試題分析：短文大意：本文主要介紹造成水污染的原因。農(nóng)業(yè)中不完全使用的化學(xué)藥品被雨水沖刷到河流，湖泊和海洋，污染地表水和地下水。工廠釋放有毒化學(xué)物質(zhì)到海洋，河流或湖泊。運送石油的船只到途中損壞發(fā)生漏油等等。

【1】A細節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)文中To get more food，farmers use large amounts of chemicals可知為了得到更多的糧食，農(nóng)民使用大量的化學(xué)藥品，所以該選A。

【2】D細節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)文中As a result，people lost their，hearing and sight，and thousands of people died in the end．可知水污染對人的身體健康有很大危害，所以該選D。

【3】A詞義猜測題，根據(jù)后文中A local factory had poured waste water with mercury(水銀)into the Minamata Bay for 20 years．可知“release”的意思是“釋放”，所以該選A。
