There are three separate sources ofhazard in the process ofsupplying energy by
nuclear power.
The radioactive material must travel frorn its place of manufacture to the power
station. Although the power station themselves are solidly built, the container used to
ffansport of the materials are not. There are normally only two methods of transport of the
materials available namely road and rail. Unfortunately both of these involves close
contact with general public, since the routes are sure to pass near, or even though, heavily
populated areas.
)rlext, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power station produce waste that
in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years. it is impossible to make these
wastes non-radioactive, and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that
scientists have invented. For exampie they may be buried under the ground, or dropped
into abandone<i mines. or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do not solve the
problem, since an earthquake could easily crack the containers open,
Irinally, there is the problem of accidental exposure due to leak or an explosion, at
the power station. At with the other two hazards, this is not very likely, so that it does n<lt
provide a serious objection to the nuclear program. Neverlheless, it can happen.
Separately, these three types of risks are not great causes for concenr. Cn the il&ole

A. Three sources of hazard in nuclear pow'er.
B. The causes nuclear power to explode.
C. The radioactive produced in nuclear power is dangerous.
D. The probability of disaster in nuclear power is high.
E. Accidental exposure is often caused by leak or explosion.
:.8. Irr the writer's view, why is danger likely to happen when transporting nuclear power?
A. It is transported on road or rail.
B. The railway is not well built.
C. The storing object may leak.
D. It passes mines and tunnels.
E. The routes are not safe.

29. I{cw does the writer argue about waste of nuclear power?
A. it is easy to burn.
B. It causes land pollution.
C. It remains radioactive forever.
D. The waste container easily leaks.
E. Natural disaster may destroy the waste storage.
