阅读短文，选择正确答案。    The world is not only hungry, it will also be thirsty for water. About 97% of water on the earth is sea water,
or salt water. Man can only drink or use the other 3％of the fresh water (淡水) which comes from rivers,
lakes and underground. On the other hand, because the number of people in the world is becoming larger and
larger, more and more fresh water is needed. So water shortage becomes a big problem.
    How can we work out this problem? Scientists have found some ways to turn salt water into fresh water.
One important way is to boil (使达到沸点) sea water with high heat until vapor (蒸汽) rises, leaving the salt. In
this way, a lot of fresh water can be made quickly.
    But heating is not the only way to get fresh water. Other ways are tried, for example, digging (挖) deep wells
(深井), keeping rain water and preventing rivers from being polluted.
    Which way is the best? To get the most fresh water for the least money is the best. 1. Where does the fresh water people need come from? [     ]
A. Sea water.
B. Rivers and lakes.
C. Underground.

阅读理解。     Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and
others often forget to turnoff the lights when they leave the classroom.
     They say they can afford these things. But I don"t agree with them.
     Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of
(缺乏) others, for example, fresh water (淡水). It is reported that we will have no coal (煤) or oil to use
in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we
move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody
should stop wasting as soon as possible.
     In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off
the water taps (水龙头) when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try
not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can
be stopped one day if we do our best. 1. From the passage we know that some students often ______ in the school. [     ]
A. eat too much
B. don"t work hard
C. waste things
D. throw rubbish everywhere 2. Which is not mentioned in this passage? [     ]
A. Fresh water.
B. Forest.
C. Oil.
D. Coal. 3. What may happen in 100 years? [     ]
A. We may still have enough oil.
B. We may still have enough coal.
C. We may have a bottle oil.
D. We may have no coal or oil to use. 4. Which of the following is right? [     ]
A. Waste brings problems.
B. Waste can bring no problem.
C. China is rich in fresh water.
D. Students never waste things. 5. Which is the best title (题目) of this passage? [     ]
