But about 97% of that is sea water,or salt(盐) water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—the fresh water from rivers,lakes,underground, and other sources (来源). And we cannot even use all of that. Even worse, some ofit has been made dirty.However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly—almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world-wide water shortage(缺少) late on.We all have to learn how to stop wasting our water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer(下水道) system. From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places.But even if(即使) large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove(去除) the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用T表示，不符合的用F表示1. About seven-tenths of the surface of our earth is covered with water.2. Some of our water sources for use have been polluted.3. There is a serious world-wide water shortage now. .4. The word "reuse" means "use only once".5. Water is wasted in most large cities.6. To remove the salt in sea water is a good solution to water shortage.(B)Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers(扬声器) and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.Adult(成年人) rivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, and the life of American people. Most of the radio programs are music.Popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once (一旦) the popular singer is heard all over the country; young people buy his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes returns to the singer. Wherever the singer goes,all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk(民间) music. It tells stories about the common( = ordinary) life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys(牛仔) who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western on country music.根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案，用A、B、C或D表示(共7分)1.
