The big red American car was much too wide for an English country road. When Jack saw it running towards him, he stopped his own car at the side of the road to make room for it to pass. The American car went slowly past, so close that he could see the driver’s face clearly.
“Where have I seen that face before?” he though. “Wait a minute! I remember now. It was in the newspaper!” He took all the newspapers from his bag and turned quickly to the middle page. There was a picture of the face in it. Yes, it had a large mouth and small eyes, and his eyes were behind dark glasses.
“Wanted by the police,” read by Jack. “The city Bank will give a lot of money to anyone who helps the police to catch this man.”

In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution(污染). They join "Environment Clubs(环境俱乐部)". In an Environment Club, people work together to make our environment clean. Here are some things students often do.
No-garbage(垃圾)lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment Clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will find the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
No-car day. On a no car day, nobody comes to school in a car, not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: walk, jump, bike or run. Use your legs! It's lots of fun !
Turn off the water! Did you know that some toilets can waste 20~40 m3 0f water an hour? In a year, that would fill a small river! In Environment Clubs, students mend(修理) some toilets.

The world is not hungry , but it is thirsty . It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of (短缺) water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can't drink or use for watering plants directly (直接地) . Man can only drink and use the 3% - the water that comes from rivers and lakes. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it has been polluted (污染) .
Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid (避免) a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it . Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers . But it can be used again. Even if (即使) every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. What could people turn to next?
The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it's already used in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we'll be in no danger of drying up.The world is thirsty because ________.
| A．3/4 of the earth is covered with water |
| B．we have enough sea water to use directly |
| C．we haven't used all the water in rivers and lakes |
| D．about 97% of water on the earth can't be drunk or used for watering plants directly |
Which of the following is true ?
| A．3% of water on the earth is in rivers and lakes. |
| B．75% of water on the earth is the sea. |
| C．97% of the earth is covered with water. |
| D．3% of water on the earth is sea water. |
From the passage we learn _________.
| A．if every city reuses its water, we'll be in no danger of drying up |
| B．man can only drink and use about 25% of water on the earth |
| C．today in most large cities water is used only once |
| D．water can be used only once |
To avoid the serious water shortage , which of the following is the most important?
| A．Save water and try to make good use of the water in rivers and lakes. |
| B．Don't pollute water and keep all rivers and lakes clean. |
| C．Make dirty water clean and then reuse it. |
| D．Try to find a cheaper way to get the salt out of the sea water. |
The name of the passage would be ________
| A．The Sea Water | B．How to Save Water |
| C．The Thirsty World | D．The Polluted Water |
