    12．In its first ever National Building Competition，the U．S．Environmental Protection Agency （EPA） challenged the teams from across the nation to cut wasteful energy use in buildings where they live and work．Family and commercial ladings together consume 40 percent of U．S．energy and the Obama Administration is eager to show how that load can be reduced．
    In recent remarks at a university．President Barack Obama promoted a plan that could help commercial buildings achieve greater energy efficiency （效率）．
    "Making our buildings more energy-efficient is one of the fastest，easiest and cheapest ways to save money，fight against pollution and create jobs right here in the United States of America，"he said．He also inspected the research labs where scientists are working on new technologies designed to cut energy waste in commercial buildings．
    Stores like the Sears department store in Maryland，which took second prize in the contest，are already using some of those technologies．As part of the store's bid to cut its energy use，every one of the building's 24 rooftop AC （交流电） units was checked and repaired．Every light bulb-all 15，000 of them-was replaced with a more efficient one．And sensors were installed （安装）to shut lights off in offices and storerooms when no one is around．Taken together these changes helped the Sears store reduce its building energy consumption by more than one-third and cut electric bills by $ 46，000．
    Office buildings can also achieve impressive energy savings．The tenants of a 12-story building in Virginia managed to cut the building's energy consumption by 28 percent as part of the EPA competition．
    "Whether it's an office building or a department store，a school or church，the EPA energy challenge showed that there's always room for improvement"，says Jennifer Amann with the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy，

    13．When I was just 16，my father decided to turn an old guesthouse into a hotel，and he experimented with everything．None of us had ever worked in a hotel before，but my dad was sure of what guests would like to see．
    For a month that summer，I served as a waitress at breakfast and dinner，which gave me the middle of the day free for studying．Like all the others，I did what the instructions said and treated the guests as though they were special visitors in my own home．
    I soon learned how to deal with the most daunting person in the kitchen：the cook，Gordon．He had a great ability to become very angry for no clear reason．I avoided him as much as possible and always took the dishes with a frozen expression on my face which was turned into a sweet smile in the space between kitchen and dining room．
    Breakfast waitressing was，I found，more enjoyable than the dinner service．The guests came wandering into the dining room，looking with appreciation at the view of the sea and islands through the dining room window．It was funny how differently people behaved in the evenings，dressed up and talking with louder，colder voices，not always returning my smile．However，that all changed when dad created a special role for me．
    It began with a few common cakes for the guests'packed lunches and progressed to fancy cakes for afternoon teas．This led to the climax：a nightly show known as Lucy's Sweet Trolley．Every evening，I carried the most amazing collection of cakes and other desserts．Most were things I had invented myself and I had cooked all of them．Some-Jacobit Grenades，Mocha Genghis Khan and Goat's Milk Bavarios to name a few-were really strange．It was dad's idea that I should dress smartly and stop at each table and recite the name of each dish．
    21．What did the people working at the hotel have in common？D
    A．They all understood the guests'expectations．
    B．They all studied at the middle of the day．
    C．they all had enough experience．
    D．They all followed the rules．
    22．What does the underlined word"daunting"in Paragraph 3mean？D
    A．CarefulB．NervousC．InterestingD．Frightening
    23．Why did Lucy enjoy serving breakfasts more than dinners？A
    A．The guests were friendlier．
    B．There were more types of food to satisfy the guests．
    C．The dining room was quieter．
    D．The guests dressed up for the beginning of a new day．
    24．What was special about the food on Lucy's Sweet Trolley？B
    A．It was based on traditional dishes．
    B．It contained a number of new creations．
    C．It was made following her father's instructions．
    D．It was prepared along with the food for lunches．
