录音中指出通过使用hybrid nanorod polymer composite可以极大降低利用太阳能的成本，虽然目前为止nanorod polymer cells的转换效率只是2%多一点，但是研究者相信效率能得到极大提高，由此可推断太阳能在普通家庭的使用是有望实现的。
【录音原文】
Millions of people around the world would like to heat their homes and run household appliances with solar power. But the cost of doing so puts it out of the question. The first problem is that the cells convert only 10％-15％of the radiation from the sun into energy. The second is that the photovoltaic (PV) material used is a form of silicon that has to be made under high vacuum conditions and heated in special kilns to 1.400℃. That makes photovoltaic solar cells horrendously expensive.
How to bring the high costs down to a more manageable amount? One answer that is attracting attention is to use carbon “nanorods”, superstrong cylinders of carbon atoms that are 75, 000 times thinner than a human hair. If scientists succeed in their efforts, carbon-based solar cells could cost as little as a tenth of the price of today’s silicon-based versions.
By placing the flexible nanorods in a polymer solution, researchers found it could produce a composite material that had the elasticity and pliability of plastic, but capable converting solar rays into electrical energy. Inorganic nanocrystals behave a lot like polymers. For instance, they can be processed while still in the form of a solution. Scientists had been working with plastics as an alternative to conventional solar cells, but found that they did not conduct electricity particularly well.
Compared with the arduous process of fabricating conventional solar cells, making the hybrid nanorod polymer composite would be more like manufacturing cheap plastic laminates. That could solve the cost part of the solar energy equation. But what about the conversion efficiency? So far, the conversion efficiency of nanorod polymer cells has been little more than 2％. However, researchers are confident that the efficiency can be improved considerably.

Passage Four
How can we get rid of garbage?Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?
These are two important questions that many people are asking today．Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time,They suggest using garbage as an energy source,and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage．
For a long time,people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land．Now,empty land is scarce．But more and more garbage is produced each year．However,garbage can be a good fuel to use．The things in garbage do not look like coal,petroleum,or natural gas;but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels．As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies,we might be able to use garbage as an energy source．Burning garbage is not a new idea．Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years．The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water．The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby,buildings．In Paris,France,some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year．The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil．
Our fossil fuel supplies are limited．Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs．This method could also reduce the amount if garbage piling up on the earth．
According to the passage,using garbage is______A.for heating in France each year
B.a new way in a modern society
C.a good way to solve the problem of energy shortage
D.too expensive as an energy source答案：C解析：暂无解析 -

