Nuclear energy has always been controversial. But since the tsunami and nuclear disaster in Fukushima(Japan) in 2011, the issue is back in the headlines. And the world is divided—some countries are planning more nuclear plants, while others have promised to shut theirs down.
After Fukushima, Germany decided to switch off all its nuclear plants by 2022. __1.__ In fact, almost 80% of France's electricity comes from nuclear power, the highest percentage in the world. And in the US, the Obama administration said it “continues to support the expansion of nuclear power, despite the crisis in Japan.”
Nuclear supporters claim nuclear power can help the environment. _2._ So, pronuclear countries argue that nuclear power allows them to generate energy without contributing to climate change. Britain's chief scientific adviser(John Beddington) supports this view.
Nuclear power is also relatively cheap. Renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro and wind power may be clean, but they're expensive; and right now, they require a lot of investment. __3._ So, while many people may prefer their energy to come from a renewable source, not so many are prepared to pay higher energy bills.
__4._ For a start, nuclear waste is very difficult to dispose of, and remains toxic to humans for thousands of years. And even before Fukushima, there were several highprofile nuclear disasters. The most famous is probably the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, in the Ukraine. The radiation from the meltdown spread all over Europe, affecting thousands of people.
The nuclear energy issue is very complex. _5._ As a Japanese commentator recently said, “It's been a bad year for the ‘nuclear village’， but I don't think they're down and out yet.” The battle continues.
A．And it doesn't look like it'll be resolved anytime soon.
B．The main argument against nuclear energy is that it isn't safe.
C．Nuclear power could only end the world instead of saving it!
D．Many people believe that they will benefit from the unclear energy.
E．Unlike fossil fuels, nuclear power doesn't create greenhouse gases.
F．But France and the United States remain loyal supporters of atomic energy.
G．This higher cost of using “green energy” is usually passed onto the consumer.

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is absolutely terrifying.__ 1.__ However, most deaths result from panic, without a plan or understanding what is happening to the car in the water.By adopting a brace(支撑) position, acting decisively and getting out fast，you can save yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact(撞击力)．As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road and into a body of water，adopt a brace position.The impact could set off the airbag system in your vehicle，so you should place both hands on the steering wheel in the “ten and two” position.
Undo your seatbelt.__ 2._ Unbuckle the children，starting with the oldest first.Forget the cellphone call.Your car isn't going to wait for you to make the call.
__3._ Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on the window.A car's electrical system should work for up to three minutes in water，so try the method of opening it electronically first.Many people don't think about the window as an escape option either because of panic or misinformation about doors and sinking.
Break the window.If you aren't able to open the window，or it only opens halfway，you'll need to break it with an object or your foot.It may feel counterintuitive(有悖常理的) to let water into the car.__ 4._
Escape when the car has equalized.If it has reached the dramatic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water and it has become balanced，you must move quickly and effectively to ensure your survival.__ 5.__ While there is still air in the car，take slow，deep breaths and focus on what you're doing.
A．Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B．Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C．It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usually.
D．Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of drowning.
E． In conclusion，if you know what to do in the water，you will be safe.
F．This is the first thing to attend to，yet it often gets forgotten in the panic.
G．But the sooner the window is open，the sooner you can escape directly through it.
