　　Energy Cycle

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful? This might be called lazi-ness, but Dr. Kleitman has anew explanation. He has proved that everyone has adaily energycycle.

During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're "hot". That'strue. The time of day when you feel most energeticis when your cycle of body temperature is at itspeak. For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon orevening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as : "Getup, John! You'll be late for work again!" The explanation to the is that John isat his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbandsand wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can't change your energy cycle, you can learn to make your life fit to it better. n help, Dr. Kleitman ves. MayB.e you're sleepy in the evening but you must stay up lateanyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by lly staying up later than you want to. Ifyour energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, risebeforeyour usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at yourlow point.

Get off to aslow start which saves your energy. Get up with aleisurely yawn and stretch. Siton the edge of the bed aminute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble of search-ing for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work inthe afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

参考解析： 答案的线索在第二段最后一句话“Much family quarrelling ends when husbands andwives realize what these energy cycles mean，and which cycle each member of the familvhas.”也就是说，如果丈夫和妻子能明白不同的能量周期是怎么回事，家里每个人有什么样的能量周期，很多家庭争吵就不会发生。所以正确答案是A。

Renewable Energy Sources

Today petroleum( 石油) provides around 40% of the world's energy needs, mostly fuellingautomobiles. Coal is still used, mostly in power stations, to cover one-quarter of our energy needs,but it is the least efficient, unhealthiest and most environmentally damaging fossil fuel( 矿物燃料). Natural gas reserves could fill some of the gap from oil, but reserves of that will not last into the 22nd century either. Most experts predict we will exhaust easily accessible reserves within 50 years. Less-polluting renewable energy sources offer 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, sup-plying around 20% of world electricity. China's Three Gorges Dam is the largest ever. At five timesthe size of the U. S. 's Hoover Dam, its 26 (涡轮机) will generate the equivalent energyof 18 coal-fired power stations. It will satisfy 3% of China's entire electricity demand.

In 2003, the first commercial power station to use tidal ( 潮汐的) currents in the open seaopened in Norway. It is designed like windmill( 风车), but others take the form of .

As prices fall, wind power has become the fastest growing type of electricity generation--quadrupling(翻两番) worldwide between 1999 and 2005. Modern wind farms consist of turbinesthat generate electricity. Though it will be more expensive, there is more than enough wind to pro-vide the world's entire energy needs. Wind farms come in onshore and offshore forms. They can of-ten end up at spots of natural beauty, and are often unpopular with residents. And turbines are nottotally harmless--they can interfere with radar, alter climate and kill seabirds. Scotland is build-ing Europe's largest wind farm, which will power 200,000 homes. The U. K. 's goal is to generateone-fifth of power from renewable sources, mainly wind, by 2020. but this may cause problems,because wind is unreliable.

According to the passage, which of the following is the most polluting energy resource?

oleum.

.

ral gas.

r.
