A breakthrough (突破) in the provision of energy from the Sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.
The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy programme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year 2000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.
Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy needs.
At present the EEC spends about $ 2. 6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC’s official joint research centres, and another $ 3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies. [br] According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists to provide
选项
A、more than 3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000
B、only 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000
C、less than 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000
D、3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000
答案
C
解析
本题是一道具体细节题,利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以很快在第二段第一句里找到与本题相关的内容。这句话指出,主管欧洲经济共同体太阳能研究项目的德国科学家Joachim Gretz告诉记者说,按照目前的科研预算,即使是到了2000年以后,太阳能也不大可能达到欧洲经济共同体能源需求的3%。但是,只要适度增加投资,就有可能在这方面取得突破。因此,本题的正确答案应该是C,按照Gretz先生的观点,目前投入在太阳能研究方面的科研预算能使科学家们在2000年之前提供出不足欧洲经济共同体能源需求3%的能源。
