Our increasing population will tremendously increase urban wastes, primarily sewage (污物 ). On tile other hand, increasing demands for wate

19、r will decrease substantially the amount of water available for diluting (稀释 ) wastes. Rapidly expanding industries which involve more and mine complex chemical processes will produce large volumes of liquid wastes, and many of these will contain chemicals which are noxious. To feed our rapidly expa

20、nding population, agriculture will have to be intensified. This will involve ever-increasing quantities of agricultural chemicals. From this, it is apparent that drastic steps must be taken immediately to develop correct measures for the pollution problem. There are two ways by which this pollution

21、problem can be solved. The first way is to de- crease their pollution hazard. This involves the processing of solid wastes “prior to“ disposal and the treatment of liquid wastes. A second approach is to develop an economic use for all or a part of the wastes. Farm manure (肥料 ) is spread in fields as

22、 a nutrient or organic supplement. Effluents (废液 ) from sewage disposal plants are used in some areas both for irrigation and for the nutrients contained. Effluents from other processing factories may also be used as a supplemental source of water. Many industries, such as meat and poultry processin

23、g factories, are currently changing former waste products into marketable by-products. Other industries are economic uses for waste products. 36 The reason that water problem will become more and more serious is _. （ A） decrease in rainfall （ B） high temperature （ C） increase in wastes （ D） the wast

24、e of water 37 How many ways does this passage point out to deal with water pollution problem? （ A） One. （ B） Two. （ C） Three. （ D） Four. 38 The words “prior to“ (para.2) probably mean “_“. （ A） . after （ B） during （ C） before （ D） when 39 The second way of solving water pollution problem is about _.

25、 （ A） serious limits to industrial factories （ B） forbidding some factories discharging effluents （ C） reusing all or a part of wastes （ D） decreasing pollution hazard 40 By writing the passage, the author wants to _ （ A） familiarize us with the serious water problem （ B） show his or her scientific

26、research to reader （ C） tell us how to use effluents （ D） suggest that the processing factories use wastes Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 Since there is such an abundance of food in the sea, it is understand

27、able that some of the efficient, highly adaptable, warm-blooded mammals(哺乳动物 ) that evolved on land should have returned to the sea. Those that did have flourished. Within about 50 million years no time at all, geologically speaking one of the four kinds of mammals that have returned to a marine env

28、ironment has developed into the largest of all animal forms, the whale. A second kind, the seal, has produced what is probably the greatest population of large carnivorous mammals on Earth. This suggests that these “top dogs“ of the ocean are prospering and multiplying. However, such has not been th

29、e case, at least not for the last 150 years. Trouble has closed in on these mammals in the form of equally warm-blooded and even more efficient and adaptable predators, humans. At sea, as on land, humans have now positioned themselves on the top of the whole great pyramid of life, and they have caus

30、ed serious problems for the mammals of the sea. There is a simple reason for this. Marine mammals have the misfortune to be swimming aggregates of commodities that humans want: fur, oil and meat. Even so, they might not be so vulnerable to human depredation if they did not, like humans, reproduce so

31、 slowly. Every year humans take more than 50 million tons of fish from the oceans without critically depleting the population of any species. But the slow-breeding mammals of the sea have been all but wiped out by humans seeking to satisfy their wants and whims. 41 This article mainly talked about _

32、. （ A） whales （ B） seals （ C） carnivorous animals （ D） mammals 42 Which animal has returned to ocean and developed into the largest of all animal forms? （ A） The shark. （ B） The whale. （ C） The seal. （ D） The dolphin. 43 According the passage, the main threat to the mammals is _. （ A） the polluted m

33、arine environment （ B） the global warming （ C） the human beings （ D） the slow-breeding rate 44 Which of the following commodities is not the commodity that human wants in this article? （ A） Fur. （ B） Bone. （ C） Oil. （ D） Meat. 45 The top of the whole great pyramid of life is _. （ A） the humans （ B）

34、the mammals （ C） the seals （ D） the tigers Task 3 Directions: The following is a passage. After reading it, you are required to complete the outline in the table below (No. 46 through 50).
