As far as geographical【C6】______is concerned, HEP projects are to be found on lakes and rivers, while tidal【C7】______are constructed only at river mouths where tidal【C8】______is great. Unfortunately these are【C9】______in number. At present HEP stations are found mainly in Norway, Canada, Sweden and Brazil, whereas tidal plants are in【C10】______in France, Russia and China.
As regards capital【C11】______, both require very high investment. On the other hand, generating【C12】______are quite low in both cases. In fact, a large scale HEP plant is capable of producing power more【C13】______than conventional sources, such as coal, oil and nuclear plants. Tidal power also compares【C14】______with nuclear and oil generated electricity,【C15】______the amount of money on production.【C16】______HEP stations, tidal constructions have a long life【C17】______. It is estimated that they can operate for over 100 years. With respect to【C18】______of supply, tidal stations【C19】______from HEP ones in that they often can only supply power【C20】______. HEP stations, however, provide a constant supply of electricity.

选项
A、application
B、endurance
C、expectancy

答案
C
解析
application申请;endurance忍耐力;expectancy预期;extension延伸。这里指的是两种电站存在的时间很长,life expectancy意为“预期寿命,预计存在(持续)的期限”,为固定搭配,故选C。
