2.Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger,but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways.You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water.A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater.Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers.It come from underground.The more roads and parking lots we pave,the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.
Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).Driver climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall,but in any case,good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.
Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference,too.In the United States,a family of four can use 1.5tons of water a day!This shows how much we depend on water to live,but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.
You can take steps to save water in your home.To start with,use the same glass for your drinking water all day.Wash it only once a day.Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full.Help your parents fix any leaks in your home.You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.

60.Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?C
A.Using river water.
B.Throwing batteries away.
C.paving parking lots.

18.The sun is setting like a huge orange ball.It's the cool evening on a stretch of beach.The water is paring the shore,the breeze is blowing slightly.There are one or two joggers and a couple of fishermen.Most people have gone home for the day.
An old man,with rounded shoulders,bushy eyebrows,and bony features,carries the bucket up to the dock(码头)that goes out into the water.He stands on the dock and all of a sudden there come a mass of dancing dots-seagulls!The man takes out of his bucket handfuls of shrimps(虾)and begins to throw them on the dock.Some seagulls land on his shoulders,some land on his hat,and they eat the shrimps.Long after the shrimps are gone his feathered friends remain.
Why is this man feeding seagulls?What could push him to do this as he does week after week?
The man in that scene is Eddie Rickenbacher,a famous World WarⅡpilot.His plane.The Flying Fortress,went down in 1942.No one could imagine that he and his eight passengers should escape death by climbing into two boats for thirty days.They fought thirst,the sun,and sharks.But what nearly killed them was starvation.Their foods were gone within eight days and they didn't have anything left.
Every day Rickenbacher and the passengers would have a daily afternoon devotional and prayer time.One day after the devotional,Rickenbacher put his hat over his eyes and tried to get some sleep.Within a few moments he felt something on his head.He knew in an instant it was a seagull.All the others on the two boats noticed the seagull.No one spoke,no one moved.Rickenbacher quickly grabbed the seagull and with thanksgiving,they ate the flesh of the bird.They used the remains for fish bait(鱼饵)and survived.
