6.Some years ago on a hot summer day in South Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house.In a hurry to dive into the cool water,he ran out the back door,leaving behind shoes,socks,and shirt as he went. (56)F His mother saw the two as they got closer and closer together in the house,looking out of the window. (57)G Hearing her voice,the little boy became alarmed and made a return to swim to his mother.It was too late.Just as he reached her,the crocodile reached him.From the shore,the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile seized his legs.That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. (58)E A farmer happened to drive by,heard her screams,raced from his truck,took aim and shot the crocodile.Remarkably,after weeks and weeks in the hospital,the little boy survived.His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal and,on his arms,were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved. (59)D The boy lifted his pant legs.And then,with obvious pride,he said to the reporter."But look at my arms. (60)B I have them because my mom wouldn't let go."
You and I can identify with that little boy.We have scars,too.No,not from a crocodile,or anything quite so dramatic.But,the scars of a painful past.Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret.But,some wounds,my friend,are because God has refused to let go.In the midst of your struggle,he's been there holding on to you.
A.I love my mother very much.
B.I have great scars on my arms,too.
C.The mother managed to pull her son from the water at last.
D.The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy asked if he would show him his scars.
E.The crocodile was much stronger than the mother,but the mother didn't let go.
F.He flew into the water,not realizing that a crocodile was swimming toward him.
G.Dead scared,she ran toward the water,yelling to her son as loudly as she could.

We typically think of water as the liquid that flows from a tap.However,nearly all---92percent---of the water used by people goes into growing crops,according to water researcher Arjen Hoekstra at the university to Twente in the Netherlands.He and his team recently studied the hidden travels of virtual water used in products made from things like crops and meats.These products are shipped around the world.
Virtue water is immense.For example,consider a sugary soft drink.Hoekstra and his team estimated that to produce one half-liter of the drink requires between 170and 310liters of water.Only a tiny amount of that-about 1percent-is the water actually used in the soda.The vast majority of the water-about 95%-is used to grow and process the ingredients(原料).Another 4percent goes into the packaging and labeling,said the scientists.In Hoekstra's calculation,when one country produces a half-liter of soda and sells it abroad,it exports as much virtual water as would make a large refrigerator full of water.
According to Heokstra's new report,dry countries like Israel and Kuwait,both in the Middle East,get the majority of their virtual water from other countries,through imported products.More surprisingly,a few wetter countries,like the Netherlands and the United Kingdom,also get the majority of their virtual water from other places.That means that most of the water used to grow or produce the products and food consumed in those countries came from other countries.
In the United States,most of the virtual water used comes from American sources; only about 20percent of the virtual water comes from outside national boundaries.In China,even less of the water associated with its products-about 10percent-comes from foreign countries.
Tracing the water trade,Hoekstra and his team turned up other surprising relationships.For instance,often a dry region sends virtual water to a wetter region.Dry areas in northern China,for example,send virtual water to the southern part of that country,which is wetter.
Title:Virtual water
General introduction | ●Water flows downhill,and also travels (66)worldwide by means of import-export trade. ●The water used in all the processes (67)involved in producing goods and food is called virtual water. |
An example | ●Producing one half-liter of a sugary soft drink requires much water,(68)ranging from 170to 310liters. ●About 1percent of the water is used in the soda,while about 95percent is used for the (69)growth and processing of the ingredients. ●Another 4percent is used to (70)package and label the drink. ●The water used to produce and export a half-liter of soda could (71)fill a large refrigerator. |
The(72)Content(s ) of Hoekstra's new report | ●Dry countries as well as some wet countries get most of their virtual water from foreign countries by (73)importing products. ●China and the U.S.get virtual water (74)mostly/mainly from their own sources. ●Dry regions surprisingly (75)tend to send virtual water to wetter regions. |
Social media is so common in our society that almost everyone is connected to some form of it,whether it is Twitter,Facebook or even Pinterest.We are in a fast-paced,technologically evolving society and we are addicted to social media.(16)B
So how does one ensure a positive online reputation?It's simple:
Keep it clean.(17)E Party photos with alcohol are an absolute no-no.Would you want to have your boss see these photos?Make sure to post contents that you feel positively reflect you,your creativity and your skills.
(18)DYou have a private Twitter account so you can post anything you want?This is decidedly not the case.Privacy settings make it harder to see your full account,but it's not impossible.Under no circumstance should you rely on privacy settings as a way to protect inappropriate contents.

Follow these simple rules and you're on your way to building,or restoring an online reputation.Using social media positively doesn't mean you can't have fun and use it to express yourself; however,you want to ensure that you're OK with anyone seeing everything you post.(20)F
