Read the passage below and choose the best answer (A, B, C or D): Almost all our energy comes from oil, coal, and natural gas. We call them fossil fuels. The earth’s fossil fuels are running out. What will happen when there are no oil, coal, and gas on earth? Scientists are trying to find and use other alternative sources of energy. We can use energy from the sun, the wind, and the water. Solar energy is unlimited. The sun supplies all the energy used to grow plants, to evaporate water for rain, and to maintain the temperature of the planet. All are necessary for human life. If we are able to collect solar energy, we will be sure to have this abundant source of power. Another source of energy from nature is the wind. Wind power is clean and plentiful. Energy from the wind has been used for centuries to move ship, grind grain, pump water and do other forms of work. In more recent times, wind has been used to generate electricity. Water can also provide power. For a long time, people have used water to power machine for the textile industry. Today waterpower is mostly used to generate electricity. 1.
