阅读下面一篇短文，根据其内容填空。

Wind power is a very clean source of energy. This is how wind power works. Wind makes windmills spin(旋转). When the windmills spin, they make electricity. Then we can use the electricity.

A lot of people think that wind power is new, but that’s not true. For thousands of years, people have used wind to sail boats and move water. We still do those things today, but these days we mostly use wind power to make electricity.

Wind power is a very popular source of energy. Most people think that we should use it more and more. First of all, it’s clean. Wind mills don’t pollute the environment at all. Second, we can use wind power forever. After all, we will always have wind. Also, wind power is cheap, and it’s getting even cheaper.

A lot of people don’t understand wind power very well. They believe that there are problems with wind power, but many of those problems are not real. For example, some people say that windmills are dangerous for birds. That used to be true, but it isn’t true anymore. Old windmills killed birds because they spun very fast. New windmills spin slowly, and they aren’t dangerous for birds.

However, there are real problems with windmills. One problem is that many people think windmills are very ugly. This is a problem for some people because windmills are often in very pretty areas. Also, wind doesn’t blow all the time, so we can’t use wind power all the time. Finally, windmills are noisy.

Wind power is becoming more and more common. Right now, more than 80 countries use wind power. About 2.5 percent of the world’s power comes from the wind. For some countries, that number is a lot higher. Wind power gives Denmark more than 25 percent of its electricity.

（1）Wind power can be turned into __________ when windmills spin.

（2）People have used wind to __________ and move water for a long time.

（3）New windmills don’t __________ because they spin at a slow speed.

（4）One of the real problems with windmills is that they __________.

（5）This passage mainly introduces a kind of clean, __________ energy to us.

Reading Expression

In China, more and more people have realized the seriousness of climate（气候） change. Many young people have been living a low-carbon（低碳） life.

Zheng Xiyu is one of them. She has been trying to reduce her carbon footprint. Every morning, she takes a bus to her office and it takes her about 40 minutes. But Zheng has been thinking of changing this. She wants to try a different means（方式） of transport—cycling. Riding a bicycle to work, the lady says, takes about the same amount of time as taking a bus. “However, it’s better for the environment and my health.” she says.

Professor Li Lin has also been leading a low-carbon lifestyle. Her office uses energy-saving lights. These lights go off themselves when they are not needed. This has saved a large amount of electricity. Another way to save energy is to double-print the paper. Professor Li says small actions like these are important for protecting the environment. “Let’s say you have saved one ton of paper. That’s about two and a half tons of CO2.” Professor Li says.

Lin Hui always chooses products with a longer life when he shops. He says this helps to reduce waste. Two years ago, Lin and his friends set up an environment website, where he wanted to give some advice on saving energy and protecting the environment.
