10.In the US and Britain,the slogan around colleges was"Save water.Shower with a friend."Now,Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse.It charges students for the amount of time in a shower.Before entering the bathhouse,students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card.The clock starts ticking the minute and the tap is turned on.It pauses when a button is pressed for soap.An integrated circuit(IC) card reader at each tap shows the time.No money,no water.The benefits of the new sysem can be seen with the old system,which charged 1Yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower.The university used about 320tons of water daily under the old system,but only 160tons now.
Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided.Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race.Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower.Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and they're still covered in soap.They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
"It's a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,"said Ren,a freshman in Wuhan University.The university is also considering some students'suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower.Not surprisingly,some are complaining about losing the hour shower.But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
Without the time limits,most students tended to shower for 30to an hour in the bathhouse.Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes."In my experience,10-20minutes is enough,"said Dai Zhihua,a third-year student who usually takes 8minutes.
A similar system has been installed in other universities.Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September.The bathing fee thee is 0.2Yuan per minute.One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.

分析 本文是一篇說明文,文章主要講的是武漢大學(xué)為增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識而對洗澡采取的一種新措施:洗澡按時計費.學(xué)生們在洗澡前;用現(xiàn)金或?qū)W生身份證來支付想要洗澡時間的費用.學(xué)生對這種新體制的做法觀點是不一樣的.一些學(xué)生認(rèn)為這樣不舒服,洗澡像比賽一樣.有些學(xué)生抱怨這樣做也有弊端,用身份證不能買到額外的時間來洗澡,應(yīng)該在洗澡完后再付費才合理.但也有學(xué)生認(rèn)為這樣做法能幫助形成節(jié)約用水的理念.
解答 28-31 BADC
28題答案:B考查詞義猜測,根據(jù)后面的that you can not buy extra time on the ID card.(在ID卡上你無法買到額外的時間)可知橫線單詞意為"不足;缺陷",故本題答案為B選項.
29題答案:A考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)文章第一段的The university used about 320tons of water daily under the old system,but only 160tons now.(在舊的系統(tǒng)之下大學(xué)每天要使用大約320噸水,但是現(xiàn)在僅需要160噸)可知新的系統(tǒng)可以節(jié)約"一半"的水,故本題答案為A選項.
30題答案:D考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,根據(jù)第一段中的"In the US and Britain,the slogan around colleges was"Save water.Shower with a friend."Now,Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse."(在美國和英國,大學(xué)里的宣傳口號是"節(jié)約用水,與朋友一起淋浴".現(xiàn)在武漢大學(xué)已經(jīng)為大學(xué)浴室想出了另外的一套系統(tǒng))可知,大學(xué)這些做法都是為了增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識,故本題答案為D選項.
31題答案:C考查細(xì)節(jié)推理,縱觀全文可知,文章主要講的是大學(xué)就洗澡問題采取的新舉措.因此應(yīng)該是"校園生活"符合語境,故本題答案為C選項.
點評 本文是一篇社會文化類閱讀,題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題,做題時結(jié)合原文和題目有針對 性找出相關(guān)語句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析,結(jié)合選項選出正確答案.推理判斷也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確的答案.
