VI. Read the following passage, then answer the questions :People are trying many ways to solve the problem of finding "green" energy - energy that is clean and does not cause pollution. In some places plants are being grown which can be used as food and fuel. For example sunflowers are grown for the oil in their seeds. However, once the seeds have been taken out, the rest of the plant can be dried and burnt. An old solution in India is to dry animal waste and form it into bricks for burning. The Chinese improve on
this and keep the waste until it produces methane gas which they use for cooking and heating.
Solar power could be one of the best future sources of energy. All over the world it is already being used for such jobs as heating water and houses and powering machines to water plants. But there is a way to make even better use of the sun.
In space, because the sun never stops shining, it can supply solar energy for twenty four hours a day. Space scientists have suggested building a solar power station in space. It would produce huge amounts of power which could be sent down to the Earth. To build a station in space like this would be very expensive, but once the station was working, the energy from it would be almost free.
