Great Exhibition of 1851, covered an area of 1848 feet by 408 feet in assembled units of glass set in iron frames. The Paris Exhibition of 1889 included both the widest span and the greatest height achieved so far with the Halle des Machines, spanning 362 feet, and the Eiffel Tower 1,000 feet high. However, these achievements were mocked by the artists of Paris as expensive and ugly foolishness. Iron, despite its structural advantages, had little aesthetic(审美的)status. The use of an exposed iron structure in the more traditional styles of architecture was slower to develop.

What does the passage mainly discuss？

A．Advances in iron processing in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

B．The effects of the Industrial Revolution on traditional architectural styles.

C．Advantages of stone and timber over steel as building materials.

D．The evolution of the use of iron in architecture.

Parrots are becoming one of the most popular pets in America -- and for good reason. T
he parrot is an extraordinary bird that can be taught to talk, can be easily cared for, and can create a lively atmosphere anywhere. With the help of an energetic parrot owner, a parrot can develop an enormous vocabulary. In addition, a parrot can be trained to say "Pretty boy" or "Polly wants a cracker, " and it also can learn to whistle or sing. No matter what an owner decides to teach a bird, training a parrot takes much patience, but the reward is a stream of chatter. Another reason for the parrot's popularity is that this pet does not require much care. For example, even a spoiled parrot does not need a house sitter for the purpose of daily walks and daily feeding. In fact, a parrot owner may leave his or her pet with enough food for five days and have no fear that the parrot will overeat. Still another advantage of owning a parrot is its inexpensive food, including seeds, nuts, corn, and grain -- along with an apple, banana, or carrot. Perhaps the most likely reason the parrot is becoming such a well-liked pet is that it is a combination of tameness and wildness. Because the parrot can live in almost any environment, it makes a fine, tame companion for many people. In addition, because it can be easily trained, it is a delightful performer. At the same time, its colorful feathers give it an air of the mystery of the parrot's native home, the jungle. Thus, the parrot, once a highly valued gift presented to kings and noble families, is now appreciated by a growing number of people.

1.A parrot can be trained to do all the following but ____.

A、talk

B、help its owner

C、sing

D、create a lively atmosphere

2.Which of the following is NOT a reason for the easy raising of the parrot？ ____

A、It eats very little.

B、Its food is inexpensive.

C、It does not need a house sitter.

D、It does not require daily walks as dogs do.

3.The word "tameness" in the passage means ____.

A、the quality of being brave or unafraid

B、the quality of being kind or warm-hearted

C、the quality of being uncontrollable or fierce

D、the quality of being gentle or trained

4.The word "jungle" probably means ____.

A、boundless desert with very little plant life

B、large apartment building with pleasing surroundings

C、wild land overgrown with thick bushes and trees

D、snow-covered mountain top in very cold areas.

5.The writer ____.

A、likes the parrot

B、dislikes the parrot
