The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves about the 51 problem -how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well 52 no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus six buildings comfortable. Some parts of the buildings - theatres and offices 53 classrooms - are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned 54 in winter. The technique of 55 heat and redistributing it is 56 “Heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover _57_, but the universitys system is the first to recover heat 58 some buildings and reuse it in 59 . Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The 60 a student studies, the more heat his body 61 . Male students emit more heat than 62 students. And the larger a student, the more heat he 63 .

During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the day before. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles (肌肉) relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyes are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep! 66) A good title for this passage is _. A. Sleep B. Good Health C. Dreams D. Work and Rest 67) The underlined word “drowsy” in the last paragraph means _.

Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it. Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in a row. For perception is the minds interpretation of what his senses in this case our eyes tell us. Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene. 71) Seeing and perceiving are _.
