Nguồn năng lượng chính của chúng ta sử dụng là dầu - một loại năng lượng hóa thạch. Nguồn năng lượng hóa thạch trên thế giới có hạn. Vì vậy, chúng ta phải tiết kiệm nó và cùng lúc này phải tìm ra nguồn năng lượng mới. Năng lượng nhiệt từ lòng trái đất và năng lượng hạt nhân là những muốn năng lượng thay thế. Chúng có thể tạo ra điện năng. Ngoài ra còn có những nguồn năng lượng thay thế khác như mặt trời, sóng biển và nước. Những nguồn năng lượng này không chỉ là vô tận và sẵn có mà còn sạch và an toàn với môi trường. Con người nên phát triển và sử dụng nhiều hơn trong tương lai. 4. Phần dịch Reading Unit 11 Lớp 11 Hiện nay, hầu hết năng lượng của chúng ta sử dụng đến từ nhiên liệu hóa thạch than, dầu và khí tự nhiên. Tuy nhiên, nguồn dự trữ có hạn. Bởi vì nhu cầu điện đang tăng rất nhanh, nhiên liệu hóa thạch sẽ cạn kiệt trong một thời gian tương đối ngắn. Vì vậy, con người phải phát triển và sử dụng các nguồn năng lượng thay thế. Một nguồn năng lượng thay thế là nguồn năng lượng hạt nhân. Năng lượng hạt nhân có thể cung cấp đủ điện cho các nhu cầu của thế giới trong hàng trăm năm, nhưng nó có thể rất nguy hiểm. Một nguồn năng lượng thay thế khác là địa nhiệt đến từ sâu bên trong trái đất. Các nhà khoa học sử dụng nhiệt để tạo ra năng lượng. Tuy nhiên, năng lượng này chỉ có ở một vài nơi trên thế giới. Mặt trời, nước và gió là những nguồn năng lượng thay thế khác. Gió làm quay cối xay gió và di chuyển thuyền buồm. Đó là một nguồn năng lượng sạch và có rất nhiều. Thật không may, nếu gió không thổi thì cũng không có năng lượng gió. Khi nước di chuyển từ một nơi cao đến nơi thấp hơn, nó tạo ra năng lượng. Tuy nhiên con người phải xây đập nước để sử dụng nguồn năng lượng này. Xây đập tốn rất nhiều tiền, vì vậy năng lượng nước cũng đắt đỏ. Mặt trời giải phóng một lượng lớn năng lượng mỗi ngày. Năng lượng này có thể được chuyển hóa thành điện năng. Nhiều quốc gia sử dụng năng lượng mặt trời cho cuộc sống hằng ngày của họ. Tấm pin mặt trời trên mái nhà có thể tạo ra đủ năng lượng để sưởi ấm hoặc làm mát toàn bộ ngôi nhà. Năng lượng mặt trời không chỉ phong phú và vô hạn mà còn sạch sẽ và an toàn. Mặc dù có một số nhược điểm, tiềm năng của các nguồn năng lượng thay thế là rất lớn. Tuy nhiên, làm thế nào để có thể tận dụng triệt để các nguồn năng lượng là một câu hỏi dành cho các nhà nghiên cứu trên toàn thế giới. The United Kingdom is doing a lot to increase its use of renewable energy. It is moving away from fossil fuels and making more use of green energies, such as wind power, nuclear power and solar energy. New figures from the UK's electricity provider show that the UK had its greenest year ever in 2017 for electricity production. It even had its first coal-free day for over 150 years. The UK broke 13 clean energy records in 2017. In June, wind, nuclear and solar power produced more electricity than gas and coal combined. It was the first time this has ever happened. The UK's power system is now the fourth cleanest in Europe and the seventh cleanest in the United Kingdom has been trying to reduce the amount of coal it uses. Coal now supplies less than 7 per cent of the UK's electricity. A spokesman said it must now try to use less gas to make sure it meets its target for greenhouse gas emissions. The UK currently uses too much gas. The conservation charity World Wildlife Fund said it was pleased that the UK is moving towards greener energy. It said "We have never been cleaner or greener, and we are on [target] for an even better year in 2018." It added "Climate change is wreaking havoc on our nature and wildlife, but we are at last facing up to the challenge. We are turning our backs on polluting fossil fuels and embracing a new, clean future."

