17.Imagine one day,the water taps (水龙头) in your house stop running.You have to pay a lot of money to buy water from shops.And still there isn't enough water for everyone.Your mother has to save the family's shower (洗澡) water to use for washing clothes.Then she has to use that same dirty water to wash other things.Would you be able to stand that kind of life?Probably not.But that's what kids in Yemen are experiencing.Experts say Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water.According to a World Bank report,the capital,Sana,will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
Because of the water shortage (短缺) in Yemen,the government often cuts the water supply.Hannan,an 18-year-old from Lahej,told the Times,"In a good week we'll have a water supply (供给) all week.But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two."
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use.They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks.Private companies own the trucks.They travel around the city every day to sell water---at very high prices."A lot of people can't afford it,"she said.
The average (平均的) person in Yemen uses 100to 200cubic meters of water per year.That is far below the international water poverty(贫困)line of 1,000cubic meters.
The government is thinking of making use of sea water.But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.

A.drinking water

64.The Yemen governmentB.

分析 想象有一天,水龙头在你家停止运行.你必须从商店买水.对于每个人仍然不够.你的母亲不得不节约家庭的淋浴水来做其他的事情.你能忍受这种生活吗?
不可能.但这就是也门的孩子们正在经历的.专家说也门将成为世界上第一个用光水的国家.据报道,首都,萨那,将最早在2025年用光所有的饮用水.
因为这种短缺,政府往往切断供水.Hannan,来自于lahej,18岁,告诉时报:"美好的一周,我们都会有一周的供水.但是接下来的那个星期,只会有一天或两天供水."
Hannan说只有有钱人才有足够的水使用.他们可以从商店或从水卡车买水.民营公司有自己的车.他们每天行走在城市以非常高的价格出售水."很多人买不起,"她说.
也门人平均每年使用100-200立方米水.远远低于国际水贫困线的1000立方米.
政府正在考虑利用海水,但它要花费很多,而且这也不可能很快发生去帮助也门的人民.
