新视野三版读写2U2翻译讲解Part1A MOOC(massive open online course)is an online course aimed at unlimited participation and open access via the web.慕课是一种网络课程,它旨在通过网络实现广泛参与和开放接入。
MOOCs are a recent development in distance education and have now become a surging trend in higher education.慕课是远程教育迈出的最新一步,现已在高等教育领域迅速引领潮流。
These classes are aimed at expanding a university's reach from thousands of tuition-paying students who live in town,to millions of students around the world.通过这些课程,大学可以扩大影响的范围,从影响成千上万住在城里付学费的学生,扩展到惠及全球上百万的学生。
In addition to traditional course materials,MOOCs provide interactive user forums to support interactions between students and professors.除了拥有传统的课程资料,慕课还给使用者提供互动论坛,支持学生和讲师之间的交流。
MOOCs can encourage communication among participants who bring a variety of viewpoints,knowledge,and skills to the course;inspire people to"try on"subjects that they wouldn't otherwise pursue or even try on education itself; provide multiple ways to engage with course material,encouraging multimodal (多模式的)learning that can address the needs of learners with a variety of learning styles;and inspire better teaching and use of technologies for face-to-face courses.慕课能够促进参与者之间的交流,使得多种观点、知识和技能涌现到课堂上来;它鼓励人们尝试之前不可能尝试的课程,甚至是尝试新的教育方式;它提供多种学习课程资料的方式,鼓励多模式学习,以各种学习风格满足学习者的需求;另外,慕课促进教学的改善,使技术在面对面授课中得以更好地应用。
Because English or history majors are considered less competitive when the job market is shrinking, and they have to study something that can help them more easily locate their future jobsBecause as the tuition is climbing higher and higher, many students have run away from studying the humanities and toward "hard" skills that they think will lead to employmentSince more students are now taking job-oriented courses, libraries, where students of liberal arts used to study, are getting less popular than before; in contrast, labs are getting more eye-catching because students of science and engineering do experiments and research there.Because this inner drive that can be either constructive or destructive is so mysterious and powerful that it has attracted many people to speculate on it. From ancient times, these men and women developed artistic "languages" in the form of story, music, myth, painting, architecture, sculpture, landscape and traditions, which form the very foundation of civilization.Studying the humanities improves your ability to read and write, makes you familiar with the language of emotion and the creative process, and, more importantly, provides you with a wide scope of possibilities.Because in modern life, an ideal capacity for establishing one's career is to have both technical knowledge and inner insight, not just one without the other.Well-rounded human beings" are those who have insight and understand the passions, hopes and dreams common to all humanity.Since many people who once studied the humanities became famous in their career, the author implies that if students spend more time studying the humanities, they could surely become successful in the future as well.Gain more insight in life and society.• Better understand and predict human behavior.• Realize different interpretations of life and history.• Understand the past which has created the present. • Be aware of cultural and religious differences• Help read and write better.• Broaden their horizons.• Become more well • Become more well-rounded. -rounded.• Become a better communicator.• Develop critical thinking skills.• Have more flexibility for the future career.• Personal interest.• Special talents.• Futur • Future job prospects. e job prospects.• Financial status.• Family advice.• Friends influence.• Social environment.• Better job opportunities. • More practical skills.• Higher • Higher-paid jobs. -paid jobs.• Yes, it invests students with great insight.• Yes, it helps s tudents be better-rounded.• Yes, it provides students with flexibility to change their career.• No, it doesn't satisfy students' needs for their future career.• No, colleges are experiencing deep budget cuts and need to prioritize their financial resources.• No, the society needs more skills, not literature.Promotesacceleratemysteryinsightboostanalysiscalculatebarriersdestructionpr ospectpromisingbearinghousingobjectiveoffendexcludeexcessexecuteintensive / intensifyidentity Excessbearingobjectiveintensifyexecutepromisingexcludeidentityoffendhousin g Insighteducationboostmysteryprospectpromoteinvestappreciationaffect edspeculateare liable toin favor ofspeculate aboutinvestedwithstand up forin the form ofprepared forin the company ofin successionDid you have such an experience as when your high-school physical education (P.E.) teacher pushed you to run for several miles around the sports field in a P.E. class? When you were sweating and out of breath, did you ever wish that you could only stop taking a P.E. class in college? However, taking P.E. courses can be advantageous to all college students.First, taking P.E. classes helps students learn valuable communication and