California has been dealing with the effects of drought for more than two years. The state governor has ordered a mandatory reduction of water usage to prevent waste. The state is also looking into new technologies that will make California more drought resistant. The executive order issued by the governor on Wednesday requires the State Water Resources Control Board to reduce water by 25 percent across California. Governor Brown said 38 million people will be affected. The measure is expected to save hundreds of thousands of liters of water over nine months. The mandatory water rationing is unprecedented in the United States, and some Californians are against it, saying that water saving should be voluntary. But previous measures to fight a persistent drought have not improved the situation. The governor warned residents to be prepared to change their lifestyle.
Questions 1 and 2 are based on the news report you have just heard.
1. What is the news report mainly about?
2. How many people will be affected in California according to Governor Brown?
选项
A、The terrible effects of drought on California.
