I. Reading exercises:
Exercise 1. Read and memorize using a dictionary:
wave power, oscillating water column, chamber, air turbine, non-solar, tide, tidal plant, coastline, gravitational pull, dam, barrage, estuary, inlet, sea level, capacity, power plant, electricity demand, wildlife, underwater turbine, tidal/oceanic current |
Exercise 2. Answer the questions:
In what way are waves caused?
Which is the most widely used technology for harnessing the power of waves?
What is the major cause of regular rise and fall of tides around the coastline?
What country has the largest tidal energy scheme?
Exercise 3. Match the left part with the right:
1. Ocean waves are caused |
a) the oscillating water column |
2. Tides are caused |
b) by the winds blowing over the world’s oceans |
3. Wave energy technology involves |
c) by the gravitational pull of the moon on the world’s oceans |
4. Tidal energy technology involves |
d) a low dam built across the estuary of a river |
The speaking module
II. Speaking exercises:
Exercise 1. Describe water column, tidal current, estuary, electricity demand, wildlife, prototype using the suggested words and expressions as in example:
water column tubular, column, locate, steam, water, space, boiler, protective, devices, attach example: A water column is a tubular column located at the steam and water space of a boiler to which protective devices (such as gage cocks, water gage, and level alarms) are attached |
tidal current alternating, horizontal, movement, water, rise, fall, tide, caused, astronomical, tide- producing, forces |
estuary semi-enclosed, coastal, body, water, free, connection, open, sea, water, measurably, diluted, fresh, water |
electricity demand ratio, maximum, demand, building, electric, power, total, connected, load |
wildlife wild, animals, plants, collectively |
prototype model suitable for use in complete evaluation of form, design, and performance |
Exercise 2. Ask questions to the given answers:
Question:_____________________________________________________?
Answer: There are two renewable sources, tidal and geothermal energy, that do not depend on solar radiation.
Question:_____________________________________________________?
Answer: There are a few other, smaller, tidal plants in various countries, including Canada, Russia and China.
Question: _____________________________________________________?
Answer: Another, newer tidal energy technology involves the use of underwater turbines to harness the strong tidal and oceanic currents that flow in certain coastal regions.
