专业英语中热电厂的总结
专业英语中热电厂的总结热电厂（Combined Heat and Power Plant，缩写为CHP）是一种利用燃料（如煤炭、天然气、生物质等）同时产生电力和热能的设施。
下面是对热电厂的专业英语总结：1. Definition: A combined heat and power plant, also known as a cogeneration plant, is a facility that simultaneously generates electricity and heat from fuel sources such as coal, natural gas, and biomass.2. System Configuration: A CHP plant consists of several components, including a prime mover (such as a gas turbine or steam turbine), a generator, a heat recovery system, and a heat distribution network.3. Electricity Generation: The prime mover drives the generator to produce electricity. The electricity generated can be used on-site or fed into the power grid.4. Heat Recovery: Waste heat from the electricity generation process is captured and utilized for various heating purposes, such as space heating, water heating, and industrial processes.5. Energy Efficiency: Compared to separate electricity and heat production, CHP systems offer significantly higher energy efficiency, as they effectively utilize waste heat that would otherwise be wasted in conventional power plants.6. Environmental Benefits: CHP plants help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote sustainability by maximizing fuel utilization and minimizing thermal losses.7. Types of CHP Systems: There are various types of CHP systems, including topping cycle, bottoming cycle, and combined cycle configurations, each suited for specific applications and fuel sources.8. Applications: CHP plants are commonly used in industrial facilities, hospitals, universities, and district heating systems, where there is a continuous demand for both electricity and heat.9. Economic Considerations: CHP systems can provide cost savings through reduced energy consumption, lower operating costs, and potential revenue from selling excess electricity to the grid.10. Maintenance and Operation: Proper maintenance and regular inspections are crucial to ensure the efficient and safe operation of the equipment in a CHP plant.It is important to note that this summary is devoid of any sensitive or classified information, and complies with Chinese laws and regulations.。

Forest Service currently predicts and tracks fires with a variety of tools, including remote automatic weather stations. But these stations are expensive and sparsely (稀疏地) distributed. Additional sensors could save trees by providing better local climate data to be used in fire prediction models and earlier warnings. However, recharging or replacing batteries by hand at very hard －to－reach locations makes it impractical and costly.The new sensor system seeks to avoid this problem by developing trees into a self－sustaining power supply. Each sensor is equipped with a battery that canbe slowly recharged using electricity produced by the tree. “A single tree doesn't generate a lot of power, but over time the trickle (细流) charge adds up, just like ________” said Shuguang Zhang, one of the researchers on the project and the associate director of the MIT's Center for Biomedical Engineering (CBE).The system produces enough electricity to allow the temperature and humidity sensors to wirelessly send out signals four times a day, or immediately if there's a fire. Each signal spreads from one sensor to another, until it reaches an existing weather station that sends the data by satellite to a forestry command center in Boise, Idaho.Scientists have long known that trees can produce extremely small amounts of electricity. But no one knew exactly how the energy was produced or how to take advantage of the power.16．What are the disadvantages of the remote automatic weather stations？a. They cost too much.b. They are of poor quality.c. They are not enough.d. They can't reach remote places.A．a, b B．b, d C．a, c D．b, c17．Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank？A．Far water does not put out near fire.B．All rivers run into sea.C．Many a little makes a mickle.D．It never rains but it pours.18．What Shuguang Zhang said in Paragraph 4 means that ________.A．a single tree is enough to generate much powerB．the power from the tree can't be storedC．trees can generate enough power for our lifeD．a tree can produce the electricity to meet the needs of a sensor19．What would the author talk about after the last paragraph of the passage？A．The amount of electricity trees produce.B．How trees produce electricity.C．Trees' contribution to society.D．The research process of tree power.20．What would be the best title for the passage？A．Preventing forest fires with tree powerB．Trees can produce electricityC．Tree power in daily lifeD．Developing new energyBHow you end a computer session depends on how you use the computer, your views on energy conservation (能源的节约), and what you have been told about how your decision will affect your investment's longevity： will frequent starting and stopping cause its circuits(电路) to burn out sooner？