March 20th is World Water Day every year. According to a report from the United Nations, more than half of the world's major rivers have serious water loss and are polluted.

The Yellow River, the world's fifth longest river, watered some of the oldest farms on earth.

1.Its source（源頭）on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is drying up. In most of the past 35 years, it didn't reach the sea.

The Nile in Egypt, running 6, 650 km, is the longest river in the world. 2. Now it is down to 2 billion m³ or so. Australia's Murray River reaches the sea only every other year. One fifth of America's Rio Grande has no water, either.

3.

Mostly it’s damming（筑壩）and global warming that make rivers dry. 4. Now about 45, 000 of them lie across the world’s rivers. They hold back around 15% of the world's fresh water from running to the sea.

5.Warmer weather takes water away. The glacier（冰川）are becoming smaller. The source of the Yellow River is drying up because of it. Global warming has had certain effects on water sources. Droughts （干旱） happening around the world make people pay more attention to this fact.

A. Dams provide fields with water and make power.

B. How does it happen?

C. It used to carry 32 billion m³ of water a year.

D. But now it has a serious problem.

E. Global warming is making things worse.

A game of catch is simply two people throwing a ball back and forth（來回地）. It seems a little and many people may not be interested in it. The two people are close enough to talk, but too far to touch. They might have baseball gloves, or they might use their hands.

In fact, playing catch is part of practice—to make you get used to using a ball and glove. But any American kid will teach you it’s much more than that. Playing catch is a time for kids to with your father. It’s a time when there’s to worry about except catching a ball. It’s a time when words move as seamlessly（準(zhǔn)確不誤地） as the ball itself, back and forth, easy and relaxing. It’s an excuse to time together.

Because baseball is an American sport, and a big part of being American, playing catch is kind of an all-American dad activity. In the suburbs（郊區(qū)）, most people have backyards — not enough to play baseball in, but just big enough for a game of catch. Those who have no can play in the street or in the park.

When adults are asked to talk about the good of their dads, many of them will say something about playing catch. Why? Probably because dads are usually very . A catch game is a time that is only for one thing. This is a time when a kid has her dad's . There is no work, no phone and no other people around to take your dad away from you. For the time that it takes to play a game of catch, your dad is all yours.

1.A. interesting B. boring C. amazing D. exciting

2.A. basketball B. baseball C. football D. volleyball

3.A. fight B. compare C. have D. be

4.A. nothing B. something C. everything D. anything

5.A. waste B. save C. spend D. forget

6.A. small B. large C. clean D. tidy

7.A. time B. money C. yards D. friends

8.A. jobs B. achievement C. education D. memories
