II. Read the following passage, and then choose the best answer. 
 The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities are burning 
garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity- Converting waste products to gases or oil is also 
an efficient way to dispose of wastes. Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil 
shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness 
power with giant windmills. Geothermal power is also being tested. Some experts expect utility companies to 
revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third 
of the electricity used in the United States, but today it supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential 
source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to 
electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce 
energy.
1. What is the best title of the passage?
 a. The Use of Water Products for Energy b. The Search for Alternative Sources of Energy
 c. Efficient Ways of Disposing of Waste d. New Discoveries in Geothermal Power
2. What provided one third of the electricity in the United States fifty years ago?
 a. wind b. waste products c. water d. oil
3. What could best replace the phrase 'geothermal power' in the passage?