teamwork skills. There are many activities that require students to communicate and interact with each other when they are having a P.E. class. For example, when one group competes with the other in playing basketball,group cooperation is extremely important in order to win. Effective teamwork usually requires good communication skills.Another advantage is that taking P .E. classes enables students to moreeffectively handle their heavy coursework. Not infrequently, students sleep in class and miss important information. Not concentrating in class may be caused by insufficient sleep and no exercise. Through taking P .E. courses, students build up their health. Only when students stay healthy can they sleep better and learn better.To sum up, taking a P .E. course at college can benefit students in developing useful social skills as well as better coping skills for their stress at school. Therefore, P .E. courses bring students advantages both physically and academically.慕课是一种网络课程,它旨在通过网络实现广泛参与和开放接入。

For question 8・10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Will We Run Out of Water?Picture a "ghost ship” sinking into the sand, left to rot on dry land by a receding sea. Then imagine dust storms sweeping up toxic pesticides and chemical fertilizers from the dry seabed and spewing them across towns and villages.Seem like a scene from a movie about the end of the world? For people living near the Aral Sea in Central Asia, iVs all too real. Thirty years ago,government planners diverted the rivers that flow into the sea in order to irrigate (providewater for) farmland・ As a result, the sea has shrunk to half its original size, stranding ships on dry land・ The seawater has tripled in salt content and become polluted, killing all 24 native species of fish.Similar large scale efforts to redirect water in other parts of the world have also ended in ecological crisis, according to numerous environmental groups. But many countries continue to build massive dams and irrigation systems, even though such projects can create more problems than they fix. Why? People in many parts of the world are desperate for water, and more people will need more water in the next century."Growing populations will worsen problems with water,59says Peter H・Gleick, an environmental scientist at the Pacific Institute for studies in Development, Environment, and Security, a research organization in California・He fears that by the year 2025, as many as one third of the worlds projected 8.3 billion people willsuffer from water shortages.Where Water GoesOnly 2.5 percent of all water on Earth is freshwater, water suitable for drinking and growing food, says Sandra Postel, director of the Global Water Policy Project in Amherst, Mass. Two thirds of this freshwater is locked in glaciers and ice caps・In fact, only a tiny percentage of freshwater is part of the water cycle,in which water evaporates and rises into the atmosphere, then condenses and falls back to Earth as precipitation ( rain or snow )・Some precipitation runs off land to lakes and oceans, and some becomes groundwater, water that seeps into the earth. Much of this renewable freshwater ends up in remote places like the Amazon river basin in Brazil, where few people live. In fact, the world's population has access to only 12,500 cubic kilometers of freshwater—about the amount of water in LakeSuperior. And people use half of this amount already. "If water demand continues to climbrapidly/9says Postel, “there will be severe shortages and damage to the aquatic environment?9Close to HomeWater woes may seem remote to people living in rich countries like the United States. But Americans could face serious water shortages, too especially in areas that rely on groundwater; Groundwater accumulates in aquifers, layers of sand and gravel that lie between soil and bedrock ・ (For every liter of surface water, more than 90 liters are hidden underground)・Although the United States has large aquifers, farmers, ranchers^ and cities are tapping many of them for water faster than nature can replenish it. In northwest Texas, for example, over pumping has shrunk groundwater supplies by 25 percent, according to Postel・Americans may face even more urgentproblems from pollution. Drinking water inthe United States is generally safe and meetshigh standards. Nevertheless, one in fiveAmericans every day unknowingly drinkstap water contaminated with bacteria andchemical wastes, according to theEnvironmental Protection Agency. InMilwaukee, 400,000 people fell ill in 1993after drinking tap water tainted withcryptosporidium, a microbe that causesfever, diarrhea and vomiting・The SourceWhere so contaminants come from? In developing countries, people dump raw sewage into the same streams and rivers from which they draw water for drinking and cooking; about 250 million people a year get sick from water borne diseases・In developed countries, manufacturers use 100,000 chemical compounds to make a