Project day ENERGY 8 - 9 class1 Non-renewable energy resources
In Europe our way of life still depends on fossil fuels. These were created millions of years ago
from the remains of prehistoric forests. Beneath
the ground, time and pressure slowly turned the trees into vast fields of oil, gas and coal.
However, the world has already used up half these fuels, and in a few decades they will be gone
forever. (1)
2 Renewable energy resources
There are other safe sources of energy that will not run out; energy from the sun, the wind, the water and the
plants. Renewable energy is nothing new. 1. ................ . The resources of renewable energy have not changed, but
the technology definitely has. (1)
Modern wind turbines have become highly efficent and now generate electricity for thousands of homes. And
they do not produce carbon emissions that cause global warming. Wind energy was used to mill flour, and to
transport goods and people around the world on large sailing ships. (1)
Solar energy is also becoming increasingly important. Solar panels use photovoltaics made of special types of
silicon. 2. ................ . Solar thermal energy is used to provide heat and hot water.
Hydro power is a major source of power in many countries. 3. ................. . Water is then accelerated down
steep pipes and used to power turbines that generate electricity. Again, this resource is renewable and doesn't cause
carbon emissions. (1)
The most diverse form of renewable energy is biomass - energy from biological matter. There are many
different sources of biomass, including forestry residues, food wastes, animal wastes and energy crops. Modern
technology convert biomass to solid, liquid and gaseous fuels. This can be used to generate heat and electricity and
as a transport fuel. 4. ................ . It takes time and money, but the fuels of the future could soon be used by lorries,
ships and planes for long journeys. (1)
Four sentences were removed from the text above. You have to choose from the sentences A – E the one which best fits each gap (1 – 4). There is one extra sentence which you don´t need to use!A These convert sunlight into electricity.
B Scientists are developing new ways to make biofuels.
C He saw a cat sitting near the water.
D Dams are used to create reservoirs.
E For centuries, buildings have been designed to capture the heat of the
sun.Date:...................................................... Name, Class:.............................................................
