With an abundance of sun and wind, Spain is positioning itself as Europe’s future leader in green hydrogen production to clean up heavy industries. But some energy experts express caution because this process relies on massive availability of zero-carbon electricity.
Green hydrogen is created when renewable energy sources power an electric current that runs through water, separating its hydrogen and oxygen molecules(分子). The process doesn’t produce planet-warming carbon dioxide, but less than 0.1% of global hydrogen production is currently created in this way.
The separated hydrogen can be used in the production of steel, ammonia(氨) and chemical products. Hydrogen also can be used as a transportation fuel.
Spain’s large, windswept and thinly populated territory receives more than 2,500 hours of sunshine on average per year, providing ideal conditions for wind and solar energy, and therefore green hydrogen production.
“If you look at where hydrogen is going to be produced in Europe in the next million years, it’s in two countries, Spain and Portugal,” said Thierry Lepercq, the founder and president of HyDeal Ambition, an industry platform bringing together 30 companies. “Hydrogen is the new oil.”
Lepercq is working with companies like Spanish gas pipeline corporation Enagas and global steel giant ArcelorMittal to design an end-to-end model for hydrogen production, distribution and supply at a competitive price. Criticism has centered on green hydrogen’s higher cost compared with highly-polluting “gray hydrogen” drawn from natural gas. Lepercq argues that solar energy produced in Spain is priced low enough to compete.
Globally, Lepercq said, “Electricity is 20% of energy consumption. What about the 80% that is not electrified You need to replace those fossil fuels. Not in 50 years’ time. You need to replace them now.”
1. Why are some experts cautious about green hydrogen production in Spain （ ）
A. It needs large amounts of sun and wind.
B. It has an effect on heavy industries.
C. It causes conflicts among countries.
D. It uses lots of zero-carbon electricity.
2. What is the advantage of green hydrogen production in Spain （ ）
A. Ideal geographical conditions.
B. The support from the government.
C. Hydrogen production technology.
D. Well-developed public transports.
3. What can be inferred about green hydrogen in Spain according to Lepercq （ ）
A. It is highly priced.
B. It is easy to store.
C. It is competitive.
D. It is highly-polluting.
4. What is the passage mainly about （ ）
A. Spain manages to use zero-carbon electricity.
B. Spain struggles to lead the EU in heavy industries.
C. Spain takes the lead in preventing air pollution.
D. Spain replaces fossil fuels with green hydrogen.

A. Yet the story didn’t begin there.
B. However, Earth is an exception.
C. That’s why our planet is sometimes called “the earth” with a lowercase(小写的) “e”.
D. “Earth” has relatives in some other languages, too.
E. You may wonder which god or goddess Earth is named after.
F. It’s not clear how many meanings Earth has been related to.
G. Nobody knows when people started using words like “Earth” or “Erde” to refer to our planet.
The Greeks and Romans named most of the planets in the solar system after particular gods, and we have kept those names in English. Uranus and Neptune, unknown in classical times, were named by the modern astronomers who discovered them, but still after Greek and Roman gods. 1. 　 　　
The word “earth” has roots in the Old English word “eorpe”. Eorpe had multiple meanings like “soil”, “dirt”, “ground”, “dry land” and “country”. Old English, used until about 1150, is the earliest known phase of what became our modern English tongue. 2. 　 　 Old English evolved from a parent language that scholars call “Proto-Germanic”.
German that’s spoken today is part of the same linguistic(语言学的) family. “Earth” and “eorpe” are therefore related to the modern German word “Erde”. Not only is this the German language’s name for our home planet, but it can also be used to refer to dirt and soil.
3. 　 　 For example, there’s the Old Saxon “ertha”, the Old Frisian “erthe” and the Dutch word “aarde”. All these likely come from a Proto-Germanic term that was never recorded, as far as we know.
4. 　 　 And it’s unlikely a single person gave the planet Earth its English name—his or her identity has been lost in the sands of time.
Still, it’s clear that while Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all started out as the proper names of ancient gods, “Earth” did not. 5.

