Their main enemy is the sea. A large part of the countr
13、y is below sea level. In fact, Holland is also called the “Netherlands“ which means “low land“. Very tall and strong walls, called dykes, have built to keep out the sea. But in very rough weather the sea may suddenly burst through a dyke. Great damage can be caused by floods when this happens.Three
14、large rivers are also part of the problem. These rivers are the Rhine, the Maas and the Scheldt. They flow through Holland into the North Sea. They have cut many passages across the country. At low tides, the rivers flow into the sea as usual. But at high tide, the sea can flow into the rivers! This
15、 is because the land is so low.The battles against the water never end, but they have made Holland a bigger and bigger country. In order to prevent floods, the engineers take, or reclaim land that was under water. The Dutch have been reclaiming land for seven hundred years.Land is usually reclaimed
16、from a passage between islands. Two dykes are built across the passage, so they block the water between them. Then the engineers dig long canals and pump the water into them. At low tide, the canals empty the water into the sea.Because the land is so low, water from the sea and rivers can rise up th
17、rough the ground. For this reason, the pumps continue working even the land has been drained(that is, when the water has been pumped away). The dykes contain gates, and through these the water is pumped out. In many parts of Holland, pumps must be working all the time. If they stopped, there will be
18、 very bad floods.A piece of reclaimed land is called polder, and Holland has thousands of polders. Some are very large, but others are quite small. There are farms on many of the polders. Corn and other crops grow well on the drained land, and it gives good grass for cattle. Many small towns and vil
19、lages stand on polders. Even Amsterdams great airport, Schiphol, was built on reclaimed land. This land used to be under the old Lake Haarlem.31 Water is the main threat to Holland because _.（A）the sea is too rough（B） the land is lower than the sea（C） the high and strong dykes can not keep the flood
20、s out（D）the weather is too rough32 “Netherlands“ means _.（A）high land（B） land of water（C） low land（D）land of dykes33 Holland is threatened not only by the sea, but also by _.（A）the floods from broken dykes（B） the three rivers（C） the sea tides（D）many passages the three rivers have cut across the coun
21、try 34 The Holland claims land from the sea in order to _.（A）prevent floods（B） make their country larger（C） make their country more beautiful（D）have more farmland34 Our environment is getting worse and worse with the increase of the world population, which affects the environment in two ways. Firstl
22、y, the limited energy resources will be used up much faster. Secondly, the increasing population creates more pollution, another severe problem that needs to be solved. Both problems are long-term ones because actions taken now show their results slowly over many years. They are also urgent because
23、delays in action can lead to great suffering and social problems. The question seems to be difficult to handle for most people. However, a person can be a protector of environment in everyday life if he takes actions to save the environment right now. With the development of technology, cars make tr
24、ansportation easier and quicker than before, but we cant ignore the disadvantages brought to us by more and more cars in use. For example, we are consuming gasoline, which is a non-renewable resource, and will soon be gone. Moreover, the exhausted gas from cars pollutes our air, and our health is th
25、erefore threatened by air pollution, which has a big potential effect on our daily life. So we can consider walking, taking buses, carpooling instead of driving cars alone. This seems to be a very slow process that cant be so effective if its taken by a single person. But when more and more people b
26、ecome aware of the importance and positively take it as their personal responsibilities, the condition of the air will be improved to great extent.35 According to the writer, the main problem to our environment today is _.（A）the increase of population（B） the limited energy resources（C） the more seri
