Australia releases more greenhouse gases per person than almost any other country in the world.Its emissions(排放) come mainly from coal burned for electricity.Scientists warn that the Australian continent could suffer more severe dry periods,floods and storms as a result of climate change.
Australia wants to show that existing power stations can be refitted to burn coal in a much cleaner way.A demonstration project will seek to develop new technology over the next four years that makes it easier to capture carbon dioxide(二氧化碳). Carbon dioxide is the main gas that many scientists say helps cause global warming.
In traditional coal-fired power stations,the coal is burned in air in a big furnace(爐子) and the carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. In the new system,the coal is burned in pure oxygen instead of air. The captured carbon dioxide gas is then made into a liquid and buried deep underground.
The operators of the project in the northern state of
Geoff Wilson is the mines and energy minister in
The International Energy Agency has said that clean coal technology could help reduce the release of greenhouse gases by one-fourth.But a spokeswoman for the environmental group Friends of the Earth says the technology has very limited promise to cut emissions in the short term.

The annual marathon in my town usually occured during a heat wave .My job was to 36 behind the runners in an ambulance 37 any of them ended medical attention. The driver and I were in an air ----conditioned ambulance behind approximately one hundred athletes 38 to hear the sharp crack of the starting gun.
"We're supposed to stay behind the 39 runner, so take it slowly, "I said to the driver, Doug, as we began to creep forward.
" Let's 40 hope all the runners are fast ! "he laughed.
As they began to pace themselves, the front runners started to 41 . It was then that my 42 were drawn to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a baggy white T ----shirt.
"Koug, look !"
We knew we were already watching our "last runner". Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and 43 that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk, let alone run a marathon.
Doug and I watched in 44 as she slowly moved forward. We didn't say a thing. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to 45 some distance. Then we'd slowly move forward a little bit more.
Finally, she was the 46 runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face as I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with awe, amazement and even reverence(敬意)as she 47 forward with sheer determination through the last miles.
When the 48 line came into sight, trash(垃圾)lay everywhere and the 49 crowds had long gone home. 50 , standing straight and ever so proud waited a man. He was 51 one end of a ribbon of crepe paper tied to a post. 52 slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the paper fluttering behind her.
I do not 53 this woman's name, but that day she became a part of my life ----a part I often depend on. For her, it wasn't about 54 the other runners or winning a trophy(獎品), it was about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter 55 . When I think things are too difficult or too time ----consuming, I get those "I ----just ----can't ----do ----it", I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.

Last week,Bill Gates retired from full-time work at the world’s biggest computer software company, Microsoft.He will remain chairman of the company he established with Paul Allen in nineteen seventy-five.
Mister Gates leaves Microsoft at a time of change in the computing industry.Microsoft grew at a time when personal computers,or PCs,were replacing big mainframe computers as the main computing tools.He showed that huge profits could be made in software as PCs increasingly were found “on every desk and in every home.”
Early on,Microsoft understood the importance of the “network effect.” That is, software is the kind of product that increases in value as more people buy and use it.
Now,free Internet software threatens to replace PC-based software.Devices like “smart phones” connect people to the Internet.Google has become a 1eader in Internet Web searching and advertising.Microsoft has struggled to change with the new computer environment.Its efforts to sell music and its latest operating system,Vista,have not been big successes.And an attempt this year to buy Yahoo for over forty-seven billion dollars failed.
In the last several years,Bill Gates has slowly given control of Microsoft to others.In two thousand,he gave the job of chief executive officer to Steve Ballmer, a friend of his since their years at Harvard University.Mister Ballmer has been with Microsoft since nineteen eighty.Still,it is hard to overestimate(過高估計) the influence of Bill Gates on computing.He developed the business model that put the Windows operating system on about ninety percent of the world’s one billion PCs.Microsoft now has almost ninety thousand employees.
At fifty―two years old,Bill Gates is currently the third richest man in the world.He is worth about fifty-eight billion dollars.He remains Microsoft’s biggest shareholder.
Mister Gates will now spend most of his time working at his charity organization, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.The foundation is the world's largest charity with over thirty-seven billion dollars.It provides money for health, education and other projects,mostly in developing countries.
