Every human being, no matter what he is

问题 Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite 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 that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus's six buildings comfortable.Some parts of most modern buildings－theaters and offices as well as classrooms are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is called “heat recovery.” A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University's system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and reuse it in others.Along the way, pit has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat the produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hardworking, overweight male genius.The phrase “even in winter”（in line 8）most nearly means ____.（　　）A. if the winter is especially B. during all of the year except the winter C. in the winter as well as in other seasons D. during the evenings in the winter
选项 A. if the winter is especially
B. during all of the year except the winter
C. in the winter as well as in other seasons
D. during the evenings in the winter
答案 C
解析 由文章第二段中的内容可知，大多数现代化的大楼有些部分——戏院、办公室以及教室是用人体和灯光的热来供热的，有时候甚至在冬天的空调也是由它们来供热。even意为“甚至”。
