2．Greg Dailey closed his picture frame store due to the coronavirus pandemic（冠状病毒大流行），and his second job of delivering newspapers became his primary source of income.
Dailey's grocery trips began when one of his elderly customer asked him for a favor. "Mrs.Ross called me on Wednesday before my store shutting down and asked if I could throw the newspaper closer to her house." he tells Yahoo Life."A couple of days later，I was standing in a grocery，and I called her and asked if she needed anything from a grocery.She was astonished.Moments later，she called me back and asked if I wouldn't mind grabbing something from Mrs.Miller across the street."
Soon，Dailey's 800 customers found a note he wrote tucked in with their newspaper，offering his help.

Dailey reopened his frame store on June 15，and he promised to continue to help seniors not only with groceries but with anything else they need.He knows those he helps will remain a part of his life going forward.

3．In the west of the city Seville in Spain，a sea of giant mirrors is reflecting the sun's energy to provide "concentrated solar power（CSP）" while brightening the path to a new wave of green energy projects.
The 624 carefully positioned mirrors reflect the sun's heat towards a 50-meter-tall central tower where it is concentrated and used to boil water into steam.The superheated steam is then used to turn a turbine（汽轮机） that can produce up to 11 megawatts of electricity --- enough power for 6，000 homes --- according to Solucar，the Spanish company that has built the power plant.
The Spanish tower，known as PS10，is the first stage of an ambitious development.By 2025 it is hoped that additional towers will create "a solar farm" with an output of 500 megawatts，which would be enough power for 180，000 homes，almost the entire population of nearby Seville.
CSP produces no greenhouse gases and the only pollution is visual.There is also the possibility that production can keep going around the clock --- even when the sun has gone down.Solucar is currently testing technology at a plan near Granada that will pump 50 percent of the electricity generated in the day into the Spanish national grid（国家输电网），and use the other 50 percent to melt salt，which will then act as a kind of battery，storing the sun's power.When dusk falls，the heat stored in the molten salt can be used to generate power through the night.
The Sahara，the world's largest desert，has always been seen as a problem.But with large scale CSP projects，suddenly all that empty space，with its year round clear skies and hot sun，has a value that could transform local economies.It could potentially turn Africa into an exporter of energy to power hungry Europe.
（1）What is the Spanish tower PS10 used to do according to the text？
A．Store boiled water.
B．Generate electricity.
C．Reflect the sun's energy.
D．Brighten the path nearby.
（2）The underlined phrase "a solar farm" in paragraph 3 refers to a place where.
A．towers like PS10 are set up
B．greenhouses are built to make profits
C．crops are grown with new technology
D．farmers mainly use solar energy at home
（3）The plant near Granada melts salt in the day so that.
A．molten salt works better than water when producing electricity
B．melting salt can reduce environmental pollution
C．some sun power can be saved for the night use
D．salt is easy to melt in the sun
（4）Which word can best describe the author's attitude towards the future of CSP？
A．Critical.
B．Doubtful.
C．Subjective.
D．Optimistic.组卷：1引用：4难度：0.6
