Was the London Olympics a success? Many people hold different opinions. However one thing is certain, London could win a gold medal for hosting the “greenest” Games ever, BBC News reported.Previous Olympic hosts have been criticized for the environmental damage they have caud through construction, waste. and transport. But things had to be different in London becau ven years ago it bid for the Olympics through the concept of “a One Planet Olympics”.What is most impressive is that London ud the construction of the Olympic Park as an opportunity to clean up polluted areas — 2 million tons of contaminated (被污染的) soil were removed and 200 old factory buildings, were torn down, according to sustainablebusiness.com. But that’s not all —. 99 percent of the debris (废瓦砾) were reud to build the Olympic Park. For example, part of the Olympic Stadium’s roof is made from 2,500 tons of steel tubes recycled from old gas pipelines.As well as using recycled materials, all venues were built with green building techniques. The Olympic Stadium is the lightest one ever built, which minimized the amount of steel and concrete needed. Also, the handball field has lighting pipes on the roof that reduce electricity u by 40 percent, according to sustainablebusiness.com.The effort that London made to deal with waste also derves prai. Water ud for drinking and watering plants was from collected rainwater or recycled wastewater. In this way. about 30-40 percent less water was ud in total. Waste food packages were either recycled or procesd and turned into renewable energy.As one of the best connected places in Europe, London tried to solve traffic jams by encouraging the u of public transport. For example, it had trains deliver half of the building materials, instead of cars, which greatly reduced carbon emissions.The clean anti-doping (反兴奋剂) result also added to the greenness of the Games. The International Olympics Committee (IOC) said that the devices ud this time were the most accurate and advanced. only one athlete tested positive for a banned drug on the day of competing, which is why the IOC President, Jacques Rogge, has praid anti-doping efforts at the London Games.小题1:To make the Olympic Park green, London _______.A．recycled 2 million tons of contaminated soilB．removed 99 percent of the debris from the cityC．built the Olympic Stadium mostly with recycled materialsD．applied green building techniques to the construction work小题2:The underlined word “minimized” in the fourth paragraph probably meansA．incread as much as possibleB．reduced as much as possibleC．made good u ofD．took little notice小题3:What can we conclude from the article?A．The London Olympics cost less than the other Olympics ever held.B．London has possd the most advanced techniques to deal with waste.C．Public transport is made good u of in London during the Olympic games.D．The anti-doping result in the London Olympics turned out to be dissatisfactory.小题4:Which of the following best shows the structure of the text?小题5:What is the best title of the passage?A．How to deal with the anti-dopingB．How to u recycled materialsC．London’s green gamesD．London’s public transport 题型：未知难度：其他题型
