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] The phrase "be brought forward" (Line 2, Para. 1) most probably means______.
选项
A、be expected
B、be completed
C、be advanced
D、be introduced
答案
C
解析
本题是一道考查词汇短语的含义类问题。我们可以根据上下文来确定词义。本题中的bring forward这一短语动词以被动语态的形式做本句的谓语,其主语是以breakthrough为中心词的名词词组,bring forward又被状语by up to two decades修饰。因此,在这样一个上下文里,即“在为欧洲共同体提供太阳能方面的突破”和“多至20年”,能与bring forward替换而意义又相近的词只有C项的be advanced。因此,本题的正确答案应是C“提前,提前发生”。另外,如果我们的词汇量足够大的话,可以直接选出本题的正确答案。
