CO2 carbon dioxide increase a lot, form a “blanket”, the heat from the sun cant escape cause the level of the sea to rise called “the greenhouse effect” or “globe warming”In our daily life, we should face more environmental problems. Watch and understand(视频(视频P37-1a)Can you choose a suitable title for each paragraph from the phrases below? The earth is 4 600 million years old. We humans have lived on earth for only 35 000 years, but during this period we have changed our planet a lot in many ways. Some things weve done are very good for the earth while some are bad._ All over the world, people have cut down millions of trees. When it rains or when the wind blows, the earth is taken away. Forests have become deserts, so more and more sorts of animals and plants are disappearing.Fewer Trees _ Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air has increased a lot. It mainly comes from burning oil, coal and wood. This has formed a “blanket” around the earth. The heat from the sun cant escape so the temperature is rising. This is called “the greenhouse effect”. It causes the level of the oceans to rise and the climate of the earth to change. All these problems are very serious, so we must do something now.More Carbon Dioxide _ In big cities, cars and buses have polluted the air. Now many people in cities have health problems._Factories have also polluted the land and the water. As a result, many rivers and lakes are now dead._ Around the earth, theres a special kind of oxygen called “ozone”(O3). It is important to the earth. But now air pollution is destroying it and that has made a very big hole in the ozone layer. Too much harmful radiation from the sun passes through the hole and reaches the earth directly. This is very dangerous because this kind of radiation can cause cancer. Traffic PollutionFactory Pollution The Ozone Layer Ozone is very important to the earth.O3:Discuss the meanings of the following expressions and then write down how they affect the environment.A special kind of oxygen called “ozone”The ozone layer can prevent the suns harmful radiation from reaching the earth. But now air pollution is destroying the ozone layer. This is very dangerous because this kind of radiation can cause cancer. CO2:the greenhouse effect: More and more carbon dioxide forms a “blanket” around the earth.Written workDiscuss the meanings of the following expressions and then write down how they affect the environment.Carbon dioxide. It mainly comes from burning oil, coal and wood. Carbon dioxide around the earth makes the temperature rise. The heat from the sun cant escape so the temperature is rising. It causes the level of the oceans to rise and the climate of the earth to change.Read 1a again and choose the correct answers.1、What does our planet mean here? A. The sun. B. Mars. C. The moon. D.
