Nuclear Danger
Our demand for electricity is climbing so fast that over the next decade our generating capacity must increase by a third. Fossil fuels supply nearly three-quarters of this energy. But the smoke expelling coal, gas, and oil-fired plants are also responsible for half of our air pollution. That might be considered as a small price to pay for progress. But there's an alternative, .one that produces no smoke and can actually create more fuel than it consumes. In many regions it's even cheaper than coal-fired electricity: nuclear power. It may directly bring danger of radioactivity to the mind, but if other types of power didn't present equal and even worse problems, it would make no sense to consider nuclear power at all. But they do. 1. Although 3/4 of the electricity is generated from fossil fuels A) We should consider the potential dangers of nuclear power B) everything has got an expense; and nuclear power's is its radioactivity C) It may contribute to global warming, the greenhouse effect D) half of the air pollution is caused by the plants using them E) coal also contains a surprising amount of radioactive material 2.

SUNSET
When the air is clear, the sunset will appear yellow, because the light from the sun has passed a long distance through air and the blue light has been scattered away. If the air is polluted with small particles, natural or otherwise, the sunset will be more red. Sunsets over the sea may also be orange, due to salt particles in the air. The sky around the sun is seen reddened, as well as the light coming directly from the sun. This is because all light is scattered relatively well through small angles, but blue light is then more likely to be scattered twice over the greater distances, leaving the yellow, red and orange colors. 23. As it is pointed out in the passage, the color of the sunset a) May be lighter than expected due to salt particles in the air b) is red if the sky is clear c) owes its blueness to the distance between the sun and the earth d) is a combination of all the colors e) depends on the weather conditions and the location where it takes place. 24. One can infer from the passage that the sunset looks yellow because ----. a) scattering does not play an appreciable role in determining the color ofthe transmitted light B) the blue light is scattered on the long way through the air at that time c) the light coming directly from the sun is blue d) the air is polluted to such a degree that the Earth's climate is actually changing e) sunsets generally take place on the sea
