All around the world, buildings are going green! People are making green buildings. What does it mean to go green or to make a green building? A green building is designed in a way that is not harmful to the environment. The building uses energy, water, and other materials in ways that are good for the environment.
When planning green buildings, architects(建筑师) must think about how to use energy, water, and materials in an environment-friendly way. There are many ways to save energy. Architects can design buildings to use natural light. Buildings can also be made with solar or wind power to get energy from the sun or the wind. To save water, green buildings can have areas on the roofs to collect rainwater. Kitchens and bathrooms can have sinks(洗涤池) and toilets(马桶) that conserve water. As for the materials used to build the building, it is important to use materials that do not have chemicals that are harmful to the air or water. Recycled materials can also be used for buildings.
Buildings around the world use all three of these ways to go green. An office building called CH2 in Melbourne, Australia, uses wind and solar power. A cultural centre in London, England, is made from recycled train cars and is powered by solar and wind power. The Academy of Sciences building in California, the US, has recycled materials, solar energy, and a huge "living roof" of plants. A building in Thailand is made out of one million recycled glass bottles! This is a good use of recycled materials, and it also lets natural light into the temple.
More and more green buildings are being built, and they are making the world a better place!

解析
【分析】
本题为关于绿色建筑的阅读理解题，共5道小题，分别考查细节理解、词义猜测、主旨大意等能力。解题思路：61题需定位原文中绿色建筑的定义，匹配选项；62题找设计自然光的目的，对应节能相关内容；63题结合上下文语境猜测划线词词义；64题分析第三段的论证方法；65题提炼全文主旨确定标题。
【解析】
61题：根据第一段“A green building is designed in a way that is not harmful to the environment.”可知，绿色建筑是环保设计的建筑，A（外观涂绿）、B（用更多材料）、C（由著名建筑师设计）均不符合，选D。
62题：根据第二段“There are many ways to save energy. Architects can design buildings to use natural light.”可知，设计自然光的目的是节约能源，选A。
63题：第二段围绕“节水”展开，划线词所在句“sinks and toilets that conserve water”意为“节水的洗涤池和马桶”，conserve表示“节约”，对应save，选A。
64题：第三段列举了澳大利亚CH2办公楼、伦敦文化中心等多个绿色建筑的实例，通过举例支撑段落主旨，选B。
65题：全文围绕“绿色建筑（going green）”展开，核心主题是建筑的绿色化，选B。
