Passage 1
The Architect
We have all heard stories of the architect who forgot to provide stairs or lifts in the block of flats he was designing. There are even sillier tales of houses designed without any doors. However, many strange buildings can still be seen. In past centuries, there were hardly any building restrictions, and rich people could build whatever they wimes their ideas were very odd indeed and resulted in strange ‘follies’, such as a triangular cottage, or a hen-house in the form of a pyramid, or a house disguised as a windmill. But nowadays there are a great many restrictions, both official and aesthetic, and the architect must know all of them. The artistic and creative aspects are only a small part of the modem architect‘ work. He does not simply design a building and then wait for someone else to build it. He must know all the qualities of the materials he uses, and has to take into consideration heating, lighting, ventilation, insulation, drainage, and many other aspects that never worried our ancestors at all.
In all building work there are three main parties: the client, the architect and the builder. The client tells the architect what he wants, or, at least, gives him some idea of the kind of building he has in mind. The architect then visits the site and prepares rough plans for the client‘s approval. He also consults the various authorities concerned. When all the work has been approved in principle, and the plans satisfy the client, the architect can then prepare working drawings and detailed instructions for the builder. Different builders are then invited to submit estimates, or ’tenders‘, for doing the work; the most economical tender is usually accepted. So the work begins. A modern architect is the leader of a team of specialists, and must co-ordinate all their services. There is no other profession that involves so many suppliers, contractors, consultants, authorities and tradesmen. There are few jobs that are more difficult to carry out, and few that give more satisfaction when a project is completed successfully.
what way is the work of an architect in the twentieth century more difficult than it was three hundred years ago?
e were no restrictions on building in the past.
rn buildings are much bigger.
e are a lot of restrictions nowadays and more problems to consider.
e hundred years ago, houses had no heating or drainage to consider.
is a ‘folly’?
thing stupid.
B.A building in a strange shape.
C.A rich man‘s house.
D.A house with few restrictions.

Passage 2
Recycling Waste
Within fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes for the recycling of waste. The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything which goes into the dustbin would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would provide energy if nothing else.
The new concept of recycling waste is taking shape at the British technological laboratory at Warren Spring, not far north of London. Today, the laboratory spends four times as much money in studying recycling as it did five years ago. The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rubber as well. Methods have been discovered, for example, for removing the ink from newsprint so that the paper can be used again, and for obtaining valuable oils and gases from old motorcar tyres. All these ideas are already being made use of, but what is new is the idea of combining them on such a large scale, in a single plant designed to recycle most types of waste.
Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this project is complete, the rubbish will be processed like this: first, it will pass through sharp metal spikes which will tear open the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solids; after that crushers and rollers will break up everything that can be broken. Finally, the rubbish will pass under magnets, which will remove the bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage.
The first full-scale giant recycling plants are, perhaps, fifteen years away. But in some big industrial areas, where rubbish has been dumped for so long that there are no holes left to fill up with rubbish, these new automatic recycling plants may be built sooner. Indeed, with the growing cost of transporting rubbish to more distant dumps, some big cities will be forced to build their own recycling plants before long.
