Metals pass heat along very well, so they are good conductors, while wood and plastic pass heat badly.
Who acts: Metals, wood · What happens: pass, be · To what, where: heat, good conductors
This is a sentence of the lesson «Heat moves: hot to cold» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Metals, wood), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
