33、判斷題。分析第三段中Tnthedamarcmanyturbinesandoneachturbinethereisanelectricgenerator.Whenthetiderises,watercomesthroughthedam,theturbinesturnandtheelectricgeneratorswork,producingelectricity.Whenthetidefall,watergoesoutthroughthedam,theturbinesturnagain.可知，水壩里有許多渦輪機，每個渦輪機上都有一個發(fā)電機。漲潮時，水通過大壩，渦輪轉(zhuǎn)動，發(fā)電機工作，產(chǎn)生電力。退潮
34、時，水流通過大壩流出，渦輪再次轉(zhuǎn)動。所以turbine是讓發(fā)電機工作的機器。故選B。3. 推理判斷題。A：我們可以用它來獲取有用的潮汐。B：它可以改善海洋環(huán)境。C：我們幾乎可以隨時使用它。D：滿足16.4%的電力需求。根據(jù)第四段hUsingtidalenergytoproduceelectricityismuchcheaperthanusingthetraditionalenergy,likecoalorgas.和“Inaddition,withthedevelopmentofmoderntechnology,tidalenergycanbestoredandusedtoproduceelec
35、tricitycontinuously.可知，潮汐發(fā)電的優(yōu)勢一是利用潮汐能發(fā)電比使用煤炭或天然氣等傳統(tǒng)能源要便宜得多；二是隨著現(xiàn)代技術(shù)的發(fā)展，潮汐能可以被儲存起來，并用于持續(xù)發(fā)電。結(jié)合選項，故選C。4. 細節(jié)理解題。A：挖掘更多的海灣和河口。B：通過建造更便宜的潮汐發(fā)電站。C：通過關(guān)閉傳統(tǒng)電力。D：利用潮汐能來替代其他能源。根據(jù)第二段中Tomakeuseoftidalenergy,weneedtobuildtidalpowerstations/可知，為了利用潮汐能，我們需要修建潮汐能電站。結(jié)合選項，故選B。TherearcsomeinterestingfactsabouttheNile.
