39、 Most of the worlds water is salty ocean water or frozen polar ice. By 2050, the worlds population could grow from 6.7 billion to more than 9 billion. All of those people will need water to drink. But the bad news is that some areas of the world are growing drier because of climate change. The total

40、 area of the Earths surface classified(划分) as very dry has doubled since the 1970s. Sadly, the precious resource is still misused in industry, in farming and at homes. Therefore, the world is facing a crisis over water. “You do the math, and it gets a little scary,” says Stuart Minchin, a water expe

41、rt in Australia. “Were waking up,” he says. “But not fast enough.” In southern Australia, farmers have been hit hard. They cant irrigate(灌溉) their fields well enough.

Areas with a water crisisDEveryday rubbish could provide a valuable source of energy thanks to a clever new invention Smelly methane (沼气) gas expelled from landfill sites containing tons of rotting household waste could be used to produce a valua

48、ble energy resource. In Europe alone landfill tips can produce 94 billion cubic meters of methane per year but currently only one percent of what could be a valuable source of energy is used; the rest is burnt off to prevent an explosive build-up of gas. Methane gas forms when organic matter breaks

49、down and is drawn off from large rubbish tips by pipes sunk into the middle of the waste. Until now this process wasnt possible on small sites because the pipes allowed oxygen to seep (渗入) in and that stopped the breakdown process. Viktor Popov of the Wessex Institute of Technology has now developed

50、 a system to modify existing landfill sties by making them airtight while the methane is extracted from sunken wells. The site is covered by a special three-layered skin whose two outer layers are made of clay with a pressurized layer of carbon dioxide gas in the middle. As the methane is sucked out

51、 through a central well it is replaced by carbon dioxide from the middle layer rather than oxygen, allowing the breakdown process to continue. Unfortunately there are no plans to use the power of methane even though Popov claims his invention could provide a valuable source of energy over the next 2

52、0 years. 61. The passage mainly introduces _ to us. A. how to make methane B. a new way to make use of rubbish C. the valuable things in rubbish D. the amount of rubbish being reused 62.

54、g statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Oxygen can cause the breakdown process to stop. B. When the methane is sucked out, oxygen will enter from the middle layer. C. Carbon dioxide doesnt affect the breakdown process. D. The new invention has not been put into use. 65. According to th

55、e passage, what is the publics attitude towards the use of methane power? A. Favorable. B. Unfavorable. C. Responsive. D. Indifferent. 四. 阅读表达（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）Many American youngsters earn their own allowance by doing temporary jobs for their neighbors. Babysitting is one of the mon of these jobs.
