It has been more than two thousand years we began to use an umbrella on rainy days.However,people often felt it not convenient to hold an umbrella while working.Then the rubber raincoat was invented by an Englishman named Macintosh in 1823.
In 1492,Columbus,a well-known Italian woyager,discovered the New World—the American. He brought a lot of things to Europe from South America Rubber eas one of them,but people didn’t know the use of rubber at that time. In1770,people found that the rubber could be used as erasers.

Surprisingly, the clothes inside the “rubber coat” weren’t wet at all. The rubber raincoat was created in this way by chance.
The rubber raincoats soon appeared on the market. However, they were sticky* in summer and hardened in winter. Year after year, people kept on improving the raincoats. Today raincoats are widely used in our daily life.

It is widely agreed that the over-use of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil has caused serious environmental problems. Scientists are trying to find new clean energies that do not pollute the air, the water or the ground. Solar power is one of them.
Solar power is a kind of electricity* which is produced by taking energy from the sun, using solar panels. The solar panels are usually fixed on the roofs of houses and buildings. It is the family solar power system. Some countries are even beginning to build solar power plants’ by setting thousands of solar panels in the places where there is enough sunshine. Solar power has many advantages. The power is easy to get and will never be used up. Whenever it is sunny, there is the power. The power is clean and renewable*. It helps to reduce waste and pollution, which is great for the environment. In the areas that are too fat away to send electricity to or not easy to build electric power plants, solar power is especially necessary. It enables the people there to use lights, TVs, computers, washing machines, fridges and many other things.
Therefore, more and more countries, such as China, the USA, Japan and India, encourage scientists to develop practical technology to put solar power to use. However, the power is not as widely used as expected.
One of the challenges is that a solar power system needs sunshine. Countries or areas with a lot of rain, like the UK, are not suitable* to develop such power system. Secondly, a solar power panels requires a very Large site* to fix enough solar panels to collect sunlight and change it into electricity. Maybe an area in the desert would be one of the perfect places for such a plant to build. What’s more, solar panels are expensive at present though the energy itself doesn’t cost anything.
Today scientists are working hard to develop more practical and cheaper solar power system. Maybe one day solar power will be one of the most important clean energies in our life.

37.Solar power is a kind of energy taken from ____
A. the air B. the sun C. the water D. the ground

38. The underlined word reduce probably means _____
A. to make something less B. to make something better
C. to make something more D. to make something clwaner

A. The ways to use solar power.
B. The advantages of solar power.
C. The places to build the solar power pants.
D. The difficulties of putting solar power to use widely.

40.What can we learn from the passage?
A. Solar energy itself is expensive.
B. Solar power will be used up very soon.
C. Solar power is a kind of clean and useful energy.
D. Solar power is much better than the other energies.

参考范文1：
Traveling is interesting
Traveling is interesting.
You will have lots of fun things to do and see during the trip. Just imagine that you are walking in the beautiful mountains, enjoying the fresh air and listening to the birds singing. It’s amazing, isn’t it? Sometimes, you may meet people from different places and make friends with them, which makes your trip a more pleasant one. Also, you may have many interesting things to share with your friends when you are back. All the pleasure of your trip will be kept in your memory.
It’s not surprising that so many students can’t wait to go traveling after the examination!
参考范文2：
Traveling is boring
Traveling is usually boring.
There are always too many people in places of interest in China and it is crowded everywhere, especially on holidays. Just imagine that you are waiting in line, hungry and thirsty. “Why do I come here? To see the crowd?”you may complain. If you are unlucky , you may meet a bad guide who pushes you to shop here and there. It’s terrible, isn’t it? Also, you may have to get up early to take the plane or wait in the airport for hours because of the delayed flight.
Therefore, I prefer to stay at home than go traveling after the examination.
