http://xination.pixnet.net/blog/post/24941426 來體會一下新版的感覺吧～ --- Reading Comprehension 單選複選選句子 Policymakers must confront the dilemma that fossil fuels continue to be an indispensable source of energy even though burning them produces atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide that increase the likelihood of potentially disastrous global climate change. 決策者必須對抗這個困境--石油持續是個不可缺手的能源，雖然燃燒他們會產生大氣中二氧化碳的累積，而會增加潛在全球性氣候變遷的可能性。 Currently, technology that would capture carbon dioxide emitted by power plants and sequester it harmlessly underground or undersea instead of releasing it into the atmosphere might double the cost of generating electricity. 目前，能捕捉由發電廠排放的二氧化碳並它無害地隔離在地底或海底而不是將它排放在大氣中的技術，可能會使發電的成本變為雙倍。 But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent. 但是因為隔離並不會影響電力傳輸與分佈的成本，實際上的價格上升是會較低的，不會超過50％。 Research into better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide will undoubtedly lead to lowered costs. 無疑問地，更好的捕捉二氧化態的科技研究將會降低成本。 ps. sequester v.使隔離單選題，跟之前的題型一樣 Q1. The passage implies which of the following about the current cost of generating electricity? 文章意謂者現在的發電成本會是下列哪個選項？ A. It is higher than it would be if better technologies for capturing carbon dioxide were available. 如果能有更好的補二氧化碳技術，目前的發電技術成本將會比它應當的高。 B.It is somewhat less than the cost of electricity transmission and distribution. 目前的發電成本少於電力傳輸與分佈的成本 c. It constitutes at most half of the delivered price of electricity. 目前的發電成本最多是傳輸電力價格的一半 D. It is dwelt on by policymakers to the exclusion of other costs associated with electricity delivery. 目前的發電成本將會被決策者降低為了排除其他相關於電力傳輸的成本 E. It is not fully recovered by the prices charged directly to electricity consumers. 目前的發電成本並沒有被消費者消費者付出的價格所回應 Ans. C 有點機車...我仔細計算，要達成C還需要其他的資訊，也就是說c不是錯，只是unknow 比 equation多.... 最簡單的方法，是ABDE都是錯的，因此只有C有可能對複選題，三個選項選出正確的，一定要全部答對才有分。 Q 2. The passage suggests that extensive use of sequestration would, over time, have which of the following consequences? 文章中指說如果大量用隔離的方法的話會有下列哪幾個後果 a. The burning of fossil fuels would eventually cease to produce atmospheric accumulations of carbon dioxide. 燃燒石油的方式終將停止而不在產生大氣中累積的二氧化碳 b. The proportion of the delivered price of electricity due to generation would rise and then decline. 部份電力的價格將由於發電而上升，而之後會下降 c. Power plants would consume progressively lower quantities of fossil fuels. 發電廠將大量使用低品質的石油 Answer: B 因為A, C在文章中並沒有提到選句子，點遠文章中的句子。 Select the sentence that explains why an outcome of sequestration that might have been expected would not occur. 選出句子說明隔離其中之一已經被預期的結果並不會發生的句子 Answer: "But because sequestration does not affect the cost of electricity transmission and distribution, delivered prices will rise less, by no more than 50 percent." 但是因為隔離並不會影響電力傳輸與分佈的成本，實際上的價格上升是會較低的，不會超過50％。人們預期隔離會使價格上升，但是文章說價格其實不會上升這們多，是由"But because sequestration .... 50 percent."這句所說明的 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.142.162.48
