It's not the flashiest car in the world.Not even close.But the 1971 Volkswagen named Helios can do something most cars can't:nm on solar energy - energy from the sun's light and heat!
Joshua Bechtold,14,and the other students at the Riverside School in Lyndonville,Vermont,worked many months to get Helios ready for the 1999 American Tour de Sol ( "Sol" is the Latin word for "sun").They named their car after Helios,the sun god in Greek mythology(神话).
The 4-year-old Tour de Sol encourages the use of "green",or environmentally friendly,cars to help reduce pollution and save energy.It' s not a race.Cars are judged on fuel efficiency(耗油量) rather than speed.In the week-long event,44 cars took the 350-mile tour from Waterbury,Connecticut,to Lake George,New York.Of the 23 student cars,Helios was the only one built by middle school students.
A teacher drove Helios,but the children talked with people wherever they stopped along the mad."That was my favorite part," says Anna Browne,15."We explained how the car runs.”
Due in part to old,inefficient batteries(电池),Helios finished fourth - out of four - in its kind,the sun-powered class."We were there for the fun of it," Anna says."We're proud of Helios," says Ariel Gleicher,14."It's a car that's good for the environment."
这不是世界上最闪亮(出色)的车.甚至与其相去甚远.但是1971年大众汽车指出Helios(某汽车车型,直译是太阳神)能够做一些别的汽车做不到的事情:(nm……这应该是漏了什么字母吧.估计是能由太阳能驱动)能由太阳能驱动——由太阳产的光和热所产生的能量!
14岁的Joshua Bechtold和其他佛门特州内林顿维尔河畔学校的学生们工作了很多个月,使Helio为1999年的美国太阳之旅("sol"是"太阳"的拉丁文)做准备.他们将他们的车以Helios命名,Helios是希腊神话中的太阳神.
4岁的(第四届)美国太阳之旅鼓励使用“绿色”,或者说保护环境的车来帮助减少污染以及节约能量.这不是一场比赛.汽车们被以耗油量评判而不是以速度.在为时一周的活动中,44辆车行驶了350里的旅程,从康乃迪克州的沃特伯里市到纽约的乔治湖.在23辆学生车中,Helios是唯一一辆由中学生制造的车.
一位老师驾驶了Helios,但是无论停在哪里,孩子们都疯狂地和那里的人们说话.“那是我最喜欢的部分”15岁的Anna Browne(安娜.布朗尼)说,“我们解释车是如何运行的.”
部分由于老旧的低效电池,Helios在同类(太阳能类)的四辆车中名列第四.“我们投身其中是为了快乐.”安娜说.“我们为Helios为荣.”14岁的Ariel Gleicher(艾利尔.格兰奇拉)说道.“这是一辆对环境有益的车.
