The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities
are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Converting waste
products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of waste.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars.
But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are under way to harness

power with giant windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the earth, is also being tested.
Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams
and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the
United state, but today it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential source of
energy. Scientist are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to
electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water
to produce energy.
46. Fifty years ago one third of the electricity in the United States was provided by ___ _____.
A. water B. wind C. oil D. waste products

destruction. About 20 million hectares are lost every year _ an area that is twice larger than the
size of Austria. The World Wildlife Fund is working to protect and save the forests that are in
danger; to plant new trees for fuel wood and to slow down the Greenhouse Effect. It encourages
governments to think about the forests and their importance when giving international aid.
