An office tower on Miller Street in Manchester is completely covered in solar panels. They are used to create some of the energy used by the insurance company inside. When the tower was first【C1】______in 1962, it was covered with thin square stones. These small square stones became a problem for the building and continued to fall off the face for 40 years until a major renovation was【C2】______During this renovation the building’s owners, CIS,【C3】______the solar panel company, Solarcentury. They agreed to cover the entire building in solar panels. In 2004, the completed CIS tower became Europe’ s largest【C4】______of vertical solar panels. A vertical solar project on such a large【C5】______has never been repeated since.
Covering a skyscraper with solar panels had never been done before, and the CIS tower was chosen as one of the "10 best green energy projects". For a long time after this renovation project, it was the tallest building in the United Kingdom, but it was【C6】______overtaken by the Millbank Tower.
Green buildings like this aren’ t【C7】______cost-efficient for the investor, but it does produce much less pollution than that caused by energy【C8】______through fossil fuels. As solar panels get【C9】______, the world is likely to see more skyscrapers covered in solar panels, collecting energy much like trees do. Imagine a world where building the tallest skyscraper wasn’ t a race of【C10】______, but rather one to collect the most solar energy.
A) cheaper I) eventually
B) cleaner J) height
C) collection K) necessarily
D) competed L) production
E) constructed M) range
F) consulted N) scale
G) dimension O) undertaken
H) discovered [br] 【C10】
选项
答案
J
解析
空格前为介词of,空后无单词,故本空需要填入名词。结合句意可知,建造最高的摩天大楼并不是为了攀比高度,而是为了收集最多的太阳能。备选项中只有height(高度)与摩天大楼相呼应,符合句意,故答案为J。