wide range of products. Toxic chemicals pollute water when released untreated into rivers and lakes. (Certain compounds, such as polychlorinated biphenyls,or PCBs,have been banned in the United States.)But almost everyone contributes to water pollution・ People often pour household cleaners, car antifreeze, and paint thinners down the drain; All of these contain hazardous chemicals.Scientists studying water in the San Francisco Bay reported in 1996 that 70 percent of the pollutants could be traced to household waste.Farmers have been criticized for overusing herbicides and pesticides, chemicals that kill weeds and insects but insects but that pollutes water as well. Farmers also use nitrates,nitrogen rich fertilizer that helps plants grow but that can wreak havoc on the environment. Nitrates are swept away by surface runoff to lakes and seas・Too many nitrates "over enrich" these bodies of water, encouraging the buildup of algae, or microscopic plants that live on the surface of the water. Algae deprive the water of oxygen that fish need to survive, at times choking off life in an entire body of water.Whafs the Solution?Water expert Gleick advocates conservation and local solutions to water related problems; governments, for instance, would be better off building small scale dams rather than huge and disruptive projects like the one that ruined theAral Sea."More than 1 billion people worldwide don?t have access to basic clean drinking water,59 says Gleick. “There has to be a strong push on the part of everyone governments and ordinary people t o make sure we have a resource sofundamental to life. ”1・That the huge water projects have diverted the rivers causes the Aral Sea to shrink.2.The construction of massive dams and irrigation projects does more good than harm・3・The chief causes of water shortage are population growth and water pollution・4.The problems Americans face concerning water are ground water shrinkage and tap water polluti on・5.According to the passage all water pollutants come from household waste.6.The people living in the United States will not be faced with water shortages.7.Water expert Gleick has come up with the best solution to water related problems.& According to Peter H. Gleick,by the year 2025, as many as _______ of the worlds people will suffer from water shortages.9.Two thirds of the freshwater on Earth is locked in _______ .lO.In developed countries, before toxic chemicals are released into rivers and lakes, they should be treated in order to avoid .Part II Reading Comprehension (Reading in depth) (40 points) Section A (10 points)Direction: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks・ Choose one word for each blank from the following words in the blank. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.(Passage A 和Passage B 二者选做其一。

Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A., B., C., and D.. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Philanthropy is a way that people and organizations show concern for others or work to improve the world. Approximately 72 percent of Americans donate to charity (慈善机构), and 51 percent do volunteer work. About 2 millions not-for-profit organizations and charities in the United States today receive this help.There are three types of philanthropists: individuals, foundations, and private corporations. Individuals give money or volunteer their time to support causes that are important to them. Foundations are organizations started by very wealthy individuals. Their “business” is not to make a profit but to give money away to not-for-profits.Private corporations may also use a portion of their business profits to make donations, or they may give away their products or services free of charge. However, foundations and corporations are responsible for only 20 percent of charitable donations; 80 percent comes from individuals.What makes people and institutions give away their time and money? One reason is altruism, the unselfish desire to help other people and make the world a better place. Other reasons involve personal interest. Under US tax law, an individual or business does not have to pay income tax on money that is donated to charity. For extremely wealthy individuals and corporations, this can mean millions of dollars they do not have to pay in taxes to the government. In addition to tax benefits, donors often receive favorable publicity for making donations, and they have an opportunity to influence the world around them.31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Philanthropy has become an accepted American custom.B. Philanthropy has made the US a great influence in the world.C. More and more organizations rely on philanthropy nowadays.D. Religion plays an important role in the philanthropy in the US.32. Which of the following is NOT characteristic of philanthropists?A. To donate money.B. To do volunteer work.C. To pay income tax.D. To provide free services.33. What is the main source of donations in the United States?A. Foundations.B. Individuals.C. The government.D. Private corporations.34. How are foundations different from private corporations in the aspect of philanthropy?A. They don’t make a profit.B. They receive more publicity.C. They are set up by very rich individuals.D. They don’t donate money to individuals.