Rest easy, your computer is more likely to be damaged by a virus picked upfrom the Internet than by being turned off and on too much. They are also energy －efficient： such efficiency has reached the point where most computers place themselves in sleep mode if they remain idle (闲置的) for a certain period of time. So your computer will likely slip into sleep mode anyway, even if you leave it on overnight.Sleep mode itself, once a pretty unreliable option—you never knew if you would be able to wake your computer without having to reboot (重新启动) it—has been vastly improved with newer operating systems. If you want your computer to consume as little energy as possible when not in use, shut it down. If you want it to consume zero energy, you're going to have to unplug (拔去……的电源插头) it.Your computer can be in only three states： on, sleep or off—each of which draws some level of ele ctric current.A computer that is “on” will either be actively processing information or sitting idle, depending on whether the user is typing a document, reading an e－mail or has stepped away briefly. The amount of wattage (瓦特数) drawn when the computer is on varies greatly depending on whether it is a laptop or a desktop computer. The latter uses more energy because desktop power supplies are less efficient and require a separate and often larger, power －hungry monitor. It also varies based on the type of work being done： complex calculations requiring intensive processing are more power－hungry, whereas writing or Web browsing consumes far less electricity.21．If sleep mode goes wrong, what will probably happen to your computer？A．It will consume as little energy as possible.B．It is more likely to be damaged by a virus picked up from the Internet.C．It will have to be rebooted when used again.D．It has to be shut down and unplugged.22．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text that contributes to the different amount of energy a computer consumes？A．Whether it is a laptop or a desktop computer.B．What kind of work the computer is dealing with.C．The choice of how you use your computer.D．Whether the operating systems are new.23．When does a computer consume the most energy？A．When we let it remain idle.B．When we use it to do complex calculations.C．When we use it to type some documents and e－mail.D．When we use it for surfing the Internet.24．The reason why a desktop computer uses more energy than a laptop computer is that________.A．a desktop computer's monitor is separate and often largerB．a desktop computer is larger than a laptop computer in sizeC．a desktop computer performs more kinds of work than a laptop computer D．a desktop computer is not energy－efficient25．Which of the following is implied in the first two paragraphs？A．Frequent starting and stopping can damage a computer.B．A computer's longevity depends more on the proper way you use it. C．A virus picked up from the Internet is likely to damage a computer. D．The more often you use a computer, the more smoothly it works.课时作业(八)Ⅰ.1.D考查交际用语。

About 300 million masks are used and then thrown away every day in China. Where do these masks go? You might think they just go into a rubbish bin. But that’s just the first stop on the masks journey.After the masks are thrown into rubbish bins, rubbish trucks take the rubbish to collection areas. Next, the masks will be burned. Won’t burning masks cause pollution? The answer is no. According to scientists, it doesn’t produce harmful things.In fact, the main material of most masks is polypropylene（聚丙烯）. After burning, it changes into water and CO2. The process（过程）of burning the rubbish can produce electricity. Burning one ton of rubbish can produce more than 400 kilowatt hours（度）of electricity. There will be 162, 000 tons of used masks in China this year. Burning all of them can produce more than 64 million kilowatt hours of electricity. This is enough to make an electric car drive about 370 million km.At last, the waste from burning masks can be recycled to make bricks（砖块）or fill the roads.45．How many masks are used and then thrown away every day in China?A．About 64 million.B．About 300 million.C．About 370 million.D．More than 400 million.46．The first stop on the used masks’ journey is ________.A．electricity factories B．rubbish trucks C．rubbish bins D．mask factories 47．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ?A．Burning used masks is environmentally friendly.B．Many people disagree with wearing masks in public.C．The process of burning the masks can produce bricks.D．There are 162, 000 tons of used masks every month in China.48．What is the best title of the passage?A．How do we burn used masks?B．How do people produce electricity?

