How do We Get Energy from Water?

From high in the hills, water flows down in rivers and falls its way to the sea. This mass of movement can be used to generate energy to work a machine, with the water falling on the blades of the wheel, making it turn. This wheel is connected to a machine like a mill wheel, grinding corn.

In ancient times, the use of hydraulic or water energy was not used very much. But from the Middle Ages onwards, it increased as well as grinding cereals, it went on to weaving, paper making, metal-working and so on.

Then came the discovery of electricity and water came to be used to produce electrical energy in hydro-electric stations. Dams were built to create artificial lakes from which water fell on the turbines os a station at the foot of a dam.

Like the old water mills, when then water makes the turbines turn, they set the generator working which produces the electricity.

From the Middle Sages onwards, people used water energy to do the following things, except ….
A.    Rice or wheat planting
B.    Paper-making
C.    Metal-working
D.    Grinding cereal

Jawaban untuk pertanyaan ini terdapat pada keterangan-keterangan sebagai berikut:
In ancient times, the use of hydraulic or water energy was not used very much. But from the Middle Ages onwards, it increased as well as grinding cereals, it went on to weaving, paper making, metal-working and so on.

Terjemahannya adalah sebagai berikut:
Pada zaman dahulu, penggunaan energi hidrolik atau air tidak terlalu banyak digunakan. Tapi dari Abad Pertengahan dan seterusnya, hal tersebut meningkat untuk menggiling sereal, kemudian berlanjut untuk tenun, pembuatan kertas, pengerjaan logam dan sebagainya.

Berdasarkan keterangan-keterangan tersebut dapat kita ketahui bahwa berdasarkan teks di atas, orang-orang menggunakan energi air untuk menggiling sereal, tenun, pembuatan kertas dan pengerjaan logam. Sehingga, dapat disimpulkan orang-orang tidak menggunakan energi air untuk penanaman padi atau gandum.
