The photo-voltaic cells absorb photons from sunlight This action generates heat, which the cells then convert into electrical energy and stores in an on-board battery This process of conversion is called the photovoltaic effect Not surprisingly, such a vehicle has zero emissions, and is very environmentally friendly Unfortunately, at the moment photovoltaic cells are extremely inefficient, yet as time progresses the efficiency of these cells will grow This will make solar energy and solar cars the fuel and car of the future-a closer reality According to the text, A up to now, we have designed some solar cars B solar cars have been very popular for many years C we have not produced any solar cars yet D solar cars are not as much appreciated as other kinds of car A solar car is supplied power from A gas B petrol C photovoltaic cells D electricity Which can not help us to solve the problem of energy crisis?

each sentence below By the year 2005, the Earth could lose as many as one fifth of all species known to exist today In recent centuries, hundreds of species have disappeared, almost always as a result of human activities The passenger pigeon, one familiar example, was a source of food until excessive hunting and habitat loss caused its extinction in 94 The North American bison, whose populations were decimated by settlers and market hunters in the 800s, came close to sharing the same fate Bison survive today only because of the efforts of early conservationists Today, species require such efforts more urgently than ever An essential task that falls to presentday conservationists is to determine which species are most, endangered, so that conservation resources’ can be applied where action is needed most Species are categorized by the degree to which their survival in the wild is threatened World Wildlife Fund offers a sampling of animals and plants that fall mainly within the two most serious categories of- threat: critically endangered and endangered What threatens these species’ existence? Some of the top threats are habitat destruction by unsustainable logging and ever-encroaching human settlement; pollution of water, soil, and air by toxic chemicals; unnatural climate (150) changes due to fossil fuel use; unmanaged fishing that exhausts fish stocks; and illegal hunting to supply the demand for skins, hides, traditional medicines, food, and tourist souvenirs The list which conservationists presents only a fraction of the species at risk of extinction today and does not include thousands of species whose status we not yet know Hundreds of species without common names have been left out, which means that while many mammals are on this list, only a few insects and mollusks are included Species listed here range from the largest animal on Earth, the blue whale, to the majestic tiger, to the humble thick-shell pond snail Large or small, beautiful or ugly, all species play a role in the complex circle of life All of us depend on the natural resources of our planet Each time a species is lost, the complexity, natural balance, and beauty of our world is diminished And what threatens plants and animals ultimately threatens people as well According to the first paragraph A species extinction is only caused by hunting B human beings protect wife life much more than they harm to them C the main cause of species extinction is human activities D we can stop radically species extinction by 2005 The North American bison A was completely extinct in 800s B was not the aim of human hunting C was raised by settlers in 800s D has escaped from extinction thanks to conservationists Species are categorized A to prevent hunting B to provide food C to destroy their habitats D to give preferential right to conserve Which sentence is true? A Medicine is not a factor to cause species extinction B The list which conservationists present does not include all kinds of species C Pollution does nothing to species extinction D Conservationists have good knowledge of all kinds of mollusks According to the last paragraph, A species extinction has no relationship to human beings B what threaten plants and animals can nothing to human beings C human beings depend on natural resources to survive D not every, species has a role in the circle of life Choose the best answer to complete each sentence or replace the underlined words or phrases Many people are not interested reading books as much as seeing films A in B with C for D about We spend more time watching TV than reading books But fact TV has not kill reading A for B upon C at D in Books are a wonderful source knowledge and pleasure A with B of C in D about Mary enjoys reading , adventure, and whatever else she can either buy or borrow A romance B romantic C romanticize D romanticism The novel has had a tremendous impact on and publishing markets A entertain B entertainer C entertainment D entertainingly Tommy likes the books that he borrowed from the school library very much He has read them with A entertainment B romance C tasting D pleasure It is important students to read as many books as possible A up B about C to D for Who does the book belong ?

below Until the 19th century, the denial of equal rights to women met with only occasional protest and drew little attention from most people Because most women lacked the educational and economic resources that would enable them to challenge the prevailing social order, women generally accepted their inferior (180) status as their only option At this time, women shared these disadvantages with the majority of working class men, as many social, economic, and political rights were restricted to the wealthy elite In the 19th century, as governments in Europe and North America began to draft new laws guaranteeing equality among men, significant numbers of women – and some men – began to demand that women be accorded equal rights as well At the same time, the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America further divided the roles of men and women Before the Industrial Revolution most people worked in farming or crafts-making, both of which took place in or near the home Men and women usually divided the numerous tasks among themselves and their children Industrialization led male workers to seek employment outside of the home in factories and other large-scale enterprises The growing split between home and work reinforced the idea that women’s “rightful place” was in the home, while men belonged in the public world of employment and politics Organized efforts by women to achieve greater rights occurred in two major waves The first wave began around the mid-19th century, when women in the United States and elsewhere campaigned to gain suffrage – that is, the right to vote This wave lasted until the 1920s, when several countries granted women suffrage Why did the denial of equal rights to women draw little attention from the society until the
