This means that new technologies must be developed to generate the required energy without causing pollution , or at least within limits that can be tolerated without serious damage to the environment . Scientists and engineers are researching and developing new technologies that can help meet this goal . For example , solar energy is an attractive 1 alternative to traditional fossil fuels because it isrenewable and non - polluting . Solar power technology has made great strides in recent years , with scientists and engineers finding ways to improve solar panel efficiency and reduce production costs . Another promising technology is nuclear fusion , the process that powers the sun . Unlike nuclear fission , which releases energy by splitting atomic nuclei apart , fusion involves forcing atomic nuclei together . Nuclear fusion has the potential to provideclean , abundant energy , but scientists and engineers have been working on developing controlled fusion forseveral decades and still face many challenges . In addition to developing new energy technologies , there is also a need for increased awareness and education about energy conservation . Individuals and communities can make a difference by using energy more efficiently and reducing waste . For example , by improving the insulation of a home or office building , less energy is needed to heat or cool the space . Overall , the future of energy relies on a combinationof new technologies , improved efficiency , and increased awareness about the importance of energy conservation . 答案 解析 1 . The passage is mainly concerned with _ . A . the development of new energy technologies B . the effectiveness of solar energy as an alternative to f

About eight millionsquare meters of plastic grass is sold each year but opposition has now spread tothe highest gardening circles . The Chelsea Flower Show has banned fake grass fromthis year ' s event , declaring it to be not part of its ethos . The Royal Horticultural ' Society ( RHS ) , which runs the annual show in west London , says it has introducedthe ban because of the damage plastic grass does to the environment and biodiversity . Ed Horne , of the RHS , said : " We launched our sustainability strategy last yearand fake grass is just not in line with our ethos and views on plastic . We recommendusing real grass because of its environmental benefits , which include supportingwildlife , alleviating flooding and cooling the environment . " The RHS ' s decision comes as campaigners try to raise awareness of the problemsfake grass causes . A Twitter account , which claims to " cut through the green wash " of artificial grass , already has more than 20 , 000 followers . It is trying to encouragepeople to sign two petitions , one calling for a ban on the sale of plastic grassand another calling for an " ecological damage tax " on such lawns . They have gathered 7 , 276 and 11 , 282 signatures . However , supporters of fake grass point out that there is also an environmentalimpact with natural lawns , which need mowing and therefore usually consumeelectricity or petrol . The industry also points out that real grass requiresconsiderable amounts of water , weed killer or other treatments and the people wholay fake grass tend to use their garden more .

In response to another petition last year about banning fake lawns , whichgathered 30 , 000 signatures , the government responded that it has " no plans to banthe use of artificial grass .

Mr . Schmidt described it as a “ voluntary ecosystem ” in which individuals and organizations can complete online transactions with 14 , trusting the identities of the infrastructure that the transaction runs 15 .

It seems clear that such an initiative push toward what would 17 be a license ” mentality .

This is now a question for GloriaMackenzie , an 84 - year - old widow who recently emerged from her small , tin - roofed house in Florida to collect the biggest undivided lottery jackpot inhistory . If she hopes her new - found for tune will yield lasting feelings offulfillment , she could do worse than read Happy Money by Elizabeth Dumn andMichael Norton . These two academics use an array of behavioral research to show thatthe most rewarding ways to spend money can be counterintuitive . Fantasiesof great wealth often involve visions of fancy cars and extravagant homes . Yet satisfaction with these material purchases wears off fairly quickly whatwas once exciting and new becomes old - hat ; regret creeps in . It is far betterto spend money on experiences , say Ms Dumn and Mr Norton , like interestingtrips , unique meals or even going to the cinema . These purchases oftenbecome more valuable with time - as stories or memories - particularly if theyinvolve feeling more connected to others . This slim volume is packed with tips to help wage slaves as well aslottery winners get the most " happiness bang for your buck . " It seems mostpeople would be better off if they could shorten their commutes to work , spend more time with friends and family and less of it watching television ( something the average American spends a whopping two months a yeardoing , and is hardly jollier for it ) . Buying gifts or giving to charity is oftenmore pleasurable than purchasing things for oneself , and luxuries are mostenjoyable when they are consumed sparingly . This is apparently the reasonMacDonald ' s restricts the availability of its popular McRib - a marketing trickthat has turned the pork sandwich into an object of obsession . Readers of “ HappyMoney ” are clearly a privileged lot , anxious aboutfulfillment , not hunger . Money may not quite buy happiness , but people inwealthier countries are generally happier than those in poor ones . Yet the linkbetween feeling good and spending money on others can be seen among richand poor people around

They ' re more productive , more creative , and willing to take greater risks . And new research suggests that happiness might influence 1 firms work , too . Companies located in place with happier people invest more , according to a recent research paper . 2 , firms in happy places spend more on R&D ( research and development ) .
