22、My grandfather often complains (抱怨)about how fast things have changed, and says that life used to be better. Families are not families they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If husband and wife are having problems with their marriage, they don't stay together any more. Mothers used to stay at home to take care of their children, but not anymore now. Everyone's working. No one has time for children any more. They are left for their grandparents.

And the cars! No one walks anymore. Everyone drives. We used to walk five miles to school every day, even in winter. And in school, the children don't have to think anymore. In math class, for example, we used to add, minus, multiply, and divide in our heads. Kids don't use their heads anymore. They use calculators(计算器). Most families have computers now. In the old days, we didn't have computers. We didn't even have electricity. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now fewer people eat home-cooked food. And people don't talk to each other anymore. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think... Life used to be simple, but it isn't anymore.

23、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.

【1】The world is thirsty because ________.

A．3/4 of the earth is covered with water

【3】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

【4】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.

24、   April Fool’s Day is coming! But do you know how April Fool’s Day comes?

In the sixteenth century in France, the start of the New Year was on April 1st. People celebrated the New Year in the same way as it is today. They held parties and danced into the late night.

Then in 1562, Pope Gregory introduced a new calendar into the Christian(基督教的)world, and the new year fell on January 1st. Some people didn’t believe the change in the date, so they celebrated the New Year on April 1st. Others played tricks on them and called them “April fools”.

Today Americans play small tricks on friends on the first day of April. One common trick on April Fool’s Day is pointing down to a friend’s shoe and saying, “Your shoelace is untied.” School children like to tell a classmate that there are no classes. Then if someone believes the trick, he or she will be called the “April fool”! People play tricks on each other only because they want to enjoy themselves together. Most jokes are really funny and people play tricks not to hurt anyone but to find happiness.
