Question

New Energy in the Twenty-first Century Energy from the wind.
All over the world, people use the power of the wind. It is a clean source of energy, and there is lots of it. But if the wind does not blow, there is no wind energy.
Energy from the water
When water moves from a high place to a lower place it has the power to make electricity. In Britain, waterpower produces enough energy to power a town with 40000 people. Waterpower gives energy without pollution, but people have to build dams(大壩) to use this kind of power, and building dams is very expensive.
Energy from the earth
There is heat in the rocks under the earth. Scientists use the heat to make geothermal(地熱的) San Francisco gets half of the energy it needs from geothermal power. This kind of energy is cheap, but it is only possible in a few places in the world.
Energy from the sun
Solar panels(鑲板) on the roofs of houses and buildings can turn energy from the sun into electricity. These panels can create enough energy to heat the whole house during winter. Solar power is clean and plentiful, but when the weather is bad, it can’t produce power.

小題2:Without pollution.
小題3:Cheap.
小題4:It can’t produce power if the weather is bad.

試題分析：在二十一世紀的時期，我們可以利用新的能源，例如：風能、水的能源、地熱和太陽能。每一個能源都有它的優點和缺點。短文通過一張圖表的形式，將其優點和缺點明確的展示出來，讓大家一目了然。
小題1:細節理解題。問題：風力能源的缺點是什么？聯系原文：if the wind does not blow, there is no wind energy.句意：但是,如果沒有風，就沒有風能。明確了風能的缺點。故填：If the wind doesn’t blow, there is no wind energy.
小題2:細節理解題。問題：水力能源的優點是什么？聯系原文：Waterpower gives energy without pollution.句意：水力能源沒有污染。明確了優點是沒有污染。故填：Without pollution.
小題3:細節理解題。問題：地熱能源其優點是什么？聯系原文：This kind of energy is cheap.句意：這種能源是便宜的。說明地熱能源的優點。故填：Cheap.
小題4:細節理解題。問題：太陽能的缺點是什么？聯系原文：when the weather is bad, it can’t produce power.句意：當天氣不好的時候，它就不能產生能量。故填：It can’t produce power if the weather is bad.
