As global temperatures increase, many places have become too hot and dry to be used for agriculture. 24 ), there is increasing pressure to produce renewable energy, such as Solar power. The problem with solar power, though, is that solar panels take up a lot of space, To solve both these problems at once, researchers have recently come up with a way to combine solar power and crop production. 25 One common challenge in farming is that a lot of direct sunlight ( Not only can it cause the leaves to turn brown and dry, but the heat from the sunlight also quickly dries up the water in the ground. This means that the plants do not get enough water to survive. The researchers decided to set up solar panels at about 2.5 meters above the ground. These created a space with shade for plants and also reduced the amount of water that dried up, which helped to increase crop production. The solar panels were also able to benefit from the crops. Solar panels do not ). However, crops like lettuce and kale create a cooling perform well ( 26 effect, which stops the solar panels from overheating and allows them to work more efficiently. The results of this research show that it is possible to produce more food, save space, and enjoy the benefits of solar power. 2(24) 2 At the same time 1 Without this 3 After a while 4 Indeed |(25) 2 is difficult to find 1 damages crops 3 attracts more insects 4 makes vegetables taste bad (26) at high temperatures 1 2 near cool water 3 under large trees 4 on cloudy days dial 20年度第3回検定一次試験(2級) copyright2021 公益財団法人日本英語検定協会 無断転載·複製を禁じます
