The greening of planes, trains and automobiles
Moving goods and people around the world is responsible for a large part of global CO2 emissions (排放). As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation — which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Here’s the breakdown of the emissions in 2018 for different modes of transport.
【语法讲解】
As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation — which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions.
①“As the world races to decarbonize everything”为由“as”引导的时间状语从句。其结构为:As + 主语 + 谓语,表示“当……时候”、“随着”,常用于描述趋势、变化,是高考书面表达高频连接词。
②“which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions”为由“which”引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词为“transportation”。非限制性定语从句起补充说明作用,逗号/破折号后常用which,不能用that。
*注意:
区别 | 限制性定语从句 | 非限制性定语从句 |
形式上 | 不用逗号与主句隔开 | 用逗号和主句隔开 |
意义上 | 是先行词不可或缺的定语,如删除,主句则失去意义或意思表达不完整 | 只是对先行词的补充说明,如删除,主句仍能表达完整的意思 |
译法上 | “……的” | 通常翻译成主句的并列句 |

The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around. Each mode of transport has its specific fuel needs. Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
【语法讲解】
The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around.
此处not just...but also... 为并列结构,整体为简单句,功能相当于and。
Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
该句由but连接的并列句,前一分句使用了be to do结构表示 “某事有待被做”,后一分句为here开头的倒装句,正常语序为some of the solutions are here,不定式to get us going green作后置定语修饰 solutions。
【好词好句】

This energy transition (变革) is global and the amount of renewable energy the world will need is “a little bit mind-blowing,” says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. It’s estimated that the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050. Fortunately, analyses suggest that renewables are up to the task. “We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used,” says Wipke.
【语法讲解】
This energy transition is global andthe amount of renewable energy the world will needis “a little bit mind-blowing,”says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
本句包含两个并列分句,由and 连接;第二个并列分句中嵌套定语从句 “the world will need”,修饰先行词 “renewable energy”,从句中 will need 为一般将来时,表示 “未来将会需要”;同时本句包含直接引语,引号内为人物观点,引号外为引语的归属,是直接引语,也是书面表达常考的句式结构。
It’s estimated thatthe global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050.
本句为主语从句,核心结构是“It’s estimated that...”(据估计……),其中 it 为形式主语,真正的主语是 that 引导的从句 “the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050”;could 为情态动词,表推测,语气比 can 更委婉,是情态动词表推测的考点;“more than double” 为固定表达,表 “超过两倍”,是书面表达中的高分短语。
Fortunately, analyses suggest thatrenewables are up to the task.
语法讲解:本句包含宾语从句“that renewables are up to the task”,that 在从句中不充当成分,仅起连接作用,可省略;suggest在此处为“表明、显示”之意,后接宾语从句,是书面表达中常用的衔接句式,up to the task为固定短语,也是高频考点。
“We need to speed up the development of green energy,andit will all get used,”says Wipke.
本句为直接引语结构,引语部分包含and 连接的两个并列分句;“speed up” 为固定短语,表 “加快、加速”,“the development of” 为常用名词短语,是书面表达中提升文采的常用搭配;get used 在此处为被动含义,表 “被使用”,是被动语态的考点。
