I. Read the passage and do the task that follows.
Solar energy is a long lasting source of energy which can be used almost anywhere. To generate
solar energy, we only need solar cells and the sun! Solar cells can easily be installed on house roofs, so no
new space is needed and each user can quietly generate their own energy. Compared to other renewable


sources, they also possess many advantages: wind and water power relies on turbines which are noisy,
expensive and easy to break down. Solar cells are totally silent and non-polluting. As they have no
moving parts, they require little maintenance and have a long lifetime.
However, solar energy also has some disadvantages. We can only generate solar energy during
daytime because the system depends on sunlight. Besides, solar cells require large are to work effectively.
The main disadvantage of solar energy is that it
costs about twice as much as traditional sources such as coal, oil, and gas. This is because solar cells are
expensive. Scientists are hoping that the costs of solar cells will reduce as more and more people see the
advantages of this environmentally friendly source of energy.
