Read the passage and choose the best answer:
When I was in Scotland last year, I visited a special hydroelectric power station. It is inside a mountain. It rains a
lot in the mountains of Scotland and there are huge lakes high up. The water falls down through large pipes to a generator
in the power station. The energy of the moving water turns the generator and this produces electricity. A big transformer
then increases the number of volts over 400.000.The electricity goes through cables to different parts of Scotland, England
and Wales.
The inside of the power station was very clean because it doesn’t burn coal or gas. It was also very quiet. I was
very surprised. It was just like being in a hospital, really.
I think hydroelectric power stations are much safer than nuclear power stations. They are also better for the earth
than coal or gas power stations. Some countries like Sweden and Netherlands have said they aren’t going to build any more
nuclear power stations. They are going to try to make clean electricity using water or wind. I think we should do the same
and spend more money in building hydroelectric power stations
