Waste products from a popular alcoholic drink could be used in the future to make biofuel. Researchers say the new fuel, based on whisky, could reduce demand for oil. They say using less oil could cut pollution that studies have linked to climate change.
Scotland is the largest producer of whisky in the world. And a Scottish professor has found how to take the waste products from distilling whisky and turn them into a form of alcohol called biobutanol. Biobutanol can be used as a fuel. Whisky comes from grain, such as corn and wheat.
Martin Tangney is director of the Biofuel Research Centre at Napier University in Edinburgh. He says less than 10 percent of what comes out can be considered whisky. The rest is mainly one of two unwanted products: strong beer and wheat Tangney says the two byproducts can be produced to create a new material: biobutanol.
3. What is the news report mainly about?
4. What are the unwanted products in making whisky?
选项
A、Waste products of whisky could make biofuel.
B、Scotland is the largest producer of whisky in the world.
C、A new fuel called Biobutanol is found by a Scottish professor.
D、There are many waste products in making whisky.
答案
A
解析
主旨题。新闻的主旨常出现在首尾部分。新闻的开头提到,一种流行的酒精饮料中产生的废品在未来可以用作生物燃料(could be used in the future to make biofuel),而下一句则点明这个popular alcoholic drink就是指whisky“威士忌”。故A正确。B的内容有在新闻中提到,但“苏格兰是全球最大的威士忌产生”并不是本文的重点内容。C内容与新闻不符,Biobutanol并不是新燃料,也不是苏格兰教授发现的。D“生产威士忌会产生很多废产品”偏离了新闻的重点。
