      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 temperate 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 od 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 gas      B. oil                     C. coal                  D. oil, gas, natural gas

      3.   Natural sources of energy are energy from                      .
