　　托福阅读句子简化题：Electricity from Wind

　　【Paragraph 5】Large wind farms might also interfere with the flight patterns of migratory birds in certain areas, and they have killed large birds of prey (especially hawks, falcons, and eagles) that prefer to hunt along the same ridge lines　that are ideal for wind turbines. The killing of birds of prey by wind turbines has pitted environmentalists who champion　wildlife protection against environmentalists who promote renewable wind energy. Researchers are evaluating how　serious this problem is and hope to find ways to eliminate or sharply reduce this problem. Some analysts also contend　that the number of birds killed by wind turbines is dwarfed by birds killed by other human-related sources and by the　potential loss of entire bird species from possible global warming. Recorded deaths of birds of prey and other birds in　wind farms in the United States currently amount to no more than 300 per year. By contrast, in the United States an　estimated 97 million birds are killed each year when they collide with buildings made of plate glass, 57 million are killed　on highways each year; at least 3.8 million die annually from pollution and poisoning; and millions of birds are　electrocuted each year by transmission and distribution lines carrying power produced by nuclear and coal power plants.　(Electricity from Wind)
