Section 3: Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.
In this area of increasing and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater priority on
harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately, there are many readily available, renewable resources that are
both cost-effective and earth-friendly. Two such resources are solar 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 converting 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, the use of solar system is
growing steadily.
Another alternative energy source is
geothermal power which creates energy
trapping 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 nun a generator, which
produces electricity. Geothermal energy is
5,000 times more abundant than the entire
known supply of fossil fuel sources and as
with solar power, the technology needed to
utilize geothermal
energy is fairly simple. A prime example of effective geothermal use is Iceland, a region of high geothermal
activity where there are over 80 percent of private homes heated by geothermal power.
Solar and geothermal energy sources are just two of the 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.
61. What is the main topic of this passage?
A. The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources.
B. Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized.
C. How energy resources are trapped from nature.
D. Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide.
62. What best describes the author's purpose in writing the passage? A. To warn people about the hazard of fossil
fuel use.
B. To inform people of the benefits of developing alternative energy sources.
C. To describe the advantages and
disadvantages of alternative
energy use.
D. To outline the problems and
solutions connected with global
warming.
63. According to the passage, how is solar
energy production similar to
geothermal energy production? A.
They both require the use of generator.
B. They both use heat from the
earth's surface.
C. They both require fairly simple technology. D. They are both conventional and costly.
64. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE about solar power? A. There is very
little of it available in Iceland.
B. It is being used in 100,000 private homes worldwide.
C. It is 6,000 times more powerful than the energy needs of the world.
D. There is enough of it to far exceed the energy needs of the world.
65. What does the word "which" in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. An alternative energy resource B. A machine for generating
electricity
C. Geothermal power D. The
use of photovoltaic cells
66. What can be inferred from the use of geothermal energy in Iceland?
A. It is a widely used form of energy for heating homes
B. Twenty percent of the geothermal energy generated is used to heat the
earth.
C. It is not effective for use in private homes.
D. It is 80 times more effective than traditional forms of fuel use.
67. The word "conventional" in paragraph 4 can be replaced by _________
Commented [WU61]: . Geothermal energy is 5,000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel sources and as with solar power, the
technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple
Commented [WU62]: Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy

Commented [WU64]: A prime example of effective geothermal use is Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity where there are over 80 percent of
private homes heated by geothermal power.
68. It is stated in the passage that ___________
A. An increased number of countries are using solar energy.
B. Heat coming from inside the earth can be utilized almost everywhere on earth.
C. Only solar energy is environmentally friendly.
D. Geothermal heat can provide
80% of power needs in Iceland,
