中考英语时文阅读:(环保)中国引领世界实现碳中和
2020 年 9 月,中国宣布了 “双碳” 目标,即 2030 年前实现碳达峰、2060 年前实现碳中和;在可再生能源领域,中国当前的风电和太阳能发电装机容量超 1400 吉瓦,2024 年可再生能源发电量达 1.83 万亿千瓦时,约占总发电量的 18%;中国还建立了全国碳交易市场,2024 年该市场碳交易量为 1.89 亿吨,价值 181.1 亿元,碳价首次突破每吨 100 元;在森林增长方面,中国是全球最大贡献者,森林蓄积量达 209.9 亿立方米,2020 年以来贡献了全球约四分之一的新增绿地。不过,中国在绿色发展中仍面临挑战,煤炭占能源需求比重超 50%,从煤炭向可再生能源转型难度大且成本高,但中国对绿色发展的投入为其他国家应对气候变化树立了良好榜样。
一、阅读理解
阅读下文,根据短文内容,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
China is leading the world in fighting climate change with ambitious environmental goals. In September 2020, the President announced China's dual carbon targets: reaching peak carbon emissions before 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality before 2060.
China has made impressive progress in renewable energy development. Our country now has over 1,400 gigawatts (GW) of wind and solar power capacity. In 2024 alone, China added 278 GW of solar power and 79.8 GW of wind power. This renewable energy generated 1.83 trillion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity, representing about 18 percent of China's total power output.
China has also created a national carbon trading market. Companies that produce too much carbon pollution must buy permits from companies that pollute less. In 2024, this market traded 189 million tons of carbon worth 18.11 billion yuan. For the first time, carbon prices exceeded 100 yuan per ton.
China has become the world's largest contributor to forest growth. Our country's forest volume has reached 20.99 billion cubic meters. China has added about one-fourth of all new green spaces globally since 2020.
However, China still faces challenges. Coal provides over 50 percent of our country's energy needs. The transition from coal to renewable energy is difficult and expensive. Despite these challenges, China's commitment to green development shows how nations can address climate change through determined action.
