When a computer works on a group of programs, it can get very hot. Cooling the computer can cost a lot. So some scientists wonder what would happen if the heat from the computer could be used.
Large Internet companies (公司) such as Google and Microsoft have thousands of computers. As these computers deal with information, they produce lots of heat, so they need huge cooling systems (系统). These systems send the heat into the air.
A company in Holland (荷兰) thinks paying to make the computers work and then paying again to cool them are a waste of energy. So the company developed a special device—the e-Radiator.
Boaz Leupe, head of the company, says that e-Radiator works as a heating system and saves money. He explains that the energy is used twice—once to heat the home and once to cool the computer and that the users don’t have to pay to cool their computers.
Five homeowners in Holland are testing the heating system in their homes.
“We pay for the computer using, so, in that way, homeowners get heating for free,”Boaz says.
Jan Visser is one of the homeowners. “If you use the computer more, the e-Radiator producers more heat, ”he says, “It cannot provide enough heat if you don’t use your computer often.” But he is ready to try it. It’s a great help for his family.
The company says e-Radiators produce heat temperatures of up to 55℃. It says the system could save its users about $440 a year.
【1】Before the e-Radiator appears, usually the heat of a computer ______.
A. is sent into the air B. helps the five homeowners
C. is used twice D. makes the computer work better
【2】The e-radiator is mainly used _____.
A. to drive the computer B. to help Microsoft
C. to heat the computer D. to provide heat
【3】The Chinese meaning of the word “device” in this passage is probably “____”.

27、Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.
A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert (沙漠), so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest.
Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area.
Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet.
However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals.
【1】How can a certain kind of ants find their way?
A.By imagining the way.
B.By counting their steps.
C.By walking through a forest.
D.By bringing food home.
【2】What does the underlined word “mystery” in Paragraph 4 probably mean in Chinese?
A.奥秘
B.抉择
C.损害
D.心情
【3】What does the writer advise people to do in the last paragraph?
A.To help animals.
B.To travel at night.
C.To keep city lights on.
D.To develop unusual abilities.
【4】What’s the right structure of the passage (①=Paragraph 1)?
A.①②/③④⑤
B.①/②/③④⑤
C.①/②③④/⑤
D.①②③/④⑤
【5】Which can be the best title for the passage?
A.Animals’ Sense of Magnetic Field
B.Fish’s Sense of Smell
C.Birds’ Sense of Light
D.Animals’ Sense of Direction
28、 King Hiero asked the crown (皇冠)-maker to make him a gold crown. But when the king got the crown, he wondered i【1】 the crown was entirely (全部地) made of gold. Then the king s【2】 the crown to Archimedes, the best scientist in the kingdom.
Archimedes thought about the p【3】 while a servant (仆人) poured some water into a bath for him. Archimedes got in the bath and some water came out of it, onto the floor.

A b【5】 object will displace a lot of water. A small object will displace a l【6】 water.”
Archimedes went to the palace to weigh the crown. It w【7】 one kilogram. He put the crown in a pot of water. Five centimetres of water came out. He then put one kilogram of gold in a【8】 pot of water. Three centimetres of water came out of this pot. Archimedes said to King Hiero, “Silver made the crown bigger. That is why the crown displaces m【9】 water. So, the crown is not made entirely of gold; it is made of both gold and silver.”
King Hiero was very a【10】 when he heard this, and he sent the crown-maker to prison.
