(A)
Do you remember the big flood(洪水)in 1999? Our country suffered a lot and some people lost their lives in that flood. There are many floods here and there each year in our country. In summer it rains a lot, the rain water runs everywhere because there are not enough reservoirs to hold water and the drainage (排水系统) is bad. In cities, streets flood. Water goes into houses, shops, factories and schools. In the country, fields are filled with water. Some houses fall down because they are badly made. In a word, people and property（财产）are in great danger when the flood comes.
We met the biggest flood in 1999 in the latest one hundred years. Many villages, towns and cities were flooded. A large number of soldiers were sent to help stop flood from spilling out of the banks of big rivers. They carried many bags of sand onto the banks and even stood in the water to stop the water when they were short of bags. They were also busy saving people trapped in the water. Sometimes they faced danger, but they were brave enough to put the interest (利益))of the people before everything, including their own lives. Several soldiers lost their young lives during the fighting against the flood.
The cause for the flood is that more trees have been cut down, and earth is washed away the rainwater. Some people do not realize the importance of keeping the balance of water and earth. When it rains heavily, much rainwater cannot be kept. Something must be done to stop such things from happening.
56. A reservoir is a place where _______.
A. water is kept
B. people keep fish
C. people row boats
D. people swim
57. In cities streets flood because ____.
A. streets are too low
B. there is much water
C. houses are badly built
D. the drainage is not good
58. Why were so many soldiers sent to the places which were flooded?
A. They helped to fight against the flood.
B. They wanted to save the houses.
C. They helped to plant trees.
D. They wanted to build a reservoir.
59. When there is a big flood, _____.
A. all the houses fall down.
B. many soldiers lose their lives.
C. no farmers are killed.
D. people suffer a lot.
60. ______, there may be big floods.
A. If so many trees are planted.
B. If too many trees are cut down.
C. If there are small reservoirs.
D. If so many people live in the country.

The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.
Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in pollution at the same time.
73. _______, our world is becoming much smaller.
A. Because of the rise in pollution
B. Thanks to science development
C. Because the earth is being polluted day and night
D. Because the earth is blown away by the wind every year
74. Pollution comes in many ways. We can even hear it. Here “it” means _______.
