PTE听力口语练习-科学60秒:Solar Roadways

PTE考生目前最大的问题之一就是练习题缺乏。除了有限的基本官方书(PLUS,Testbuilder, OG)之外

就没有题了。很多英语基础不是很扎实的同学很难找到练习材料。悉尼文波雅思PTE培训学校专门为澳洲,尤其是悉尼、墨尔本的PTE考生准备了适合PTE听力阅读练习的科学60秒。各位PTE同学可以练习PTE听力中的summarise spoken text和PTE口语中的retell lecture,PTE听力口语-科学60秒-Frosty Moss练习记笔记技巧和复述。废话少说,下面开始:

The path to solar roadways is said to be paved with good intentions.

But actually it’s going to be paved with modular, concrete-reinforced photovoltaic panels protected by tempered glass.
At least that’s the vision that Idaho-based Solar Roadways has had for the past few years.
So far they’ve managed to build an 11-meter-long solar parking lot next to the company’s lab.
Meanwhile, the Dutch are taking a slightly different approach.
This week a town in the northern suburbs of Amsterdam officially opened a 70-meter stretch of bike path they claim is the world’s first road to convert sunlight into electricity.
They plan to add at least another 25 meters to the Sola Road project in the next two years.
They’re testing the bike path for two things, mainly.

Can it generate enough juice to power street lighting, traffic systems, electric cars and households?

And will it hold up to the daily wear and tear of cyclists, joggers and baby strollers, not to mention extreme weather and falling objects?
If Sola Road proves successful in both areas, the Dutch hope to extend the project to turn entire thoroughfares into massive solar panels.
Designed by, ya know, road scholars.
