41、g much pressure on the world's supply of water. With 97% of the world's water too salty to be drunk or used in agriculture, the worldwide supply of water needs careful management, especially in agriculture. Although the idea of a water shortage(短缺) seems strange to someone fortunate enough t

42、o live in a high rainfall country, many of the world's agricultural industries experience constant water shortages. Although dams can be built to store water for agricultural use in dry areas and dry seasons, the costs of water redistribution(重新分配) are very high. Not only is there the cost of th

43、e engineering itself, but there is also an environmental cost to be considered. Where valleys(山谷) are flooded to create dams, houses are lost and wildlife homes destroyed. Besides, water may flow easily through pipes to fields, but it cannot be transported from one side of the world to the other. Ea

44、ch country must therefore rely on the management of its own water to supply its farming requirements. This is particularly troubling for countries with agricultural industries in areas dependent on irrigation(灌溉). In Texas, farmers' overuse of irrigation water has resulted in a 25% reduction of

45、the water stores. In the Central Valley area of southwestern USA, a huge water engineering project provided water for farming in dry valleys, but much of the water use has been poorly managed. Saudi Arabia's attempts to grow wheat in desert areas have seen the pumping of huge quantities of irrig

46、ation water from underground reserves. Because there is no rainfall in these areas, such reserves can only decrease, and it is believed that fifty years of pumping will see them run dry.108. From the first two paragraphs we learn that  .A. much of the world's water is available for useB. pe

Which of the following is true?A. The water stores in Texas have been reduced by 75%.B. Most industries in the world suffer from water

What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. Steps to improving water use management.B. Ways to reduce the costs o

50、ages and environmental protectionB Families should not waste their money on organic food, the government has warned. They should instead spend their money on whatever they can afford, even if it means eating frozen vegetables. The government now faces calls to end 20 million of subsidies to organic

51、farming. A recent study in the British Journal of Nutrition found organic crops have up to 60 percent more antioxidants(抗氧化物) than non-organic crops. But critics claim there is still no evidence that organic food is a healthier option. Amid growing concern that too few people are eating enough fruit

52、 and vegetables, the government is at pains to stress that families should not waste their money on organic food. Just 30 percent of people meet the recommendation to eat five or more portions of fruit and vegetables a day. Government frontbencher(前座議員) Baroness Jolly said, "Organic products pr

53、ovide a useful extension of consumer choice, but it is worth emphasizing that, nutritionally, they are no better and no worse than conventional products. The only benefit of organic farming was enjoyed by birds, insects, mammals and plants." "It is up to the consumers to decide how they sp

54、end their money on their fruit and vegetables. There are many reasons why an individual might wish to choose organic products but nutritional benefit should not be one of them," she added. Chief Executive Helen Browning said, "We know that people choose organic food because they believe it

55、 is better for them, also well as for wildlife, animal welfare and the environment, and this research backs up what people think about organic food."112. The government is encouraging people to  .A. eat more fruit and vegetablesB. do more research on foodC. pay attention to their healthD. protect the environment
