阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

    Sheridan is a town in Indiana, USA. There are lots of trees near the public schools in the town. Their leaves turn sunlight into energy.

    In Sheridan, the Sun not just provides energy for plants. It keeps schools running, too. The schools use solar panels(太阳能电池板) to turn sunlight into energy.

    The science behind solar energy is not new. But Sheridan Community Schools is the first school district (学区) in Indiana to be completely solar-powered. The district finished putting in solar panels for all three of its schools in 2016. Some of the panels can turn to follow the Sun across the sky.

    In 2008, fewer than 1,000 schools used solar power. By 2014, there were 3,727 schools with solar panels in the USA. These numbers come from a report by The Solar Foundation. Roxie Brown, a programme director there, said that the number of schools with solar panels has continued to go up since 2014.

    Solar energy has some advantages over other energy sources (来源). Sunlight is a renewable source, which means it won't run out. Solar panels don't harm the environment. Also, sunlight is free. So by using solar power, schools can save money on energy costs. Brown thinks more schools should run on solar energy. "The Sun is Earth's energy source," she says. "We're trying to make it the energy source for our houses, cars and schools, too."

    But using solar energy isn't always easy. Solar panels can be expensive to put in. The panels also take up space. But for many schools, going solar is worth it.

(1)、What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A、A plant. B、The Sun. C、A district. D、The solar panel.
(2)、Sheridan Community Schools put in solar panels _______.

A、in 2008 B、for all its schools C、with the help of The solar Foundation D、together with other 1,000 schools in the USA

A、has risen B、has fallen C、is too small D、is large enough
(4)、What does the underlined word "renewable" in Paragraph 5 mean in Chinese?

A、可开发的 B、可替代的 C、可再生的 D、可加工的
举一反三
阅读理解, 阅读下列短文,从各题所给的A、B、C项中选出最佳选项,

    Language students often think they have memory problems. They worry because they can't remember words. In fact, the problem usually isn't with their memory. The problem is with how they study.

    To remember words better, you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memories: short-term and long-term. When you see, hear, or read something, it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many, many books. And like a library, it's organized (有条理的). When you put away a book – or memory – you can't just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.

    How can you do this with vocabulary? The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better, you can invent a little story about the word, with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example, if the word is height, you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.
