A breakthrough (突破) in the provision of energy from the Sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.
The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy programme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year 2000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.
Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy needs.
At present the EEC spends about $ 2. 6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC’s official joint research centres, and another $ 3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies.
Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on______.
选项
A、sufficient funding
B、further experiments
C、advanced technology
D、well equipped laboratories
答案
A
解析
本题问一些科学家认为利用太阳能方面的突破要依靠什么。这是一道具体细节题。利用浏览式阅读和查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章的第一段和第二段里找到与问题的正确答案相关的信息。这两段均指出,只要适度增加科研经费,便可能在利用太阳能方面提前20年获得突破。因此,本题的正确答案应是A“主要依靠科研资金”。
