This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70 percent（百分比）of the earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97 percent of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3 percent － the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources（资源）. And we cannot even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers（冰川）. Even worse, some of it has been polluted. However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing（增加）rapidly－almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid（避免）a severe（严重 的）worldwide water shortage later on. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system（下水道）. From there it returns to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks. But it is possible to pipe used water to a purifying（净化）plant. There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as if it were fresh from a spring. But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we’d have to do to make use of the vast reserves（贮备）of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we’ll be in no danger of drying up. 1. The world is thirsty for water because we can only use _________ percent of the water covering the surface of the earth. A. 3 B. more than 3 C. less than 3 D. 97 2. Which of the following statements is Not true? A. As things remain unchanging, this small amount of fresh water is still enough for us. B. Our need for water is becoming larger and larger. C. There will be no water shortage in the future. D. We should take steps to deal with the water shortage problem. 3. To reuse water, we should __________. A. treat it with chemicals B. use it only once C. send it out into a sewer system D. make it flow into underground tanks 4. In order to have enough water, we should also make use of _________. A. icebergs and glaciers B. sea water C. rivers and lake D. underground water 5. In the passage, the writer tells us ________. A. to make enough water B. to pay more attention to the water shortage problem C. to pipe used water to a purifying plant D. to reuse the water B The United States has many different kinds of climates（气候）. On the northwest coast（海岸）, the temperature changes very little between summer and winter, but the north central（中部的）states have a very different kind of climate. In those states, people wear light clothes in summer, and they need heavy woolen clothes in winter. In the southwest coast, the climate is rainy and warm during the winter, but the summer is dry and hot. In the northeast of the United States, summer temperatures are very different from winter temperatures. Summer is usually hot, and winter is usually cold. Spring temperatures are warm, and fall temperatures are cool. Years ago, people in the cold parts of the United States didn’ t often get fresh （新鲜的）vegetables and fresh fruits during the summer. Today, however（然而）， trucks and trains carry fruits and vegetables very quickly to all parts of the United States. In this way, Americans “send their climates” to people in other states. 1. The summer and winter temperatures are almost the same _________. A. in the northeastern states B. on the north central states C. in the western states D. on the northwest coast 2. The word“fall”in this passage means ________. A. drop B. down C. autumn D. spring 3. Today people ___________ can get fresh vegetables and fruits. A. in the north central states B. in every part of the U.S.A. C. in the cold parts of the U.S.A. D. in the southwest part of the U.S.A. 4. From this passage we know that the climate of the United States _________. A. is always very cold B. is warm in winter C. is widely different D. changes very little between summer and winter 5. From Paragraph 2 we know that the climate of the southwest coast is ________. A. Maritime（海洋性）climate B. Savanna（热带草原）climate C. Mediterranean（地中海）climate D. Tropical rainforest（热带雨林）climate C The Inventions Paper was first made in the year 105. It was made by a Chinese named Cai Lun. For over 500 years paper was made only in China. People in Japan learned of paper around the year 600. As years went by, people in other places began to make paper. The lead（铅）pencil is not made of lead. It is made of graphite（石墨）. People found graphite in 1564. They thought it was a kind of lead. Today we still call pencils “lead pencils”. The first pencils were made by putting strings（线）around sticks of graphite. The first wooden pencils were made by Kasper Faber in Germany in 1761. Erasers（橡皮）like those we use today were first made in France by a man named Magellan in 1752. It was Hyman L. Lipman who first put eraser on the ends of pencils. And that is how the pencils came to be. 1. How many years earlier was paper made in China than in Japan? A. About 100 years. B. About 400 years. C.
