【解析】

1.    詞義和固定搭配�！皊upply”提供“get”得到 又因?yàn)閎e +adj+to do sth 所以此處應(yīng)是be hard to do。。。做某事很困難。句意：在一些地方，水很難得到 故選C。

2.    what作主語(yǔ)，謂語(yǔ)使用單數(shù)形式。此處應(yīng)用三單形式。整篇文章為現(xiàn)在時(shí)，happen為不及物動(dòng)詞，無(wú)被動(dòng)。句意：當(dāng)一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)有這些問(wèn)題時(shí)會(huì)發(fā)生什么？ 故選A。

3.    詞義與詞性辨析。A關(guān)鍵B回答，答案C回答D方式，上一句是一個(gè)問(wèn)題what happens? 句意：一個(gè)加利福尼亞的小鎮(zhèn)發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)令人愉快的答案。 Answer即可做動(dòng)詞，又可作名詞。 故此處選B

4.    考察副詞辨析和名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。A不多B少許C很少，幾乎沒(méi)有D少許，少數(shù) AB均修飾不可數(shù)名詞 CD修飾可數(shù)名詞 “rain”雨，為不可數(shù)名詞。 句意：那里下雨不多。 故選A

5.    考察關(guān)于代詞的使用。 A它自己 B自己的C它D它是 句意：這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)沒(méi)有自己的水源。故選B

6.    動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。A去拿來(lái)B拿去C把…拿進(jìn)來(lái)；帶進(jìn)來(lái)；收獲（莊稼等）；賺（錢）D引導(dǎo) 句意：它使用的水是從30英里外的河里來(lái)的。 C在此處可引申為“水流過(guò)來(lái)” 故選C

7.    時(shí)態(tài)和詞組辨析。句意：隨著越來(lái)越多的人住在這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)里。 應(yīng)用過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。 come to live in 過(guò)來(lái)居住 come for live in 為了居住而來(lái)， 表示一種目的，但文中并沒(méi)有出現(xiàn)關(guān)于“目的”來(lái)居住，故選B

8.    形容詞和上下文辨析。 Water水，為不可數(shù)名詞。 前文提到“越來(lái)越多的人居住在這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)”所以此處句意應(yīng)是：更多的水被需要。 故選C

9.    短語(yǔ)辨析。 AB have to do 不得不做某事 C must to do 必須做某事 need to do 需要做某事 Now表示現(xiàn)在時(shí)，故排除B 根據(jù)上下文句意：現(xiàn)在，水不得不從600英里以外取來(lái)。 故選A

10.  形容詞辨析。 A,B,C,D均為許多，大量，不少 但water為不可數(shù)名詞，而ABC均修飾可數(shù)名詞。故選D

11.  動(dòng)詞和短語(yǔ)詞義辨析。 A put a plan（不存在這個(gè)詞組）B make a plan 制定計(jì)劃C supply a plan 提供計(jì)劃 D notice a plan 注意計(jì)劃 句意：這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)制訂了一個(gè)計(jì)劃，故選B

12.  詞義辨析。A一個(gè)方法B方法C一個(gè)答案D一個(gè)關(guān)鍵 句意：它發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)凈化污水的方法。 “way”是可數(shù)名詞，不能單獨(dú)使用。故選A

13.  介詞詞義和短語(yǔ)辨析。A for many ways（不存在這個(gè)詞組） B by many ways用許多方式C at many ways（不存在這個(gè)詞組）D in many ways在許多方面 句意：被凈化過(guò)的水被在許多方面重新使用。 故選D

14.  考察合成詞。句意：5個(gè)人工湖被開(kāi)鑿。 “湖”是被“人”開(kāi)鑿的，所以make應(yīng)用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。故選C

15.  固定搭配。 go+doing 去。。。 go on+to do 繼續(xù)做某事 go to..去某地 句意：人們到這里來(lái)釣魚，劃船。故選A

20.  代詞辨析。A 它是B 它的 C 某人的 D他的 句意：這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)拯救了它的水源，拯救水源也拯救了這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)。 故選B

【考點(diǎn)】本文主要涉及重點(diǎn)實(shí)詞辨析考察，數(shù)詞考察，介詞辨析，第三人稱單數(shù)，形容詞辨析和副詞辨析等，當(dāng)然，關(guān)鍵是上下文的內(nèi)在邏輯關(guān)系。

【點(diǎn)評(píng)】

文章主要講了加利福尼亞的一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)缺水，為了生存，他們把污水凈化后使用，這使得這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)迅速發(fā)展。

本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，難度不大。本文更加注重上下文之間的邏輯關(guān)系，通過(guò)提出問(wèn)題，解決問(wèn)題的寫作方法進(jìn)行闡述，更加關(guān)注了句與句之間的前后聯(lián)系。這就要求同學(xué)們?cè)谧稣f(shuō)明性文體的完型時(shí)更應(yīng)耐心，細(xì)心地去理清段與段，句與句之間的關(guān)系。在通讀的基礎(chǔ)上，標(biāo)出文章的標(biāo)志詞，然后去認(rèn)真辨析動(dòng)詞，名詞等實(shí)詞的具體意思，同時(shí)，對(duì)句子結(jié)構(gòu)，常見(jiàn)數(shù)次表達(dá)做到細(xì)致，并不斷加強(qiáng)積累。

A gadget (器具) which makes water out of air could become the greatest household invention since the microwave.

Using the same technology as a dehumidifier (除濕器), the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water because it can always get it from an unlimited source—the air.

The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countries, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage.

The machine works by drawing in wet air through a filter (過(guò)濾器) and over a cooling instrument which changes it into water drops. It can produce up to 12 liters a day. The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over, as the amount of water which is contained in the air increases. In keeping with its eco-development, the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three lights.

Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said: “The demand for water is off the chart. So people are looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable.”

The machine, which is about 3 feet wide, is likely to cost ￡800 when it goes on sale here in the spring. Its maker, Canadian Firm Element Four, roughly (粗略地) calculates that a litre of water cost around 20p to produce.

Environmentalists state that half the world’s population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080. One in five is said to lack access to safe drinking.

The Water Mill is not effective in areas where the amount of water contained in the air is below about 30 percent, but in Britain that won’t be much of a problem.

49. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?

       A. Drinking water. B. Invention.  C. Microwave.       D. Water Mill.
