Earth is often called the Blue Planet. That’s because about three-fourths of the earth is covered by water. People think we are not short of water. In fact, they are wrong. Most of the water is salt water. We can find it in the world’s oceans. Only about 3% is fresh water that we can drink.
Although you might think that most of the fresh water on the earth is found in the lakes and rivers, in fact, less than 1% of the fresh water can be found in these places. Around 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar (极地的) places. They are far from us. And the water there is tough to transport (运输).
The second greatest source (资源) of fresh water on the earth is under the ground. This kind of water is called groundwater. Places that don’t have fresh water from rivers and lakes depend on groundwater for drinking and other uses. Groundwater also can’t get away from pollution. Chemicals (化学制品) that are used in farming and factories can get into the ground.
The earth has little usable water. Luckily, each of us can do something to save water. Kids and adults are saving water wisely in their own communities (社区). If we work together, we will have a better world.
31. What percentage of the earth is covered by water?
A. About 25%. B. About 75%. C. About 43%. D. About 85%.
32. What does the underlined word “tough” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Dangerous B. Common. C. Difficult. D. Easy.

34. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. People are not short of water.
B. Most of the water in oceans is fresh water.
C. We can find most of the fresh water in the rivers on the earth.
D. About 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar places.
35. The purpose (目的) of the passage is to ________.
A. tell the situation of fresh water on the earth B. ask people to save water
C. introduce different kinds of water on the earth D. talk about the pollution on the earth
【答案】31. B 32. C 33. A 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了地球上的淡水来源以及呼吁大家节约用水。
31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“That’s because about three-fourths of the earth is covered by water. ”可知地球的四分之三被水覆盖,也就是75%,故选B。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Around 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar (极地的) places. They are far from us. ”可知地球上大约70%的淡水是极地地区的冰,离我们很远,所以很难运输,tough和difficult同义,故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Groundwater also can’t get away from pollution. Chemicals (化学制品) that are used in farming and factories can get into the ground.”可知化学制品可以污染地下水,故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Around 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar (极地的) places. They are far from us. ”可知地球上大约70%的淡水是极地地区的冰。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据“The earth has little usable water. Luckily, each of us can do something to save water. Kids and adults are saving water wisely in their own communities (社区). If we work together, we will have a better world.”(地球上几乎没有可用的水。幸运的是,我们每个人都可以做一些事情来节约用水。在他们自己的社区里,孩子和成年人都在明智地节约用水。如果我们共同努力,我们将拥有一个更美好的世界。)可知作者写这篇文章是为了让人们节约用水,故选B。

【50题详解】
句意:政府还建造了一些学校,并从城市派遣了教师来帮助。根据“and sent teachers from cities to help并从城市派遣教师帮助”可知教育相关,建学校更符合,由“some”可知名词复数。故填schools。
【51题详解】

【52题详解】
句意:大多数家庭家里都有电视和汽车。此处缺少形容词性物主代词修饰“homes”,故填their。
【53题详解】
句意:在假期期间,父母喜欢开车带孩子们去全国各地旅行。根据“take kids to...around the country by car开车带孩子们去全国各地”,可推知是去旅行。故填travel。
【54题详解】
句意:但是有些东西永远不会改变,比如学校对面的古老树木和秋千。根据“something will never change, such as the old tree...”说明尽管家乡变化很大,但有些东西永远不会改变。故填But。
【55题详解】
句意:我们的家乡在我们心中留下了许多温馨和甜蜜的回忆,我们将永远记住它。根据“many soft and sweet...”可知缺少被形容词修饰的复数名词,描述的是家乡留给我们的温馨和甜蜜的“记忆、回忆”,故填memories。

Earth is often called the Blue Planet. That’s because about three-fourths of the earth is covered by water. People think we are not short of water. In fact, they are wrong. Most of the water is salt water. We can find it in the world’s oceans. Only about 3% is fresh water that we can drink.
Although you might think that most of the fresh water on the earth is found in the lakes and rivers, in fact, less than 1% of the fresh water can be found in these places. Around 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar (极地的) places. They are far from us. And the water there is tough to transport (运输).
The second greatest source (资源) of fresh water on the earth is under the ground. This kind of water is called groundwater. Places that don’t have fresh water from rivers and lakes depend on groundwater for drinking and other uses. Groundwater also can’t get away from pollution. Chemicals (化学制品) that are used in farming and factories can get into the ground.
The earth has little usable water. Luckily, each of us can do something to save water. Kids and adults are saving water wisely in their own communities (社区). If we work together, we will have a better world.
31. What percentage of the earth is covered by water?
A. About 25%. B. About 75%. C. About 43%. D. About 85%.
32. What does the underlined word “tough” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Dangerous B. Common. C. Difficult. D. Easy.
33. Which one can lead to the pollution to underground water according to the passage?
A. Chemicals. B. Ice. C. Rubbish. D. Rain.
34. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. People are not short of water.
B. Most of the water in oceans is fresh water.
C. We can find most of the fresh water in the rivers on the earth.
D. About 70% of the earth’s fresh water is ice in the polar places.
35. The purpose (目的) of the passage is to ________.
A. tell the situation of fresh water on the earth B. ask people to save water
C. introduce different kinds of water on the earth D. talk about the pollution on the earth
