The world is not hungry，but it’s thirsty.   1  while we say we are short of water.Why？Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can‘t drink or use for watering plants directly.Man can only drink and use the 3% of water that comes from rivers and lakes.   2  ，because some of it has been polluted.
　　Now more water is needed.The problem is how we can avoid a serious water shortage in the future.  3 Scientists are making study in this field.Today，In most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers.but it can be used again.Even if every large city reused its water，the water will still not be enough. 4 .
　　The sea seems to give us the best answer.There is a lot of water in the sea.All that needs to be get the salt out of the sea water.This will be expensive，but it has already been used in many parts of the world.   6 So you see，if we can find out a way，we’ll be in no danger of drying up.
從方框中所給的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項，補全短文。其中有一項為多余選項。
A．Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it.
B．It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water.
C．What could people do next?
D．We should use all the water directly.
E. First, we should find out ways to reuse it.
F. And we can’t even use all of that.

小題1:B

小題2:上文提到地球上大部分水不能直接使用，故選F，我們甚至不能全部利用他們。下文解釋這種問題的原因。
小題3:根據(jù)上文The problem is how we can avoid a serious water shortage in the future.我們怎樣才能避免在將來發(fā)生嚴重的水資源短缺問題，結(jié)合下文有些水可以重復利用，可知選E，首先我們應該找出重新利用他的方法。
小題4:結(jié)合上文出現(xiàn)的序數(shù)詞first，以及下文介紹的利用海水，可知選C，可起到承上啟下的作用。
小題5:上文提到了利用海水的方法，但比較代價高，結(jié)合下文如果我們能找到一種方法，可知選項處為假設的前提，故選A。。

Do you often feel weak or tired when you get up in the morning? Do you often wake up with a headache? Well, if the answer is yes, take Dr. Talbot’s advice (建議) and start feeling better.
Get up and move. If you hate feeling tired and unhappy, you should start exercising. Try running, swimming or cycling. When we exercise, our body produces special chemicals(化學產(chǎn)品) that give us energy and make us feel happier. If you dislike exercising, listen to your favourite music and dance to it. That’s exercise, too.
Eat healthily. You should eat three balanced meals every day and you shouldn’t eat too much fast food. If you need some more extra energy the whole day, make an energy drink. Mix together fresh fruit juice and low-fat milk. It tastes great.
Get out close to the open air. The smell of flowers will make you feel happy. Even the smell of your favourite food can change the way you feel!
Wake your body up. When you have a shower, change the water from hot to cold and back to hot again. You’ll feel the difference.
Laugh! You should laugh for, at least, three minutes, three times a day. It will make you feel great!

Bamboo is a giant grass that grows in warm places. It has many uses. Everything—from chairs and fishing rods to basket and paper can be made from it. And that’s not all. It can be eaten, too. People in China like bamboo shoots very much. They think the bamboo shoots are a delicious vegetable for parties and meals.
In many parts of Asia, bamboo shoots are a favorite food. The winter shoots are the best because they are soft, with a white and green color. Usually they are boiled in water with some salt. Spring shoots are darker and harder, so they take longer to cook. But they are cheaper than winter shoots.
Fresh bamboo shoots are seldom found outside bamboos’ hometown. But people in other places can buy bamboo shoots, too. These shoots are kept in bottles and cans. They need no cooking and are almost as good as fresh bamboo shoots.

There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world. But only a few of them are very important. English is one of them. Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but also in other parts of the world. About 200,000,000 people speak it as their own language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a foreign language. Many millions of people are trying to do so. Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever noticed ads(廣告) of this kind in the newspapers or magazines? “Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back…” “Easy and funny…” “Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”. Of course, it never happened quite like that.
The only language that seems easy to learn is the mother tongue. We should remember that we all learned our own language well when we were children. If we could learn English in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries what he hears.
So it is hard to say that learning English is easy. We must do a lot of practice. And practice needs great efforts and takes much time. Good teachers, record, tapes, books, and dictionaries will be helpful, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.
小題1:How many languages are very important in the world?
A．A fewB．FewC．About 1500D．Many
小題2:If we want to learn English well, what shall we do?
A．We should study it without any help.
B．We must do a lot of practice.
C．We need to get much money back.
D．We must live in England or America.
小題3:How does the writer like the ads in the newspapers or magazines?
A．He thinks the ads very expensive.
B．He thinks the ads are true.
C．It never happened quite like what the ads said.
D．He believes” Learn English in six weeks, or give your money back”.
小題4:Which language is easy to learn?
A．EnglishB．Chinese
C．JapaneseD．The mother language
小題5:Which countries use English as the mother tongue?
A．China and FranceB．Japan and Italy

How do you remember the way to your house? Where do dreams come from?
It is your brain (大腦) that does these things. A British scientist showed that sleep can improve one’s memory. It’s not a dream for students to study when they sleep. In fact, your brain is working day and night. If you learn words before bed, a certain part of your brain may help you to remember the words while you sleep. What’s more, another scientist in the USA found that there was a “talent button(按鈕)” in the human brain. It might make a person more talented(有才能的).
There are more interesting things about the brain. Your brain uses less energy than a fridge light. Just two bananas can give the brain enough energy to work for a whole day. According to some scientists, yawning（打哈欠）keeps your brain “cool”, which makes us think quicker.
Here are some pieces of advice to keep a good brain:
● Eat healthy food.
● Get a lot of playtime or exercise.
● Don’t drink or smoke.
● Use your brain a lot.
小題1:A British scientist found out that               .
A．drinking could affect our memories.
B．dreams could affect our memories.
C．sleep could improve our memories.
D．bananas could improve our memories.
小題2:According to the passage, if we want to have a good brain, we should  .
A．use our brains more
B．sleep fewer hours
C．work longer hours
D．remember fewer things
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．Our brains only work in the daytime.
B．Our brains need much energy every day.
C．Smoking can keep our brains healthy.
D．Getting exercise is good for our brains.