Hood, about 70 miles east of Portland, on Saturday morning, according to the local police. Mt. Hood is the highest in Oregon, standing at around11.240 feet.The fall was seen by members of Portland Mountain Rescue (PMR), a volunteer organization focused on helping people in mountainous areas. The group called 911 and rushed to the woman, providing medical care. They helped keep the woman warm for seven hours as the police worked to get her off the mountain safely. Finally, the woman was evacuated (转移) to a parking lot at 9:30 pm and taken to a hospital.The climber, Leah Brown, said she didn’t know what caused her fall. “I can only guess it was either an ice tool or a crampon (冰爪) that didn’t land and stick like it should have, so I became detached from the mountain,” Brown said. “The thing I’d like to mo st stress is my appreciation for the members of PMR who evacuated me and took good care of me the whole time,” Brown added. “They saved my life. ”In a statement after the rescue, PMR warned of the dangerous winter conditions at the mountain. “The short da ys and lower temperatures mean that the snow tends to be very hard and icy, and the conditions tend to be much steeper. Climbing the mountain in icy conditions is much more difficult,” the group said.4. What happened to Brown on Saturday morning?A．She lost her way in a forest. B．She hurt her eye unexpectedly.C．She failed to call her family. D．She fell down on a downhill path.5. What does the underlined word “detached” in paragraph 4 mean?A．Different. B．Hidden. C．Separated.

B．Climbing in winter is too risky.C．We must remain positive in hard times. D．We can admire the view on sunny days.Our two-year investigation into caged (关在笼中) tigers in America sent us through 32 US states—with some truly shocking experiences. But as the deadline neared, I still needed a powerful and hopeful image.When we began our reporting in 2017—Sharon, writing; me taking photos; and our son, NickRuggia, filming—more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild. The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000, but without strict government oversight, no one knew for sure.Roadside zoos tha t allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what’s been called a US tiger crisis (危机). Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade. Young tigers, parted from their mothers at birth, were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people. When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks, young tigers were put on show, or simply disappeared.While we documented the unpleasant part of this industry, we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have. With two weeks left before my deadline, I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver, where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat.There I met Clay, Daniel, and Enzo, three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma.T hese nearly grown cats raced beside our car, which I’d seen only in the wild. It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off. The third rested beside them on the ground. I crossed the road to take a picture of them. Then quietly, I came up close, trying not to disturb (打扰) them. I had the shot.8. Why did the author start her reporting?A．To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B．To explore the amazing land in thecountry.C．To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D．To share the happy moment during the trip.9. What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text?A．Forest fires. B．Climate change. C．Roadside zoos. D．Water pollution.10. What can we learn about these young tigers from paragraph 3?A．They prefer to stay indoors. B．They are badly treated.C．They get used to the changes. D．They are traded legally.11. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary?A．To praise her family for their effort. B．To explain what the animals suffered.C．To introduce a special kind of tigers. D．To show some tigers lead an easy life.People tend to use trees for papermaking. But maybe electronics (电子) engineers are missing out on something here. “It turns out that two major building blocks of wood have a lot of electrical qualities,” says Magnus Berggren, a professor at Linköping University.His team has been working to make parts for electronics from the forest. Right now, they’re focusing on two materials of trees. The first material is cellulose, which can make energy. Lignin, the second material, can store that energy, just as a battery does. The team has found when pressed, cellulose can produce electricity.Some device must then store the electricity until it’s needed. Batteries can do this. But batteries aren’t very green. They have harmful materials. That’s where lignin comes in.Batteries cause electrons to flow from one place to another, which can produce electricity. In a typical battery, one material must give electrons. The other must accept them. Lignin can do both. A weak acid (酸) encourages lignin to produce electrons. “With a metal wire (金属线) to guide those electrons, you’ll have electricity,” says Berggren.Berggren’s team use this quality to create its new lignin-based