All over the world in the twenty-first century, people can get new energy in many ways.

Energy from the wind. People use the power of the wind．It is a clean source(来源) of energy, and there is lots of it. However, if the wind does not blow, there is no wind energy.

Energy from the water. When water moves from a high place to a lower place, it has the power to make electricity. Waterpower produces enough energy for 40, 000 people in a town. Waterpower gives energy without pollution. However, people have to build dams(大坝) to use this energy, and building dams is very expensive.

Energy from the sun. Solar panels(太阳能电池板) on the roofs of houses and buildings can turn energy from the sun into electricity. These panels can create enough energy to heat the whole house during winter. Solar power is clean and plentiful(丰富的), but when the weather is bad, it can't produce power．

举一反三

    When your school doesn't have a bus, and you live too far away to walk? How do you go to school? “Let's carpool! ”most US middle school students will get that cool idea. Carpooling is a group of people sharing the responsibility(责任) of driving to school in the morning. There are usually four or five kids in a carpool and their parents take turns driving the kids in their cars. It might be the kids' first experience with real teamwork. Teamwork is really important in the carpool because nobody wants to make everyone else late. It's a great lesson in resposibility.
    Carpooling is coming into fashion everywhere now. You can find lots of informations of carpooling on the internet. Carpooling is cool! Why?
    It's good for the environment. In today's culture of everyone needing to try their best to protect our environment, carpooling is one of the best ways. By taking 3 cars off the road, the pollution can be cut a little. Take that over a town, a city, a state, a country and think about how much less pollution is going to be in the air over the course of even one year.
    Gas(汽油) now is much more expensive than it used to and if you need to watch the cents(美分), then it's possible that carpooling could be the answer to your prayers. Even if you have to use your car once a week instead of two, that's one round trip of gas you're saving. So carpooling helps you save money.
    Carpooling is a great way of getting to know people better. If you're carpooling grade school kids, then you'll find that slowly you'll get to know your child's peers(同龄人) and friends better. It's a great opportunity to meet people while saving the environment and your money.

根据短文理解，选择正确答案。

It is 40 meters long and 6 meters wide. This must be the biggest bus you have ever seen. It can carry 1,200 to 1,400 people.

It is China's new Super Bus. It is going for a test run in Beijing at the end of this year. Some other cities are also interested in running the Super Bus. They hope it can solve traffic problems.

The Super Bus runs along fixed tracks (固定轨道). The bus sits on top of two 2.2-meter-tall legs. The legs have wheels at one end. Small cars can drive under the bus, so the Super Bus does not take up road space.

The bus runs on electricity and solar power. It can travel up to 60 km every hour. Its creator, Song Youzhou, says it can reduce a lot of traffic jams (堵塞).

The Super Bus can do the work of 40 buses. In that way, it can save 860 tons of fuel (燃料) every year, according to Song.

"To build a Super Bus and its track costs less than building subways. Subways are nearly ten times more expensive to build." Song said.

Some people worry that the Super Bus may not be safe. However, Song says there's no need for concern. The Super Bus has laser scanners (激光扫描仪) between its legs. The scanners make sure the cars keep a safe distance.