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Individuals tend to donate money to become famous.B. Foundations gain more power because of philanthropy.C. Some people donate money for practical purposes.D. The US tax law discourages people from donating money.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:A lot of people think that if they put off the decision of whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships, the problems they are having will magically somehow heal themselves or disappear. They won’t.If you don’t in vest some quality time now in taking a true, honest and truthful look at the state of your relationship, you could stay stuck in this place of indecision for a very long time. Many people waste so much precious time when they could be experiencing an incredible relationship filled with love, passion and joy, either in their current relationship or one that is more of what they want. We encourage you to take an honest look at your situation and feel how much pain you’ve been feeling about this relationship. If having a great relationship is important to you, you need to decide that you’re not willing to live without the love, passion, intimacy, and tenderness. You have to take the first step to create the kind of relationship and love you want in your life.W e’re not suggesting that you should leave your current relationship or marriage and head out looking for the new love of your life. That’s your decision and one that should only be made after some careful insight and thinking. What we are telling you is th at life is too short to go through it without having the love you want and the love that’s possible for all of us. If you are in a relationship that is causing you to wonder whetheryou should stay in it or leave—i t’s important that you take some time now to make it clear so that you’ll be able to ask yourself openly and honestly whether you’ll be able to heal the challenges.36. To make a decision about whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships quicker, people should ________.A. leave the problems until they heal themselves or disappearB. head out looking for the new love of his /her lifeC. seek expert’s advice and not make a quick decisionD. have a clear understanding of the state of their relationships37. What does the word “incredible” (Para. 2) probably mean in the passage?A. Marvelous.B. Impossible.C. Unusual.D. Unnecessary.38. According to the passage, if one person is not willing to live without love, passion, tenderness and so on, he must ________.A. leave the current relationshipB. take an honest look at his situationC. spend time experiencing an incredible relationshipD. take the first step to create that kind of relationship39. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. If one starts to wonder about the current relationship, it is time to end it.B. Making the decision about one’s relationship needs careful insight.C. A relationship that brings you pain is not necessarily a bad one.D. Life is too short for people to find true love.40. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. persuade people to find a better relationshipB. ask people to invest quality time in their relationshipsC. give people some advice on how to stay in or leave their relationshipsD. advise people how to have a relationship with love, passion and so onSection BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Be sure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).German careers or jobs fall into several categories. First, there are positions that require strong ability in German with a company in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. This category may also include a job requiring good German and/or bilingual (双语的) skills within a company doing business in the US, Canada, Mexico or elsewhere. Secondly, there are jobs that can be done in English in German Europe. Then there are German companies abroad.Most minor and many major positions are filled by recruiting German, Austrian or Swiss nationals. If you are already in German Europe, you may have a better chance of finding a job. In any case, it is best if your company can handle all the formalities involved when a foreign national takes a job in Germany. There are also relocation services that can help with this if you don’t have any ideas yourself.The German unemployment rate has remained at a fairly high level over the last decade. It is almost impossible for a non-German to get a job in Germany unless she/he can prove that it can’t be done by a German national. In certain fields, such as computer science or information systems, “green card” foreign workers have been imported, but this practice is still uncommon. The reality of searching for and finding a suitable position in German Europe or with a German firm means two main things: knowledge and planning. Too many times, job seekers have unrealistic expectations. Often they overestimate their language skills and underestimate the level of competition. Anotherdanger is ignoring culture shock. That’s why we also offer links to culture-related sites.For getting most German jobs, it is your ability in a field—computers, teaching, advertising, etc.