Accrding t the Slar Energy Industry Assciatin, the number f slar panels installed (安装) has grwn rapidly in the past decade, and it has t
grw even faster t meet climate gals. But all f that grwth will take up a lt f space, and thugh mre and mre peple accept the cncept f slar
energy, few like large slar panels t be installed near them.
Slar develpers want t put up panels as quickly and cheaply as pssible, s they haven't given much thught t what they put under them. Often,
they'll end up filling the area with small stnes and using chemicals t cntrl weeds. The result is that many cmmunities, especially in farming regins,
see slar farms as destryers f the sil.
"Slar prjects need t be gd neighbrs, " says Jrdan Macknick, the head f the Innvative Site Preparatin and Impact Reductins n the
Envirnment (InSPIRE) prject. "They need t be prtectrs f the land and cntribute t the agricultural ecnmy." InSPIRE is investigating practical
appraches t "lw-impact" slar develpment, which fcuses n establishing and perating slar farms in a way that is kinder t the land. One f the
easiest lw-impact slar strategies is prviding habitat fr pllinatrs (传粉昆虫).
Habitat lss, pesticide use, and climate change have caused dramatic declines in pllinatr ppulatins ver the past cuple f decades, which has
damaged the U.S. agricultural ecnmy. Over 28 states have passed laws related t pllinatr habitat prtectin and pesticide use. Cnservatin

rganizatins put ut pllinatr-friendliness guidelines fr hme gardens, businesses, schls, cities—and nw there are guidelines fr slar farms.
Over the past few years, many slar farm develpers have transfrmed the space under their slar panels int a shelter fr varius kinds f
pllinatrs, resulting in sil imprvement and carbn reductin. "These pllinatr-friendly slar farms can have a valuable impact n everything that's
ging n in the landscape, " says Macknick.
（ 1 ）What d slar develpers ften ignre?
A. The decline in the demand fr slar energy.
C. The rising labr cst f building slar farms.
（ 2 ）What des InSPIRE aim t d?
B. The negative impact f installing slar panels.
D. The mst recent advances in slar technlgy.
A. Imprve the prductivity f lcal farms.
C. Make slar prjects envirnmentally friendly.
（ 3 ）What is the purpse f the laws mentined in Paragraph 4?
A. T cnserve pllinatrs.
B. Invent new methds fr cntrlling weeds.
D. Prmte the use f slar energy in rural areas.
B. T restrict slar develpment.
D. T ensure the supply f energy.
C. T diversify the ecnmy.
（ 4 ）Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?

behaviurs are called “active learning”.

【小题2】
, while the uter vice tells yu abut views frm what yu hear

imprtant infrmatin.
【小题3】
If yu find yur inner vice difficult t cntrl, yu can argue with it as mst active learners d. When yur inner vice tells yu a speaker/ writer is
wrng, think abut why the speaker / writer may be right. Be flexible in yur pinins and yu might end up agreeing with the speaker/ writer after all. If
nt, at least yu have “listened t” anther pint f view.
●Ask questins
Asking questins is the easiest way t prmte active learning. When yu get infrmatin frm smene, frm bks r the Internet, ask tw, three,
even five questins abut the tpic.

S, why did he suddenly frce me t d smething at which I was sure t fail? His reply: "Because I lve yur stries. If yu're willing t apply

anyne else's chice.
What did the hrse think, as he sped thrugh the night? Did he get tired? Have dubts? Did he want t quit? I sympathized immediately. I gt tired. I
had dubts. I wanted t quit. But, like Revere's hrse, I kept ging. I wrked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my lder sister t crrect my grammar. I
checked ut a half dzen bks n Paul Revere frm the library. I even read a few f them.
When I handed in the essay t my teacher, he read it, laughed ut lud, and said, "Great. Nw, write it again." I wrte it again, and again and again.
When I finally finished it, the thught f winning had given way t the enjyment f writing. If I didn't win, I wuldn't care.
