Question

Scientists are trying to find new clean energies, so that they do not pollute the environment. Solar power(太陽能)is one of them.

Solar power is a kind of electricity.It takes energy from the sun by using solar panels(太陽能金屬板).People usually put the solar panels on the roofs of the houses and buildings.It is the family solar power system. Some countries are even beginning to build solar power factories by setting thousands of solar panels in some place, because there is enough sunshine. Solar power panels have many advantages. The power is easy to get and will never be used up. Whenever it is sunny, there is power. The power is clean and renewable. It helps to reduce waste and pollution.It is also great for the environment. In some places,because they are too far away to send electricity or not easy to build electric power factories, solar power is especially necessary.

More and more countries,such as China, the USA,Japan and India, encourage scientists to develop technology to put solar power into use. However, the power is not as widely used as expected（預(yù)期的）.

One of the difficulties is that a solar power system needs sunshine. Some countries having lots of rain, like the UK, are not suitable to develop such power systems. Secondly,a solar power factory requires a very large place to set enough solar panels to collect sunlight and change it into electricity. Maybe an area in the desert would be one of the perfect places for such a factory to build. What’s more, solar panels are expensive at present though the energy itself doesn’t cost anything.

Today scientists are working hard to develop cheaper solar power systems. Maybe one day solar power will be one of the most important clean energies in our life.
