14、idn't feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. “Why don't you hire someone to do that for you? Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. “Why don't you hire a cook? Dad asked, giving her one of

44、times, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat, black surfaces. One way to do that is

45、 to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form o

46、f asphalt 柏油 roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The r

47、esult is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a

48、0;system of connected water pipes. Most of them run from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the

49、0;ground.When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At&#

50、160;a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer 蓄水層 into which several heat exchangers 交換器 have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchang

51、ers, warming the ground-water, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed

52、0;slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the plac

53、e up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.67. Which of the following is true according to the