Green Energy
1.Green energy is energy that is produced in a manner that has, less of a negative impact to the environment than energy sources like fossil fuels,which are often produced with harmful side effects."Greener" types of energy that often come to mind are solar,wind,geothermal and hydro energy.There are several more,even including nuclear energy,that is sometimes considered a green energy source because of its lower waste output relative to energy sources such as coal or oil.
2.The goal of green energy is generally to create power with as little pollution as possible produced as a by-product. Every form of energy collection will result in some pollution,but those that are green are known to cause less than those that are not. Most people who advocate greener sources of energy claim that the result of worldwide use of green energy will result in the ability to preserve the planet for a longer time.Greenhouse gases,a by-product of traditional sources of energy such as fossil fuels are thought to be causing global warming,or the process of the Earth heating up at an accelerated pace.
3.It is not completely necessary for green energy sources to come from places like solar or wind fields,which are examples of green"power plants".A green energy source can be a building that is designed in a way that it keeps itself cool in the daytime and heated in the night through its architectural design rather than having an air-conditioning or a heating system. The conservation of energy through architectural（建筑学的）design becomes, itself, a green energy source. Similarly, many sources of green energy can come directly from the area in which the energy is needed rather than from an outside source.
4.One of the goals of green energy technology is to take existing fossil fuel energy technology and clean it up so it is produced more cleanly. One such case is that of clean coal technology,where scientists are trying to find ways to extract energy from coal and other fossil fuels without all of the harmful side effects.The success of such these types of green energy depend upon the ability to extract harmful by-products from fossil fuels while not only being energy efficient,but by being cost efficient as well.Paragraph 3______
A:Why Do We Develop Green Energy?
B:What Is the Goal of Green Energy?
C:What Is the Weakness of Green Energy?
D:What Is a Green Energy?
E:How Much Does the Green Energy Cost Every Year?
F: How Many Kinds of Green Energy We Can Take Use of?答案：F解析：文中第一段第一句中Green energy is energy that is…这种表述方法符合科学说明文的记叙方式，首先对一个名词进行科学定义，所以本题答案为D。
文中第二段第二句：Every form of energy collection will result in some pollution, but those that are green are known to cause less than those that are not．任何形式的能源收集都会产生一定程度的污染，但是绿色能源比其他能源造成的污染要少。可以推测出这一段是在讲绿色能源的优点，也就是说为什么要发展绿色能源，所以选择A。
文中第三段第一句：It is not completely necessary for green energy sources to come from places like solar or wind fields．可以得出，本段主要讲述了我们传统认为的新能源，还有其他种类的新能源，所以选择F。
文中第四段第一句：One of the goals of green energy technology is to take existing fossil fuel energy technology and clean it up so it is produced more cleanly．可以得出，该段主要是在讲新能源的目标和意义。
第一段最后一句：There are several more, even including nuclear energy, that is sometimes considered a green energy source because of its lower waste output relative to energy sources such as coal or oil．可知，核能经常被视作绿色能源，因为相比煤和石油，它的能源输出效率更高。由此可以得出选项C正确。
文中第二段最后一句：Greenhouse gases, a by-product of traditional sources of energy such as fossil fuels are thought to be causing global warming,or the process of the Earth heating up at an accelerated pace.温室气体，一种诸如化石能源的传统能源产生的副产品被认为会导致全球变暖，甚至使地球自转速度加快。因此可以得出A选项正确。
第三段最后两句：The conservation of energy through architectural design becomes,itself,a green energy source .Similarly,many sources of green energy can come directly from the area in which the energy is needed rather than from an outside source．通过自身的建筑设计来保存能源本身就是一种绿色能源的来源。同样道理，许多绿色能源可以直接来源于有能源需求的地区内部而不是外部。由此可以得出D选项正确。
最后一段最后两句：The success of such these types of green energy depend upon the ability to extract harmful by-products from fossil fuels while not only being energy efficient, but by being cost efficient as well．这些清洁能源技术的成功取决于人们从化石燃料中排除有害副产品、高效利用能源、同时降低成本的能力。由此可以得出E选项正确。 -

Most people who advocate greener sources of energy claim that the result of worldwide use of green energy will result in the ability to preserve the planet for a longer time.Greenhouse gases,a by-product of traditional sources of energy such as fossil fuels are thought to be causing global warming,or the process of the Earth heating up at an accelerated pace.
3.It is not completely necessary for green energy sources to come from places like solar or wind fields,which are examples of green"power plants".A green energy source can be a building that is designed in a way that it keeps itself cool in the daytime and heated in the night through its architectural design rather than having an air-conditioning or a heating system. The conservation of energy through architectural（建筑学的）design becomes, itself, a green energy source. Similarly, many sources of green energy can come directly from the area in which the energy is needed rather than from an outside source.
4.One of the goals of green energy technology is to take existing fossil fuel energy technology and clean it up so it is produced more cleanly. One such case is that of clean coal technology,where scientists are trying to find ways to extract energy from coal and other fossil fuels without all of the harmful side effects.The success of such these types of green energy depend upon the ability to extract harmful by-products from fossil fuels while not only being energy efficient,but by being cost efficient as well.Nuclear energy is sometimes considered a green energy source because of its______.
A:global warming
B:carbon emission
C:lower waste output
D:a green energy source
E:fossil fuels
F: clean fuels答案：C解析：文中第一段第一句中Green energy is energy that is…这种表述方法符合科学说明文的记叙方式，首先对一个名词进行科学定义，所以本题答案为D。
文中第二段第二句：Every form of energy collection will result in some pollution, but those that are green are known to cause less than those that are not．任何形式的能源收集都会产生一定程度的污染，但是绿色能源比其他能源造成的污染要少。可以推测出这一段是在讲绿色能源的优点，也就是说为什么要发展绿色能源，所以选择A。
文中第三段第一句：It is not completely necessary for green energy sources to come from places like solar or wind fields．可以得出，本段主要讲述了我们传统认为的新能源，还有其他种类的新能源，所以选择F。
文中第四段第一句：One of the goals of green energy technology is to take existing fossil fuel energy technology and clean it up so it is produced more cleanly．可以得出，该段主要是在讲新能源的目标和意义。
第一段最后一句：There are several more, even including nuclear energy, that is sometimes considered a green energy source because of its lower waste output relative to energy sources such as coal or oil．可知，核能经常被视作绿色能源，因为相比煤和石油，它的能源输出效率更高。由此可以得出选项C正确。
文中第二段最后一句：Greenhouse gases, a by-product of traditional sources of energy such as fossil fuels are thought to be causing global warming,or the process of the Earth heating up at an accelerated pace.温室气体，一种诸如化石能源的传统能源产生的副产品被认为会导致全球变暖，甚至使地球自转速度加快。因此可以得出A选项正确。
第三段最后两句：The conservation of energy through architectural design becomes,itself,a green energy source .Similarly,many sources of green energy can come directly from the area in which the energy is needed rather than from an outside source．通过自身的建筑设计来保存能源本身就是一种绿色能源的来源。同样道理，许多绿色能源可以直接来源于有能源需求的地区内部而不是外部。由此可以得出D选项正确。
最后一段最后两句：The success of such these types of green energy depend upon the ability to extract harmful by-products from fossil fuels while not only being energy efficient, but by being cost efficient as well．这些清洁能源技术的成功取决于人们从化石燃料中排除有害副产品、高效利用能源、同时降低成本的能力。由此可以得出E选项正确。 -

