寒假大串联黄山书社系列答案
寒假创新型自主学习第三学期寒假衔接系列答案If California were not already so famous for Sillicon Valley(硅谷) and Hollywood, it might be well－known for the groups of water－technology firms in its San Diego County. The reverse－osmosis (RO) spiral module, the technique that supports turning seawater and waste－water into drinkable stuff, began in San Diego in 1964. Today dozens of firms in the area supply many of the world's approximately 13，000 RO plants in places from the Persian Gulf and Israel to Australia and China.
Southern California itself, however, has not so far been a big user of its own technology. This is surprising, given that the whole American south－west faces a water problem. But now as the climate gets warmer and the population increases, there is more agreement that the existing infrastructure, consisting of vast pipes that carry water from the Sacramento Delta in the north and the Colorado River in the east, will not be enough. In places such as San Diego, which has inadequate and salty groundwater and currently imports 90% or its water, the answers must be greater conservation, reusing as much water as possible, and getting most of the rest from the sea.
The first part, conservation, has been widely accepted by the public. San Diego today uses less water with a larger population than it did in 1989, the year water consumption peaked. The second part, water recycling has been a hard sell, because of an unpleasant factor. Americans still use the term “toilet－to－tap” for recycling, even though properly treated waste－water is nowadays completely clean. Singapore made its programme acceptable in part by renaming it as NEWater.
This is where desalination comes in, which means taking the salt out of salt water. A firm called Poseidon Resources is now close to building the biggest desalination plant in America behind a power station by the beach in Carlsbad. The power plant sucks in 304m gallons of seawater a day for cooling, so Poseidon plans to change 104m gallons a day by using the RO spiral module.
Lots of people like the idea. Once fully running in 2015, the plant could produce 10% of the region's water. And there are plans for more desalination plants. Many places would need to take much less water from the endangered Colorado River. But a few people hate it a lot. Joe Geever, an expert in biology, says desalination uses too much energy and that Poseidon plant would kill too much sea life. He understands that there is a role for desalination, he says, but would rather not have it right there, right now, and on this scale.

| D．It is a promising water treatment technology welcomed by a lot of people. |
| A．2. | B．3. | C．4. | D．5. |
| A．The Colorado River is the main water source for California. |
| B．Americans still use the term “toilet－to－tap” for recycling water. |

Somali pirates(海盗) robbed three Thai fishing ships with 77 sailors on board nearly l，200 miles off the Somali coast，the farthest-off-shore attack to date，an officer said Tuesday.
Pirates have gone farther south and east in answer to increased patrols(巡逻)by warships off the Somali shore. The robbing of the three ships on Sunday was about 600 miles outside the normal operation area for the international force，said a spokesman．
The spokesman said the attack so far out at sea was a clear sign that the international patrols against pirates were having a “marked effect on pirate activity in the area”．
“Once they start attacking that far out，you’re not even really talking about the Somali basin or areas of water that have any connection with Somalia,” said an officer，Ro ger Middleton．“Once you’re that far out，it's just the Indian Ocean，and it means you’re looking at trade going from the Gulf to Asia，from Asia to South Africa.”
"This is the farthest robbing to date．They are now operating near the Maldives and India,”said another officer．
The three ships--the MV Prantalay ll，12，and l 4—had 77 members on board in total．All of them are Thai, the spokesman said．Before the Sunday robbing，pirates held l l ships and 228 sailors．
Pirates have increased attacks over the past year in hopes of catching more dollar payments. Because of increased patrols and defenses on board ships，the success rate(率)has gone down，though the number of successful attacks has stayed the same year over year.【小题1】Which is the best title of the passage?

| B．The patrols are more difficult. |
| C．More patrols are quite necessary even in Asia. |

I was helping in my son’s classroom a while ago when I saw a 1poster that reads．“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can break my heart”．Teachers are such an important part of a child’s life．A 21 support determines how safe a child feels in school．A teacher’s 22 determines how much risk a child will take in the classroom．A teacher’s understanding determines how important a child 23 in school．A teacher’s love of his or her job and students determines a child’s 24 towards education．
And the influence that a teacher has on a child does not 25 ．when the school 26 rings the end of the day．27 , those feelings that are developed in the classroom 28 with the child and，in a large part，determine what sort of evening the child and his or her family will have．The importance of a teacher to a child is clear and 29 be too highly thought of．
Both my children are 30 to have unusual and wonderful teachers．As a result， they love going ro school almost as 31 as they love speaking like a teacher．For example，one of Hannah’s 32 phrases is used when I make a mistake：she looks at me with understanding 33 says，“It’s okay to make mistakes，mama，because you’re only 34 ．”But perhaps my favorite is what．Jacob says to his sister when she says something he doesn’t like．With his hand 35 his heart，he says，“Don’t say that because words can 36 my heart．”And every time I hear such 37 ，my heart 38 with gratefulness for the wonderful teachers who make my children feel safe，important，and successful in the classroom，and who are helping my children achieve emotional 39．
We need only to look at the students．Children 40 teachers’ words and actions， and the content of those reflections shows a teacher’s greatness．