—rather than your German skills that will be the biggest factor in a successful search. But all other things being equal between you and another candidate, it is the person with the best language skills who usually gets the job.41. What is the requirement of the job within a company doing business in the US,Canada, Mexico or elsewhere included in the first category?42. What might the company do for the benefit of a foreign employee?43. What seems to be “hot” fields if you are to find a job in German?44. What is the reason for the author to offer links to culture-related sites?45. What is more important to get most German jobs according to the passage?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, 0.5 mark each)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Book 2Unit 5Text 1 译文快乐的简明道理丹尼斯·普拉格在我作了一场以快乐为主题的报告之后,一位女士听众站起来说:“我丈夫也能来听这个报告就好了。
”她解释说:“尽管我非常爱他,可是和一个不快乐的人做夫妻真不是件容易的事情。
”这位女士用言语表达出了我一直在思索的一个道理——认真对待快乐,既有利于自己,也有利于他人。
我告诉她,我们每个人为了我们的配偶、孩子和朋友都应当尽可能地快乐。
小时候我不是一个特别快乐的孩子,像大多数十几岁的少年一样,我在苦中求乐。
然而,有一天,我突然意识到,我是在贪图省事。
任何人都可以不开心,这不需要勇气和努力。
真正的成就在于努力奋斗以获得快乐。
对许多人来说,我们必须努力去争取快乐这一概念还很新鲜,因为我们以为快乐是一种感觉,是我们碰到好事的结果,对于这些好事我们很难、甚至根本无法控制。
然而,事实恰好相反:在很大程度上我们可以控制快乐。
这是一场需要奋争的战斗,而不是一种等待的感觉。
要想获得幸福的生活,需要克服一些障碍,其中的3个是:与他人攀比我们大多数人拿自己与我们认为比我们更快乐的人相比——亲戚、熟人,或者经常是我们不大了解的人。
有一次,我遇到一个年轻男子,他给我的印象是特别的成功和快乐。
他说他爱他漂亮的妻子和他们的3个女儿,并说在他喜欢的城市里做广播脱口秀节目的主持人令他感到很快乐。
我记得我当时认为他是那种罕见的事事顺心的幸运儿。
之后我们开始谈论因特网。
他告诉我,他对因特网心存感激,因为他可以在网上查找医治多发性硬化症的信息——这种可怕的疾病正在折磨着他的妻子。
我当时觉得自己像个傻瓜,还以为他的生活中没有不快乐的事情。
想象中的完美无缺几乎我们所有的人都想象过生活应是什么样。
可问题当然是人们的工作、配偶以及孩子都很难达到想象中的理想标准。
这儿有我自身的例子:我们家里从来没有人离过婚。

So one evening he made a big bundle of them.There were so many furs that when they were packed tightly and tied together they made a bundle almost as big as Pa.(4)Very early one morning Pa strapped the bundle of furs on his shoulders,and started to walk to town.There were so many furs to carry that he could not take his gun.(5)Ma was worried,but Pa said that by starting before sun-up and walking very fast all day he could get home again before dark.(6)The nearest town was far ura and Mary had never seen a town.They had never seen astore.They had never seen even two houses standing together.But they knew that in a town there were many houses,and a store full of candy and calico and other wonderful things—powder,and shot,and salt,and store sugar.(7)They knew that Pa would trade his furs to the storekeeper for beautiful things from town,and all day they were expecting the presents he would bring them.When the sun sank low above the treetops and no more drops fell from the tips of the icicles they began to watch eagerly for Pa. (8)The sun sank out of sight,the woods grew dark,and he did not come.Ma started supper and set the table,but he did not come.It was time to do the chores,and still he had not come.(9)Ma said that Laura might come with her while she milked the ura could carry the lantern.(10)So Laura put on her coat and Ma buttoned it up.And Laura put her hands into her red mittens that hung by a red yarn string around her neck,while Ma lighted the candle in the lantern.(11)Laura was proud to be helping Ma with the milking,and she carried the lantern very carefully.Its sides were of tin,with places cut in them for the candle-light to shine through.(20.0分)15.0分(1)[单选题](5.0分)16.One day Pa went to town to________.A、sell animals he had caught all winter and buy articles of daily useB、trade the furs of

to live in the woods.C、Life in the woods was too dangerous for children.D、Life close to nature might also have its charms.正确答案:CPassage Two(1)When I was twenty-seven years old,I was a mining-broker’s clerk in San Francisco,and an expert in all the details of stock traffic.I was alone in the world,and had nothing to depend upon but my wits and a clean reputation;but these were setting my feet in the road to eventual fortune,and I was content with the prospect.My time was my own after the afternoon board,Saturdays,and I was accustomed to put it in on a little sail-boat on the bay.One day I ventured too far,and was carried out to sea.Just at nightfall,when hope was about gone,I was picked up by a small brig which was bound for London.It was a long and stormy voyage,and they made me work my passage without pay,as a common sailor.When I stepped ashore in London my clothes were ragged and shabby, and I had only a dollar in my pocket.This money fed and sheltered me twenty-four hours.During the next twenty-four I went without food and shelter.