【小編寄語】職稱英語考試中的閱讀理解有3篇文章，每篇300-450詞，每篇文章后有5道題（四選一，第31-45題，每題3分，共45分），考查應試者對文章主旨和細節(jié)信息的理解能力。這里，小編給大家精選了閱讀理解的中英文語句材料，幫助大家積累詞匯，復習語法知識，為考試打下基礎(chǔ)。
滬江小D提醒：鼠標懸停在顏色不同的單詞上或劃選單詞即可獲得詳細釋義哦~
The Magic of Energy（能的魔力）
Mechanical Energy
機械能
11. In simplest terms, this is the energy of a moving object. Your heartbeat, the pushing of a lawn mower, a baseball speeding through the air, water falling onto a waterwheel, the prying up of a rock with a crowbar-all are mechanical energy, which, of course, was another form of energy earlier.
11、用最簡單的術(shù)語來描述，機械能就是移動著的物體擁有的能量。你的心臟跳動、推進割草機、棒球在空中高速飛過、水落入水輪機、用撬杠撬開石頭等等，所有這些都是機械能，當然，在轉(zhuǎn)化之前它是另一種能量形式。
Electrical Energy
電能
12. Electrical energy usually has to be changed to another form before it actually does what we want it to do. In the toaster, it changes to heat; in a tiny wrist watch or a subway train or a 75,000 horse-power industrial motor, it changes to mechanical energy. In an industrial process called electrolysis, it changes to chemical energy.
12、通常情況下，電能必須先轉(zhuǎn)化為另一種形式的能，才能為我們所用。對烤面包機來說，電能轉(zhuǎn)化成熱能，在一個小小的手表里或者地鐵列車里或者一臺75000馬力的工業(yè)電動機里，電能轉(zhuǎn)化成機械能。在所謂的電解工業(yè)的過程中，它轉(zhuǎn)化成化學能。
Chemical Energy
化學能
13. Various fuels such as coal, gas, oil and food are common examples of chemical energy. These fuels give off heat when they burn. The process is called combustion or oxidation, and the heat itself is a form of energy. Man uses the energy from some kind of fuel for everything from flying to the moon to thinking about it.
13、最常見的化學能包括煤、天然氣、石油、和食物等各種各樣的燃料。當這些燃料燃燒時釋放出熱能。這個過程我們稱之為燃燒或者氧化反應，同時熱本身也是能量的一種形式。人們從不同燃料中得到的能量，并用這些能量做任何事情，大到飛上月球，小到頭腦的思考。
14. A special kind of chemical energy is nuclear energy, sometimes called atomic energy. These names come from the fact that the source of energy the nucleus, or core, of the atom, nuclear fuels much as plutonium and uranium give off heat energy when fission(the splitting of atoms in these fuels) occurs. Already we have seen tremendous advances in the use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, and many people see nuclear energy as the future answer to almost all of our energy need.
14、核能是一種特殊的化學能，有時候我們稱之為原子能。這個名稱來自于原子能來源于核、或者原子核這樣的事實。當核燃料，例如钚和鈾，發(fā)生核裂變時釋放出熱能（這些燃料中原子發(fā)生分裂）。我們已經(jīng)看到和平利用核能所帶來的巨大好處，并且很多人認為核能可以看作解決未來人類能源需求問題的答案。
15. Energy-the kind of magic we can't live without.
15、能，是與人類生存息息相關(guān)的一種魔力。
