(2016·齐鲁名校高三第一次联考)
These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint.Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses，factories，and offices.
Green building means“reducing the effect of the building on the land”，Taryn Holowka of the U．S. Green Building Council (评议会) in Washington，D.C.，said.According to Holowka，building accounts for 65 percent of total U．S. electricity use.
But green buildings can reduce energy and water use.Also，the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways，so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment，because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land，so that the buildings don’t destroy forests.
Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that puts these ideas into action.The Solaire has been called the country’s first green highrise building.According to Dettling，“We’ve reduced our energy use by onethird and our water by 50 percent.”
The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power.“On the face of the building we have solar panels (光板) which change the sun’s energy into electricity，”Dettling explained.
The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room.In addition，the building has lots of windows，allowing people to use the sun for light during the day.The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.
Not everyone is eager to move into a green building，however.Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources.Anyhow，Holowka said，“It’s going to be big.”

With rising gas prices，it’s no wonder the search for gasoline alternatives(替代品) has suddenly taken on a new urgency.One of the laboratories—a high school in Brooklyn—is where students are using cooking oil to run their experimental engine.And as Education reporter Art McFarland discovered，it appears to be working.
Students at Automotive High School have taken a gas alternative lesson a step further.They have perfected a project that runs this car’s engine，with used cooking oil.
Lamar Taylor，“I think it’s a great project because it’s better for the environment.”
Vehicles that run on alternative fuels are part of a cutting edge technology.The Automotive High Project began after a dieselpowered Mercedes was donated to the school two years ago.
Thomas Cassino，mechanics teacher，“The original diesel engine...was actually produced to run on vegetable oil and whale oil.”
The oil running the engine was collected from the school cafeteria and from restaurants，then placed into a converter，which heats it up while the engine starts using the diesel fuel.With the flip(轻击) of a switch，the engine is cooking with oil，though collecting it can have drawbacks.
Melissa Silberman，principal，“Once they started running the car，they didn’t want to eat in the cafeteria any more because what the French fries(炸薯条) were cooked in weren’t so attractive if it can run a car.”
And it has its advantages.Curtis Giscombe，student，“It smells like the back of McDonalds...It smells like French fries.”
The students are not likely to influence the more widespread use of alternative fuels，but if the day comes when lots more cars are running on cooking oil，the students will be prepared to service them.
