Which zone of the blast furnace has the highest temperature?

Copper is the most noble of the first row transition metals and occurs in small deposits in several countries. Ores of copper include chalcanthite $(CuSO_4 \cdot 5H_2O)$,atacamite $(Cu_2Cl(OH)_3)$,cuprite $(Cu_2O)$,copper glance $(Cu_2S)$ and malachite $(Cu_2(OH)_2CO_3)$. However,$80\%$ of the world copper production comes from the ore of chalcopyrite $(CuFeS_2)$. The extraction of copper from chalcopyrite involves partial roasting,removal of iron and self-reduction. $1.$ Partial roasting of chalcopyrite produces: $(A)$ $Cu_2S$ and $FeO$ $(B)$ $Cu_2O$ and $FeO$ $(C)$ $CuS$ and $Fe_2O_3$ $(D)$ $Cu_2O$ and $Fe_2O_3$. $2.$ Iron is removed from chalcopyrite as: $(A)$ $FeO$ $(B)$ $FeS$ $(C)$ $Fe_2O_3$ $(D)$ $FeSiO_3$. $3.$ In self-reduction,the reducing species is: $(A)$ $S$ $(B)$ $O^{2-}$ $(C)$ $S^{2-}$ $(D)$ $SO_2$. Give the answer for questions $1, 2$ and $3$.

Upon heating with $Cu_2S$,the reagent$(s)$ that give copper metal is/are:
$(A)$ $CuFeS_2$
$(B)$ $CuO$
$(C)$ $Cu_2O$
$(D)$ $CuSO_4$

In the aluminothermite process,aluminium acts as:
