23、 On March 25, 2010, Kate and David Ogg heard the words every parent fears: Their newborn wasn’t going to make it. Their twins—a girl and a boy—were born 14 weeks premature (早产的) , weighing just over two pounds each. Doctors had tried to save the boy for 20 minutes but saw no improvement. His heartbeat was nearly gone， and he’d stopped breathing. The baby had just moments to live.
“I saw him gasp, but the doctor said it was no use,” Kate said. “I know it sounds stupid, but if he was still gasping, that was a sign of life. I wasn’t going to give up easily.”
Still, the couple knew this was likely goodbye. In an effort to cherish her last minutes with the tiny boy, Kate asked to hold him.
“I wanted to meet him, and for him to know us,” Kate said. “We’d accepted the fact that we were going to lose him, and we were just trying to make the most of those last, precious moments.”
Kate unwrapped ( 解 开 ) the boy, whom the couple had already named Jamie, from his hospital blanket and ordered David to take his shirt off and join them in bed. The first-time parents wanted their son to be as warm as possible and hoped the skin-to-skin contact would improve his condition. They also talked to him.
“We were trying to have him,” Kate said. “We explained his name and that he had a twin and how hard we had tried to have him.”
Then something miraculous happened. Jamie gasped again, and then he started breathing. Finally, he reached for his father’s finger. The couple’s lost boy had made it.
Eight years later, Jamie and his sister, Emily, are happy and healthy.

24、 The UK’s first fully solar-powered home, which removes the need to ever receive a gas or electricity bill again, has gone on sale, but it will cost you £1.2 million.
The timber-framed home in Great Glen, Leicestershire, contains a number of “zero-carbon features” including solar electric energy, triple glazing and rainwater storage. It is entirely heated by underground water-filled tubes that are warmed by solar energy from rooftop panels. The house was designed and built by Caplin Homes and covers two acres of land. The design and construction, down to the materials, were used specifically for their low carbon footprint.
The solar panels on the roof of the five-bedroom house are called hybrids because they collect both electrical and thermal energy. Solar walls preheat incoming air, and an Earth Energy Bank (EEB) and heat pump can store heat, and get it back for use when temperatures drop. The south-facing triple-glazed windows are said to also improve the house’s energy management during the winter.
All the technologies are regulated by a control system, which monitors the inside and outside temperatures, how much energy is being received by the solar panels, and the heat levels in the EEB domestic hot water tank. Due to its low energy design, the Solar House is expected to only require heat from the EEB for about 10 weeks of the year.
For £1.2 million, buyers also get two garages. Estate agent (房地产经纪人) Anthony Fox said the possibility of no utility bills was a big draw for potential owners: the idea is that your bills pretty much disappear and the house is self-sustaining and self-sufficient. That was a big aspect for most of the people who came to have a look around. “We had a lot of interest on the open day. There were some strong considerations to buy there and then. Everyone was very keen to learn how the house worked.” He added.
【1】Which is true about the UK’s first fully solar-powered home?
A.It is directly heated by rooftop panels.
B.It has a set of heat-storage devices available.
C.Its walls can keep cold air from coming in to store heat.
D.The triple-glazed windows collect electrical and thermal energy.
【2】What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4?
A.The monitoring of the temperature.
B.The function of the control system.
C.The amount of the received energy.
D.The significance of the new technologies.
【3】What’s a big attraction for potential buyers according to Anthony Fox?
A.No gas or electricity bill. B.Two additional garages.
C.The reasonable price. D.The unique structure.
