2010年成考高起点英语考试真题:What problem does Thane have according to the text?
题目:【阅读理解】
Eight years ago, officials in Chicago, Illinois, decided to replace the black roof on the city government building with a planted garden. The aim was to reduce energy costs, improve air quality and control the rainwater entering the city’s waste system (系统). Green roofs also help reduce a problem called urban heat islands (城市热岛现象). During hot weather, the building’s roof could reach temperature of up 76℃. With the garden, the temperature of the roof area was reduced by at least 30℃. Workers planted over 150 kinds of plants that could stand bad weather. Now, the area is cooler, the building requires less energy to keep cool, and the roof looks nice. Chicago also offers money to help people pay for building their own green roofs.

Officials decided to save energy by putting water heaters (热水器) powered by the sun on top of the city’s main hospital. The hospital saved thousands of dollars in energy costs every year. Officials then began building this kind of water heater around the city.
