Most people make treehouses using a pile of wood, a hammer, and some nails. Mitchell Joachim, an architect from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has a(n) _36_ vision. He pictures a day when homes will be created from __37__. Joachim's vision ___38__ an idea called pleaching (编织), where tree branches are grown so that they __39__ weave together. Since the growth patterns of trees are _40_ by wind and sunlight, it may be __41_ to control the way a tree develops.
These Fabricated Tree House Habitats would use trees grown into shapes as housing. One of the __42_ of these designs is that trees would not have to be cut down __43_.
\．__45_ the climate, a house could take anywhere from 5 to 30 years to grow. Fortunately, there's a way to __46_ the process. Joachim suggests including __47_ materials such as sod (草皮), grasses and living branches in the housing designs. \would be able to move __48_ the house grows,\Joachim said．
A home would become an actual ecosystem, a community of plants, animals, and bacteria working together. The trees would also give off water vapor that would assist in _49__ the homes. Solar panels and wind would help provide _50__. The tree homes might even have soil pockets, __51_ plants could grow from the structure itself.
Work has already __52_ on Joachim's first design—a house made from 50 percent recycled and 50 percent living things. Joachim is confident about the __53__ of his work, as he uses natural products _54_ nature.

随着人们环保意识的增长，保护大自然，爱护大自然已经成为人们的共识。最近美国建筑家设计了一种更环保的建筑方式，让活生生的树自然长成一座房子。
36. D 由下文可知，Joachim的主意与上面提到的不同。 37. A 由下文意义可知，这座房子是由活生生的树建成的。
38. C Joachim主意是建立在―将树枝编织在一起这种想法‖上。用be based on表示―建立在……的基础上‖。 39. B 由上文的pleaching，树枝在成长的过程中，―自然‖编织在一起。
14
40. B 植物的生长受风和阳光的―影响‖。 41. A 有可能控制树林生长的方式。
42. D 由上文―将树木自然长成房子的形状‖，显然是指这种设计的优点。 43. B 这种设计的优点是不用将树砍倒来取木材，at ease―自由自在‖。
44. D 由下文from 5 to 30 years to grow可知，此处意为―一座100%的活树房子要很多年才能建成‖。 45. A．依靠自然的气候的条件，要5 到30年才能长出一座房子来。 46. A 由句中的副词Fortunately可知，有办法―加快‖房子修建的进程。
47. C 由下文例出的材料sod, grasses and living branches判断，此处应为―生态材料‖。 48. B 此处为时间状语从句，意为：在生长的过程中，这些材料能够动。 49. C 由上文―发出水蒸气‖，自然可得出―使房子凉爽‖。
50. B 根据主语―太阳能帆板和风‖的功能推断，是给房子提供能源。
51. A 此处是非限制性定语从句，先行词soil pockets表示地点，所以用where。 52. D 由上下文可知，此项工程已经开始。并非―完成、控制或停止‖。
53. D 由下文他说的The environment and its study are very important可知，此处表示―他深信他工作的重要性‖。 54. B 他使用的是不破坏自然的天然材料。D项coming from与natural products的意义重复。
55. C 由上文的―尊重大自然‖(respect nature)，可得出―想当然，漠不关心‖。think we are it 自鸣不凡；do it ourselves自作主张；put it like this解释。
