21、er from the fact that they are variable sources of power output. For example, there will be times when due to windless days or calm seasand both can occur for periods of several days even in the winter timethey are producing little or no power.Insofar as this shortfall has to be made up by electrici

22、ty from conventional power stations, these newer energy sources would not necessarily reduce the installed capacity of such conventional stations needed to meet the total demand on windless or calm days. What the newer sources will do is to save fuel that would otherwise be burned in conventional po

23、wer stations.Pumped storage reservoirs could in principle be used to counter this effect, but there 1 is not enough additional reservoir capacity available. We therefore face the same type of storage problem as in solar energy. Thus, unless some new method of energy storage can be developed or we mo

24、ve to the widespread use of a fuel like hydrogen, the wind and wave schemes will be at an economic disadvantage.36 The power produced by the waves, tide and wind _.（A）is not as consistent as it should be（B） is generally less in winter than in summer（C） is never likely to be very great（D）is consisten

Their body structure and instincts equip them for life in a colony of community, where th

29、ey have a complex social organization and the various duties are divided among the individuals according to physical fitness and age. An individual worker bee cannot reproduce itself. While it may continue to live if forcibly isolated from its mates, it fails to care for itself adequately, and soon

30、dies. Most insects have the ability to hibernate in winter, but the honeybee seems to have lost this. Since at low temperatures the bee will die, it must have the ability to make its own environment, so far as temperature is concerned. This makes a colony necessary to the bees in winter, so that the

31、y may collectively warm each other. Efficiency if not necessity, demands that the work of the colony be divided, and such a division of labor tends to enhance the need to maintain the colony. The physical structure of the honeybee is further suited for the defense of the entire colony rather than fo

32、r its own defense. The bees barbed sting is used only once and is made more effective by the fact that it is left behind in the victim. With the loss of the sting, however, the bee dies. This kind of defensive weapon is not of service to the individual, but to the community.41 According to the passa

36、priate title for the passage?（A）The Communal Life of Bees（B） The Structure of the Bees（C） The Organization of Insect Colonies（D）The Life of Social Insects46 Lincoln was a strong executive who saved the government, saved the United States. He was a President who understood people, and, when time came

37、 to make decisions, he was willing to take the responsibility and make those decisions, no matter how difficult they were. He knew how to treat people and how to make a decision stick, and thats why he is regarded as such a great Administration.Carl Sandburg and a lot of others have tried to make so

38、mething out of Lincoln that he wasnt. He was a decent man, a good politician, and a great President, and theyve tried to build up things that he never even thought about.

39、hat never even occurred to him. He was a good man who was in the place where he ought to have been at the time important events were taking place, but when they write about him as though he belongs in the pantheon(众神庙 ) of the gods, thats not the man he really was.
