What is the news about? [br]
As you use computers, as you’re surfing the web, especially in large data centres, it generates a lot of heat. And right now, that heat is wasted. It actually just gets pulled away and goes out through the chimneys, etc. Well, our scientists are putting small channels actually into the chips that do the computing, taking that heat back and using heat pump technology to then heat a building or even cool a building. So the energy will be reclaimed. So computing will become a lot more energy efficient.
Britain’s relationship with the invigorating brew is much shorter, but the beverage nonetheless enjoys pride of place as the UK’s national drink. In fact the UK Tea Council claims Britons drink an average of three cups a day, or a staggering national total of 165m cups every day. With figures like these it is no surprise that time spent taking tea eats into the working day of the British labor force. A recent survey found that 24 minutes a day are lost to making, buying and drinking tea and coffee. This equates to £ 400 a year in lost man hours per employee, or 190 days over a lifetime.

B、Quite a lot of time is spent on tea in the UK.
C、Britons drink more coffee than tea.
答案

解析
新闻中说Time spent taking tea eats into the working day of the British labour force,之后又给出了最近的调查数据来证明英国人在喝茶上花的时间之多,故选B。
