A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts (干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference，too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but theres a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.1. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A. Using river water. B. Throwing batteries away.C. Paving parking lots. D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.2. What can be inferred from the text?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.3. The last paragraph is intended to_.A. show us how to fix leaks at home B. tell us how to run a dishwasher C. prove what drinking glass is best for us D. suggest what we do to save water at home 4. The text is mainly about_.A. why paving roads reduces our water B. how much we depend on water to live C. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. how human activity affects our water supply答案与解析这是一篇议论文。主要讲述了人类活动对水资源的影响和如何节约用水。1C细节理解题。从第一段的最后一句可知：我们修的路和停车场越多，流入地下的水就会越少。故选C项(铺砌停车场)。2B推理判断题。第三段的第二句提到了一个美国家庭一天就用1.5吨水；最后一句又提到“我们可以做很多事来减少这个用水量”，从这里可以推断出B项正确。根据第二段首句“Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺)”可排除A项。C项中的 family size 指的是家庭规模，即人口的多少，不是用水量。根据第三段最后一句“This shows how much we depend on water to live, but theres a lot we can do to lower the number.”可知D项不正确。3D目的意图题。最后一段的第一句是作者表达的意图在家里你可以采取措施节约用水。故选D项。4D主旨大意题。第一段的第一句就是主题所在：用水过多或者把垃圾扔进河里，就是这样的人类行为使水资源匮乏，但也以一些隐形的方式影响到我们的用水供应。后面的篇幅主要是围绕人类如何影响水资源展开的。故选D项。.阅读填句Are you a saver or a spender?_1_ This old saying calls attention to the wisdom of saving money. “Putting money away for a rainy day” is another way to talk about saving for the future.People who hate to spend money are known as “tightwads”， while those who like to get the most value for their money are called “thrifty”. _2_ A spendthrift is someone who spends wastefully. People like that are often said to spend money “like a drunken sailor” or “like theres no tomorrow”In the United States, people who want to start a savings account have different choices of where to put their money. _3_ Credit unions are cooperatives for people who have some kind of connection. For example, the members might work for a university or a government agency. Most credit unions are nonprofit organizations.Credit unions, banks and other financial institutions pay interest on savings accounts. But the interest rates are low. Certificates of deposit (存款) pay higher returns. With a certificate of deposit, a person agrees not to withdraw the money for a certain period of time. This term could be anywhere from a few months to several years. _4_ People can withdraw their money early, but they have to pay a penalty (罚金) .In a number of countries, people have been saving less over the years. It is reported that in 2000, Americans had a household savings rate of 7%. _5_ Many European countries have higher rates, but Americans save more than families in Japan.A. People are willing to save money for the future.B. A penny saved is a penny earned.C. Before gold, even kings take off their hats.D. These include banks and credit unions.E. Longer terms and larger amounts pay higher interest.F. A thrifty person is different from a spendthrift.G. This year the rate is expected to be a little more than 2%.答案15BFDEG.语法填空Last weekend, as I was riding in the bike lane alongside the truck, we reached a crossing and it turned to the right, _1_ (hit) me and my bicycle.