electromagnetic wave.When it is absorbed by matter,heat is produced.Wayes of infrared and visible light
have more energy than waves of radio,television,or radar. Ultraviolet rays（紫外线）and X-rays are eleetro-
magnetic waves with even greater amounts of energy.Infrared radiation is used in cooking food and heating
buildings.Sunlight and electric lights are part of our requirements for normal living. Ultraviolet radiation is
useful in killing certain disease organisms.X-rays and gamma rays have so much energy that they travel right
through solid objects.They can be used to detect and treat cancer。 X-rays are used in industry to find hidden
cracks in metal,and in medicine to reveal broken bones.
4 Usually we use electricity to generate electromagnetic energy.The source of most of our energy is the
sun.Heat from the sun causes water to evaporate.When the water falls to the earth as rain,some of it is
trapped behind dams and then used to operate electric generators,Other generators are powered by coal,but
the energy stored in coal came from the sun,too.
5 Until recently,the source of the tremendous amount of energy given off by the sun was a puzzle.If
the sun depended on chemical reactions,it would have used up all its energy long ago.Experiments with
electromagnetic radiation led to the theory that mass can be converted into energy．入bout forty years after the
theory was proposed , nuclear energy was harnessed（利用）by man. Chemical energy comes from electron
（电子）rearrangement. Nuclear energy comes from a change in the nucleus of an atom. Compared with chemi-
cal reactions,nuclear reactions release millions of times more energy per pound of fuel.We now believe that
the sun's energy comes from the nuclear reactions in which hydrogen is changed into helium（氦）.
6 Nuclear energy is beginning to compete with coal as an economical source of power to generate elec-
tricity.It is also being used to operate engines in large ships.Scientists continue to seek new and better
methods of obtaining and using energy.When electron rearrangement takes place_______________.
A:electromagnetic energy

第23题：
单选题Hiper is being planned ______.Ato compete with NIF
Bbecause NIF experiment, even successful, would not produce enough energy to run a nuclear fusion plant
Cto use the same laser technology but on a larger scale
Dto demonstrate the feasibility of nuclear fusion
正确答案： B解析：
题目问的是：Hiper正在被设计的原因是什么？根据文章的倒数第7段中的“This is right for the demonstration of the physics ‘proof of principle’, but does not meet the requirement of a laser fusion power plant.”可知，试验很好地演示了物理原理的证明，但是不能满足激光核聚变动力装置的需求，也就是说没有足够的能量来运作核聚变装置。故选B。
