Water from deep below the ground at Japan's tens of thousands of hot springs could be used to produce electricity. Although Japanese hightech companies are leaders in geothermal(地热的) technology and export it, its use is limited in the nation. “Japan should no doubt make use of its resources of geothermal energy，” said Yoshiyasu Takefuji, a leading researcher of thermalelectric power production. The disastrous earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011 caused a reaction against atomic power, which previously made up 30 percent of Japan's energy needs, and increased interest in alternative energies, which account for only 8 percent. Artist Yoko Ono has called on Japan to explore its natural energy, following the example of Iceland which uses renewable energy for more than 80 percent of its needs. For now, geothermal energy makes up less than 1 percent of the energy needs in Japan, which has for decades relied heavily on fossil fuels and atomic power. The biggest problem to geothermal energy is the high initial cost of the exploration and constructing the factories.Another problem is that Japan's potentially best sites are already being developed for tourism or are located within national parks where construction is forbidden. “We can't even dig 10cm inside national parks，” said Shigeto Yamada of Fuji Electric, adding that regulations protecting nature would need to be relaxed for geothermal energy to grow. Researcher Hideaki Matsui said, “Producing electricity by using hot springs is a decadeslong project.We also have to think about what to do for now as energy supplies will decline in the short term.” 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 The Earth Policy Institute in Washington, the US, believed Japan could produce 80，000 megawatts(兆 瓦)and meet more than half its electricity needs with geothermal technology. Japanese giants such as Toshiba are already global leaders in geothermal technology, with a 70 percent market share.In 2010, Fuji Electric built the world's largest geothermal factory in New Zealand. 1．What would be the best title for the text? A．Alternative energies in Japan B．The world's largest geothermal plant C．Japan takes the lead in geothermal technology D．Japan thinks of geothermal energy 2．What percentage of Japan's energy needs is geothermal energy? A．About 8%. B．Below 1%. C．Around 30%. D．Over 80%. 3．According to Shigeto Yamada, the growth of geothermal power in Japan needs ________． A．a change of rules B．financial support C．local people's help D．high technology 4．Geothermal energy is considered as a longterm program by ________． A．Yoshiyasu Takefuji B．Hideaki Matsui C．Shigeto Yamada D．Yoko Ono 5．It can be learned from the last two paragraphs that ________． A．the world's biggest geothermal plant was built by America B．Japan will not export its geothermal technology C．the potential of Japan's geothermal energy is great D．it is hard to find geothermal energy in Japan (一) 【要点综述】 文章主要讲述了日本正在考虑开发地热能。因为日本是地震多发国家，国家地热能非常丰富， 所以地热能将是日本的新型替代能源。 1．D 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了日本正在考虑开发地热能，围绕地热能的话题展开。故选 D 项。 2．B 细节理解题。从第七段“For now，geothermal energy makes up less than 1 percent of the energy 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 needs in Japan，which has for decades relied heavily on fossil fuels and atomic power.”可知， 日本地热能不到 1%，主要依赖于化石燃料和原子能。故选 B 项。 3．A 细节理解题。从倒数第四段“…adding that regulations protecting nature would need to be relaxed for geothermal energy to grow.”可知，要开发地热能需要将现行的规章制度进行改变，故选 A 项。 4．B 细节理解题。从“Researcher Hideaki Matsui said，‘Producing electricity by using hot springs is a decadeslong project…”可知，Hideaki Matsui 认为地热能是个长期的项目，故选 B 项。 5．C 推理判断题。从最后两段可知，日本在地热能方面有着巨大的潜力，故选 C 项。 [科普知识型阅读理解(一)]----- (二) Last night's meteor(流星)shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers.According to Gabe Rothschild, Emerald Valley's mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky.What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city's lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead. “My family was so frustrated，” admitted town resident Duane Cosby.“We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment.” Astronomers—scientists who study stars and planets—have been complaining about this problem for decades.They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past.They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it. There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs，snakes，etc.For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating (迁徙的)birds.According to the International DarkSky Association，“100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers.” Countless more animal casualties(伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting.Clearly，people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans，too.They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person's chances of getting cancer. 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution.For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory.Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night. 1．It happened last night that ________． A. the city's lights affected the meteor watching B．the meteors flew past before being noticed C．the city light show attracted many people D．the meteor watching ended up a social outing 2．What do the astronomers complain about? A．Meteor showers occur less often than before. B．Their observation equipment is in poor repair. C．Light pollution has remained unsolved for years. D．Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting. 3．What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4? A. Birds may take other migration paths. B．Animals' living habits may change suddenly. C．Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced. D．Animals' survival is threatened by outdoor lighting. 4．Lighting regulations in Flagstaff, Arizona are put into effect to________． A．lessen the chance of getting cancer B．create an ideal observation condition C．ensure citizens a good sleep at night D．enable all creatures to live in harmony 5．What message does the author most want to give us? A．Saving wildlife is saving ourselves. B．Great efforts should be made to save energy. C．Human activities should be environmentally friendly. D．New equipment should be introduced for space study.
