Directions: Identify and label the action verbs and direct objects. Example: Nonetheless, airports created problems for some persons. verb = created direct object = problems 1. The pilot started the airplane. 2. Wilbur and Orville Wright built the first successful airplane. 3. They built their machine in Ohio. 4. They took it to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, for its first flight. 5. Orville Wright flew the first airplane on December 17, 1903. 6. The winds at Kitty Hawk blew steadily that day. 7. The twelve-horsepower engine sputtered. 8. Soon it lifted the 750-pound plane into the air for a flight of 120 feet. 9. Orville's brother, Wilbur, ran alongside. 10.

3one of the biggest impacts a building has on earth is the energy it uses. currently, most of the world’s energy comes from burning fossil fuels. these fuels are dirty and when they are burned they pollute the air and water. one way to burn fewer fossil fuels is to reduce the amount of electricity a building has to use. passive solar heating, which uses heat from the sun, reduces the amount of fossil fuel used to heat buildings. passive solar heating requires a south-facing wall made of glass. when sunlight shines through the wall, it is collected and used to warm the building. another way green buildings reduce their electricity use is to install other energy sources. for example, some green buildings use panels that turn energy from the sun into useable electricity. which is the best summary of paragraph 3? a) fossil fuels are dirty and pollute the air and water. most of the world's energy comes from these fuels. b) the biggest problem of buildings is that they use fuel that is dirty for heating. they need to do something to be more energy efficient. c) panels that turn energy from the sun into electricity and passive solar heating can stop the burning of fossil fuels which pollute air and water. d) since fossil fuels are dirty and pollute the air and water, other technologies that pollute less and produce energy have been developed like solar energy and green buildings.