人与自然 环境保护 说明文 343 ★★★
Many of us wonder what lies in outer space. When we look up at the night sky, we see stars, the twinkle of a moving satellite and occasionally a distant planet. But one thing we don’t see is millions of pieces of junk filling up space. It’s the debris(残骸) that is causing problems for the existing technology that’s up there and which we rely on.
The amount of space junk is increasing. Over the last few decades, satellites and rockets have been launched into space, littering the universe as they go. It’s estimated there are now millions of pieces of metal and other materials in orbit—everything from old rockets to accidentally dropped astronaut tools, and even bits of paint.
The fear is that if we don’t start taking this litter out of the sky soon, it will become a significant threat to active satellites. Nobu Okada, Chief Executive of Astroscale—a company working on ways to clean up space junk—says, “Even a small piece of paint has enough power to blow up other satellites.”
Several ideas are being looked at to collect the debris floating around in space. In 2018, the RemoveDEBRIS spacecraft carried out various experiments, including testing a net that could follow a satellite and firing a harpoon(鱼叉) at a target in orbit to try to catch it.
The UK Space Agency is helping to fund new approaches to tracking satellites and debris in space. Jacob Geer from the UK Space Agency told the BBC, “Space surveillance(监控) and tracking is one of the key things we can do to keep safe those satellites we rely on now, and to make sure certain orbits don’t become inaccessible for future generations because there’s too much debris in them.”
It’s clear that a solution is needed so a deep clean can take place. But looking to the future, like any litter problem, we need to look at ways of creating less—and that shouldn’t be the stuff of science fiction.
1. What does the first paragraph say about space junk （ ）
A. It is something dangerous.
B. Its influence has been undervalued.
C. It was left by astronauts on purpose.
D. Its amount is becoming small recently.
2. Why did Nobu Okada mention a small piece of paint （ ）
A. To stress the significance of active satellites.
B. To introduce the plan of cleaning the debris.
C. To explain the difficulty in cleaning space junk.
D. To describe the damage space junk could bring.
3. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 4 （ ）
A. The effort to remove space junk.
B. The approach of space surveillance.
C. The importance of sending up satellites.
D. The experiment of tracking spacecraft.
4. Which of the following could be the best title for the text （ ）
A. Space junk: satellites’ threat
B. Scientists’ exploration of outer space
C. Space surveillance: a way to keep space clean
D. New proof of space junk’s harm to the universe

人与自然 环境保护 说明文 343 ★★★
Many of us wonder what lies in outer space. When we look up at the night sky, we see stars, the twinkle of a moving satellite and occasionally a distant planet. But one thing we don’t see is millions of pieces of junk filling up space. It’s the debris(残骸) that is causing problems for the existing technology that’s up there and which we rely on.
The amount of space junk is increasing. Over the last few decades, satellites and rockets have been launched into space, littering the universe as they go. It’s estimated there are now millions of pieces of metal and other materials in orbit—everything from old rockets to accidentally dropped astronaut tools, and even bits of paint.
The fear is that if we don’t start taking this litter out of the sky soon, it will become a significant threat to active satellites. Nobu Okada, Chief Executive of Astroscale—a company working on ways to clean up space junk—says, “Even a small piece of paint has enough power to blow up other satellites.”
Several ideas are being looked at to collect the debris floating around in space. In 2018, the RemoveDEBRIS spacecraft carried out various experiments, including testing a net that could follow a satellite and firing a harpoon(鱼叉) at a target in orbit to try to catch it.
The UK Space Agency is helping to fund new approaches to tracking satellites and debris in space. Jacob Geer from the UK Space Agency told the BBC, “Space surveillance(监控) and tracking is one of the key things we can do to keep safe those satellites we rely on now, and to make sure certain orbits don’t become inaccessible for future generations because there’s too much debris in them.”
It’s clear that a solution is needed so a deep clean can take place. But looking to the future, like any litter problem, we need to look at ways of creating less—and that shouldn’t be the stuff of science fiction.
1. What does the first paragraph say about space junk A
A. It is something dangerous.
B. Its influence has been undervalued.
C. It was left by astronauts on purpose.
D. Its amount is becoming small recently.
2. Why did Nobu Okada mention a small piece of paint D
A. To stress the significance of active satellites.
B. To introduce the plan of cleaning the debris.
C. To explain the difficulty in cleaning space junk.
D. To describe the damage space junk could bring.
3. What does the author want to tell us in Paragraph 4 A
A. The effort to remove space junk.
B. The approach of space surveillance.
C. The importance of sending up satellites.
D. The experiment of tracking spacecraft.
4. Which of the following could be the best title for the text A
A. Space junk: satellites’ threat
B. Scientists’ exploration of outer space
C. Space surveillance: a way to keep space clean
D. New proof of space junk’s harm to the universe

Anand Malligavad, known as the “Lake Man of India”, is very inspiring since he has transformed many places and environments in India by conserving them. It is a story of passion, determination, and the importance of personal actions in making a difference.
Anand’s adventure began at his birthplace of Sirsi, Karnataka, where he saw how pollution and carelessness had led to damage to some nearby ponds. Anand decided to save the dry lakes in his region with perseverance and a sense of duty to which he felt deeply attached.
Anand united those who were willing to participate in the volunteer work, and came up with means through which they could remove people’s trash and waste along the lake.
The news about Anand’s activities spread widely, which inspired several people including students, the locals and some high-ranking officials to join his team. Anand’s method was comprehensive in that he combined bottom-up activism with inductive(归纳的) reasoning. To fill up aquifers(含水层) that had run dry, he suggested methods of rainwater harvesting. In order to check any additional source of pollution at them, he started carrying out sewage(污物) treatment programs at these water bodies.
Multiple lakes in the Sirsi region were brought back to life by Anand through his firm dedication and cooperative work, hence changing them into lively ecological systems. These transformed lakes not only provided pure drinking water and irrigation water, but also served as recreation centers and tourist attractions, thereby contributing positively to the economy of the area.
Anand didn’t stop there. He went on to broaden his conservation activities, motivating Indian society to guard the environment in the same way. He has been honored nationally for his accomplishments and has become an influential person, speaking at conferences and interacting with decision-makers about how they can ensure they are acting in a sustainable way while still advocating environmental protection.
