23、   In the search for clean, renewable energy to meet our ever-increasing needs, wind power might seem to be the perfect option. Since ancient times, wind power has been used to move ships, pump water and grind grain. Around the end of the 19th century, the invention of the wind turbine（涡轮机）made it possible to use wind to generate electricity. Now large-scale installations of wind turbines, called wind farms, create and develop clean electricity for people around the world. Yet despite the advantages that wind energy offers, challenges to using this renewable resource can be found.

The first advantage of wind power is that it truly is a renewable resource. No matter how much wind we use to generate electricity, we will never deplete the supply. This is its greatest advantage over non-renewable resources like coal or oil. However, wind does not provide a constant supply of energy. Even the windiest places on Earth have periods of calm. Without a strong wind, wind turbines are not able to produce electricity. That means that wind power isn’t feasible as a single source of electricity. It can only work with other sources that supply power.

Wind power is a clean source of energy, meaning it produces electricity without environmentally harmful missions. This is in contrast to conventional power plants that burn fuel to generate power, thereby producing pollution. But that isn’t to say that wind power doesn’t have an environment impact. The large spinning blades of a wind turbine can be fatal to birds and bats. The turbines also create noise pollution. The sound produced through normal operation can be annoying or disturbing to people that live near.

Fortunately, wind turbines are particularly well suited for areas far from homes and cities. The large towers that provide the base for the wind turbines also have a small footprint, which means that they don’t take up a lot of space. With all of the challenges of wind power, it obviously cannot be the sole solution for clean energy production. But the advantages of wind power generation shouldn’t be forgotten in the search for clean, renewable energy.

【1】What do we know about wind energy from the text?

A．Creating electricity with the wind is a non-renewable method of power generation.

B．Wind power has many advantages because it can be the only method we use to create electricity.

C．Although wind energy is a clean source of energy, it has an impact on the environment.

D．The wind turbines are ideal for areas nearby homes and cities.

【2】What does the underlined word “feasible” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A．important

B．accessible

C．necessary

D．reasonable

【3】Which word best describes the author’s attitude to wind energy?

A．Skeptical

B．Objective

C．Ambiguous

D．Disapproving

【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．The Advantages and Challenges of Wind Energy.

B．Wind Energy: A Clean and Renewable Source.

C．The Development and Utilization of Wind Energy.

D．The Prospect of Wind Energy.

24、Building relationships and working successfully with different cultural backgrounds can seem like a major challenge.【1】The key to making them work is cultural competence.
