Read the passage and choose the best answer for each sentence below.

In the future, maybe all cars that run on petrol will be replaced by solar cars, which have been
around for a while, but with recent developments in solar car design and the measurement of

photovoltaic cells becoming smaller, the dream of a truly efficient solar car is more reality than fantasy.
A solar car is a vehicle powered by photovoltaic cells, also called solar cells, which convert sunlight
(light energy) into electrical energy. As a source of energy on earth, there is nothing like the sun: in a
mere one thousandth of one second (0.001) , the sun emits enough energy to fulfill our planet’s energy
needs for the next 5,000 years. It is a staggering fact, and an exciting one. Since the energy from the
sun is responsible for renewable resources such as wind, tides, and heat, solar energy seems to offer the
brightest future for not only cars, but for the entire energy crisis. Despite the appearance that solar
energy may be the least feasible among the current crop of alternative fuel propositions, new solar
powered devices and more specifically solar powered cars are beginning to be developed. How do
Solar Cars work?

The photo-voltaic cells absorb photons from sunlight. This action generates heat, which the cells
then convert into electrical energy and stores in an on-board battery. This process of conversion is
called the photovoltaic effect. Not surprisingly, such a vehicle has zero emissions, and is very
environmentally friendly. Unfortunately, at the moment photovoltaic cells are extremely inefficient, yet
as time progresses the efficiency of these cells will grow. This will make solar energy and solar cars the
fuel and car of the future-a closer reality.

1. According to the text, ________.

A. up to now, we have designed some solar cars
B. solar cars have been very popular for many years
C. we have not produced any solar cars yet

D. solar cars are not as much appreciated as other kinds of car
2. A solar car is supplied power from ________.

</div>
(6)<div class='page_container' data-page=6>

3. Which can not help us to solve the problem of energy crisis?

A. wind B. tide C. the sun D. heat from the moon

4. According to the text, ________.

A. no powered solar devices have been developed so far

B. besides solar car, we have also developed solar powered device
C. solar energy plans are more feasible than wind energy plans
D. tide can supply more energy than the sun

5. The photovoltaic effect is ________.
A. the process of operating a solar car

B. the process of absorbing photons from the sun

C. the developing of solar cars and solar powered devices
D. the converting of heat from the sun into electricity
