In the twentieth - century, people depend on unlimited energy to power their everyday lives. A wide range of energy-run devices and modern conveniences are taken for granted, and although it may seem that we will never be in danger of living without those conveniences, the fact is that many supplies of energy are dwindling rapidly. Scientists are constantly searching for new sources of power to keep modern society running. Whether future populations will continue to enjoy the benefits of abundant energy will depend on the success of this search.

Coal, oil, and natural gas supply modern civilization with most of its power. However, not only are supplies of these fuels limited, but they are a major source of pollution. If the energy demands of the future are to be met without seriously harming the environment, existing alternative energy sources must be improved or further explored and developed. These include nuclear, water, solar, wind, and geothermal power, as well as energy from new, nonpolluting types of fuels. Each of these alternatives, however, has advantages and disadvantages.

Nuclear power plants efficiently produce large amounts of electricity without polluting the atmosphere; however, they are costly to build and maintain, and they pose the daunting problem of what to do with nuclear waste. Hydroelectric power is inexpensive and environmentally safe, but impractical for communities located far from moving water. Harnessing energy from tides and waves has similar drawbacks. Solar power holds great promise for the future but methods of collecting and concentrating sunlight are as yet inefficient, as are methods of harnessing wind power.

Every source of energy has its disadvantages. One way to minimize them is to use less energy. Conservation efforts coupled with renewable energy resources, such as a combination of solar, water, wind, and geothermal energy and alternative fuels, such as alcohol and hydrogen, will ensure supplies of clean, affordable energy for humanity's future.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 38 to 42

  In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater priority on harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately, there are a number of readily available, renewable resources that are both cost- effective and earth - friendly. Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power. Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over. And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity. In the US alone, more than 100, 000 homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles. And in other parts of the world, including many developing countries, the use of solar system is growing steadily.

  Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth. Hot water and steam that are trapped in underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which is produces electricity. Geothermal energy is 50,000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources. And as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple. A prime example of effective geothermal use is in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity where over 80 percent of private homes are heated by geothermal power. Solar and geothermal energy are just two of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources. The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on global scale.

According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources?

A. Because fossil fuels are no longer available. 

B. Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth. 

C. Because they are free and available worldwide. 

D. Because conventional energy resources are being depleted, and they cause environmental damage.

Đáp án D.

Dịch nghĩa: Theo bài văn, vì sao chúng ta nên cân nhắc sử dụng nguồn năng lượng thay thế?

A. Vì năng lượng hoá thạch không còn có sẵn nữa.

B. Vì nóng lên toàn cầu đã tăng lượng lớn ánh nắng mặt trời mà đến được trái đất.

C. Vì chúng miễn phí và có sẵn trên toàn thế giới.

D. Vì nguồn năng lượng thường đang cạn kiệt, và chúng gây hại cho môi trường.

Tạm dịch: Những nỗ lực bảo tồn cùng với các nguồn năng lượng tái tạo, như sự kết hợp của năng lượng mặt trời, nước, gió và địa nhiệt và nhiên liệu thay thế, như rượu và hydro, sẽ đảm bảo cung cấp năng lượng sạch, giá cả phải chăng cho tương lai của nhân loại.

Chọn A

Dịch bài đọc:

Trong thế kỷ XX, con người phụ thuộc vào năng lượng vô hạn để cung cấp năng lượng cho cuộc sống hàng ngày của họ. Một loạt các thiết bị chạy năng lượng và tiện nghi hiện đại được coi là điều hiển nhiên, và mặc dù có vẻ như chúng ta sẽ không bao giờ gặp nguy hiểm khi sống nếu không có những tiện ích đó, thực tế là nhiều nguồn cung cấp năng lượng đang cạn kiệt nhanh chóng. Các nhà khoa học không ngừng tìm kiếm các nguồn năng lượng mới để duy trì xã hội hiện đại. Việc dân số trong tương lai có tiếp tục được hưởng những lợi ích của năng lượng dồi dào hay không sẽ phụ thuộc vào sự thành công của tìm kiếm này.

Than, dầu, và khí đốt tự nhiên cung cấp hầu hết năng lượng của nó cho nền văn minh hiện đại. Tuy nhiên, không chỉ nguồn cung cấp các loại nhiên liệu này bị hạn chế mà chúng còn là nguồn gây ô nhiễm chính. Nếu nhu cầu năng lượng trong tương lai được đáp ứng mà không gây hại nghiêm trọng đến môi trường, các nguồn năng lượng thay thế hiện tại phải được cải thiện hoặc tiếp tục khám phá và phát triển. Chúng bao gồm hạt nhân, nước, năng lượng mặt trời, gió và năng lượng địa nhiệt, cũng như năng lượng từ các loại nhiên liệu mới, không gây ô nhiễm. Tuy nhiên, mỗi phương án đều có ưu điểm và nhược điểm.

Các nhà máy điện hạt nhân sản xuất một cách hiệu quả lượng điện lớn mà không gây ô nhiễm bầu khí quyển; tuy nhiên, chúng rất tốn kém để xây dựng và bảo trì, và chúng đặt ra vấn đề nan giải là phải làm gì với chất thải hạt nhân. Thủy điện là không tốn kém và an toàn với môi trường, nhưng không thực tế đối với các cộng đồng ở xa nước di chuyển. Khai thác năng lượng từ thủy triều và sóng có nhược điểm tương tự. Năng lượng mặt trời hứa hẹn rất lớn cho tương lai nhưng các phương pháp thu thập và tập trung ánh sáng mặt trời vẫn chưa hiệu quả, cũng như các phương pháp khai thác năng lượng gió.

Mỗi nguồn năng lượng đều có nhược điểm của nó. Một cách để giảm thiểu chúng là sử dụng ít năng lượng hơn. Những nỗ lực bảo tồn cùng với các nguồn năng lượng tái tạo, như sự kết hợp của năng lượng mặt trời, nước, gió và địa nhiệt và nhiên liệu thay thế, như rượu và hydro, sẽ đảm bảo cung cấp năng lượng sạch, giá cả phải chăng cho tương lai của nhân loại.
