58、er. Ks5uD Ks5uAbout 1 in 15 households drink bottled water today, spending about $ 4 billion a year on it. Although the reasons for the trend are many, bottled water's health benefits fall near the top of the list. Surveys have found that about 25 percent of bottled water drinkers choo

59、se the beverage for health and safety reasons; another quarter believe it is pure and free of contaminants（杂质）. Ks5uRegardless of its pristine image, bottled water is not necessarily any purer or more healthful than what flows right out of the tap.  Consider that the Food and Drug Administratio

60、n （FDA）, the bottled water industry watchdog, does not require that bottled water meet higher standards for quality, such as the maximum level of contaminants, than public water supplies regulated by the EPA. For the most part, the FDA simply follows EPA's regulatory lead. Granted, bottled water

61、 is often filtered（过滤）to remove chemicals such as chlorine that may impart a certain taste. But that doesn't make it any safer. In fact, about 25 to 40 percent of bottled water comes from the same municipal water supplies as tap water. Furthermore, some bottled waters do not contain any or enoug

Ks5uThis is not to say that bottled water is necessarily any better or worse, from a health standpoint, than tap water. It's certai

63、nly preferable to tap water for those who like its taste. The problem is that many consumers pay 300 to 1,200 times more per gallon for bottled water than for tap water because they think bottled water is the more healthful of the two.  Bottlers add to the confusion by sprinkling terms such as

64、"pure", "crystal pure" and "premium" on labels illustrated with pictures of glaciers, mountain streams, and waterfalls, even when the water inside comes from a public reservoir. However, the FDA has set forth regulations requiring clear labeling of bottled waters. The m

65、ini glossary（词汇）of bottled waters explains what some of the terms used on bottles really mean. Ks5u53.  What conclusion can we draw from the passage? Ks5uA. Most bottled water drinkers buy it for the taste. Ks5uB. Labels on bottled water are used to mislead consumers. Ks5uC. The FDA sets high s

66、tandards for bottled water. Ks5uD. Only wealthy people can afford bottled water. Ks5u54.  According to the passage, removing chlorine from water_ Ks5uA. does not make the water safer         B. is required by the FDA Ks5uC. makes the water less expensive&

67、#160;       D. is necessary for good health Ks5u55.  Whats the main idea of this passage? Ks5uA. Bottled water may be preferable to tap water in taste. Ks5uB. Bottled water is always safer to drink than tap water. Ks5uC. Consumers should consider carefully the reason for buying bottl
