第1题:

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 ( 有效地 ). In some very cold countries people build special houses to save energy. They place materials between the inside and the outside of the walls of the house to keep the cold out and the warmth in. The house is heated by the lights, the body heat of the people and the other equipment in it.

Finally, renewable energy sources are used even though they are often expensive to develop. One form. of these is geothermal energy. 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. To get the heat, water is pumped ( 压;抽 ) down into the rocks and back up to the surface. Heat from the earth is already used in certain countries.

1、How many ways of dealing with the energy problem are discussed in the text? ( )

A、Two.

B、Three.

C、Four.

D、Five.

2、From the text we learn that coal( ).

A、is quite easy to produce

B、is not used most efficiently

C、is the most common source of energy

D、could be renewed only by new technology

3、The writer tells about the "special houses" because they( ).

A、show the excellent skills of the builders

B、serve as an example of energy conservation

C、are heated by different sources of energy

D、are warmer than other types of houses

4、The underlined words "geothermal energy" in the third paragraph mean ( ).

A、renewable source

B、 underground source

C、 heat inside the earth

D、 temperature of the earth

5、At a place where the surface temperature is 15°C, how deep do you have to dig so as to get a temperature of 75 °C ? ( )

A、One km.

B、 Two km.

C、 Three km.

D、 Four km

Renewable Energy Sources

Today petroleum(石油)provides around 40% of the world's energy needs, mostly
fuelling automobiles.Coal is still used,mostly in power stations,to cover one-quarter of our
energy needs,but it is the least efficient,unhealthiest and most environmentally damaging
fossil fuel(矿物燃料).Natural gas reserves could fill some of the gap from oil,but reserves
of that will not last into the 22nd century either. Most experts predict we will exhaust easily
accessible reserves within 50 years.Less-polluting renewable energy sources offer a more
practical long-term energy solution."Renewable"refers to the fact that these resources are
not used faster than they can be replaced.
Hydroelectric(水力发电的)power is now the most common form of renewable energy,
suDDIvina around 20%of world electricity.China's Three Gorges Dam is the largest ever.
At five times the size of the US's Hoover Dam, its 26 turbines(涡轮机)will generate the
equivalent energy of 18 coal-fired power stations.It will satisfy 3% of China's entire
electricity demand.
In 2003. the first commercial power station to use tidal(潮汐的)currents in the open
sea opened in Norway. It is designed like windmill(风车),but others take the torm of
turbines.
As prices fall,wind power has become the fastest growing type of electricity
generation一quadrupling(翻两番)worldwide between 1999 and 2005. Modern wind farms
consist of turbines that generate electricity.Though it will be more expensive,there is more
than enoucih wind to provide the world's entire energy needs.Wind farms come in onshore
and offshore forms.They can often end up at spots of natural beauty,and are often
unpopular with residents.And turbines are not totally harmless一they can interfere with radar,
alter climate and kill sea birds.Scotland is building Europe's largest wind tarm,wnicn will
power 200.000 homes.The UK's goal is to generate one-fifth of power from renewable
sources,mainly wind,by 2020.But this may cause problems,because wind is unreiiable.

Which country took the lead in making use of tidal currents to produce power in 2003?
A:The UK.
B:China.
C:Norway.
D:TheUS.

答案:C

Passage Four
How can we get rid of garbage?Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?
These are two important questions that many people are asking today.Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time,They suggest using garbage as an energy source,and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.
For a long time,people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land.Now,empty land is scarce.But more and more garbage is produced each year.However,garbage can be a good fuel to use.The things in garbage do not look like coal,petroleum,or natural gas;but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels.As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies,we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage is not a new idea.Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years.The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby,buildings.In Paris,France,some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year.The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.
Our fossil fuel supplies are limited.Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs.This method could also reduce the amount if garbage piling up on the earth.

The best title for the passage may be______

A.Garbage and the Earth
B.Fossil Fuel and Garbage
C.Land and Garbage
D.Garbage?Energy Source
