It can help you as a single home owner. Itcan helpthe wholecountryas well.Whetheror notsolarenergy can save yourmoneydepends on many things. Where you live is one factor and the type of home you haveis another. Things like insulation (绝缘材料 ), present energy costs, and the typeof system you buy are added factors.Usingsolarenergycan helpsave ourpreciousfuel.As you know, our suppliesof oil and gas are very limited. There is just not enough on hand to meet all ourfuture energyneeds. Sooner or later Mother Nature will say thats all. The onlyway we can delayhearing those words isby startingtosaveenergynow and by usingother sources, like the sun.We wont have to worry about the suns running out of energy for anotherseveral billion years or so. Besides, the sun doesnt offer as many problems asother energy sources. For example, fossil fuel(矿物燃料 ) adds to already highpollution levels. With solar energy, we will still need sources of energy, but wewont need as much. That means we can cut down on our pollution problems.With all thesegood points,why dont we use more solarpower? There are many reasonsfor this. The biggest reason is money. Until now, it was just not practical for ahome owner to put in a solar unit. There were cheaper sources of energy.Allthatischanging now. Solarcosts arestartingtoequalthecostsofoiland electricity.Expertssay thatgas,oiland electricitypriceswillcontinuetorise. The demand for electricity is increasing rapidly.

There is probablysome truthin botharguments,butinrecentyearstheOlympic Gameshave done littletosupportthe view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there thetragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruinedby incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests.One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after thehockey( 曲棍球 ) final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match,the losersobjecting to the finaldecisions.They were sure thatone oftheirgoalsshouldnothave been disallowedand thattheiropponents victorywas unfair.Theirmanager was in great anger when he said,“This wasn t hockey. Hockey and theInternationalHockey Federa tionarefinished.” The presidentof theFederation saidlaterthatsuch behaviorcouldresultinthesuspension（停赛） oftheteam for atleast three years.Incidentsof thiskindwillcontinueas longas sportisplayedcompetitivelyratherthan for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as用心爱心专心4individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for.

What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?A. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved.B. Athletes should compete as individuals in the OlympicGames.C.
