U校园新视野大学英语4读写教程答案Unit 7 Energy and food crisesSection A7-2 Text A: The coming energy crisisPre-reading activitiesPre-reading activities-1参考：A. Less than 6 pointsYou may have heard about energy conservation, but you are not giving it the priority it deserves. You must do better.B. Between 6-10 pointsYou are already doing a few basic things, but there is so much more that you could do to show a better awareness for energy conservation.C. Between 11-16 points You display a good awareness of energy saving, but there's still room for improvement.D. Between 17- 20 points You can rightly call yourself an "Energy Saving Champion" - well done and keep up the good work!Pre-reading activities-21) Yes, it's definitely important to conserve energy. There are several reasons. First, it reduces our consumption of fossil fuels which have a fixed quantity of availability and are rapidly diminishing. Second, it saves us money because we don't have to build more power plants. Third, it reduces carbon emission, which will contribute greatly to the improvement of our air quality and natural environment.2) There are many other things we can do to save energy, such as: Not to overheat or overcool our rooms. Reduce the amount of waste we produce by buying minimally packaged goods. Choose reusable products over disposable ones, and recycle. Plan carefully and cluster our errands and shopping to minimize the miles we drive. Use less hot water by installing low-flow shower heads. Install a solarwater heater for our home. Drive a pure electric car (with a back-up generator for out-of-range driving). Walk or ride a bicycle whenever we can. Reading comprehensionReading comprehension-11) The world has depended mainly on non-renewable fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas for its industrial development in the past.2) Fossil fuels have two major problems: Their supply is limited, and they cause health and environmental problems.3) 1) Nuclear power is not really cheap when all costs are considered;2) Disastrous nuclear accidents could happen;3) Nuclear waste can be used improperly to cause damage.4) It means that the time when there is sufficient supply of cheap energy from fossil fuels will soon be over. Here "honeymoon" is used metaphorically.5) The point the author wants to illustrate is: Although renewable energy sources are promising, there are still various problems with these "new energy" technologies. The greatest problem is to find ways to use these technologies more efficiently and at lower costs.6) Biomass energy is a renewable energy option, but the production of it can cause air pollution and ozone layer depletion. The process of producing it is also complicated and costly.7) According to the author, the best solution to the world's energy problem must come from various energy technologies that are non-damaging to the environment, rather than from any single technology.8) The purpose of the text is to convince us that our world will soon be faced with a serious energy crisis,and to urge us to work quickly and cooperatively to find the best solutions.Reading comprehension-21) Yes. Because:Non-renewable fossil fuels are being used up. Nuclear energy is not safe.Renewable energy alternatives are still too expensive, and can't be used on a large scale. Population is increasing fast.Developing countries demand more energy than before because of their economic development.No. Because:There is still abundant oil and natural gas in the ground. There are more known reserves now than there have ever been.Conservation will play a role.Energy efficient products and buildings are becoming more and more common.New energy technologies are being developed and perfected.2) A lot of problems may occur if there is an energy crisis, such as:disruption of energy supplies;rapidly increasing energy prices;declining economic growth;increasing inflation;rising unemployment.3) The key factors that cause the changes of oil prices usually include:changes in oil supply and demand;oil speculation activities;world conflicts;natural disasters;monopoly of the oil-producing nations.4) Yes, nuclear energy should be banned because: Radioactive waste is harmful to people's health. Disastrous nuclear accidents may happen.There is the danger of nuclear proliferation. Exploitation of non-renewable uranium will continue, which will result in the exhaustion of another natural resource.No, nuclear energy shouldn't be banned because: Nuclear energy causes no release of greenhouse gases. Nuclear energy has low operating costs.Nuclear energy can be an extremely reliable source of power if managed well.5) Yes, I agree that China is having a serious energy problem. With China's rapid economic growth and continuously expanding urban population, the demandfor energy is increasing tremendously. The present energy supply can hardly meet the demand from both industry and households, especially in summer months. More electricity has yet to be produced.No, I don't agree that China is facing a serious energy problem. China is a large country with rich natural resources. Though traditional fossil fuels are reported to be running out, there is no hard evidence showing they really are because new coal mines and oil fields could be discovered. Besides, China is serious about the development of renewable energy, and is currently leading the world in renewable energy investment. So, even if fossil fuels become less, China can depend more on solar and wind power for its energy needs in the future.7-3 Text A: Language focusWords in use1. fringe2. unify3. extinct4. indefinite5. slash6. intricate7. inaugurate8. ventilate9. collaboration10. diffusedWord building: Practice Word building: Practice-11) competence2) adolescent3) delegation4) condemnation5) restoration6) preservation7) specification8) reconciliation9) resignation10) speculation11) revelation12) situateWord building: Practice-21. delegation2. restoration3. situate4. specifications5. competence6. adolescent7. condemnation8. reconciliation9. preservation10. resignation11. speculation12. revelation,revelations Banked cloze1) particulates2) viable3) disagree4) cite5) rotary6) vary7) little8) minimize9) locating10) designedExpressions in use1. fill up2. is projected to3. have factored in4. pose a risk to5. clear up6. is derived from7. hinge on8. is upon7-4 Structure analysis & writingStructured writing: Practice参考：As the world's oil supply runs out, it becomes more urgent to develop sustainable energy sources. As one of the available new energy alternatives, nuclear power is good because it is cheap and clean.However, in my mind, it is not a best energy option due to the environment, safety, and health concerns it poses.First, nuclear power poses serious environmental concerns. Though nuclear power plants emit no carbon dioxide, radioactive wastes from them, such as spent fuel rods, can remain active for hundreds or even thousands of years. Safe disposal of these wastes is still not possible. Besides, much of the equipment in the nuclear power plants becomes contaminated with radiation, which can cause serious problems to the local environment. Nuclear power plants also use large quantities of water for steam production and cooling, thus affecting water quality and aquatic life.Second, nuclear power causes great safety concerns. Despite the claim that nuclear power industry has a "superb record" on safety, a few major nuclear disasters have left many people believing that nuclear power plants are not safe enough. Both technical failure and human error can occur, leadingto nuclear accidents. Even if there is no nuclear accident, some by-products of nuclear reactors could be improperly used to make nuclear weapons. Moreover, nuclear power plants could become prime targets for terrorist attacks, and a satisfactory plan to protect nuclear power plants from terrorism is not in place. Third, nuclear power raises a number of health concerns. The small amounts of radioactive material released during routine operations may have detectable medical effects on nearby populations. In the event of a nuclear disaster, health concerns become more obvious. Exposure to radioactive fallout would lead to an increased risk of genetic disorders, cancer and other diseases.As an energy alternative that has low costs and creates no greenhouse gas emissions, nuclear power can be developed and used, but only on a limited scale. It is certainly not a best solution to our energy problem due to the various concerns it causes. To meet our increasing demand for energy, scientists andresearchers have to work harder to find more viable solutions.7-5 TranslationTranslationTranslation-1参考：国际原子能机构是世界核领域的合作中心，它于1957年作为世界性的原子能为和平服务的组织而建立，成为联合国大家庭的一员。