(2)About ten o’clock on the following morning,seedy and hungry,I was dragging myself alone Portland Place,when a child that was passing,towed by a nurse-maid,tossed a luscious big pear—minus one bite—into the gutter.I stopped,of course,and fastened my desiring eye on the muddy treasure.My mouth watered for it,my stomach craved it,my whole being begged for it.But every time I made a move to get it some passing eye detected my purpose,and of course I straightened up then,and looked indifferent,and pretended that I hadn’t been thinking about the pear at all.This same thing kept happening and happening,and I couldn’t get the pear.(3)I was just getting desperate enough to brave all the shame,and to seize it,when a window behind me was raised,and a gentleman spoke out of it,saying:“Step in here,please.”(4)I was admitted by a gorgeous flunkey,and shown into a sumptuous room where a couple of elderly gentlemen were sitting.They sent away the servant,and made me sit down.They had just finished their breakfast,and the sight of the remains of it almost overpowered me.I could hardly keep my wits together in the presence of that food,but as I was not asked to sample it,I had to bear my trouble as best I could.(5)Now,something had been happening there a little before,which I did not know anything about until a good many days afterwards,but I will tell you about it now.Those two old brothers had been having a pretty hot argument a couple of days before,and had ended by agreeing to decide it by a bet,which is the English way of settling everything.(6)You will remember that the Bank of England once issued two notes of a million pounds each,to be used for a special purpose connected with some public transaction with a foreign country.For some reason or other only one of these had been used and canceled;the other still lay in the vaults of the Bank.Well,the brothers,chatting along,happened to get to wondering what might be the fate of a perfectly honest and intelligent stranger who should be turned adrift in London without a friend,and with no money but that million-pound bank-note,and no way to account for his being in possession of it.Brother A said he would starve to death;Brother B said he wouldn’t.Brother A said he couldn’t offer it at a bank or anywhere else,because he would be arrested on the spot.So they went on disputing till Brother B said he would bet twenty thousand pounds that the man would live thirty days,anyway,on that million,and keep out of jail,too.Brother A took him up.Brother B went down to the Bank and bought that note.Then he dictated a letter,which one of his clerks wrote out in a beautiful round hand,and then the two brothers sat at the window a whole day watching for the right man to give it to.(7)I finally became the pick of them.(20.0分)13.2分(1)[单选题](6.6分)20.In Para.1,the phrase“set my feet”probably means_______.A、put me asideB、prepare meC、let me walkD、start my journey正确答案:B(2)[单选题](6.6分)21.It can be concluded from Para.2that________.A、the man wanted to maintain dignity though starvedB、the man could not get a proper chance to eat the pearC、the man did not really want the pear since it was dirtyD、it was very difficult for the man to get the pear正确答案:A(3)[单选题](6.8分)pared with Brother A,Brother B was more________towards the effect of the one-million-pound bank-note on a total stranger.A、neutralB、negativeC、reservedD、positive正确答案:D。

Then imagine dust storms sweeping up toxic pesticides and chemical fertilizers from the dry seabed and spewing them across towns and villages.Seem like a scene from a movie about the end of the world? For people living near the Aral Sea in Central Asia, it’s all too real. Thirtyyears ago, government planners diverted the rivers that flow into the sea in order to irrigate (provide water for)farmland. As a result, the sea has shrunk to half its original size, stranding ships on dry land. The seawater has tripled in salt content and become polluted, killing all 24 native species of fish.Similar large scale efforts to redirect water in other parts of the world have also ended in ecological crisis, according to numerous environmental groups. But many countries continue to build massive dams and irrigation systems, even though such projects can create more problems than they fix. Why? People in many parts of the world are desperate for water, and more people will need more water in the next century.