     In our lives, we enjoy everything from computers to cars to heated buildings. These comforts have
something in common: they all need energy to work. Energy has many different forms. One form, electricity,
comes mostly from steam-powered generators (蒸汽發(fā)電機(jī)). Steam is made by buming coal, oil, or natural
gas. Gasoline(汽油) is another form of energy. Casoline is made from oil. Oil has many other uses. Paints,
fertilizers, and plastics are made from it. We even use it to heat buildings. Coal, oil, and gas are natural
resources (資源). We take them from nature to make our lives easier.
     We can classify (分類) natural resources as either renewable or nonrenewable. Coal, oil, and gas are
nonrenewable. They take millions of years to form. Some scientists predict that we will run out of oil and
gas in 50 to 100 years. Coal is more plentiful. So it may last for hundreds of years. Resources such as wood
and water are renew- able. They can be grown or recycled naturally. They can, however, become limited
from overuse.
     We have developed some altemate (替代的) sources of energy. But these sources have disadvantages. For
example, hydroelectric power, or energy from running water, affects the ecology (生態(tài)) of surrounding areas.
Nuclear power (核電), another altemate source, presents the threat (威脅) of nuclear accidents. There are also
problems related to the storage (儲存) of nuclear wastes. Solar and wind energies aren't consistent. We can't
depend on them. Geothermal energy, caused by heat from inside the earth, is tapped by drawing steam and
hot water from pools and geysers. This energy source, like most others, isn't fully developed.
      It's time to get serious about energy. We must find practical, alternate energy sources. If we wait too long,
it will be too late. We will run out of coal, oil, and natural gas. Then we won't have the resources to make
altemate energy sources.
1. Does oil have many uses? 
    ________________________________________
2. How long may coal last according to the passage?
    ________________________________________
3. Why are wood and water renewable resources? 
    ________________________________________
4. What can be problems with nuclear power?

     Qiu Baoxing, Vice-minister of Construction of China, has said that our country is "facing a more serious
water crisis (危機(jī)) than any other country in the world." And the Chinese government would raise the cities'
waste water treatment rate from 45.6% to 60% in five years.
     "Because water plays such an important role in our country's economy (經(jīng)濟(jì)) and people's life, we must
pay much attention to it. We have to solve the problem before it is too late," warned Qiu. He said China should
learn lessons from developed countries. They have paid heavy costs in solving the environmental pollution."
We must take action before the city water ecosystem collapses (生態(tài)惡化)," Qiu said.
     Qian Yi, professor of environmental engineering, said that two problems-the shortage of water resources
and the pollution of water cause China's water crisis. He said China's present water availability is still low,
about a fourth of the world average level. By 2030, the number will drop much. What's worse, among China's
seven main rivers, five have been seriously polluted. The worst is the Haihe River near Beijing and Tianjin.
     Qiu said the government is improving the city water, controlling strictly water quality and safety. The
Ministry of Construction of China is now working with the Ministry of Health to work out a new set of

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷正(T)誤(F)。
     Stop and listen! What do you hear? You may hear many different sounds. Some of those sounds may be
noise. Noise is a loud or unwanted sound.
     Noise can be caused by many kinds of machines, such as motorcycles, jet planes (噴氣式飛機(jī)), farm
tractors, and power motors. And, to some people, rock music is also a noise.
     What happens to people who live near noisy machines or use them over a period of time? Doctors have
found that these people have trouble in sleeping. And most importantly, constant (連續(xù)的) loud noise can cause
loss of hearing.
     Scientists use a unit of measure called a decibel (分貝) to measure the loudness of a sound. The sound of a
quiet room, for example, measures 35 decibels. Talking measures between 40 and 65 decibels. Sounds from
traffic and from some rock bands measure over 120 decibels. Noise at such high level causes the greatest
hearing loss.
(     ) 1. According to the passage, noise is all sounds that you can hear.
(     ) 2. A "decibel" is a machine that makes loud noise.
(     ) 3. Loud noise can help people sleep better.
(     ) 4. Not all people think that rock music is a noise.
(     ) 5. We can infer (推斷) from the passage that noise is a serious problem.
