M: Rebecca, speaking of environmental stuff, I was reading about a drought in Australia. You guys have a serious drought problem with water?
W: Yeah, we do. We’ve had a drought for some time now and it seems to be getting worse and worse each year.
M: Well, how about this moment? Do you experience difficulties due to the lack of water?
W: Well, we actually have restrictions on water now. You can’t water your garden at all, but my mom loves gardening.
M: Then what do you do to keep your mom’s garden? It’s pretty hard, right?
W: Yeah,(13)my dad actually has fitted a special tube into the washing machine which filters the water out into a bucket outside and she can use that grey water to water all her plants.
M: That’s fantastic. It’s really a good way to make full use of the water.
W: Actually,(14)her garden is doing better with the grey water than normal water, especially grass. Maybe they really love those dirt nutrients from the clothes.
M: That’s interesting. But has the government done anything, such as raising water prices or limiting how much water you can use per month?
W: There’s a certain limit on water and the water prices are quite high now.
M: So, basically, everybody in Australia just has to hope that there will be more rain in the future?
W: Yeah. I think the problem is that(15)it needs to rain into the basins where we can catch the water; if it doesn’t, the water will just run off because the ground’s so dry.
13. How does the woman’s mom water her garden?
14. How are the plants in the garden now?
15. What does the woman say about the rain in Australia?
选项
A、The distribution of precipitation is uneven.
B、Only the rainwater in basins can be used.
C、Underground rivers can hold most of the rainwater.
D、Most of the rainwater evaporates because of the dry weather.
答案
B
解析
女士说只有雨水降到低洼地里才可以缓解用水之急,如果雨水不能降到低洼地里,是不能缓解旱情的,因为地面太干,雨水都流走了。由此推断,只有下到低洼地里的雨水才可以被利用,才能解决干旱问题。
