共用题干Natural Gas1 Natural gas is produced from reservoirs deep beneath the earth's surface. It is a fossil fuel（矿物燃 料）,meaning that it is derived from orgaiiic material buried in the earth millions of years ago.The main corn- ponent of natural gas is methane（甲烷）.2 The popularity and use of clean natural gas have increased dramatically over the past 50 years as pipeline infrastructure（基础设施）has been installed to deliver it conveniently and economically to millions of residential,commercial and industrial customers worldwide.Today,natural gas service is available in all 50 states in the U.S.,and is the leading energy choice for fueling American homes and industries.More than 65 million American homes use natural gas.In fact,natural gas is the most economical source for home energyneeds,costing one-third as much as electricity.In addition to heating homes,much of the gas used in the United States is used as a raw material to manufacture a wide variety of products,from paint,to fibers for clothing,to plastics for healthcare,computing and furnishings.Natural gas is also used in a significant number of new electricity-generating power plants.3 Natural gas is one of the safest and cleanest fuels available. It emits（发出）less pollution than other fossil fuel sources. When natural gas is burned , it produces mostly carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）and water va- por一the same substances emitted when humans breathe.Compared with some other fossil fuels,natural gas emits the least amount of carbon dioxide into the air when combusted（燃烧）一making natural gas the clea-nest burning fossil fuel of all.4 The United States consumes about one一third of the world's natural gas output,making it the largest gas-consuming region in the world.The U.S.Department of Energy Information Administration forecasts that natural gas demand will grow by more than 50 percent by 2025.5 There are huge reserves of natural gas beneath the earth's surface.The largest reserves of natural gas can be found in Russia , West and North Africa and the Middle East. LNG（液化天然气）has been pro- duced domestically and imported in the United States for more than four decades.Today,the leading import- ers of LNG are Japan,Korea,France and Spain.Paragraph 3__________A:Popularity and Use of Natural GasB:Natural Gas Reserves and SupplyC:Natural Gas PricesD:Clean Fuel of ChoiceE:Disadvantages of Natural GasF:Natural Gas Consumption

Wind farms come in onshore and offshore forms.They can often end up at spots of natural beauty,and are often un- popular with residents.And turbines are not totally benign一they can interfere with radar and leave a signifi- cant ecological footprint,altering climate and killing sea birds.Migrating birds may have more luck avoiding them.Scotland is building Europe's largest wind farms,which will power 200,000 homes.The UK's goal isto generate one-fifth of power from renewable sources,mainly wind,by 2020.But this may cause problems, because wind is unreliable.Which of the following statements is true of wind power?A:Here is plenty of wind to provide the world'S entire energy needs.B:It is the most rapidly growing type of electricity production.C:It may not be reliable.D:All of the above.

Most experts predict we will exhaust easily accessible reserves within 50 years.Less-polluting renewable energy sources offer a more practical long-term energy solution. "Renewable"refers to the fact that these resources are not used faster than they can be replaced.Hydroelectric（水力发电的）power is now the most common form of renewable energy, supplying around 20%of world electricity.China's Three Gorges Dam is the largest ever.
