25、ium sized coal- fired power station. The record 1,057 MW of capacity (生 产能力) in small-scale systems installed across the country broke the previous record set in 2012, figures from the Clean Energy Regulator showed on Tuesday. Australias solar power prosperity could almost double capacity in a year.
26、 The data also revealed that the average system size has also doubled since then from three to six kilowatts as average prices continued to fall. A fully insulted 5KW system coats an average of $ 5,930 in Australia, according to the energy broker S .au. Its records show that the price has roughly ha
27、lved in many capital cities since 2012. The regulators executive general manager, Mark Williamson, said there was increasing interest in renewals as a way to take control of electricity bills. But more importantly, he said it was also good news for reducing carbon emissions. “We are seeing a wide cr
28、oss-section of Australianshouseholds, community centers, schools, and small businessesreceiving rewards under the small-scale renewable energy scheme,” Williamson said “Our data shows consumers are embracing renewable energy to take control of their electricity bills.” In 2017, there was a 4l% incre
29、ase in installing renewable energy capacity across all states and territories compared to 2016. Queensland led the way with installed capacity at 295MW, with the Australian Capital Territory taking top place for the biggest annual increase by 57%. “The data collected by the Clean Energy Regulator in
30、 2017 reflects the industry is going from strength to strength. It looks like 2018 will be another big year for the solar industry.” The total of installed capacity for last year is expected to rise to 1.070MW when all the data is collected. A large coal-fired power station such as Loyd Yang A in Vi

D No spacecraft will ever land on the sun. the sun is a flaming ball of gas that reaches thousands of degrees Fahrenheit. But next year, a
35、 ship from Earth will fly closer to it than any man made craft has flown before. The mission(任务)is a big development for scientists and, maybe, for everyone else. In September 2018, NASA plans to launch the Parker Solar Probe. After a journey of nearly 90 million miles, it will fly within 3.8 millio
36、n miles of the sun. within two months of launching, the probe is expected to reach the suns corona(日冕). Thats the suns outer atmosphere of gases. Getting there wont be easy. Designing a spacecraft tough enough to hold up to the suns heat has proved difficult. But that hasnt stopped engineers from tr
37、ying. Temperatures in the corona can reach millions of degrees. The probe will limit itself to regions where things get no hotter than 2,500oF. Thats still a heavy heat load for a spacecraft. But a 4.5-inch-thick heat shield(罩)will protect the probes camera and scientific instruments. NASA says the
38、data the probe collects could provide knowledge into the physics of stars. Our sun is special to us. But as a star, its rather common. So the better we understand how it works, the better we understand all stars of its mass and color. Perhaps the most important is what the probe may show us about so
39、lar storms. During solar storms, charged particles stream through the solar system. They can disable communications satellites and shut down powder systems. One study has found that a very intense solar storm could cause up to $2 trillion in damage in the US alone. It could also black out the East C
40、oast for a year. Understanding solar storms might allow us to predict them and protect ourselves. That could make even a mission with a billion-plus price tag one of NASAs great bargains. - 7 - 32.What can we learn about the probe? A. Itll fly closer to the sun that the previous ones B. Its th
41、e first man made instrument to fly to the sun C. Itll get to the core of the sun in nearly two months D. Itll fly about 3.8 million miles to reach the corona. 33.What is the challenge for the engineers? A. Directing the probe to collect data B. Reducing the temperature of the probe C. Building a shi

45、way, so be observant. Great salespeople do this all the time by studying potential customers for bits and pieces of their lives they can relate to. Like someone and theyll like you right back 38.

47、presence Humans like things that are familiar, so just seeing you around in person makes you more likable to others. “This concept gives a whole new meaning o the idea of face time,” Casciaro said.40.
