A home energy checkup helps determine where your house is losing energy and money. When such problems are corrected your home will be more energy efficient. While a professional energy checkup provides a complete picture of your homes energy use, a diligent self assessment can also help you find small problem areas. First, make a list of obvious air leaks. Check for indoor air leaks, such as gaps along the edge of the flooring and joints of the walls and ceiling. Also check the leaks on the outside of your home, especially in areas where two different building materials meet. Finally remember to check other places for leaks including windows, doors and switches. The potential energy savings from reducing leaks in our own may range from 10% to 20% per year. This do-it-yourself home energy checkup will not be as thorough as a professional home energy assessment, but it can help you highlight some of the easier areas to address. When walking through your home, keep a checklist of the areas you have inspected and the problems you have found. This list will help you decide which energy efficiency upgrade should be given priority to. Now listen again11. Which of the following is the most probable way to save energy in a house?12. Why does the speaker recommend you to keep a check list?13. What is the speaker mainly talking about?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.Seamus Heaney was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1995 when he was teaching at Harvard University. On the day when Harvard celebrated its three hundred seventy-fifth anniversary before a large audience, he recited his poem composed in 1986 for the university three hundred and fiftieth anniversary. This 1986 poem relies on the power of repeating words and sounds. Heaney said in an interview, “Theres a kind of bell ringing quality to the poem, which makes it easy on the air.” He remembered writing just two poems during his early years at Harvard when he taught and read a lot. One poem is the anniversary poem. And the other is about learning the alphabets at a primary school. Heaney also recalled the physical Harvard where he had many happy moments. He said, “I still remember the excitement of driving around the campus and seeing the outlines of the houses. And I enjoyed a few quiet corners on campus where I would sit down and take a nap. The library at Adams house for one and the Woodbury poetry room for another. Then there was the yard. It was the inspiration for the anniversary poem and also a place that reminded me of my own boyhood in the countryside because it used to be a cow yard.”Now listen againQuestions:14.

Tracking Customers?Fluido, a Texas-based analytics company, recently released its new product, called FluidoPlus for free. It connects retailers (零售商) to a cloud-based analytics service using Wi-Fi. They then collect information about customer behaviour by monitoring the media access code (MAC) in every smart phone that enters the stores. This means that stores will be able to implement an analytics package to receive information that could help guide their marketing. With the information, store managers can measure the number of people who walk past the store and the number who come through the front door. Also, this information includes whether or not these people come in immediately or are convinced to do so by the shop front.FluidoPlus has received a lot of criticism from consumers concerned about their privacy being invaded. But Fluido assures that the MAC data is scrambled (打乱), which means that no personally identifiable information is collected. The company also points to the fact that Fluido is a part of the group that initiated the Mobile Location Analytics code of conduct. These sets of rules require companies to receive customers agreement before they can collect any personal information.Emily Carrless, a senior director at No Watching Please Co., believes that this technology ignores customers privacy. This is a clear example of profit outweighing privacy, she said. The use of tracking technology by shops in order to provide a better or more personalised service seems totally disproportionate. Carrless also stressed the importance of consumer awareness. She said that while the tracking technology was still developing, there was an obvious goal in mind to identify individuals. Companies like Fluido wont stop at general information like the number of customers who walk into stores. The long game is about identifying individuals, and this technology is very close to enabling Fluido to do that.V.TranslationDirections：Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 羽毛球馆空无一人， 灯怎么还亮着?
