1、Unit 4 Global warmingReadingPre-reading1.Have you ever seen a greenhouse?is made of glass used for growing plants,especially during cold weather.2.How does the greenhouse work?The air inside was warm because the glass traps(挡住挡住,吸收吸收)the heat from the sun and keeps it from escaping(逃跑逃跑).This makes
2、the greenhouse heat up(热量热量上升上升)and so the plants can grow throughout(在在期间期间)the cold period.4.Greenhouse EffectGlobal warmingGreenhouse gases trapped the heat from the sun,which causes the temperature of earth goes up.THE EARTH IS BECOMING WARMER BUT DOES IT MATTER?Reading 1)How many paragraphs doe
