It lies on the roofs (屋顶) of industrial and office buildings in the city of Malmo in Sweden.Green roofs are not a new invention. And now they are getting popular again. The common roofs of a modern city have endless black surfaces with no life or water. Perhaps thats why a garden on a roof becomes such a perfect choice for more and more people.Green roofs are not just pretty. They also help to moderate the city temperature. The high temperatures on common roofs in the summer can make top floor flats uncomfortably hot. What is more, they play a part in making the cities hotter than the countryside around them, causing the “urban heat-island effect”. On a green roof, however, with its plants and water, temperatures change only a little, as they do in a park. Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool. Green roofs take in rain water and protect the city drainage (排水) system. They can reduce water runoff into streets and storm water systems. This can greatly cut the costs of heating and cooling in the building below.Also, _. Small animals and birds can make their homes on it. Thanks to this, the city may become part of nature, rather than something completely separate from it. Though they wont directly replace ground environments, theyre perfect for attracting birds and other wildlife to create a eco-friendly habitat (栖息地).A green roof helps to improve the overall air quality, too. According to a study, green roofs help reduce (减少) up to:37% of sulfur dioxide21% of nitrous acid0.2kg of dust particles / square meter each yearWhile the cost of building such a roof can still be higher, it can be cheaper in the long term as a result of energy savings. And wouldnt it be wonderful to be able to walk out into a garden high above the citys noise and traffic, whether youre at school or in an office or just at home in a ten-floor block?37 . With the example of Augustenborg Botanical Garden, the writer wants to explain _.Ahow wildlife is protectedBwhat a green roof is likeChow to organize a good parkDwhat to do with a spare roof38 . The word “moderate” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”.AraiseBcheckCrecordDcontrol39 . Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 4?Aa green roof is aliveBa green roof protects animalsCa green roof is perfectDa green roof helps the environment四、用所给单词的正确形式填空Complete the sentences with the given words in their proper forms.（用括号中所给单词的适当形式填空,每空限填一词）40 .

When parents say to those children“Just look at the paper”, they will pick it up.Some parents think childhood is just for playing, so they dont ask their children to do chores. Other parents say, “I know it s wrong, but it s quicker to do it by myself!”But most parents believe that doing chores is a way of teaching kids responsibility（责任）. Children learn to help, share and care about others by doing chores.
