An electric vehicle is a device with one engine for propulsion and it isalso referred to an electric drive vehicle.2. The motion can be provided using both wheels and propellers drivenby rotary motors.3. An electric drive vehicle uses electricity which comes from sourcessuch as batteries or generator.4. The energy can come from different sources such as fossil fuels,wind, solar, nuclear power and etc.5. The energy is supplied to the vehicle from refueling stations as it isstored in special separate tanks.6. Electric vehicles consist of garages, subways, refueling stations andeven network of mobile stations.3.10. Fill in the gaps with appropriate words and phrases from the text.1.

Ask him/her if he/she has an electric vehicleof his/her own? What type of electric vehicle does he/she have? Whatare advantages and disadvantages of electric vehicles?Writing3.12. Fill in the tableAdvantagesDisadvantagesUnit 4Before you read4.1. Answer the following questions and discuss in pairs.1. What does zero emission vehicle look like?2. In what spheres can they be used?4.2. Read the text and compare your answers with the information fromthe text.FUEL CELL VEHICLES-THE ZEVS OF THE FUTURE?Another type of Zero-Emission Vehicle is the fuel cell powered vehicle.When the fuel cells are fueled with pure hydrogen, they are considered to bezero-emission vehicles.
Fuel cells have been used on spacecrafts for manyyears to power electric equipment. These are fueled with liquid hydrogenfrom the spacecraft‟s rocket fuel tanks.Fuel cell vehicles turn hydrogen fuel and oxygen into electricity. Theelectricity then powers an electric motor, just like electricity from the batteries powers the motor of an electric vehicle.
Fuel cells combine oxygenfrom the air with hydrogen from the vehicle‟s fuel tank to produce electricity. When oxygen and hydrogen are combined they give off energy and water (H2O). In fuel cells this is done without any burning (combustion).There are a number of ways that hydrogen can be provided to the fuelcells. One way is simply to put hydrogen gas into the fuel cell, along with91air. Hydrogen gas can come from gaseous or liquid hydrogen stored on thevehicle.To carry gaseous hydrogen on a vehicle, it must be compressed. Whencompressed (usually to a pressure of about 3.000 pounds per square inch), itmust be stored in special high-pressure containers. This is similar to the waycompressed natural gas is stored on natural gas-fueled vehicles.Many people in the vehicle manufacturing business think that fuel cellvehicles may be the technology of the future.
However, a lot of work haveto be done to make fuel cell vehicles perform well enough to replace theinternal combustion engine in the vehicles we use today. They also willneed to be made much less expensive.At present, fuel cell vehicles have been developed to what might becalled the pre-prototype stage. That means there are very few fuel cell vehicles in existence, and all of them are actually used for testing.
Most carmanufacturers have been or are working on demonstration models, some ofwhich can reach a speed of 90 mph and can travel up to about 280 milesbefore they need refueling. DaimierChrysler has developed the NECAR 4and Ford calls its demonstration model P2000 Sedan.
Some manufacturersclaim they will have fuel cell cars available for the public in the next tenyears.4.3. Read and learn the vocabulary.1.
