[填空题]
When Toyota Motor Corp. moved one of its divisions into an
environmentally friendly, or "green", building in Torrance three years ago, it
expected to save on its energy bills. The building offered natural lighting,
electricity-generating rooftop solar panels and water recycling.
But something else also happened. Employee morale jumped while
absenteeism(旷工) fell. The overall energy and worker productivity savings more
than offset the added cost of making the facility environmentally friendly. "The
lighting is easier on the eyes and on the nerves," Toyota employee Mary Jo
Moutsios said. "I take a sense of pride in working in this building. It’s
pleasant and feels more productive. "
Results like Toyota’s are
helping to spark a budding "green revolution" in American workplaces. The
movement is starting to change how office buildings are designed and could
render thousands of existing offices obsolete (陈旧的,荒废的).

[单项选择]"Refrigerator production in China jumped from 1.4 million units in 1985 to 10.6 million in 1998," according to David Fridley, a researcher in the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, USA.
The Global Environmental Facility, through the United :Nations Development Program, has decided to fund $ 9.3 million of the $40 million program to help the government of China transform its market for refrigerators. The refrigerator project began in 1989 when the EPA signed an agreement with the government of China to assist in the elimination of CFCs from refrigerators. Berkeley Lab has been involved in the project since 1995 through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, developing the market transformation program based on the success of the first phase of the project, which involved designing and testing CFC (chlorofluorocabon) free, energy-efficient refrigerators.
