替代 ［复记强化］ ［难句理解］Those who disagree with the rapid expansion of wind farms state that the damage they cause is out of proportion (比例) to the benefits they bring, because their energy output cannot match that of the carbon-based power stations they are supposed to replace. 结构分析：who引导一个定语从句，state后面的that引导一个宾语从句，而宾语从句中又含有一个定语从句(they cause)和由because引导的原因状语从句。 汉语大意：那些不同意快速扩张风车农场的人说风车农场造成的损失与获得的收益不成比例，这是因为风车农场的能源产量与应该被替代的电站的产量不能匹配。
