阅读下面材料,从每题所给的三个选项(A、B和C)中,选出最佳选项。
As we know, the over-use of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil has caused serious
environmental problems. Scientists are trying to find new clean energies that does not pollute the air, the water or the ground. Solar power(太阳能) is one of them. Solar power is a kind of electricity which is produced by taking energy from the sun, using solar panels(板).
Solar power has many advantages. The power is easy to get and will never be used up. Whenever it is sunny, there is power. The power is clean and renewable(可再生的). It helps to reduce waste and pollution.
However, the power is not as widely used as expected(预期). One problem is that a solar power system needs sunshine. Some areas with a lot of rain, like the UK, are not suitable to develop solar power systems. Secondly, a solar power factory needs a large place to fix enough solar panels to collect sunshine. Maybe an area in the desert would be perfect place for such a factory to build. What’s more, solar panels are expensive though the energy itself doesn’t cost anything.
Today scientists are trying to develop solar power systems. Maybe one day, solar power will be one of the most important clean energies in our life.
