One
of
the
world’s
richest
men
has
taken
a
close
interest
in
one
of
man’s
most
basic
functions：visiting
the
toilet.Bill
Gates’
charitable
organization，the
Bill
&
Melinda
Gates
Foundation，is
looking
for
inventors
to
design
the
toilet
of
the
future，which，they
hope，would
improve
sanitation
for
millions
of
people
around
the
world.
So，what’s
wrong
with
the
traditional
flush
toilet
(抽水马桶)？Firstly，it
wastes
a
huge
amount
of
potential
drinking
water.This
is
a
real
problem
in
many
areas
of
the
developing
world，where，according
to
the
United
Nations’
estimates，unsafe
sanitation
causes
half
of
all
hospitalizations.Younger
people
are
particularly
at
risk.Illnesses
which
cause
diarrhea(腹泻)
are
responsible
for
the
deaths
of
about
1.5
million
children
a
year.Secondly，standard
lavatories
simply
aren’t
practical
in
remote
areas.
The
challenge
set
by
Bill
Gates
was
to
come
up
with
a
latrine(户外厕所)
which
works
without
running
water，electricity
or
a
septic
tank(化粪池)．It
also
needed
to
operate
for
less
than
5
cents(0.3
RMB)．
28
designs
were
displayed
at
the
recent
Reinvent
the
Toilet
Fair
in
Seattle，USA.Among
them
was
one
which
turned
poo(粪)
into
electricity
using
microwaves，another
which
converted
poo
into
charcoal，and
yet
another
which
used
urine(尿)
for
flushing.
But
the
winner
was
a
solar powered
design
which
generated
hydrogen
gas
and
electricity.The
team
from
the
California
Institute
of
Technology
picked
up
a
prize
of
$100，000，almost
650，000
RMB.
Clearly
Bill
Gates
doesn’t
feel
he’s
flushing
money
down
the
toilet.After
the
Seattle
event
he
said，“We
couldn’t
be
happier
with
the
response
we’ve
gotten.”
Gates
has
even
pledged
$370
million
(2.2
billion
RMB)
more
to
the
future
toilet
project.They
hope
to
field
test
more
prototypes
over
the
next
three
years.
1．Why
is
Bill
Gates
paying
people
to
invent
new
toilets？
A．He
is
concerned
about
energy
saving.
B．He
is
concerned
about
people’s
health
benefits.
C．He
wants
to
earn
a
profit
from
the
invention.
D．He
just
wants
to
raise
people’s
awareness
of
invention.
2．One
problem
with
the
traditional
toilet
is
that______.
A．it
consumes
a
considerable
quantity
of
drinking
water
B．it
is
not
fit
to
use
in
most
areas
C．it
threatens
people’s
health，especially
the
adults’
D．it
takes
a
lot
of
money
3．Which
of
the
following
statements
about
Bill
Gates’
ideal
toilet
is
TRUE？
A．It
should
work
with
little
running
water.
B．It
should
not
depend
on
electricity.
C．It
should
be
equipped
with
a
septic
tank.
D．It
needs
no
money
to
operate
properly.
4．Which
design
won
the
competition？
A．The
one
turning
poo
into
electricity.
B．The
one
using
urine
for
flushing.
C．The
one
converting
poo
into
charcoal.
D．The
one
using
solar
power.
5．What
can
we
infer
from
the
passage？
A．Bill
Gates
is
wasting
money
on
the
project.
B．Bill
Gates’
standards
are
too
high.
C．There
will
be
more
designs
next
year.
D．Bill
Gates
is
satisfied
with
the
progress
of
the
project.
