4、Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to get rid of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus(校園)of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem – how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which uses not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.

Some parts of most modern buildings – theaters and offices as well as classrooms, are more sufficiently heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air – conditioned(使用空調(diào)的)even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing(再分配)it is called “heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from buildings and reuse it in others.

Along the way, Pittsburgh has learned a great deal about some of its producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students send out more heat that female students, and the larger a student is, the more heat he produces. We may conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard working overweight male genius(天才).

1.What is the characteristic of the buildings on Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh?

       A.They collect body heat to control the temperature inside.

       B.They are more comfortable to live in than other buildings.

       C.They use the light bulbs to heat the classroom.

       D.They use less fuel to keep the classroom cool.

    Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to get rid of it. But the designers of the Johnstown Campus of the University of Pitts burgh set themselves the opposite problem —— how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which makes use of not only body heat , but the heat given off by such objects as lights and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no traditional fuel is needed to make the six buildings on the university comfortable.

  Some parts of most modern buildings —— theaters and offices as well as classrooms —— are more than well heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and sending it out again is called “heat recovery”. A few modern buildings get back heat , but the university's system is the first to get back heat from some buildings and reuse it in others.

  The designers have learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies the more heat his body gives off. Boy students send out more heat than girl students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It seems that the hottest for the Johnstown Campus would be a hard-working, overweight and gifted boy student.
