正文翻譯:
可持續(xù)技術在當今世界變得越來越重要。它提供了滿足當前需求的方式,同時又不損害后代滿足自身需求的能力。太陽能就是這樣一種技術,它將陽光轉化為電能。太陽能電池板可以安裝在屋頂或開闊地帶,為家庭和企業(yè)提供清潔能源。
另一種可持續(xù)技術是水的循環(huán)利用。隨著全球人口的增長,對淡水的需求也在增加。水循環(huán)利用系統(tǒng)可以處理用過的水并使其可再利用,從而減輕對自然水源的壓力。
生物可降解產品也越來越受歡迎。這些物品可以通過生物過程自然分解,從而減少送往垃圾填埋場的廢物量。
答案解析:
(1)【答案】A
【解析】根據(jù)句意“它提供了滿足當前需求的方式”,應選A項“provides”(提供)。其他選項“eliminates”(消除)、“explores”(探索)和“denies”(否認)均不符合句意。
(2)【答案】A
【解析】太陽能將陽光轉化為電能,所以應選A項“converts”(轉化)。B項“absorbs”(吸收)雖然與太陽能有關,但不符合轉化電能的語境;C項“reflects”(反射)和D項“stores”(儲存)均不符合句意。
(3)【答案】C
【解析】太陽能電池板的作用是產生能源,所以應選C項“generating”(產生)。A項“consuming”(消耗)、B項“conserving”(保存)和D項“guaranteeing”(保證)均不符合句意。
(4)【答案】C
【解析】隨著全球人口的增長,對淡水的需求增加,所以應選C項“increases”(增加)。A項“declines”(下降)、B項“fluctuates”(波動)和D項“remains”(保持)均不符合句意。
(5)【答案】C
【解析】生物可降解產品是通過生物過程自然分解的,所以應選C項“biological”(生物的)。A項“chemical”(化學的)、B項“mechanical”(機械的)和D項“physical”(物理的)均不符合句意。
