We’ve used the wind as an energy source for a long time.

The Babylonians and Chinese were using wind power to

pump water for irrigating crops 4,000 years ago, and sailing

boats were around long before that.Wind power was used in the

Middle Ages, in Europe, to grind(磨碎) corn, which is where

 the term “windmill” comes from.

We can use the energy in the wind by building a tall tower, with a large propellor(螺旋桨) on the top.The wind blows the propellor round, which turns a generator to produce electricity.We tend to build many of these towers together, to make a “wind farm” and produce more electricity.The more towers, the more wind, and the larger the propellors, the more electricity we can make.It's only worth building wind farms in places that have strong, steady winds, although boats and caravans(大篷车)increasingly have small wind generators to help keep their batteries charged.

The best places for wind farms are in coastal areas, at the tops of rounded hills, open plains and gaps in mountains — places where the wind is strong and reliable.Some are offshore.To be worthwhile, you need an average wind speed of around 25 km/h.Most wind farms in the UK are in Cornwall or Wales.Isolated places such as farms may have their own wind generators.In California, several “wind farms” supply electricity to homes around Los Angeles.

The propellors are large, to obtain energy from the largest possible volume of air.The blades can be angled to cope with varying wind speeds.Some designs use vertical turbines (垂直涡轮机), which don’t need to be turned to face the wind.The towers are tall, to get the propellors as high as possible, up to where the wind is stronger.This means that the land beneath can still be used for farming.

1.The first paragraph aims to introduce to us _______.

         A.the function of wind power                B.the source of wind power

         C.the nations using wind power           D.the history of using wind power

2.The best places for building the wind farm are places where _______.

         A.boats and caravans can often be seen    B.isolated farms don’t have enough electricity

         C.there are less human activities                 D.the wind is strong and reliable

3.We can infer from the passage that _______.

         A.wind farms will not take up too much farming land

         B.wind farms need no fuel because wind is free

         C.the blades can be angled to turn to face the wind wherever it comes from

         D.the higher and larger the towers are, the stronger the wind is

4.What can be a suitable title for the passage?

       A.Where to build a wind farm.          B.ABC of the using of wind energy.

       C.How to make best use of wind.      D.Wind energy is the best energy.

 

Recently, a study was carried out to determine who was the greatest American president.Sixty-five presidential historians took part in it, and they judged the past forty-two American leaders based on ten leadership qualities, including public persuasiveness (信服), crisis leadership, management of the economy, moral leadership, and conduct of international relations.The historians also looked at administrative (管理) ability, relations with Congress, ability to set goals, and the pursuit of equal justice for all.Finally, the experts took into consideration the historical period in which the president lived.

The historians chose Abraham Lincoln as American’s greatest president.He had also been named best president in a similar study in 2000.Abraham Lincoln was the president who led the nation through the Civil War in the 1860s, and was able to unite it in the end.He also took the first steps to abolish slavery in America.

Edna Medford, a professor of history at Howard University in Washington, D.C., was an adviser on this study and the earlier one.She says Abraham Lincoln is seen to represent the values the nation most honors, such as truthfulness, moderation, and respect for human rights.

The historians put American’s first president, George Washington, second on the list, while Franklin D.Roosevelt, Theodore Roosevelt, and Harry Truman follow in that order.John   F.Kennedy, the country’s first Roman Catholic president, is sixth on the list.Like Lincoln, Kennedy was murdered while in office.

Among recent presidents, Ronald Reagan was named the tenth best and Bill Clinton rated fifteenth, while the historians put former president George W.Bush at number thirty-six.His father, George H.W.Bush, did much better, being placed at number eighteen.

 We learn from the text that ___________.

       A.this is the second time that Abraham Lincoln has been chosen as America’s greatest president

       B.Edna Medford didn’t take part in the study conducted in 2000.

       C.George H.W.Bush was thought to have done worse in office than George W.Bush

       D.Harry Truman was rated the fourth-best president by the study

ERATH WEEK---A DIARY OF THE PLANET

Enduring Storms

Several more rounds of severe storms, tornadoes and flash flooding struck many parts of the American Midwest and Northeast as bad weather continued across the US for a second month.   

Monsoon Storms

A south-west monsoon has caused havoc in parts of Sri Lanka. Government meteorologists said that unexpected monsoonal winds blew directly across the country from the Southern Hemisphere at about 100km/h, producing several rounds of stormy weather. Nearly 250 houses in the capital Colombo were damaged.

Mt. Etna Erupts

   Sicily’s Mount Etna volcano erupted shortly after midnight on July 1, shooting “bombs” of lava nearly 1.5 meters in diameter on the eastern side of the mountain. The 30-minute eruption could be seen for several miles, but did not threaten any nearby villages.

Hurricane

   Hurricane Blas lost strength as it moved over cooler waters in the Pacific Ocean to the west of Mexico. Blas formed off southwest Mexico during the previous week, but squalls on the outer fringes of the storm lashed western Michoacan State, killing four people when their wood and cardboard home collapsed.

Monkey Repellent

   After years of unsuccessful attempts to keep crop-eating monkeys out of Japanese fields, a Tokyo research team believes that it may have finally found a way to prevent the damage caused by the monkeys. Animal raids on crops were successfully prevented by shooting chilli powder into the air, irritating the eyes and noses of monkeys that passed in front of carefully-placed warning sensors. “We’ve tried al kinds of preventive measures, but the monkeys are smart enough to outwit the tricks, “said Toshiaki Wada, Director of the Tokyo Forestry Experiment Station in western Tokyo.

A. The eruption of Mt. Etna lasted thirty days.
