Skyscrapers are also enormous【C3】______, and wasters, of electric power. In one recent year, the addition【C4】______17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City raised the【C5】______daily demand for electricity by 120,000 kilowatts—enough to【C6】______the entire city of Albany for a day. Glass-walled skyscraper can be especially【C7】______. The heat loss (or gain) through a wall of half-inch plate glass is more than ten times【C8】______through a typical masonry wall filled with insulation board. To lessen the strain【C9】______heating and air-conditioning equipment, 【C10】______of skyscrapers have begun to use double-glazed panels of glass, and reflective glasses【C11】______with silver or gold mirror films that reduce【C12】______as well as heat gain.
However, 【C13】______skyscrapers raise the temperature of the surrounding air and【C14】______neighboring buildings. Skyscrapers put severe pressure on a city’s sanitation【C15】______, too. If fully occupied, the two World Trade Center towers in New York City would alone generate 2. 15 million gallons of raw sewage each year—as【C16】______as a city the size of Stamford, Connecticut, which has a【C17】______of more than 109, 000. Skyscrapers also【C18】______with television reception, block bird flyways, and obstruct air traffic.

【C9】

B、between
C、on
D、both
答案
C
解析
该题考查惯用搭配。可以本题所在句译为:为减少对供热和空调设备的压力,摩天大楼的建筑者开始使用双层玻璃板和贴着一层银色或金色薄膜的反光玻璃,这种玻璃能够减少强光照射和热量的吸收。分析上文:因为玻璃墙体的摩天大楼散热很快,并且不易供热,所以需减轻对供热和空调设备的压力。只有C在搭配和词义上合适,lessen the strain on意为“减轻对……的压力/负担”。
