Question

阅读理解 　　Queensland has recently started to carry out a water recycling policy．Queenslanders will be drinking recycled water as well as using it for other purposes．They were quickly followed by South Australia, where the government changed their former anti-recycling policies． 　　So what is Victorian Government doing? It's bringing Victorians “good news” that they won't have to drink recycled water．Great…We actually have a government that is DUMBER than SA and QLD ones…Good news indeed．Now every Melbournian knows－we are smarter and better than the Queensland folks．Then why are we run by fools? 　　Bracks' government has put the State's water protection on the constant force, by using dangerous and awful system for its projects and failing to provide the necessary rules for the industrial needs．After spoiling the water resources for years on end－Bracksie blames the households(i．e．YOU)for water wasteage．Ridiculous restrictions(限制)are made, supported by Dob-your-neighbour phone line．Cars become dirty, grass becomes dead, naked people bathe in the showers…Water resources keep on decreasing．So instead of supporting recycling, Bracks owes it to people's showing no attention．Most of Europe as well as parts of Asia drink recycled water, despite not being in a serious draught(干旱)like Australia．Drinking recycled water is SAFE, if the technologies used are proper ones． 　　Meanwhile, the real reason for the draughts－environmental change is hardly being addressed by the State Government at all．Yes, they have given us a target for CO2　20％decrease in 20 years' time, but we question：A, that is not enough; B, that is too far away; C, what is going to be done to achieve those targets? (1) According to the author, it is ________ for Victorian Government to refuse the water recycling policy． [　　] A． necessary B． great C． unimportant D． stupid (2) Victorian Government believes that ________． [　　] A． the recycling policy of the other states is effective B． supporting water recycling is all Victorians' duty C． giving a target to decrease CO2 also means recycling D． limiting the use of water resources is very important (3) The author thinks that the decrease of water is mainly caused by ________． [　　] A． environmental pollution B． industrial development C． the government's wrong policies D． human beings' wrong use (4) The passage mainly talks about ________． [　　] A． a thirsty world B． a wrong policy C． a wise decision D． a new research

Answer 1

答案：1．D;2．D;3．A;4．B;
解析：

(1)	考查细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句话中的fools可以得知。
(2)	考查细节理解题。根据文章第二、三段可知澳洲政府拒绝实行循环利用水的政策，因此A、B、C不正确；根据第三段中的Ridiculous restrictions(限制)are made可知D正确。
(3)	考查细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句话可知A正确。
(4)	解析：考查主旨大意。文章主要是来指责澳洲政府不采取循环利用水的政策。故B正确。 　　文章大意：文章作者批评了澳洲政府拒绝执行循环利用水的政策，而采取限制人们日常用水的办法来应对日夜减少的水资源问题。同时，政府把水资源减少的原因归结于人们对水资源重视不够，而没有意识到真正的原因是环境变化。
