Will solar energy ever be a main source of energy for industrial societies? The solar energy is cheaper
than any fossil fuel because we can get the abundant source of energy from the sun.
In sunny deserts, the sun’s radiation that reaches the ground can be used to produce electricity for
industries and homes. In one of experiment, solar ponds can produce hot water to drive generators.
Unfortunately, we can’t power our homes entirely on sunlight. Solar energy can only be exploited in bright
light. Its great potential, therefore, is in countries that have clear skies for most of the year. Most houses,
however, are not in the sunniest part of the world. In addition to convert sunlight directly into electricity,
solar cells are needed. Although they are very cheap to run, relatively they are expensive to buy and many
people can’t afford them.

generators? *

A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a great flood, a big fire or an earthquake. It usually causes
great suffering and loss of a large sum of money. The casualties are injured or died. Some people are
homeless and need medical care.
Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or streams overflow their banks and pour onto the
surrounding land. Floods are caused by many different things. Often heavy rainstorms that last for a brief
can cause a flood. But not all heavy storms are followed by flooding. If the surrounding land is flat and can
absorb the water, no flooding will occur. If, however, the land is hard and rocky, heavy rain cannot be
absorbed. Where the banks are low, a river may overflow and flood adjacent lowland.
In many part of the world flood are caused by tropical storms called hurricanes or typhoons. They bring
destructive winds of high speed, torrents of rain, and flooding. When a flood occurs, the destruction to
surrounding land can be severe. Whole villages and towns are sometimes swept away by water pouring
swiftly over the land. Railroad track blocked and uprooted from their beds. Highways are washed away.
When a building caught fire, the firemen pitched in to help battle the blaze. Before the pumps were
invented, people formed bucket brigades to fight fires. Standing side by side, they formed a human chain
from the fire to nearby well or river. They passed buckets of water from to hand to be poured on the
flames.
The damage of the fire did depend a great deal on where it happened. In the country or a small village,
only a single house might burn down. But in crowded cities, fire often destroyed whole blocks and
neighborhoods before being controlled.

The Buyat Bay, issue has been a hot topic these past two weeks. However, no party has claimed
responsibility for the pollution in the bay. This country is suffering from an old illness : it cannot see the
culprits even though it could - if it wanted to.
The issue started when a non-governmental organization discovered that a number of people living near
the bay in South Minahasa district, North Sulawesi province, were suffering from skin diseases.
Blood tests showed that some had high levels of mercury in their blood. Public opinion then turned against
the subsidiary of U.S based Newmont Minahasa Corp. PT Newmont Minahasa Raya, accusing it of
causing the pollution by dumping its tailings in the bay.

Nuclear power seems in some ways much cleaner than other sources of energy. Take oil or coal as an
example. When they are used in power stations, a great deal of smoke is produced. The smoke contains a
great deal of acid. Even if the smoke is cleaned by filters, a lot of the acid still escapes into the air. This
can be carried by clouds from power stations in England to Scandinavia. When it rains there, the acid
comes down with the rain. As a result, the fish, in lakes and trees in forests begin to die.
But many people are still against nuclear power. They believe that the problem is not just the danger of an
accident in the atomic power stations. Highly radioactive material is used. Radioactivity can cause cancer
and other illnesses. Only a part of the material is used. The rest - called waste - is just as radioactive.
Although it is still highly dangerous, this radioactive waste is often thrown into the sea. Nobody can be
certain what will happen to it there. Only one thing is certain. It will be highly dangerous for at least
240.000 years.