“Growing populations will worsen problems with water,” says Peter H. Gleick, an environmental scientist at the Pacific Institute for studies in Development, Environment, and Security, a research organization in California.He fears that by the year 2025, as many as one third of the world’s projected 8.3 billion people will suffer from water shortages.Where Water GoesOnly 2.5 percent of all water on Earth is freshwater, water suitable for drinking and growing food, says Sandra Postel, director of the Global Water Policy Project in Amherst, Mass. Two thirds of this freshwater is locked in glaciers and ice caps. In fact, only a tiny percentage of freshwater is part of the water cycle, in which water evaporates and rises into the atmosphere, then condenses and falls back to Earth as precipitation(rain or snow).Some precipitation runs off land to lakes and oceans, and some becomes groundwater, water that seeps into the earth. Much of this renewable freshwater ends up in remote places like the Amazon river basin in Brazil, where few people live. In fact, the world’s population has access to only 12,500 cubic kilometers of freshwater—about the amount of water in LakeSuperior. And people use half of this amount already. “If wat er demand continues to climb rapidly,” says Postel, “there will be severe shortages and damage to the aquatic environment.”Close to HomeWater woes may seem remote to people living in rich countries like the United States. But Americans could face serious water shortages, too especially in areas that rely on groundwater. Groundwater accumulates in aquifers, layers of sand and gravel that lie between soil and bedrock. (For every liter of surface water, more than 90 liters are hidden underground).Although the United States has large aquifers, farmers, ranchers, and cities are tapping many of them for water faster than nature can replenish it. In northwest Texas, for example, over pumping has shrunk groundwater supplies by 25 percent, according to Postel.Americans may face even more urgentproblems from pollution. Drinking water in the United States is generally safe and meets high standards. Nevertheless, one in five Americans every day unknowingly drinks tap water contaminated with bacteria and chemical wastes, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. In Milwaukee, 400,000 people fell ill in 1993 after drinking tap water tainted with cryptosporidium, a microbe that causes fever, diarrhea and vomiting.The SourceWhere so contaminants come from? In developing countries, people dump raw sewage into the same streams and rivers from which they draw water for drinking and cooking; about 250 million people a year get sick from water borne diseases.In developed countries, manufacturers use 100,000 chemical compounds to make a wide range of products. Toxic chemicals pollute water when released untreated into rivers and lakes. (Certain compounds, such as polychlorinatedbiphenyls, or PCBs, have been banned in the United States.)But almost everyone contributes to water pollution. People often pour household cleaners, car antifreeze, and paint thinners down the drain; All of these contain hazardous chemicals. Scientists studying water in the San Francisco Bay reported in 1996 that 70 percent of the pollutants could be traced to household waste.Farmers have been criticized for overusing herbicides and pesticides, chemicals that kill weeds and insects but insects but that pollutes water as well. Farmers also use nitrates, nitrogen rich fertilizer that helps plants grow but that can wreak havoc on the environment. Nitrates are swept away by surface runoff to lakes and seas. Too many nitrates “over enrich”these bodies of water, encouraging the buildup of algae, or microscopic plants that live on the surface of the water. Algae deprive the water of oxygen that fish need to survive, at times choking off life in an entire body of water.What’s the Solution?Water expert Gleick advocates conservation and local solutions to water related problems; governments, for instance, would be better off building small scale dams rather than huge and disruptive projects like the one that ruined the Aral Sea.“More than 1 billion people worldwide don’t have access to basic clean drinking water,” says Gleick. “There has to be a strong push on the part of everyone governments and ordinary people-----to make sure we have a resource so fundamental to life.”1. That the huge water projects have diverted the rivers causes the Aral Sea to shrink.2. The construction of massive dams and irrigation projects does more good than harm.3. The chief causes of water shortage are population growth and water pollution.4. The problems Americans face concerning water are ground water shrinkage and tap water pollution.5. According to the passage all water pollutants come from household waste.6. The people living in the United States will not be faced with water shortages.7. Water expert Gleick has come up with the best solution to water related problems.8. According to Peter H. Gleick, by the year 2025, as many as ________ of the world’s people will suffer from water shortages.9.Two thirds of the freshwater on Earth is locked in________.10.In developed countries, before toxic chemicals are released into rivers and lakes, they should be treated in order to avoid________.Part II Reading Comprehension (Reading in depth) (40 points) Section A (10 points)Direction: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.
