10、other countries debate whether to fix wind turbines(涡轮机) offshore or in distant areas, Denmark is building them right in its capital. Three windmills(风车) were recently introduced in a Copenhagen neighbourhood, and the city plans to add another 97.“Weve made a very ambitious commitment to make Copenh

11、agen CO2-neutral by 2025,” Frank Jensen, the mayor, says. “But going green isnt only a good thing. Its a must.” The citys carbon-neutral plan, passed two years ago, will make Copenhagen the worlds first zero-carbon capital.With wind power making up 33% of Denmarks energy supply, the country already

12、features plenty of wind turbines. Indeed, among the first sights greeting airborne visitors during the landing at Copenhagens Kastrup airport is a chain of sea-based wind towers. By 2020, the windswept country plans to get 50% of its energy from wind power.Now turbines are moving into the city and t

13、hese ones will cost less than half the price of those sea-based. Having the energy production closer makes it cheaper, and land-based turbines are the cheapest possible source of energy available today. Fixing them also makes the locals more aware of their energy consumption.Though considerably less

14、 attractive than it was in ancient times, the windmill is enjoying popularity in the 21st century. “Windmills are a symbol of the new and clean Copenhagen,” says resident Susanne Sayers. Meanwhile, fellow Copenhagen citizen Maria Andersen worries about the noise, explaining that she wouldnt want a w

15、ind turbine in her neighbourhood. While Copenhagen citizens approve of the windmills, theyre less willing to live close to one. The answer, the city has decided, is to sell turbine shares.Each share represents 1,000 kW hours/year, with the profit tax-free. With a typical Copenhagen household consumi

16、ng 3,500 kW hours/year, a family buying four shares effectively owns its own renewable energy supply. To date, 500 residents have bought 2,500 shares. Involving the local population was a smart move. “There are a lot of things you can do close to people if its not too big and if theres a model where

17、 locals feel involved and get to share in the profit. Knowing that you, or your neighbours, own a technology creates a very different atmosphere than if a multinational owned it,” says Vad Mathiesen.Going green? Yes. Accepted by the population? Yes. Going with centuries-old city architecture? Hardly

18、.Certainly, the three turbines dont exactly blight the 18th-century city centre, as they are in a neighbourhood 3 km away. According to the mayors office, none of the remaining 97 turbines will rise in architecturally sensitive areas. But Sascha Haselmayer, CEO of city creation group Citymart, warns

19、, “With Denmark being a world-leading producer of windmills, there is a risk that the answer to every energy question is windmills.”“Weve destroyed mountains and lakes in order to support our lifestyle,” notes Irena Bauman, an architect and professor at Sheffield University. “Wind turbines are a sig

20、n that were learning to live with nature. I hope well have them all over the world,” she says. “They may be unpleasant to some, but better-looking ones will come. Its just that we dont have time to wait for them!”1. Denmark has decided to build windmills in its capital mainly to _.A. make windmills

How has the city of Copenhagen persuaded its people to accept the windmills around their homes?A. By promising them that all their income i

22、s free of tax.B. By designing less noisy windmills to ease their worries.C. By convincing them that land-based turbines are much cheaper.D. By offering them the chance to get the profit the windmills bring.3. The underlined word “blight” (Paragraph 8) is closest in meaning to _.A. spoil B. improve C

23、. pollute D. occupy4. Sascha Haselmayers attitude to building windmills can best be described as _.A. disapproving B. unconcerned C. cautious D. enthusiastic5. Which of the following words would Irena Bauman most probably agree with?A. “It benefits us more to fit wind turbines in cities than in moun

24、tain areas or by lakes.”B. “We should sell more wind turbines to other countries to make us one of the richest.”C. “We should devote more time to developing the wind turbines that go with the city.”D. “Its not what wind turbines look like but how we live that really matters at present.”【答案】BDACD【解析】