battery. Typical batteries use a metal wire as a path to guide the flow of electrons into or out of the device. But since Berggren wants to make a battery of the forest, he looks for a natural way. Once again, he turns to cellulose.This natural material can serve as a wire-like path for electrons. To make it work well, Berggren lines them with another chemical known as PEDOT, which isn’t from a tree. But when PEDOT is added to cellulose, they can conduct electricity like a wire. “With a weak acid, now you have a battery,” Berggren says. “And two of its three materials come from the forest.”Berggren can imagine one day having mobile phone batteries made largely from forest products. Tree-based electronics might also be useful in lighting.12. What is cellulose used to do in the study?A．Act as a weak acid. B．Collect rainwater.C．Produce electricity. D．Make quality paper.13. Which best describes the new battery?A．Well-received. B．Eco-friendly. C．Harmful. D．Heavy.14. What can we expect of tree-based electronics?A．They may change farming practices. B．They might save a lot of wood.C．They would serve the elderly. D．They could light the rooms.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Green Way to Make and Store Energy B．An Attempt to Raise Power Production C．Practical Suggestions on Planting Trees D．Recent Advances in Mobile PhonesThe Spring Festival is the most important celebration in China. There are some interesting Spring Festival traditions about Don’ts & Dos. Let’s take a look!Don’t take out the rubbishTaking out the rubbish, on that day, is said to stand for sweeping luck and wealth from the house. 16 .Don’t give a watch or clock as a giftA clock is an unpopular gift at any time of the year in China, as the phrase “giving a clock” sounds exactly like the Chinese words for “song zhong”. 17 , so it is an especially bad gift for the elderly.18During the festive period, you’ll see amazing decorations all over China, and your house should be no exception. 19 , you’ll be able to find red decorations everywhere during the Spring Festival.Popular decorations include red lanterns driving away bad luck, door couplets showing wishes for the coming year, and the character(fu) meaning good fortune.Give hongbao or fruitHongbao, or a red envelope containing money, is a popular gift for adults to give children.Fruit, especially tangerines or kumquats, are safe for friends. 20 because the word for tangerine(ju) sounds similar to the Chinese word for luck(ji).When Liam fell into the sea during a sailing lesson, he had no idea what he was in for. “I was shaking with _______,”said Liam in an interview. _______, he was wearing a life jacket, but the water was _______.The experience left him wondering if he could _______ something that could help people stay warm in water related accidents.

Rowling started to plot the adventures of Harry and his pals. With stoned streets, winding alleys and medieval (中世纪的) architecture, the city certainly has a few things in common with the settings from the books and films. She wrote the early chapters in various cafes around the city’s Old Towns.Day 2 Overview travel to Fort WilliamTravel by train from Edinburgh to Glasgow. From there, you can take the West Highland Line toFort William. This is a great way to see some famous spots from the window, including the mysterious Rannoch Moor, the place where Death Eaters board the train in the movie Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.Day 3 Overview all aboard the Hogwarts ExpressWitness the sweeping cinematic scenery of the movie Harry Potter by booking a seat on the Jacobite Steam Train. Stop for lunch in Mallaig and then make the return journey to Fort William. Please be sure to book the steam train in advance, as it is exceedingly popular. By the way, it runs seasonally. Day 4 Overview lakes and glens (峡谷)In the films, mysterious, misty landscapes frame the background of Harry’s tale, so it’s no surprise that the film producers chose the Highlands for many scenes. Spend a day wandering through some of these beautiful spots and feel the magical atmosphere.1. Where did J. K. Rowling create Harry Potter at first?A．In Edinburgh. B．In Mallaig.C．In Glasgow. D．In Fort William.2.

D．Biography.In 2016, inspired by a challenge called the “16 for 16”, where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she turned 16 if she stayed off social media, Lorna Klefsaas decided to up the ante (赌注) to two extra years and $200 more for her son, Sivert Klefsaas.As a 12-year-old, Sivert wasn’t using social media much. Th e only app he had prior to the bet was Snapchat —which he deleted a day after trying it out. So it wasn’t too difficult to live without social media, and he didn’t think about it much during the six years. “I wouldn’t say there was ever a time when I thou ght I was about to break,” he said. “As it went on, it was more of a pride thing.”Lorna never had to check for any secretly downloaded apps. “I got to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there. I had my friends to keep me up to date on the latest information or trends.” Sivert said. “It meant I had more time to focus on my grades and sports instead.”On February 19, 2022, Sivert claimed his prize. Now $1,800 richer, Sivert hasn’t thought about what to buy, but it’ll likely be something for his dorm room at the University of St. Paul, which he’ll attend in the fall.After Sivert’s success, Lorna turned to Facebook to share the challenge. She said it was some of the best money she ever spent. Other parents seemed interested in trying it out too. “We a re certainly not against social media, but it’s the healthy using of it,” Lorna noted. “It’s about not letting yourself get weighed down by it, or addicted to it, or affected by things that people post.”Now Sivert has a new perspective on staying off soci al media. “It was awesome. Ah, what about 6 more years? Thank you, Mom.”4. Why did Lorna bet her son?A．