II. Read the passage and choose the best option for each question or statement. (1.0pt)
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 rely 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 drawbacks. We can only generate solar energy
during daytime because the system depends on sunlight. Besides, solar cells require large
area 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.
26. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Advantages and disadvantages of solar energy.
B. Solar energy's advantages over other sources of energy.
C. The cost of solar energy.                       
D. Solar energy as an alternative for fossil fuels.
27. What does the word “they” in line 4 refer to?

thuvienhoclieu.com Trang 3
 thuvienhoclieu.com
A. solar energy users.       B. other renewable resources.       
C. advantages.       D. solar cells.
28. What is NOT mentioned as an advantage of solar cells?
A. They require little maintenance.         B. They are non-polluting.
C. They cost little to produce.           D. They operate quietly.
29. Which of the following is a traditional source of energy?
A. solar energy              B. power energy         C. coal       D. wind energy
30. What can the word maintenance in line 7 be replaced for?
A. neglect B. resources          C. distruction          D. preservation
