I. Reading exercises:
Exercise 1. Read and memorize using a dictionary:
harnessing of energy, wind energy, wave power, solar radiation, curvature, windmill, wind turbine, generating capacity, installed capacity, offshore wind farm, to derive electricity, electricity consumption, site, renewables, electricity utility |
Exercise 2. Answer the questions:
What are the indirect manifestations of sun’s power?
Where does the solar radiation warm the atmosphere most?
How long has wind power been in use?
Where are most of wind turbines installed at present?
Exercise 3. Match the left part with the right:
1. Indirect manifestations of sun’s power are |
a) installed on land. |
2. Air-flows from cooler to warmer regions are |
b)bioenergy, hydropower, wind energy and wave power |
3. Most of wind turbines have been |
c) growing very rapidly. |
4. The use of wind turbines for electricity generation has been |
d)harnessed by windmills and wind turbines to produce power. |
The speaking module
II. Speaking exercises:
Exercise 1. Describe indirect harnessing of sun’s radiant energy; winds; wind power; wind turbine; installed generating capacity; electricity utility using the suggested words and expressions as in example:
indirect harnessing of sun’s radiant energy sun’s energy, via, wave power, bioenergy, hydropower, wind energy, principally example Indirect harnessing of sun’s radiant energy can be done via other forms of energy, principally, bioenergy and hydropower, wind energy and wave power |
winds air, motion, earth’s surface, relative, cooler, warmer regions, from. |
wind power derived, from, motion, windmill, wind turbine, energy, through |
wind turbine to convert, electrical energy, into, windmill, advanced type |
installed generating capacity maximum, runoff, electric facility, by, constantly, maintained, utilized, equipment. |
electricity utility facility, generation, electric power, processing |
Exercise 2. Ask questions to the given answers:
Question: ____________________________________________________?
Answer: At the end of 2001 the world total installed wind generating capacity was over 23,000 MW.
Question:_____________________________________________________?
Answer: The wind farm at Carno in mid-Wales is one of the largest in Europe.
Question:_____________________________________________________?
Answer: Denmark derives more than15% of its electricity from wind.
