Decise the underlined part A, B, C or D that is not correct in standard English.
1. Because his argument was so confused->confusing, few people understood it.
2. A famous musician is going to->will go to direct the concert next week.
3. Scientists must->x have to discover an alternative source of energy before oil runs out.
4. To enjoy an opera fully, the listener should be familiar with the story, particularly is the opera is singing->sung in a foreign language.

In the modern world, people depend on energy to power their everyday lives. A wide range of power-run devices and modern conveniences (1) are taken for granted, and although it may seem that we will not be in danger of living without those conveniences, the fact is that many supplies of energy are running out rapidly. Scientists are constantly (2) searching for new sources of energy to keep modern society running. Whether future populations will continue to enjoy the benefits of abundant energy will depend (3) on the success of this search. Coal, oil and natural gas are now being used widely. (4) However, not only are supplies of , these supplies are limited, and they are a major source of pollution. Therefore, the existing alternative energy sources must be improved or futher explored and developed. These include nuclear, water, solar, and wind power, as well as energy from new, (5) nonpolluting types of fuels types of fuels. Each of these, however, has advantages and disadvantages.
Almost all our energy comes from oil, coal, and natural gas. We call them fossil fuels. The earth’s fossil fuels are running out. What will happen when there is no coal, oil and gas on earth?
Scientists are trying to find and use other alternative sources of energy. We can use energy from the sun, the wind, and the water.
Solar energy is unlimited. The sun supplies all the energy used to grow plants, to evaporate water for rain, and to maintain the temperature of the planet. All are necessary for human life. If we are able to collect solar energy, we will be sure to have this abundant source of power.
1. From which do plants on the earth get energy?
A. Stars
B. The Mars
C. The moon
D, The sun
2. What are the other words or phrase for fossil fuels?
A. Natural
B. Oil
C. Coal
D. Oil, gas, natural gas
3. Natural sources of energy are energy from..............
A. Wind

The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of wastes.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the earth, is also being tested.
Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in theUnited States, but today it supplies only four percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.
