Choose the best option A, B or C to complete the passage below.
We can use renewable and non-renewable energy sources to make electricity.
Most of our electricity comes from power stations that use fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas. We call them non-
renewable sources because they will eventually run out. Unfortunately, burning fossil fuels produces lots of
greenhouse gases which cause global warming. We also use renewable energy sources like the sun, wind and water
to make electricity. We can use them again and again because they cannot run out. They do not produce greenhouse
gases so they are much less harmful to the environment.

Read the passage and answer the questions.
My uncle is working at a car company. His company is now developing a new flying car. The car will have
solar panels on its roof and wings, and it will charge its battery as it moves. During light traffic, you can use roads.
But in heavy traffic, you can use the flight mode to avoid traffic. It will be able to carry eight passengers. The car
will have an autopilot function, so a driver is not needed. All passengers can relax, read books or play games while
travelling.
I was worried about the safety because it is driverless, but my uncle said it will be much safer than a traditional car.
It will also be more comfortable and greener because it is solar-powered.

Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world’s energy resources are
limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also should use them economically and try to
find out alternative sources of power. According to Professor Marvin Burnham of the New England Institute of
Technology, we have to start saving coal, oil and gas before it is too late; and solar power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it’s very dangerous. What would happen if
there was a serious nuclear accident? Radioactivity causes cancer and may badly affect the future generations. The
most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economical as possible.