While You Read Unit 11 lớp 11 Read the passage and then do the tasks that follow Đọc kĩ đoạn văn và sau đó làm các nhiệm vụ tiếp theo At present, most of our energy comes from fossil fuels oil, coal, and natural gas. However, such reserves are limited. Because power demand is increasing very rapidly, fossil fuels will be exhausted within a relatively short time. Therefore, people must develop and use alternative sources of energy. One alternative source is nuclear energy. Nuclear energy can provide enough electricity for the world’s needs for hundreds of years, but it can be very dangerous. Another alternative source of energy is geothermal heat, which comes from deep inside the earth. Scientists use this heat to make energy. However, this energy is available only in a few places in the world. The sun, water, and the wind are other alternative sources of energy. The wind turns windmills and moves sailboats. It is a clean source of energy, and there is lots of it. Unfortunately, if the wind does not blow, there is no wind energy. When water moves from a high place to a lower place, it makes energy. This energy is used to create electricity. Water power gives energy without pollution. However, people have to build dams to use this energy. And as dams cost a lot of money, water energy is expensive. The sun releases large amounts of energy every day. This energy can be changed into electricity. Many countries use solar energy for their daily life. Solar panels on the roofs of houses can create enough energy to heat or cool an entire house. Solar energy is not only plentiful and infinite but also clean and safe. Although there are some disadvantages, the potential of alternative sources of energy is great. However, how to make full use of these sources of energy is a question for researchers all over the world. Tạm dịch Hiện nay, hầu hết năng lượng của chúng tôi đến từ nhiên liệu hóa thạch than, dầu và khí tự nhiên. Tuy nhiên, dự trữ còn hạn chế. Bởi vì nhu cầu điện đang tăng rất nhanh, nhiên liệu hóa thạch sẽ cạn kiệt trong một thời gian tương đối ngắn. Vì vậy, ngườì ta phải phát triển và sử dụng các nguồn năng lượng thay thế. Một nguồn năng lượng thay thế là nguồn năng lượng hạt nhân. Năng lượng hạt nhân có thể cung cấp đủ điện cho các nhu cầu của thế giới trong hàng trăm năm, nhưng nó có thể rất nguy hiểm. Một nguồn năng lượng thay thế là địa nhiệt đến từ sâu bên trong trái đất. Các nhà khoa học sử dụng nhiệt để tạo ra năng lượng. Tuy nhiên, năng lượng này chỉ có ở một vài nơi trên thế giới. Mặt trời, nước và gió là những nguồn năng lượng thay thế khác. Gió quay cối xay gió và di chuyển thuyền buồm. Đó là một nguồn năng lượng sạch và có rất nhiều. Thật không may, nếu gió không thổi thì cũng không có năng lượng gió. Khi nước di chuyển từ một nơi cao đến nơi thấp hơn, nó làm ra năng lượng. Tuy nhiên con người phải xây đập nước để sử dụng nguồn năng lượng này. Xây đập tốn rất nhiều tiền, vì vậy năng lượng nước cũng đắt đỏ. Mặt trời giải phóng một lượng lớn năng lượng mỗi ngày. Năng lượng này có thể được chuyển hóa thành điện năng. Nhiều quốc gia sử dụng năng lượng mặt trời cho cuộc sống hằng ngày của họ. Tấm pin mặt trời trên mái nhà có thể tạo ra đủ năng lượng để sưởi ấm hoặc làm mát toàn bộ ngôi nhà. Năng lượng mặt trời không chỉ phong phú và vô hạn mà còn sạch sẽ và an toàn. Mặc dù có một số nhược điểm, tiềm năng của các nguồn năng lượng thay thế là rất lớn. Tuy nhiên, làm thế nào để có thể tận dụng triệt để các nguồn năng lượng là một câu hỏi dành cho các nhà nghiên cứu trên toàn thế giới.
