19、s often believed that unclear energy is something we cannot do without. We live in a consumer society with a huge demand for commercial products of all kinds. Besides, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase assumes

20、an abundant and cheap energy supply. Many people believe nuclear energy provides an endless and economical source of power and that it is therefore fundamental for an industrially developing society. Among other advantages is that unclear power, except for accidents, is clean. A further advantage is

21、 that a unclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and administrative staff. The nuclear reactor represents a great step in our scientific evolution and, whatever the anti-nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive sources of fuel.However, o

22、pponents(people who oppose something)of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct danger not only to the environment but also to civil liberties. Environmentalists argue in the long run nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which cou

23、ld bring about the destruction of the human race. Furthermore, it is questionable whether unclear power is a cheap source of energy when everything is considered. There have, for example, been very costly accidents in America, in Britain and, of course, in Russia. The possibility of increases in the

24、 cost of uranium（铀）in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could price nuclear power out of the market.In spite of the case against nuclear energy above, nuclear energy programmes are expanding, which assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. However, it

25、is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. Having weighed up the arguments in both sides, it seems that there are good economic and ecological reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power. 28Whats the writers attitude toward nuclear energy?AObjective.BNegative.C.Tolerant.

But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.Every child , regardless of the circumstances into

29、 which they are born，has the right to achieve their potential，regardless of their parents wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation，it is a long way to achieve this goal .But rights come with responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of neglecting the latter. Far t

30、oo many children are behaving badly at school，even to the point of being violent to staff.

31、table，and unable to use the lavatory properly. We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof.
