We’ve used the wind as an energy source for a long time. The Babylonians and Chinese were using wind power to pump water for irrigating crops 4,000 years ago, and sailing boats were around long before that. Wind power was used in the Middle Ages, in Europe, to grind(磨碎) corn, which is where the term “windmill” comes from.

We can use the energy in the wind by building a tall tower, with a large propellor(螺旋桨) on the top. The wind blows the propellor round, which turns a generator to produce electricity. We tend to build many of these towers together, to make a “wind farm” and produce more electricity. The more towers, the more wind, and the larger the propellors, the more electricity we can make. It’s only worth building wind farms in places that have strong, steady winds, although boats and caravans(大篷车)increasingly have small wind generators to help keep their batteries charged.
The best places for wind farms are in coastal areas, at the tops of rounded hills, open plains and gaps in mountains — places where the wind is strong and reliable. Some are offshore. To be worthwhile, you need an average wind speed of around 25 km/h. Most wind farms in the UK are in Cornwall or Wales. Isolated places such as farms may have their own wind generators. In California, several “wind farms” supply electricity to homes around Los Angeles.
The propellors are large, to obtain energy from the largest possible volume of air. The blades can be angled to cope with varying wind speeds. Some designs use vertical turbines (垂直涡轮机), which don’t need to be turned to face the wind. The towers are tall, to get the propellors as high as possible, up to where the wind is stronger. This means that the land beneath can still be used for farming. 
The first paragraph aims to introduce to us _______.

A.the function of wind power B.the source of wind power
C.the nations using wind power D.the history of using wind power

The best places for building the wind farm are places where _______.

A.boats and caravans can often be seen B.isolated farms don’t have enough electricity
C.there are less human activities D.the wind is strong and reliable

We can infer from the passage that _______.

A.wind farms will not take up too much farming land
B.wind farms need no fuel because wind is free
C.the blades can be angled to turn to face the wind wherever it comes from
D.the higher and larger the towers are, the stronger the wind is

What can be a suitable title for the passage?

A.Where to build a wind farm. B.ABC of the using of wind energy.
C.How to make best use of wind. D.Wind energy is the best energy.

The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means______________________.

A.The blades can increase wind speeds
B.The blades can decrease the wind speeds
C.The speed of blades can be changed.
D.The blades can be adjusted to face different wind speeds

Audrey Hepburn (奥黛丽·赫本) was born on May 4, 1929 in Brussels, Belgium. She really was blue-blood from the beginning with her father, a wealthy English banker, and her mother, a Dutch noblewoman. After her parents divorced, Audrey went to London with her mother where she went to a private girl school. Later, when her mother moved back to the Holland, she attended private schools as well. While taking a vacation with her mother in Arnhem, Holland, Hitler’s army took over the town. It was here that she fell on hard times during the Nazi occupation. Audrey suffered from depression and poor nutrition.
After the liberation, Audrey went to a ballet school in London on a scholarship and later began a modeling career. As a model, she was graceful and, it seemed, she had found her job suitable for her in life - until the film producers came calling. After being spotted modeling by a producer, she was signed to a bit part in the European film Nederlands in 7 lessen in 1948. Later, she had a speaking role in the 1951 film, Young Wives’ Tale (1951) as Eve Lester. The part still wasn’t much, so she headed to America to try her luck there. Audrey gained immediate prominence in the US with her role in Roman Holiday in 1953. This film turned out to be a splendid success as she won an Oscar as Best Actress. This gained her enormous popularity and more plum roles. One of the reasons for her popularity was the fact that she was self-like, unlike the sex-goddesses of the time. Roman Holiday was followed by another similarly wonderful performance in the 1957 classic Funny Face.In 1988, Audrey became a special ambassador to the United Nations fund helping children in Latin America and Africa, a position she retained until 1993.Her elegance and style will always be remembered in film history as evidenced by her being named in Empire magazine’s "The Top 100 Movie Stars of All Time."
The underlined words “fell on hard times” in the second paragraph refer to______

A.the producers always let her act a lit role in a film.
B.parents’ being divorced brought her serious pain
C.depression and no nutrition brought her serious pain
D.no good jobs were suitable to her

Audrey went to America to look for a new chance because_______

A.in the European films there were only little roles for her to act
B.in the Americana there were many important film roles waiting for her to act
C.in the American there were many different jobs suitable to her
D.in the European films there were all roles she didn’t like

Which one of the following films made Audrey win an Oscar Best Actress Award?_______

A.Nederlands in 7 lessen B.Young Wives’ Tale as Eve Lester
C.Roman Holiday D.the 1957 classic Funny Face

This passage mainly tells us about______

A.Audrey’s struggle in the film fields and public admiration
B.Audrey’s family and her career
C.Audrey’s childhood and her films won great awards
D.Audrey’s hard times and her achievement

What can we learn from the passage?

B.In 1957, Audrey Hepburn won another success in Funny Face.
C.Audrey Hepburn received many parts shortly after being spotted modeling by the producer.
D.In 1993 Audrey became a special ambassador to the United Nations fund helping children in Latin America and Africa.