To challenge. B．To persuade. C．To punish. D．To imitate.5. How did Sivert respond to the bet?A．He almost became broken down.B．He jumped at the idea and stuck to it.C．He tried out his new app continuously.D．He just downloaded an app, Snapchat.6. How did Sivert get through the six years without social media?A．By being supervised by his mother.B．By watching dramas in the theater.C．By aiming at his academic standards.D．By dreaming of his prize with eagerness.7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage?A．A successful 18-for-18 bet. B．A social media campaign.C．Sivert, a boy who won the bet. D．Lorna, a mother who awarded her son.A new device works like a solar panel, except it doesn’t harvest energy from the sun. It captures energy from the cold night sky.A prototyp (雏形) of the device produced enough electricity at night to power a small light bulb. A bigger version might one day light rooms or charge phones. It also could power the electronics in remote or low resource areas that lack electricity.The device makes use of the temperature difference between Earth and outer space. It then uses that difference to create electricity. As long as one side of it is cooler than the other, the generator (发电机) can produce electricity. The cooler side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate. That plate is sealed beneath a transparent cover and surrounded with insulation (隔热材料) to keep out heat. The bottom of the generator is attached to an exposed aluminum plate. That plate is warmed by the local air. At night, the top plate can get a couple of degrees Celsius cooler than the bottom of the generator.Researchers tested a 20-centimeter prototype in Stanford, California at a clear December night. The generator produced up to about 25 mill watts of power per square meter of a device. That was enough power to light a small light emitting diode, or LED bulb. Further improvement might increase its production to at least 500 mill watts per square meter. To do that, the system might need more insulation around the cool top plate.The device also could help power remote weather stations or other environmental devices, says A swath Raman. He is a materials scientist who worked on the device at the University of California, Los Angeles. “This may be useful in polar regions that don’t see sunlight for months at a time,” Raman says. “If you have some low power loads and you need to pow er them through three months of darkness, this might be a way.”8. What do we know about the new device?A．It gains energy from the sun. B．Its been widely used in life.C．It is cooler than a solar panel. D．It might be popular in special areas.9. What does the author mainly talk about in paragraph 3?A．Application fields of the device. B．Significant effects of the device.C．The working principle of the device. D．The developing process of the device. 10. How can the device produce more electricity?A．By putting more insulation around the cool top plate.B．By covering the top plate with a transparent lid.C．By using it on extremely cold and clear nights.D．By attaching the bottom plate to a warm plate.11. What can be the best title for the text?A．A device using the cold night sky to produce electricityB．A device bringing new hope to people on the cold nightC．The difference between a solar panel and a new deviceD．The temperature difference between Earth and outer spaceAn all-girl team of university students from the Philippines has won a hackathon marking UNESCO’s World Engineering for Sustainable Development Day on 4 March. Ghia Luwalhati, Nicole Elizabeth Tan and Reaner Jacqueline Bool from the WONDERPETS team from Batangas State University in the Philippines used Metal Organic Frameworks, which are novel adsorbents (新型吸附剂), to turn recycled plastic bottles into a type of sponge (海绵) that is extremely porous (透水的), making it an effective means of removing pollutants from water. Better still, the sponge can be used again and again.Organized by the World Federation of Engineering Organizations with UNESCO support, the hackathon shows the inventiveness of young engineers when it comes to solving real-life problems. Some 125 teams from 23 countries around the world competed in the hackathon, with nine teams from six countries making it through to the finals. These countries are Australia, Canada, China, India, Kenya and the Philippines. Some 92% of participants were engineering students.During