Opaque materials absorb all the light that shines on them.  None of it comes out the other side.  That's why they're opaque.

Opaque materials become warmer when light shines on them, because they absorb the energy carried by the light that shines on them.  (According to the law of Conservation of Energy, that energy has gotta go somewhere.)
