women with babies on their backs, buckets balanced on their heads, and in each hand a bright-blue plastic jug. on good days, they will wait less than an hour before a water tanker goes across the dirt path that serves as a road in kesum purbahari, a slum on the southern edge of new delhi. on bad days, when there is no electricity for the pumps, the tankers dont come at all. “that water kills people,” a young mother named shoba said one recent saturday morning, pointing to a row of pails filled with thick, caramel (焦糖)-colored liquid.“whoever drinks it will die.”the water was from a pipe shared by thousands of people in the poor neighborhood. women often use it to wash clothes and bathe their children, but nobody is desperate enough to drink it. there is no standard for how much water a person needs each day, but experts usually put the minimum at fifty litres. the government of india promises (but rarely provides) forty. most people drink two or three litresless than it takes to wash a toilet. the rest is typically used for cooking and bathing. americans consume between four hundred and six hundred litres of water each day, more than any other people on earth. most europeans use less than half that. the women of kesum purbahari each hoped to drag away a hundred litres that daytwo or three buckets worth. shoba has a husband and five children, and that much water doesnt go far in a family of seven, particularly when the temperature reaches a hundred and ten degrees before noon. she often makes up the difference with bottled water, which costs more than water delivered any other way. sometimes she just buys milk; its cheaper. like the poorest people everywhere, the people of new delhis slums spend a far greater percentage of their incomes on water than anyone lucky enough to live in a house connected to a system of pipes.1 the underlined word “slum” most likely means _. a. a village b. a small townc. an area of a town with badly-built, over-crowded buildingsd. the part of a town that lacks water badly2. sometimes the water tanker doesnt come because _. a. the weather is bad b. there is no electricity c. there is no water d. people dont want the dirty water3. a person needs at least _ litres of water a day. a. a hundred b. four hundred c. forty d. fifty4. which of the following statements is wrong? a. a hundred litres of water a day is enough for shobas family b. americans uses the largest amount of water each day c. in kesum purbahari milk is cheaper than bottled water d. shoba has a family of seven people5. the passage mainly tells us _. a. how women in kesum purbahari gets their water b. how much water a day a person deeds c. that india lacks water badly d. how india government manages to solve the problem of water【参考答案】15、cbdac【2015高考】阅读理解when someone meets a stranger with the same hobby，that person immediately becomes a friend.people enjoy the company of others who share a similar interest.often they

something better，faster or longer than anyone else in order to have their names included in the guinness book of world records.a lady in massachusetts may have the worlds easiest hobby：she lets her hair grow.diane witt has not cut her hair for twelve years.it is now eight feet(2.44 meters) long，and she will soon set a new world record and her name will be placed in the guinness book.a

human friends in new zealand will help it to get a little closer.the penguin is recovering well at wellington zoo，where it had a medical procedure on monday to wash out much of the beach sand it had swallowed apparently mistaking it for snow.it may need a few months to recover，but wildlife officials have been trying to figure out how the 3foottall bird will get home.transporting it to antarctica is nearimpossible in the southern winter，and there are fears that the penguin may have acquired infections in the warmer new zealand environment that could spread to other penguins.on wednesday，a group headed by the department of conservation decided officials will help the penguin get part of the way home by releasing it into the southern ocean，southeast of new zealandand letting it swim the rest of the way.“the reason for not returning the penguin directly to antarctica is that emperor penguins of this age are usually found north of antarctica on pack ice and in the open ocean，”the departments spokesman peter simpson said.the bird is estimated to be about two and a half years old，a juvenile(幼雏)in a species that reaches breeding age at around four or five.it will be released on the northern edge of the region where young emperor penguins are known to live.simpson said he was unsure how far the penguin would have to swim before reaching its final destination.the logistics for the trip havent been set and the penguin wont be released until it has recovered，which could be months.until then，it will remain at the zoo.the penguin drew intense interest after being spotted on north islands peka peka beach，about 2,000 miles(3,200 kilometers)from the antarctic coast.it was the first emperor penguin spotted in the wild in new zealand in 44 years.“the bird is isolated in an airconditioned room filled with large blocks of ice，”said zoo spokeswoman kate baker.【语篇解读】 这是一篇新闻报道。在新西兰的惠灵顿发现了一只年幼的帝企鹅，新西兰人决定等它身体康复了就把它放回南部的海域，然后让它自己游回南极洲。16what i
