1、The first English window was just a narrow opening in the wall. It was cut long, so that it would let in as much light as possible, and it is narrow in order to keep out the bad weather. However, the narrow opening let in more wind than light. This is why it was called "the wind's eye". The word window itself comes from two old Norway（挪威） words for wind and eye.

Before windows were used, the ancient halls and castles of Northern Europe and Britain were dark and smoky. Their great rooms were high, with only a hole in the roof to let out the smoke from the cooking fires.

As time went on, people wanted more light and air in their rooms. They made the wind's eye wider so as to let in air and light as much as possible. They spread canvas（帆布） across the window to keep out the bad weather.

2、 There are different ways in which people try to deal with the problem of energy. One way is the greater production of common energy sources, such as coal, oil and gas. The trouble with these sources, however, is that they are not renewable.

Another way is energy conservation（节能）, which means using energy more efficiently. In some very cold countries, people build special houses to save energy. They place materials between the inside and outside of the walls of the house to keep the cold out and the warmth in.

Finally, renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop. One form of these is geothermal energy（地热）. In certain parts of the world, the temperature of the earth increases thirty degrees centigrade with each kilometer down. At six kilometers, therefore, it rises to nearly two hundred degrees. Heat from the earth is already used in some countries.

(1)、How many ways of dealing with energy problems are talked about in the passage? C

A：One

B：Two

C：Three

D：Four
