Most people make treehouses using a pile of wood, a hammer, and some nails. Mitchell Joachim, an architect from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has a(n) _36_ vision. He pictures a day when homes will be created from __37__.
Joachim's vision ___38__ an idea called pleaching (編織), where tree branches are grown so that they __39__ weave together. Since the growth patterns of trees are _40_ by wind and sunlight, it may be __41_ to control the way a tree develops.
These Fabricated Tree House Habitats would use trees grown into shapes as housing. One of the __42_ of these designs is that trees would not have to be cut down __43_.
"A 100 percent treehouse would take _44_ to create," Joachim said.__45_ the climate, a house could take anywhere from 5 to 30 years to grow. Fortunately, there's a way to __46_ the process. Joachim suggests including __47_ materials such as sod (草皮), grasses and living branches in the housing designs. "This material would be able to move __48_ the house grows," Joachim said.
A home would become an actual ecosystem, a community of plants, animals, and bacteria working together. The trees would also give off water vapor that would assist in _49__ the homes. Solar panels and wind would help provide _50__. The tree homes might even have soil pockets, __51_ plants could grow from the structure itself.
Work has already __52_ on Joachim's first design—a house made from 50 percent recycled and 50 percent living things. Joachim is confident about the __53__ of his work, as he uses natural products _54_ nature.
"The environment and its study are very important. We need to respect nature, don’t _55_," he said.

隨著人們環(huán)保意識的增長,保護大自然,愛護大自然已經(jīng)成為人們的共識。最近美國建筑家設(shè)計了一種更環(huán)保的建筑方式,讓活生生的樹自然長成一座房子。
36. D 由下文可知,Joachim的主意與上面提到的不同。
37. A 由下文意義可知,這座房子是由活生生的樹建成的。
38. C Joachim主意是建立在“將樹枝編織在一起這種想法”上。用be based on表示“建立在……的基礎(chǔ)上”。
39. B 由上文的pleaching,樹枝在成長的過程中,“自然”編織在一起。
40. B 植物的生長受風(fēng)和陽光的“影響”。
41. A 有可能控制樹林生長的方式。
42. D 由上文“將樹木自然長成房子的形狀”,顯然是指這種設(shè)計的優(yōu)點。
43. B 這種設(shè)計的優(yōu)點是不用將樹砍倒來取木材,at ease“自由自在”。
44. D 由下文from 5 to 30 years to grow可知,此處意為“一座100%的活樹房子要很多年才能建成”。
45. A 依靠自然的氣候的條件,要5 到30年才能長出一座房子來。
46. A 由句中的副詞Fortunately可知,有辦法“加快”房子修建的進程。
47. C 由下文例出的材料sod, grasses and living branches判斷,此處應(yīng)為“生態(tài)材料”。
48. B 此處為時間狀語從句,意為:在生長的過程中,這些材料能夠動。
49. C 由上文“發(fā)出水蒸氣”,自然可得出“使房子涼爽”。
50. B 根據(jù)主語“太陽能帆板和風(fēng)”的功能推斷,是給房子提供能源。
51. A 此處是非限制性定語從句,先行詞soil pockets表示地點,所以用where。
52. D 由上下文可知,此項工程已經(jīng)開始。并非“完成、控制或停止”。
53. D 由下文他說的The environment and its study are very important可知,此處表示“他深信他工作的重要性”。
54. B 他使用的是不破壞自然的天然材料。D項coming from與natural products的意義重復(fù)。
55. C 由上文的“尊重大自然”(respect nature),可得出“想當(dāng)然,漠不關(guān)心”。think we are it 自鳴不凡;do it ourselves自作主張;put it like this解釋。

Hill enrolled(注冊) in a wig-making 28 in New York.Back home with what she learned, she started making wigs that she planned to 29 for $300 each.
But many of her customers with alopecia and cancer couldn’t 30 that much, and their health insurance often didn’t 31 the cost.So Hill started giving the wigs away, eventually spending $10,000 of her own money.Last year, she and her friend Lita Warren 32 Pink Barrette, a non-profit organization that has 33 about 60 wigs to poor women.
Hill pays 34 the donations with profits from her other products. 35 , she and her husband have also spent much of their savings keeping the organization running.
Hill’s customers can’t thank her enough.Elyssa Montoya was too 36 to be seen in public with her 37 thinning hair.“I didn’t feel I could show my bald head outside.Thanks to Mika, I now have beautiful hair, and feel 38 about myself again.”
“Seeing their self-confidence 39 after they try on their wigs,” says Hill, “brings 40 to my eyes.This is a job for me, and a most rewarding one.”
