25、阅读理解

 (2013温州)

  It is widely agreed that the overuse of fossil fuels，such as coal and oil has caused serious environmental problems．Scientists are trying to find new clean energies that do not pollute the air，the water or the ground．Solar power is one of them．

  Solar power is a kind of electricity which is produced by taking energy from the sun，using solar panels．The solar panels are usually fixed on the roofs of houses and buildings．It is the family solar power system．Some countries are even beginning to build solar power plants by setting thousands of solar panels in the places where there is enough sunshine．Solar power has many advantages．The power is easy to get and will never be used up．Whenever it is sunny，there is the power．The power is clean and renewable．It helps to reduce waste and pollution，which is great for the environment．In the areas that are too far away to send electricity to or not easy to build electric power plants，solar power is especially necessary．It enables the people there to use lights，TVs，computers，washing machines，fridges and many other things．

  Therefore，more and more countries，such as China，the USA，Japan and India，encourage scientists to develop practical technology to put solar power to use．However，the power is not as widely used as expected．

  One of the challenges is that a solar power system needs sunshine．Countries or areas with a lot of rain，like the UK，are not suitable to develop such power systems．Secondly，a solar power plant requires a very large site to fix enough solar panels to collect sunlight and change it into electricity．Maybe an area in the desert would be one of the perfect places for such a plant to build．What’s more，solar panels are expensive at present though the energy itself doesn’t cost anything．

  Today scientists are working hard to develop more practical and cheaper solar power systems．Maybe one day solar power will be one of the most important clean energies in our life．

【1】Solar power is a kind of energy taken from________．

A．the air

B．the sun

C．the water

D．the ground

【2】The underlined word“reduce”probably means________．

A．to make something less

B．to make something better

C．to make something more

D．to make something cleaner

【3】What is the fourth paragraph of the passage mainly about？

A．The ways to use solar power．

B．The advantages of solar power．

C．The places to build the solar power plants．

D．The difficulties of putting solar power to use widely．

【4】What can we learn from the passage？

A．Solar energy itself is expensive．

B．Solar power will be used up very soon．

C．Solar power is a kind of clean and useful energy．

D．Solar power is much better than the other energies．

26、   Joe moved to Canada with his family at the age of 41. There were many stressful days for them in the beginning. Since Joe had no job, the savings(存款) they brought with them were diminishing rapidly.

One day, Joe went out to look for a job. As he walked, he saw many things on the street that people threw away. Joe could not believe his eyes. “Why would people throw away such things?” he asked himself. Joe saw a “new” television and decided to take it home to see what the problem was.

Since he was 12 years old, Joe’s main hobby has been electronics(电子产品). As a teenage boy, he began to repair radios, TVs and so on.

Joe brought the television home and turned it on. There were pictures on the screen, but there was no sound. He opened the back cover. Before long, Joe found the problem. The loudspeaker(扬声器) was broken. He went out again. Among the garbage on the street, he found a toy piano. He carried the piano home. Luckily its loudspeaker worked. Fifteen minutes later, Joe had a TV with both pictures and sound.

Joe began to question people about why they were throwing away electronics. The answer was the same from everyone: getting them repaired was too expensive. People would rather(宁愿) buy new products.

Joe decided to open an electronics repair shop that would offer fair prices.

Today, Joe has been very successful in his new country. Instead of losing hope, he chose to make the best out of a difficult situation.

27、   You must have remembered the story from your childhood: an old man was worried about his sons who were always quarreling(吵架) among themselves. In order to teach them a lesson, he asked them to break a bundle(捆) of sticks tied together. Clearly, none of them could. And when the bundle was untied, they were able to break each stick easily enough. Why? This is because of the power of unity(团结).

The power of unity is known to all of us. But we often seem to forget it when it comes to individual(个体的) success. Most of us consider our success as a personal thing, and it has nothing to do with others.

Dr. John Maxwell, in his book Success Journey says that success is not a trip that you take alone. But it is something that you take with your family and your friends. Think about it—if at the end of all the achievements, you find yourself alone, will you call it success in a real sense?

Your dream and your success do not belong to you alone. Even though you work hard towards your dream, there are people who are working behind to make sure that you are able to give you a hundred percent. For example, you are studying in school so that you can have good education; your parents are working hard to pay for the cost and provide something you need for you.

Do you think that it is possible without unity? Don’t you feel that these people are doing their best so that you can be successful? And so, unity plays an important role, even if you are talking about your personal success. So, it is your responsibility(责任) to maintain unity if you really want to be successful in life. Only if you always treat things and people in your life seriously, will you succeed because all the things and people around you have connections in some way.
