China Youth says that more and more girl students have entered colleges to study in recent few years. As we know, once the number of boys was larger than that of girls, and the boys did much better than girls in our country for a long time. Now things have changed a lot.
In recent years, the proportion of girl students is growing fast. In 1998, about 39.7% of college students were girls. In 2000, it was 41.07% and in 2001, the number was 42.14%.
There are several reasons for this.
Firstly, there is little difference between boys and girls in their intelligence(智力). T hat’s to say, girls are as clever as boys. And boys have more interests than girls, so they may not do well in their study.
Secondly, girls are more careful and more sensible than boys. They work harder at school and they do better in all exams.
Another reason is that with the development of society, people pay more and more attention to girls' education.

A . boys are cleverer than girls

19. （8分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项 A、B、C、D中选出最佳选项。
D
Imagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there isn't enough for everyone. Your mother has to save the family's shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
Probably not. But that is what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. According to a report, the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, told the Times: "In a good week we'll have a water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for a day or two."
Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water truck. Private companies own the trucks. They travel around the city every day to sell water – at very high prices.
"A lot of people can't afford it," she said.
The average person in Yemen uses 100 to 200 cubic meters of water per year. That is far below the international water poverty line （贫困线）of 1,000 cubic meters.
The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.
（1）The underlined word "that" in Paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A . buying water from shops
B . drinking dirty water
C . suffering from water shortage
D . washing clothes with used water
（2）Hannan described _________.
A . what her life is like
B . how beautiful Lahej is
C . how people use water fully
D . how heavy the traffic in Lahej is
（3）which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?
A . How to make use of Seawater
B . How to save water
C . Yemen is Facing Serious Water shortage
D . How people use Water Fully
（4）We can infer (推断) from the text that _________.
A . Sana will run out of water in 10 years
B . Hannan is a teenager from a rich family
C . the capital of Yemen is developing fast
D . private companies make a lot of money
