D．itishardtofindgeothermalenergyinJapan

【参考答案解析】A

【要点综述】文章主要讲述了日本正在考虑开发地热能这样一件事，因为日本是地震多发国家，国家地热能非常丰富，所以地热能将是日本的新型替代能源。

1．D　文章主要讲述了日本正在考虑开发地热能，所以是围绕地热能的话题展开。

故选D项。

2．B　从第六段“Fornow,geothermalenergymakesuplessthan1percentoftheenergyneedsinJapan,whichhasfordecadesreliedheavilyonfossilfuelsandatomicpower.”可知，日本地热能不到1%，主要依赖于化石燃料和原子能。

故选B项。

3．A　从倒数第四段“…addingthatregulationsprotectingnaturewouldneedtoberelaxedforgeothermalenergytogrow.”可知，要开发地热能，需要将现行的规章制度进行改变，故选A项。

4．B　从“Producingelectricityusinghotspringsisadecadeslongproject.”可知，HideakiMatsui认为地热能是个长期的项目，故选B项。

5．C　从最后两段“…believedJapancouldproduce80，000megawatts（兆瓦）andmeetmorethanhalfitselectricityneedswithgeothermaltechnology…”可知，日本在地热能方面有着巨大的潜力，故选C项。
