共用题干EcoDorm
Thoreau said education often made straight-cut ditches out of twisting small streams.But not at the EcoDorm,which houses 36 undergraduates and is the spiritual heart of Warren Willege,a liberal arts school of fewer than 1,000 students in Swannanoa,N.C.
In recent years,colleges like Warren Wilson took a leading role in the sustainability movement, which seeks to develop a durable human relationship with the environment.More than 600 US colleges and universities have signed up for a pledge to become carbon neutral.Ninety dorms are now LEED certified,the most widely accepted national standard for green design.The EcoDorm is one of only two student residences that have LEED's highest rating.
Two Warren Wilson students first proposed the dorm a decade ago.Undergraduates on the planning committee initially suggested that it be built with corncobs or straw. The design,by Asheville一based Samsel Architects, required compromises一as well as a number of creative solutions.The wood used for building the walls was harvested from campus trees that were suffering from a certain disease.The kitchen cabinets were made from recycled fence posts.Rainwater is collected into a disused railway tanker car and pumped back into the house to clean the low-flow toilets.Two toilets,which convert decaying organic matter to fertilizer,are also available on the second floor; students shovel(铲)in wood chips after they use them. The EcoDorm consumes nearly two-thirds less electricity than would a conventional building of the same size.
Margo Flood,the executive director of Warren Wilson's Environmental Leadership Center,says those who apply to live there"see an integration between their actions and their values".They pledge not to use hair dryers.Their music does not have its sound made louder electronically. The residents plant and harvest scores of fruits and vegetables in their garden.
The EcoDorm's residents speak of the comfort of finding a home where their values are shared. "I didn't have to worry about paper towels being wasted or feeling bad about drying my clothes out-side,"Jeremy Lekich,a senior who oversees the dorm's garden,says."Basically,it has made my life easier."Paragraph 4________A:The residents' integration between their actions and their values.B:The comfort of EcoDorm.C:How Ecodorm was built.D:How rainwater is collected to clean toilets.E:Colleges' leading role in sustainable development.F:The EcoDorm's consumption.
