Module 12 补充阅读理解材料 Zero Pollution Flights 课件+阅读原文及试题学案 2025-2026学年外研版（2012）英语九年级上册

Zero pollution flights. Air travel is now a big part of our lives. Every day, planes take off and land all over the world, helping us get to far away places quickly. But behind the fun and convenience of flying, there is a serious problem playing pollution. Airplanes run on fuel made from oil. When they fly, they burn this fuel, releasing bad gases like carbon dioxide into the air. These gases keep the heat from the sun in the air, stopping IT from going out into space. This makes the earth warmer. As the world gets harder, people are likely to see more bad weather events happen, like floods, drought and wildfires. Plain pollution is growing faster than other kinds of travel pollution every year. Lots of people take planes. If this keeps up, plain pollution might break records and make global warming even worse. But there is good news. Scientists are developing cleaner planes. Airbus, a big airplane company in europe, is building a plane called zero e IT runs on Green hydrogen instead of oil, so IT makes almost no bad gases. The plane will use hydrogen fuel to create electricity, and this will make the plane go. China is also doing great work in this area. Chinese scientists have made the first model of a hydrogen powered plane. IT uses the same clean energy ideas, which helps cut down pollution a lot. Making planes that use hydrogen en isn't easy. IT means having to design the plane in a new way, but many scientists are working hard on this. Airbus hopes to fly its first hydrogen plane by twenty thirty five. In the near future, we might see many clean hydrogen powered planes flying. Let's look forward to a Greener sky. Module 12 补充阅读理解练习 Warming up Q1: Do you often travel by plane? Q2: Do you know where airplane fuel comes from? Zero-Pollution Flights From the title, we can know the passage is about ______________________________________. environment-friendly planes Fast reading Zero-Pollution Flights Air travel is now a big part of our lives. Every day, planes take off and land all over the world, helping us get to faraway places quickly. But behind the fun and convenience of flying, there’s a serious problem: plane pollution. Airplanes run on fuel made from oil. When they fly, they burn this fuel, releasing bad gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air. These gases keep the heat from the sun in the air, stopping it from going out into space. This makes the Earth warmer. As the world gets hotter, people are likely to see more bad weather events happen like floods, droughts, and wildfires. Plane pollution is growing faster than other kinds of travel pollution. Every year, lots of people take planes. If this keeps up, plane pollution might break records and make global warming even worse. But there’s good news! Scientists are developing cleaner planes. Airbus, a big airplane company in Europe, is building a plane called ZEROe. It runs on green hydrogen instead of oil, so it makes almost no bad gases!

Careful reading 1 But表转折，冒号后面明确引出文章要讨论的核心问题“plane pollution”。 Air travel is now a big part of our lives. Every day, planes take off and land all over the world, helping us get to faraway places quickly. But behind the fun and convenience of flying, there’s a serious problem: plane pollution. 铺垫背景，指出“航空与生活紧密相关”。 2 解释污染成因和具体危害。 总结前文因果链，得出“污染导致全球变暖”的结论。 Airplanes run on fuel made from oil. When they fly, they burn this fuel, releasing bad gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) into the air. These gases keep the heat from the sun in the air, stopping it from going out into space. This makes the Earth warmer. As the world gets hotter, people are likely to see more bad weather events happen like floods, droughts, and wildfires. Plane pollution is growing faster than other kinds of travel pollution. Every year, lots of people take planes. If this keeps up, plane pollution might break records and make global warming even worse. 3 承接上句“全球变暖”，进一步说明变暖带来的“具体危害”，让问题更具象。 通过“假设 + 后果”的句式，突出问题的“未来风险”，呼吁重视。 But there’s good news! Scientists are developing cleaner planes. Airbus, a big airplane company in Europe, is building a plane called ZEROe. It runs on green hydrogen instead of oil, so it makes almost no bad gases! The plane will use hydrogen fuel to create electricity, and this will make the plane go. 4 进一步解释ZEROe飞机的“清洁原理”——能源替代→零污染，便于读者理解。 关键转折，从“强调问题”过渡到“提供解决方案”，改变文章基调。 China is also doing great work in this area. Chinese scientists have made the first model of a hydrogen-powered plane. It uses the same clean energy ideas, which helps cut down pollution a lot. 5 作为前文欧洲案例的补充，指出中国案例和成果，体现 “全球共同研发”的趋势。 Q: What kind of energy does the plane use? A: It uses hydrogen. Making planes that use hydrogen isn’t easy. It means having to design the plane in a new way. But many scientists are working hard on this. Airbus hopes to fly its first hydrogen plane by 2035. In the near future, we might see many clean, hydrogen-powered planes flying. Let’s look forward to a greener sky! 6 结尾以积极呼吁收尾，升华主题，引发读者共鸣。 直白表达“存在困难”，承认现实挑战，让后文“展望” 更可信，避免盲目乐观。 Post reading Choose the best answer. B ( )1. What is the main problem talked about in the passage?
