I. Read the following passage and answer the questions. (1.5 pt)
 The sun, water, and the wind are other alternative sources of energy.
The wind turns windmills and moves sailboats. It is a clean source of energy, and there is lots of it. Unfortunately, if the wind does not blow, there is no wind energy. When water moves from a high place to a lower place, it makes energy. This energy is used to create electricity.
 Water power gives energy without pollution. However, people have to build dams to use this energy. And as dams cost a lot of money, so water energy is expensive.
 The sun releases large amounts of energy every day. This energy can be changed into electricity. Many countries use solar energy for their daily life. Solar panels on the roofs of houses can create enough energy to heat or cool an entire house. Solar energy is not only plentiful and infinite but also clean and safe.
 Although there are some disadvantages, the potential of alternative sources of energy is great. However, how to make full use of these sources of energy is a question for researchers all over the world.
