When the Audet family turns on the lights at Blue Farm, they are using electricity that comes from cows- cow manure(粪肥).Cows produce a lot of waste. One cow can create 30 gallons of waste each day. Now imagine the output of over 1,000 cows at Blue Farm. Thats really a big amount.When farmers clean their barns, they put the waste together，and spread some of it on their fields for fertilizer(肥料). But now places like Blue Farm have a new way of using cow waste. They use it to produce electricity.Heres how it works: A big machine moves back and forth cleaning the barn floor. The cows are animals of habit; they get used to it,and just lift one foot and then another to let it go by. says Marie Audet.The machine pushes the manure into a big 600-gallon tank like a small swimming pool. The tank is called a digester(化粪池) because what happens there is just like what happens inside a cow: Bacteria(细菌) get to work and continue to digest the manure.Methane gas(甲烷;沼气) in the atmosphere is known as a greenhouse gas because it keeps heat just like a greenhouse does, causing our planet to warm up. Thats an environmental concern. But the digester has a good result. Its gas is kept and used to power electric generators(发电机).At Blue Farm, the generators make enough electricity to power 400 homes. The Audet family sells the extra electricity they cant use themselves.（1）We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow waste to _.

A . reducingB . savingC . recyclingD . changing（5）The electricity made by the generators can give power to _ homes at Blue Farm. A . 1, 000B . 400C . 30D . 600（6）What is the main purpose of writing the passage? A . To introduce a new way of making electricity.B . To explain how a new kind of energy works better.C .
