I

find

it

interesting

sometimes

that

even

the

most

common

things

can

encourage

us

to

face

the

difficulty

bravely.

My wife, my daughter, and I moved into our home nine years

ago and we

16

a lot of time and energy in the yard to get it looking like it does

today.

We

live on a corner, higher than street level. There is a rock wall

17

our

yard.

But at the edge(

边缘

) of the yard, some rocks were thrown up onto

the

ground

as

if

someone

were

in

a

hurry

to

18

.

We called

this

area

our

“

rock

garden

”

. Whenever we planted flowers or plants, Denise or I would

stick

them

out(

伸出去

) to bring some

19

to the area.

Last summer I reached the end of the garden and found a tiny

little

20

that I could not immediately make sure what it was, I knew I didn

’

t plant it and Denise claimed that she didn

’

t

either. We decided to let it continue growing

21

we could tell what it was.

Weeks passed and as I made my way back to the

22

plant, it turned out to be a sunflower(

向日葵

). It

had a tall skinny stalk and only one head on it. I decided to

23

it and get the weeds(

杂草

) around it away. As

I moved away the rocks from the area, I noticed something

24

. The sunflower had not started where I saw

the stalk begin. It actually had begun under a big rock and grown under and around it to reach the

25

.

That

’

s when I

26

that if a tiny little sunflower didn

’

t let a big rock stand in its way of developing, we

should have the

27

of doing the same thing, too. Once(

一旦

) our environmentbegins to see that we believe

in ourselves like that little sunflower, we can get the same nourishment(

营养

) and growing up as well.

We need to believe in ourselves knowing we have the abilities in

28

our dreams. Like the sunflower, it

knew it had the abilities to get out of the difficulty because it trusted in the Universal Truth and believed it would

29

.

Stand tall like the sunflower and be proud of who and what you are and the environment will begin to

30

you. You will find a way to go under or around.

C

A number of companies have used the wind and the sun to produce energy.

Now,

one

company is using the force of flowing rivers and ocean waves.

The

company

is

based

in

the

U.S.

state

of

Maine.

It

is

called

the

Ocean

Renewable

Power Company, or ORPC. The company recently presented the new technology

at

an

energy

conference near Washington, opher Sauer, the CEO of ORPC says the

technology

was designed for small, lonely villages that do not have easy ways to get power.

The ORPC technology is an energy generator(

发电机

)which can be put under water in the river, called RivGen.

It works in a series of steps. First, the generator is put in the middle of a steel cage. The cage goes on top of a

wide boat with a flat bottom called a pontoon(

趸船

). Wheels

–

or, turbines(

涡轮机

)

–

are connected to each

side of the the pontoon boat is fixed to one place, it is flooded with water. The pontoon, cage, and

generator all sink to the bottom of the river. There, the river waves turn the wheels and creates as much as 50

kilowatts(

千瓦

)of power.

CEO Christopher Sauer says the generator is not very tall, so it can work in water areas that are not very deep,

but other companies are not able to work in shallow , Sauer says, the turbines are safe for the animals

that live in the river.

“

At the peak of salmon(

鲑鱼

) season, we had almost two million fish pass by this thing but

at the end of all of that, we did not have a single fish die that we knew about,

”

he said. Another feature of the

technology he mentioned is

“

crossflow turbines

”

. They permit the turbines to move in the same direction, no

matter what way the water is also says the turbines

’

shape permits the generator to harvest power

from tidal waves in the ocean. The company

’

s ocean turbine is called TidGen. It can create up to 600 kilowatts of

electricity, enough to power a small settlement(

定居点

).

Right now, the amount of power TidGen can harvest changes as the strength of the tide goes up and down.

But ORPC workers are trying to make the power output steady(

稳定的

). In time, they want TidGen power to be

part of the main energy.

CEO Christopher Sauer estimates ORPC

’

s current price is about 50 cents per kilowatt-hour. That price does

not make the ORPC system competitive with natural gas. However, for small lonely villages, energy from flowing
