He is carrying a plastic bottle and 37 water. He finds a pool of muddy water reach down into the earth and he fills his jug. Then he takes the long walk back home and uses this 38 water for drinking, cooking and washing. This has become the daily life for millions of people in southwest China. The people in this area are suffering from a 39 water shortage caused by drought(干旱). Almost 25 million people are affected by the drought. Most of them are farmers who live in rural areas. The government is helping the people by 40 fresh drinking water. But without rain, the farmers will not be able to grow crops and feed animals. Some scientists say, “Because of the climate 41 , droughts will become more often in China and in other parts of the world.” This tells us how important fresh water is. Shanghai has 42 rain and water. So we shouldn’t complain as we stand under our umbrellas and look up at another rain-filled sky this spring. We should give thought for that old man who is looking up at a different sky and waiting for the rain.

Part 3 Reading and writing (第三部分 阅读与写话 共38分)
Ⅵ. Reading comprehension
A.Choose the best answer.（根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案) (共6分)
In last month’s issue of Teen News we asked you to email us your answers to the following questions: Have you read or heard today’s news headlines? Where do you usually get your news from? Do you read or listen to the news every day?
What news are you interested in?
Here are the results!
Most of you (sixty-nine percent) prefer watching the news on TV and thirty-five percent regularly log on to news websites. Thirty-one percent of you read or listen to the news every day, but only sixteen percent like watching current affairs(时事新闻)programmes. You’re more interested in national news than international news, but nearly eighty-five percent of our readers watch news flashes about important events in the world.
So, is there any room for newspapers in today’s world? Twenty-three percent of you said ’yes’, but more than half (fifty-one percent) said you could live without them. Jake and Lily explain their views: Jake Moreno (16)
I’ve never bought a newspaper. I usually find out about the news through a social networking site. That’s how I heard about the attack in Manchester. One of my friends added a link to a news flash. News websites are good too because you can listen to podcasts and watch videos.