A worldwide food crisis会有全球粮食危机吗？Historically, only local governments worried about a widespread food crisis, but today, a sharp spike in food prices and the resulting food crisis can quickly bee a worldwide phenomenon、Recent droughts along the equator, and in Russia and Ukraine - two countries which account for one-fourth of world wheat exports - caused wheat prices to surge、 Many worry the tight supply will cause inflationary prices、 They fear the skyrocketing grain costs in 2007, which harshly struck the world's poor and led to food riots, will recur、在历史上，只有地方政府才会担心大范围得粮食危机，而如今，粮食价格得急剧上涨及由此导致得粮食危机会很快成为一种全球现象。

最近发生在赤道沿线、俄罗斯及乌克兰得干旱使小麦价格不断飆升——俄罗斯与乌克兰两国小麦出口总量占世界出口总量得四分之一。

许多人担心小麦供应短缺会引发其价格膨胀，她们害怕 2007 年使世界穷人遭受重创并引发食品骚乱得飞涨得粮食价格会再次出现。

Is their fear grounded? Consultancy firms measuring the status of modities like wheat don't think so、 Stocks of wheat are at sufficiently high levels, and harvest turnout from other big producers like the US is expected to stay strong、 So unlike in 2007, the supply situation isn't desperate, meaning wheat prices should eventually calm down and level off、However, this rosy picture provides only temporary security、The bigger picture discloses a reality not so optimistic、 Though current prices aren't as sky-high as in the panicked market of 2007, they're still at higher levels than before and are likely to stay that way、 The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development sees the average prices of products classified as essential such as grains, vegetable oils, and dairy products rising for the next decade、但就是，这一美好得画面只能带来短暂得安心。
