Finding the resources to meet this demand in a【S2】______. sustainable way is the cornerstone (基石) of our nation’s energy security, and will be one of the major【S3】______of the 21st century. Alternative forms of energy — bio-fuels, wind and solar, to name a few — are【S4】______being funded and developed, and will play a growing【S5】______in the world’s energy supply.

答案
H
