People often say that the earth is like our mother. She gives life to all the living things on the earth and provides us with air, food, water and other essential things we need for living.
Once she was beautiful and rich, but now she becomes dirtier and dirtier, poorer and poorer. It is due to what we have done to her. Please have a good look at her: polluted rivers and lakes, growing deserts, the destruction of the forests and wild life, and the depletion (消耗,用尽) of the ozone layer (臭氧层)...
Can she bear to see her children putting the waste here and there? Can she bear to see her children cutting down the trees and destroying the grassland, to see the acid rain destroying everything? Can we bear to see our mother suffering (受苦) so much? Isn’t it time for us to ask ourselves whether this is the way to treat our mother?
Floods, droughts, acid rain..., these are the punishments (惩罚) from nature. Everyone should know that there is only one earth. If we go on treating her like this, it won’t be fit for us to live in any longer. It’s time for us to love her, take good care of her and cure her. We should save the earth so as to save ourselves.
【小题1】 What does the earth look like now?
A.It has clean rivers, lakes and green forests.

C.It is more beautiful and richer.
D.It is dirtier and dirtier, poorer and poorer.
【小题2】 What is the meaning of the underlined word?
A.KnowB.StandC.ImagineD.Hear

The world is not only hungry but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth’s surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% of fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground and so on. And we can not even use all of that because some of it has been made dirty.
Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember how important water is. The water that we use is the most important natural resource on the earth. Today we face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too.
How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First they pollute the air. Then when it rains, the rain water makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to stop wasting 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 goes underground.
But even though every large city reused its water, we would still not have enough. So we should make use of sea water by removing the salt in it. If we can take these steps, fresh water won’t be used up.
【小题1】The world is thirsty for water because _______.
A.we don’t have enough fresh waterB.a lot of water goes into sewer systems
C.only 70% of the earth’s surface is waterD.sea water is widely used rather than fresh water
【小题2】From this passage, we know acid rain _______.
A.is only bad for living thingsB.is not bad for buildings and factories
C.can be produced in factoriesD.is bad for people, animals, plants and buildings
【小题3】One difficult way we can solve the problem is to _______.
A.use the water with salt in itB.remove the salt from sea water
C.get water from undergroundD.reuse the water in cities
【小题4】What is the best title for this passage?
A.Fresh water and sea waterB.A thirsty country
C.The importance of waterD.The world’s water problem