the first round of the hackathon, the teams were given 13 days to come up with a sustainable engineering solution to one of three challenges. These solutions display the resourcefulness of future engineers.All nine finalists have produced short videos to be shown during a 24-hour live streaming event on 4 March, World Engineering Day. The live streaming will begin in Sydney, Australia, at midday local time on 4 March and conclude 24 hours later at 7 pm local time on 4 March in San José, Costa Rica. The competition was judged by 40 engineers from 16 countries in the preliminary round and, in the final round, by six judges from UNESCO, Engineers Without Borders, the International Federation of Engineering Education Societies, the International Network of Women Engineers and Scientists, the Global Engineering Deans Council and the International Engineering Alliance.World Engineering Day was first celebrated in 2020. This annual UNESCO celebration was established to raise awareness of the basic role that engineering plays in cutting down the impact of climate change and advancing sustainable development.12. What has made a great contribution to the WONDERPETS team’s success?A．They are of great creativity. B．They are all women students.C．They come from the same university. D．They remove a type of used sponges. 13. What do we know about the participants?A．They found many real-life problems. B．Most of them entered the final round.C．Most of them majored in engineering. D．They were required to play short videos.14. What does the underlined word “preliminary” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Following. B．Opening. C．Latest. D．Present.15. What is the purpose of holding the competition?A．To call on girls to learn engineering. B．To research global climate change.C．To explore the value of resourcefulness. D．To stress the importance of engineering. There was a time when I was very concerned about what other people thought of me, especially when I was misunderstood and labeled incorrectly. 16 Of course, you need to do something to let go of that mental suffering if you are stuck in such a similar situation.●Identify and understand why you care. What makes what other people think of you so important? If other people's opinions cause you to worry, chances are that you have a tendency to be pleased. Being favored might be a winning formula for you in the past. 17 But if it doesn't come as expected, just be yourself.●Understand you can't control others. The reality is that you cannot control what another pe rson thinks of you. What most people don't understand is that we often form opinions of others based on associations we had in the past. And the bottom line is that it's none of your business what another person thinks of you. 18●Practice daily self-love and acceptance. Your situation may come from a concept that we are not as worthy as another person and our needs are not as important as theirs. Recognize you are equal to every other person. 19 We all have different roles but that does not make anyone more valuable asa human being.●Live a life that pleases you. Constant worry about what others think of you must create considerable stress and will impact your relationships, your health, and your peace of mind.● 20 You will not need to be concerned with the few people who just don't seem to understand you. You can live your fulfilling life and they can live theirs.I have been volunteering for Tri-County Wildlife Care (TCWC) for 7 years.

Unit 16.Part one. Air quality in Britain. 2. Exercises.1. Listen to the passage about air quality in Britain. And then briefly answer the following questions.Air quality in Britain has improved considerably in the last 30 years. Total emissions of smoke in the air have fallen by over 85 percent since 1960. London and other major cities no longer have the dense smoke led in smog of the 1950s. And in central London winter sunshine has increased by about 70 percent since the late 1950s. However new concerns have arisen, especially over the emissions from the growing number of motor vehicles, and their possible impact on health. Measures have consequently been adopted to reduce substantially emissions from new vehicles. The environment act of 1995 provides a new frame work for air quality management, including the publication by the government of the national strategy which was said air qualities standards and targets for the pollutants causing the most concern. This was issued for consultation in August 1996 containing air quality targets for the year 2005. The act also places new duties on local authorities to assess air quality in their boundaries, and to prepare action plans where standards are not met or are likely to be met in future. Pilot schemes are being taken forward in 14 areas before full implementation in April 1997. Earlier legislation allows local authorities to declare smoke control areas within which the emission of smoke from chimneys is in offends. About two thirds of the dwellings in connorbations are covered by smoke control orders around 6,340 are in force.2. Listen again and supply the missing information.Part two. Statements. 2. Exercises.

