Do you know the warmth you feel on your skin from the Sun is actually a type of energy? Do you want to try using it yourself? Today, we're going to dive into a super fun sun science experiment: building a solar tower!
You can try this project at home. You just need some tape, a pin(别针), paper, scissors, three cans and two books of equal size, and lastly, a sunny day! Now, we're going to build the solar tower.
First, cut off the tops and bottoms of the cans, place the cans on top of each other and tape them together. Once the tower is ready, start working on the pinwheel(风车) with a piece of square paper, about 15 cm×15 cm. Next, use a pin to connect the pinwheel with the tower. Finally, put the can tower on top of the books, which are 5 cm apart from each other. So there's a gap(间隔) at the bottom, allowing the air to enter the tower.
Now, all we have to do is set the whole thing near a window, where there's direct sunlight. When the sun shines on the tower, it warms the air in the tower. The warmer air moves upward through the tower and makes the pinwheel turn around as it passes by. Then cooler air comes in

through the gap from the bottom of the tower, gets heated up, and rises, so the cycle goes on. This is how it works. How amazing!
This is such a fun and educational sun science experiment to enjoy. We learn a lot about the benefits of solar power and how it helps the Earth, and it really sparks our interest in exploring other ways we can use solar energy.

本文主要介绍如何做一个太阳能塔。
1. B 组合式选择题。由第二、三段内容可知，该实验不需要圆形纸片和胶水。
2. C 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Finally, put the can tower on top of the books, which are 5 cm apart from each other. So there's a gap at the bottom, allowing the air to enter the tower.”可知，在这两本书之间留出空是为了让空气进入塔内。
3. D 图片理解题。根据第四段可知，当太阳照在塔上时，它使塔内的空气变暖。温暖的空气通过塔向上移动，使风车转动。然后较冷的空气从塔底部的缝隙进入，被加热，上升，这样循环下去。结合选项图片可知选D。
4. A 词义猜测题。由语境可知，此处表示它确实激发了我们探索利用太阳能量的其他方式的兴趣。lead to与spark意思相近。
5. C 出处推断题。本文主要介绍如何做一个太阳能塔，所以推测可能在科学版块看到这篇文章。

【分析】
1. 第1题是组合式选择题，需定位原文中制作太阳能塔所需的材料，排除原文未提及的物品，再匹配选项得出答案；
2. 第2题是细节理解题，需定位原文中关于两本书间空隙作用的描述，直接对应选项判断；
3. 第3题是图片理解题，需梳理原文中空气流动的循环逻辑，匹配对应图片；
4. 第4题是词义猜测题，需结合最后一段语境，分析“sparks”的含义，匹配同义短语；
5. 第5题是出处推断题，需根据文章核心内容（科学实验介绍）判断报纸版块。
【解析】
1. 第1题：由原文第二段可知，制作太阳能塔需要的材料有胶带、别针、纸、剪刀、三个罐子、两本大小相同的书和晴天，未提及圆形纸片和胶水，因此排除含③的选项，答案为B；
2. 第2题：由原文第三段“there's a gap at the bottom, allowing the air to enter the tower”可知，两本书间留空隙是为了让空气进入塔内，答案为C；
3. 第3题：由原文第四段可知，暖空气向上移动，冷空气从塔底部进入被加热后上升，形成循环，对应选项D的图片，答案为D；
4. 第4题：最后一段“sparks our interest”意为“激发我们的兴趣”，“lead to”可表示“引起、激发”，与“sparks”含义相近，答案为A；
5. 第5题：本文核心是介绍太阳能实验，属于科学内容，因此最可能出现在报纸的科学版块，答案为C。
【答案】
1.B 2.C 3.D 4.A 5.C
【知识点】
阅读理解、细节理解、词义猜测、出处推断
【点评】
本文是一篇介绍太阳能塔实验的说明文，结合新考法（组合式选择、图片理解）考查学生提取文本信息、逻辑推理及词义猜测的能力，需精准定位原文细节，理清实验原理的逻辑关系。
