The Text 
Nuclear energy is commonly offered as an alternative to overcome the crisis of energy. The debate whether the use of nuclear energy is an appropriate choice or not, has not come to an end. Some people agree with the utilization of it because of its benefits. Some others, however, disagree because of its risks to the environment.
Nuclear power has many benefits for producing energy from nuclear reactors. Environmentally its impact is very little. The power generated from nuclear power, which is a green energy, does not contribute any emissions to the atmosphere. It is quite different with the fossil fuels that generate greenhouse gasses and poisonous elements which can lead to ozone problems, acid rain, and global warming. Nuclear power is relatively inexpensive compared with other types of energy. Uranium, which is the raw fuel, is less expensive than oil, natural gas, or coal. It lowers electricity costs for consumers. Nuclear power is also a reliable source of power. The nuclear power plants produce large amounts of power on a consistent basis.
However, there are also dangers and risks involved in using nuclear power. The preeminent limitation in using nuclear power is how to dispose or store nuclear waste. Radiation that is leaked from spent rods that lose the ability to produce heat could lead to a dangerous scenario. It takes thousands of years for radiation to be extinguished. The radioactive waste also must be contained to remain safe. Disposal of radioactive waste is a concern as landfills damage the environment. Radiation can be easily spread by winds. It It can contaminate large areas. After a reactor melts it stays in an area for many years and that radioactivity also remains. is dangerous to humans and animals alike.
It is obvious that nuclear energy should be avoided because it really endangers the environment but what about a less polluted energy instead of nuclear energy. Is there any alternative energy to overcome the crisis of energy? In my opinion, nuclear energy is the best choice to overcome the crisis of energy. However, government should make sure that nuclear reactor’s construction and maintains are safe.

8. How is nuclear energy compared to fossil fuel energy?

  • Nuclear power has many benefits for producing energy from nuclear reactors. Environmentally its impact is very little. The power generated from nuclear power, which is a green energy, does not contribute any emissions to the atmosphere.
  • It is quite different with the fossil fuels that generate greenhouse gasses and poisonous elements which can lead to ozone problems, acid rain, and global warming.
  • Nuclear power is relatively inexpensive compared with other types of energy. Uranium, which is the raw fuel, is less expensive than oil, natural gas, or coal.
  • Nuclear energy lowers electricity costs for consumers. Nuclear power is also a reliable source of power. The nuclear power plants produce large amounts of power on a consistent basis.

9. What is the opinion of the writer about the use of nuclear energy?

  • The opinion of the writer describes that nuclear energy is the best choice to overcome the crisis of energy.
  • The writer adds a caveat that government should make sure that nuclear reactor’s construction and maintains are safe.

10. How is to treat the radioactive waste?

The radioactive waste must be treated seriously by team of experts from government and private sectors and it must be contained to remain safe.

Struktur teks

4. Apa masalah teks tersebut?

Isu / masalah teks adalah bahaya energi nuklir.

5. Tentang apa teks tersebut?

Teks tersebut adalah tentang energi nuklir.

6. Mengapa orang setuju menggunakan energi nuklir?

Orang-orang setuju menggunakan energi nuklir karena manfaatnya.

7. Mengapa orang tidak setuju menggunakan energi nuklir?

Orang-orang tidak setuju menggunakan energi nuklir karena risikonya terhadap lingkungan.

8. Bagaimana energi nuklir dibandingkan dengan energi bahan bakar fosil?

  • Tenaga nuklir memiliki banyak manfaat untuk menghasilkan energi dari reaktor nuklir. Dampak lingkungan sangat kecil. Tenaga yang dihasilkan dari tenaga nuklir yang merupakan energi hijau, tidak memberikan kontribusi emisi apapun ke atmosfer.
  • Hal ini sangat berbeda dengan bahan bakar fosil yang menghasilkan gas rumah kaca dan unsur-unsur beracun yang dapat menyebabkan masalah ozon, hujan asam, dan pemanasan global.
  • Tenaga nuklir relatif murah dibandingkan dengan jenis energi lainnya. Uranium, yang merupakan bahan bakar mentah, lebih murah daripada minyak, gas alam, atau batu bara.
  • Energi nuklir menurunkan biaya listrik bagi konsumen. Tenaga nuklir juga merupakan sumber tenaga yang dapat diandalkan. Pembangkit listrik tenaga nuklir menghasilkan sejumlah besar daya secara konsisten.

9. Bagaimana pendapat penulis tentang pemanfaatan energi nuklir?

  • Pendapat penulis menjelaskan bahwa energi nuklir adalah pilihan terbaik untuk mengatasi krisis energi.
  • Penulis menambahkan peringatan bahwa pemerintah harus memastikan bahwa pembangunan dan pemeliharaan reaktor nuklir aman.

10. Bagaimana cara mengolah limbah radioaktif?

Limbah radioaktif harus ditangani secara serius oleh tim ahli dari pemerintah dan swasta dan limbah radioaktif tersebut harus ditampung agar tetap aman.
