Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
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. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.
Drier 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.
In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons 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.
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. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling (回收) batteries instead of throwing them away.
A. Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages.
B. Help your parents fix any leaks (漏水的地方) in your home.
C. Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too.
D. Some measures to save water should be taken by the government.
E. A major part of the water we use every day is the water from lakes or rivers.
F. A major part of the water we use every day is ground water.
G. You can take steps to save water in your home.

【解析】这是一篇关于用水问题的议论文。告诉我们，尽管大量用水和污染水源使人类用水处于危险境地，但是人类一些小型的活动也对用水问题有着巨大的影响。短文详细描写了生活中容易造成浪费的一些用水问题，并提出了相应的建议。

（1）F考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据上一句：你可能惊讶铺平道路将导致的更少的可用的淡水。根据下一句：地下水不是来自河流或湖泊。它来自地下。可知此处应该是我们用的是地下水，后一句介绍它的来源。故选F。

（2）A考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下一句：比降雨多的地区相比，干燥气候当然更可能导致干旱，在任何情况下，良好的管理可以帮助确保有足够的水来满足我们的基本需求。后一句是自然地原因，前一句有可能与人为的原因有关。故选A。

（3）C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据下一句：在美国，一个四口之家每天可以用1.5吨水！此处是讲每天的用水量很大。故选C。

（4）G考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据后文讲的是家里洗碗机的用水问题，此处应该是怎么家里怎么节约水。故选G。

（5）B 考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。根据前文是节约家里的用水，故选项中符合的只有B。故选B。
