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] Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on______.
选项
A、sufficient funding
B、further experiments
C、advanced technology
D、well-equipped laboratories
答案
A
解析
由文章第1、2段可知,只要稍微增加科研经费,在利用太阳能方面可能再过10年便可获得突破,故A正确。B、D两项并未在文中提及:第3段提到,如果采用先进的技术,可能在未来能满足欧共体更大的能源需求,但这并非获得突破的条件。故排除C。
