Smelly methane(沼气)gas expelled from landfill sites containing tones of rotting household waste could be used to produce a valuable energy resource. In Europe alone land fill tips produce 94 billion cubic meters of methane per year but currently only one percent of what could be a valuable source of energy is used, the rest is burnt off to prevent an explosive build up of gas. Methane gas forms when organic matter breaks down and is drawn off from large rubbish tips by pipes sunk into the middle of the waste. Until now this process wasn’t possible on small sites because the pipe allowed oxygen to seep in and that stop the breakdown process. Viktor Popov of the Wessex Institute of Technology has now developed a system to modify existing landfill sites by making them airtight while the methane is extracted from sunken wells. The site is covered by a special three-layered skin whose two outer layers are made of clay with a pressurized(加压的)layer of carbon dioxide gas in the middle. As the methane is sucked out through a central well it is replaced by carbon dioxide from the middle layer rather than oxygen, allowing the breakdown process to continue. Unfortunately there are no plans to use the power of methane even though Popov claims his invention could provide a valuable source of energy over the next 20 years. The passage mainly introduces ______ to us. A.how to make methane     B.a new way to make use of rubbish  C.the valuable things in rubbish  D.the amount of rubbish beig reused From the passage we can see that _____. A.in Europe 94 billion cubic meters of methane is produced every year B.some of the waste will explode if it is not burnt off C.99% of the rubbish has been burnt off in Europe D.only a very small part of this kind of energy is used in Europe In the passage the underlined word “that” refers to ______. A.methane gas     B.the long pipe    C.oxygen     D.the rubbish Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage? A.Oxygen can cause the breakdown process to stop. B.When the methane is sucked out, oxygen will enter from the middle layer. C.Carbon dioxide doesn’t affect the breakdown process. D.The new invention has not been put into use.