The average person will say that agriculture means farming. He is partly right, for raising crops is a branch
of agriculture. So do livestock raising, dairy farming, fruit growing, chicken raising and even fur farming.
Agricultural includes the raising of every kind of plants and animals that is useful to man.
With all its many branches, agriculture is the world’s most important industry. It supplies the food we eat
and many of the materials from which we make our clothing.
Farms are classified according to the type of farming that is done and kinds of crops and livestock that are
raised. They may be classified in several different ways, such as general, specialized, intensive, and
extensive farms.
General farming is a farm where a variety of things is raised. On such a farm there may be a herd of dairy
cows whose milk the farmer sells. There may also be poultry to provide extra income and supply some of
the family’s needs.
There are many factors that influence the types of crops and livestock that a farmer raised. The most
important one is climate which includes temperature, length of growing season, sunshine, and rainfall.
Another is the type of soil. The third is the amount of water available for irrigation. By concentrating on the
particular crops or animals that fit best with this situation, the specialized farmer hopes to use his land in
the most efficient and profitable way.
When a farmer devotes a great deal of labor to a piece of land, he is practising intensive agriculture. If he
works in a large area of land with relatively little labor, he is practising extensive agriculture. Intensive
agriculture usually goes together with small farms. A great deal of careful work is always involved in
intensive agriculture. Often this work must be done by hand. Extensive agriculture is usually practised on
large farms or ranches where most of the work is done by machinery.

Trappists are monks who are not allowed to preach or to teach. Their lives are devoted to meditation,
studying and reading.
In 1949, one group of Trappists fled to Hong Kong from China, leaving behind their houses and their dairy
industry. They dressed themselves as labourers and carried only a few possessions.
Here, the monks had to start a new life. They found it difficult to obtain food and they had nowhere to live;
but somehow they managed with the help of the community and charitable organizations. It was not until
1995 that the Hong Kong government granted them land on Lantao island.
The monks are not allowed to beg for a living, so they had to work very hard on the island. They started a
dairy farm, kept about five hundred chickens and started growing their own vegetables.
A large part of the work of the Trappists is concerned with their dairy. The cows are fed regularly, milked
and kept healthy. The dairy, which produces about two thousand bottles of milk a day, brings the monks
their main income. The monks sell about half of the milk to a large hotel in Hong Kong, while hospitals and
schools buy the rest. The monks also earn some money by selling eggs. Sometimes, the Trappists sell
some of their cattle. The monks themselves do not eat meat, however, as they are vegetarians.

Is life better in cities? Probably not. Many people find that the city of their dreams has become a
nightmare. Population growth is causing unbelievable overcrowding. Nairobi, Kenya, for example, has
basic-series for 200,000 people but will soon have a population of 5 millions. Mexico City is home to
almost 25 millions. This overcrowding causes many serious problems: traffic, pollution, sickness, and
crime. There isn’t enough water, transportation or housing. There aren’t enough sewers; in Sac Paulo,
Brazil, for instance, only 40% of the homes are connected to the city sewer system, which carries away
dirty water and waste through pipes under the ground. Perhaps most serious of all, there aren’t enough
jobs. One-third to one-half of the people in many cities in developing nations cannot find work or confined
only part-time jobs. The crisis is worsening daily; that is; this time of danger and difficulty is becoming
more horrible everyday. Population experts tell us that by the year 2025, the population in cities in
developing nations will increase to four times its present size.

Rice is the major staple food for most of the Indonesian people. The most liking impact of research over
the past year is its contribution to the change in Indonesia’s rice production from the world’s largest
importer of the major staple food to self-sufficiency. In creasing availability of seed of new varieties,
fertilizers and pesticides as well as favorable pricing policies, encouraged farmers to intensify their rice
fields.
Indonesian farmers often prefer to grow rice with good eating quality, then select varieties for other
characteristics such as high yield, early maturity, and resistance to certain pests and diseases. Therefore,
only a few varieties are grown widely by farmers.
Increased production of palawija crops-food crops other than rice that includes corn, soybeans, peanuts,
mungbeans, cassava, and sweet potatoes have been given a higher priority. One of the goals of the
agricultural development to continue to obtain sufficient rice production, but at the same time substantially
raise reducing of other crops to provide a more balanced diet for Indonesians and reduce costly imports. In
addition, these crops play an important role as animal feed and material for industries.
The government hopes to reach self-sufficiency in these crops, especially corn and soybeans through
intensification, extensification, and diversification programes. Production of corn and soybeans has begun
to climb. Peanuts have shown a small increase but production of cassava and sweet potatoes has
changed very little over the past years due mainly to marketing problems.
