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. ( )26. What percentage (百分比) of the earth is covered by water？ A. About 25%.
