8 分 阅读理解 Thousands of years ago people didn t know that the Earth moved They thought the sun really did move across the sky The Greek god Helios was said to drive the sun across the sky with his

that is powered by the sun It has special parts on its wings These parts absorb 吸收 power from the sun They absorb so much power that the plane can still fly even at night In Greek mythology 神话 Helios

energy is not entirely ready yet It needs to be improved But the best thing about it is that unlike coal and gas it doesn t run out The Solar Impulse plane could pretty much keep flying forever Of course the sun s light will eventually run out too one day but not for another 5 billion years That s a pretty long flight 1 The plane Solar Impulse A cannot fly at night B is powered by chemicals C
