能源需求增長
The global demand for nuclear energy will likely be on the rise soon, according to WWS Swiss Financial Consulting SA.
根據WWS瑞士財務顧問有限公司的預測，全球對核能的需求可能很快就會上升。
demand(n.)需求、要求on the rise上升中=on the increase
As a result, the price of uranium — which is an important fuel used in producing nuclear power — is also expected to increase.
因此用於產生核能的重要燃料——鈾的價格預計也將上漲。
fuel(n.)燃料、刺激性的言行fossil fuel化石燃料surge(v.)飆升=skyrocket、soar
In the years to come, nuclear energy is set to become more popular.
在未來幾年，核能將變得更加普及。
set(adj.)預計的、準備好的=poised
One of the main reasons for this is that more consumers will be buying electric vehicles, so more EV batteries will need to be charged.
其中一個主要原因是，更多消費者將購買電動車，因此需要為更多的電動車電池充電。
electric vehicle電動車charge(v.)充電=rechargerecharge one’s batteries養精蓄銳
At the same time, green energy is replacing power produced from gas, oil and coal.
同時，綠色能源正在取代以天然氣、石油和煤炭發電。
at the same time同時=meanwhilecoal(n.)煤炭rake someone over the coals嚴厲斥責某人
However, producing energy from the wind and the sun is not as reliable as getting it from fossil fuels.
然而，從風力和太陽能獲取能源並不像從化石燃料中獲取能源那樣可靠。
solar energy太陽能reliable(adj.)可靠的=dependable
Therefore, nuclear power will need to pick up the slack, especially because the process does not produce air pollution or carbon dioxide.
因此，核能將需要填補這一空缺，尤其是因為產生核電的過程中不會產生空氣污染或二氧化碳。
pick up the slack填補不足之處、接替中斷的工作cut someone some slack對某人網開一面process(n.)過程pollution(n.)污染=contamination
In fact, many locations around the world have already announced plans to build new nuclear power plants to help meet growing energy demand.
事實上，世界各地已經宣布興建新的核能發電廠的計劃，以滿足日益增長的能源需求。
in fact事實上=in reality=actuallynuclear power plant核能發電廠meet the demand符合需求
With some of the world’s largest uranium producers located in Russia and Kazakhstan, from which the US limits imports, more global suppliers will soon be needed.
由於俄羅斯和哈薩克等世界上最大的鈾生產國受到美國的進口限制，因此很快將需要更多的全球供應商。
limit(v.)限制、限量=restrictimport(n.)(v.)進口export(n.)(v.)出口
For investors, this could present some good opportunities to gain profits, like investing in the US company UEC, the Canadian producer Camco, or special organizations that buy and hold uranium until the price increases.
對於投資者來說，這可能會帶來一些獲利的好機會，例如投資美國公司UEC、加拿大的生產商Camco，或是專門買入並持有鈾直到價格上漲的特殊機構。
investor(n.)投資者present(v.)產生profit(n.)利潤profitable(adj.)有利潤的invest(v.)投資hold on to保住～
