Renewable?The Oil refineries in which oil is refined and made pure. A nuclear power plant, non-renewable.What? Renewable?A nuclear power plant is designed to change nuclear energy into electricity. Solar panels, renewable.What? Renewable?Solar panels are used to collect solar energy, making electricity or your house warm or heating your water, etc.A hydro-electric dam(水电站), renewable.What? Renewable?The hydro-electric dams are used to keep back water and raise its level for irrigation or for producing electricity, etc.What source of energy?Geysers(间歇泉)What about the weather?
9℃ / 14℃We need…The sun. How about the plants?What are these buildings made of and what is their purpose?
They are made of glass which traps the heat from the sun, making the air warm so that plants can grow better.The earth is trapped in the greenhouse and becoming warmer and warmer How has this come about and does it matter?During the 20th century the temperature of the earth rose about one degree Fahrenheit.Sophie ArmstrongShe works for Earth Care.
She is exploring these questions and writing a magazine article.

It was yesterday evening that my father did the experiment in the lab.原句:My father did the experiment in the lab yesterday evening.主语宾语地点状语时间状语强调宾语:强调时间状语: It was in the lab that my father did the experiment yesterday evening.

1) It was last night ____ I saw the film Star Wars.
A.who B.when
C.that D.which答案C 强调句的结构是:It + be + 强调部分 + that (who) +主谓句。强调句的连词只有两个,that和who。当强调的部分是人,且为句子的主语时,才用who,其余用that。2) It is ten years ____ Miss Green returned to Canada.
A.that B.when
C.since D.as
答案 C考点是连词用法。本题易误选为A 其实本句不是强调句。 若是去掉It be…that还应是一个完整的句子。而本句去掉‘It is…that, 只剩下ten years Miss Green returned to Canada 不成句。因此本句不是强调句。It is + 时间+since...,其中 is = has been.1. It was this village ___ I was bought.
