66、 them with greener versions.37Whats more,it would take an average of 65 years for the reduced carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one.38But there is an unavoidable fact that nearly half of U.S.carbon emissions come from heating,coo

67、ling and powering those aged houses.“You cant deal with the climate change without dealing with existing buildings,” says Richard Moe,the president of the National Trust.With some exceptions,the oldest homes tend to be the least energy-efficient.39Houses built before 1939 use about 50% more energy p

70、 is the cracks that expand over time and let outside air in.答案与解析【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。美国现有超过1亿套住房,大量的能源和资源被用于建造这些房屋,而一个节能的新房子所减少的碳排放平均需要65年才能弥补因拆除旧房子而损失的资源。所以有些人说最环保的方法是维护旧的。文章分析了这些老房子不节能的原因以及解决方案。36.B根据上文“When it comes to green buildings,we tend to think of new onesthe kind of high-tech,solar-paneled mast

71、erpieces that make the covers of architecture magazines.”可知,本句与上文发生转折,表明与那些高科技的新建筑不同的是,美国目前有超过1亿套住房。后文中they可对应到B选项中“100 million existing homes”。故B选项“但美国现有超过1亿套住房”符合上下文语境。故选B项。37.F根据上文“And it would be incredibly wasteful to tear them all down and replace them with greener versions.”可知如果把它们都拆了,换成更环保的,

72、那就太浪费了。由此可知,本句应当说明这些房屋所投入的大量能源和资源,不应当直接拆除换成更环保的。故F选项“大量的能源和资源被用于建造这些房屋”符合上下文语境。故选F项。38.D根据上文“Whats more,it would take an average of 65 years for the reduced carbon emissions from a new energy-efficient home to make up for the resources lost by destroying an old one.”可知,有些人会认为最环保的方法就是维护这些旧的房子。故D选项“所以

73、有些人说最环保的方法是维护旧的”符合上下文语境。故选D项。39.G根据上文“With some exceptions,the oldest homes tend to be the least energy-efficient.”可知除了一些例外,最古老的房子往往是最不节能的。由此可知,本句应当承接上文说明老房子不节能的原因。故G选项“主要原因是随着时间的推移,裂缝会扩大,让外面的空气进来”符合上下文语境。故选G项。40.E根据后文“Historic ones like Lincolns Cottage can be transformed through efficiency upgrade

74、s.”可知像林肯小屋这样的历史建筑可以通过提高能效来改造。由此可知,本段是在说明对这些旧房子的解决方案,即通过一些改变来让这些老房子变得更加环保节能,故E选项“幸运的是,一些相对简单的改变就可以绿化老房子”符合上下文语境。故选E项。第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A 、B、 C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The family of Chuck Rees,his wife Laurie,and his mother-in-law Ann Effert had just finished lunch at
