The First Americans
There was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and North America. The first settlers in North America crossed this land bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska. The people who made this initial(最初的) crossing were probably following the animals they used for food. Eventually, the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared. The settlers, who I shall call the “First Americans”， could not return to their homeland. _小題1:__
For the next few thousand years, the First Americans migrated（遷徙） south and east throughout North and South America. They made the journey all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, a distance of more than 10, 000 miles. __小題2:__In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans became hunters of the ocean.  __小題3:__ In the brief summer，they gathered berries and other plants. In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the time preparing for the next summer. It was a hard life，but they learned to survive in these harsh conditions.
Farther south, in what is now Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers(懸崖居民). They began by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs.__小題4:__ The dwellings(住處) they constructed in many ways resembled today's apartment buildings.__小題5:__ They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use water almost any time of the year. They were so successful that they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally in the desert. In Mexico and South America, the First Americans founded civilizations that were among the greatest in the world. They built huge pyramids, lived in fabulous cities, and made great advances in science and mathematics long before the Europeans arrived.

A．They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes.

B．Along the way，they established（建立） many different civilizations.

C．The First Americans of the Southwest learned to irrigate（灌溉） the desert.

D．They would have to survive in the New World they had discovered.

E. They built boats of animal skins and hunted or fished for their food.
F. People living near each other tended to share similar environments and customs.
G. They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures of wood and stone.

The water we drink and use was running short. We all have to learn what to stop wasting water.
One of the step that we should take is to find ways of reusing it. Today in the most large cities, fresh water is used only once and then it runs in waste system. But that is possible to pipe the used water to a purifying factory, there the used water can be treated with chemical materials by the workers so that it can reused. But even if every large city purified and reused it's water, we still would have enough water.

Dear Sir,
I have to travel every day from So UK Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route: No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full.   小題1:   
The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the airport every ten minutes.
  小題2:   The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting.    小題3:  
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport.   小題4: There were 129 of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed: 50mph.” 小題5:  
Saturday morning a No. 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 mph. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this?

A．I counted the other passengers as they got off.

B．Is there anything we can do to change this?

C．The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip.

D．The distance from So UK Road to the airport is 10 miles.

E. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
G. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?