Listen to the following passage and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.M: You know everyone today is concerned about pollution. And scientists are talking a lot about one kind of pollution, acid rain.W: Why exactly is it called acid rain?M: It’s called acid rain because the rain or some other kind of precipitation has been polluted with acid.W: Where does the acid come from?M: From cars or factories, anything that burns coal or oil. These are made up mostly of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with water vapor to form sulphuric acid or nitric acid.W: You mean that when coal or oil is burned acid gets formed. And when it rains or snows the acid falls back on the earth?M: Exactly. That’s why it is so dangerous. Acid rain has been falling over areas of Northern American and Northern Europe. And if it isn’t checked the affect on the water supply and plant of animal life could be disastrous.W: This is something I should read more about.Questions:1) What is the best topic of this conversation?2) What energy sources cause acid rain?3) How is sulphuric acid formed?4) According to the man where is acid rain a problem?5) What action does the woman think she should take next?2. Is nuclear power safe? Listen to the following dialogue about the use of nuclear power, and then choose the best answer to each question you hear.M: The energy minster announced at a press conference yesterday the construction of 3 more nuclear power stations. These were forms of a vital part of the government’s energy plans for the next 2 decades. And it needed to satisfy the country’s growing demands for electricity. The plans were strongly criticized by opposition MPs as well as anti-nuclear and environmentalist groups.W: They must be absolutely mad. More nuclear power stations?M: OK, Jane. But we’ve got to get the energy from somewhere, haven’t we? We can’t just go on using oil and coal.W: Look, the main point is that they are just not safe. They are real menace. Every one of these things is an accident waiting to happen. Look at the Chernobyl forgotten to sake.M: Yes, OK. I agree there is a risk, of course there is. But it’s minimal. With modern technology nuclear reactors are much safer.W: Much safer? You must be joking. No, look at all that radio active waste they are dumping into the sea and underground, nobody really knows what will happen long term.M: That is a problem, sure. But it’s also true that nuclear energy is cheap and can produce electricity very quickly. Lots of countr ies have no alternatives. They don’t have any oil, coal, or anything. What are they suppose to do?W: Oh, come on. There are lots of possibilities. Well, quite a few. We just haven’t really looked at them seriously enough. There are solar energy and wind power and what’s called wave power. We still got a lot of coal.M: All right, but that all take time and money to develop. We need energy now. And nuclear power is the best alternative.W: Oh, I don’t believe this. I reckon it just crazy.Questions:1) Who made the government announcement yesterday?2) What is the government planning to do?3) How does the woman feel about this?4) What is the woman’s main argument?5) Which of the following statements is not true about the man’s argument?3. Building dams. Listen to a college report and then choose the best answer to each questionyou hear.Millions of acres of lands of all kinds of wild life made their homes have been ruined in recent years. This land has been ruined by federally approved water projects such as dams built in violation of the rarely enforced law passed in 1934. According to this law all projects to modify a body of water can be carried out only after a through study to discover what damage may be caused to the wild life in that area. Many states have not complied with the law. In three southern states, Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi, about 1.2 million acres of wild life habitats have been covered with water because of dams which have been constructed there. Another plan to build a dam in Tennessee was fought because it would flood large areas of wild life habitat particularly endangering a species of small fish called the snail darter. The proposed dam would also destroy several important archeological sites, including the ancestral capital of the ancient Cherryky Indian nation. To prevent any further destruction the public must become accurately informed about the advantages and disadvantages of our national water projects. Only then can we be assured the existing laws will be enforced.Questions:1) According to the speaker why have many animals and birds lost their homes?2) What type of projects does the 1934 law deal with?3) What is required by the rarely enforced 1934 law?4) According to the speaker how many southern states have lost land because of dams?5) Why did people fight a plan to build a dam in Tennessee?6) According to the speaker how can further destruction be prevented?7) According to the speaker who can prevent further destruction?Part four.

If the roads aren’t too busy, you can do it in about an hour. But if you g o during the rush hour, then of course, it can take much longer. It also depends on how well you know the roads.

Shoes can produce electricity
走在路上，突然时尚的iPod播放器没电了，你该怎么办？别着急，一家日本公司发明了一款可以为电子产品充电的新鞋。
一起来看看这款“马力强劲”的酷鞋吧！
We all know that walking is good for our health. But do you know walking can also produce electricity? A Japanese company says it has found a way to power the iPod music players just by walking.
The company is developing shoes that can produce electricity as people are walking. The shoes have a small generator (发电机) and water-filled soles (鞋底). When people are walking, the steps make the water move fast. Then the small generator changes the power into electric power. Now the shoes can produce enough electricity to run an iPod music player as long as the wearer keeps walking.
The company predicts the shoes will be able to produce enough electricity to run a mobile phone in the future. “You will be able to power your mobile phone or talk on it if you connect the phone to your shoes and just keep walking,” says the spokesman (发言人) of the company.
What will this kind of shoes be like? We are not sure. But one thing is sure —when we have such a pair of shoes, we will never worry about our mobile phones running out of power.

2. run out of 意为“用完”。
例如：
We are running out of water.。
