dont open.It could be a power failure or an equipment failure.But getting out isnt easy.Elevators are equipped with lots of features(特征)to keep the doors from opening freely or when theyre between floors.“What youll usually see is that the fire department,or sometimes the building worker will come and use some ways to get the people out while the problem is being worked on.”says Robert Solomon,the director of building and fire protection systems for the National Fire Protection Association.Thats where those small holes come in.Opening the doors requires a special tool.It is pushed into the door to release the landing door.Since the fire department began requiring them in the 1970s,manufacturers such as Otis and Schindler have equipped their elevators with them.The keys are usually held by a special number of people,such as an elevator worker or building assistant in charge.The fire department also requires that special access tools for each building be kept in a secure location such as a Knox Box that firefighters can open.“Fortunately,its rare that using the keys is necessary.”Solomon says.28.Why are elevators fixed with special features

trapped elevator D.The real reason elevators have those small holes D A common argument for expanding renewable energy sources is that technologies such as solar panels(太阳板)release far less carbon dioxide than power plants(发电厂)that burn oil.Only about 3 percent of the Earths water is freshwater,most of which is frozenThat means only percent of the planets water can be served for human use.Water is a necessary,but limited product.And nearly 1 billion people worldwide lack of fresh water.In the.,percent of the freshwater is used to cool off thermoelectric(热电)power plants:nuclear reactors and plants that burn oil.To provide electricity for an average home,a nuclear power plant requires 615 gallons of cooling water a day,a coal-fired plant,199 gallons per day,and

electricity.Nuclear reactors are the highest,at 13,000 gallons.Then comes coal,natural gas.The water needed by solar panels is lower.These numbers only reflect operations to make electricity;they do not include water used to get the fuel or make the power.For example,fracking(水力压裂)can use hundreds of thousands of gallons each time to make a rock cracked to release natural gas.Large quantities of water becomes vapor.The rest is sent back to the environment,but some of that is fixed with chemicals,and most of it is hot,which can kill fish and other living things.Natural gas,coal and nuclear power plants ranked one,two and three in 2016,according to the total amount of.electricity made in a year.And natural gas is projected to become even more important through 2050.To protect fresh water,it seems clear that the country should change toward renewables.This would make more freshwater for food production and human use.uses the most water to make electricity A.Coal-fired plant.B.A natural gas power plant.C.Solar panels.D.A nuclear power plant.what purpose does the author provide so many numbers A.To provide proof to scientists.B.To state the fact of making electricity.C.To tell readers to treasure freshwater.D.To prove that non-renewable energy uses much more water.suggestion does the author make in the passage A.Fresh water should be protected.B.Renewable energy should be put into use.C.Non-renewable energy should use less water.D.People should save fresh water.35.What is the main idea of the text A.Non-renewable energy pollutes environment.B.Renewable energy saves

soup.And a can opener is the tool that we use to open the cans easily.The idea of canning food originally began with glass cans.Peter Durand invented the first tin cans for preserving food in the 1800s.At that time,these first cans were developed for the British Navy.However,they were difficult to open.37 The instructions for opening the cans said,“Open with hammer and chisel.”Thinner tin cans were developed around 1860.In 1858,Ezra Warner developed the first version of the can opener.It worked like a bayonet(刺刀)and sickle(小镰刀).The“bayonet”pierced the can,and the sickle lifted the lid up by turning it.This can opener was only available at the store at that time.38 The first can opener consisting of a sharp rotating cutting wheel was invented in 1870.39 Then,a breakthrough design came in 1925 when a second serrated wheel(锯齿轮)was added to hold the cutting wheel on the ring of the can.This easy-to-use design has become one of the most popular can opener models.40 Now many people have electric can openers which make it much easier to open the can,and you dont have to turn it yourself.However,it is a good idea to keep a can opener that is not electric in your house.A.It is impossible for the ordinary people to own one.B.Cans would be opened before the customer left the store.C.Over the years,the can opener has been improved greatly.D.They were made of iron and weighed more than the food inside.E.This is because most of us have some canned food at our homes.穷则独善其身,达则兼善天下。孟子丹青不知老将至,贫贱于我如浮云。杜甫F.But it was considered too difficult for the ordinary consumers to
