It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They cant get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is on April 22. But on all the other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource on the Earth. Water covers about 75% of the Earths surface. But most of that is sea water. We cant use it for many things. Fresh water covers only less than 1% of the Earths surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isnt as hard as Napogas. But that doesnt mean you dont have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution Lots of kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes and seas dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fishes are dying out.

How would you feel about taking time once a week to read aloud to a dog.Each dog in a reading program experiences a special training session. The trainers also receive training; they learn how to interact(互动)with the students and the dogs. Each program has high standards. There have been many studies of the interactions between humans and dogs that show dogs lower peoples blood pressure and heart rate. People become more relaxed and calmer and will completely forget what they are scared of when they have a dog nearby.Unlike at school, where students sit at desks or tables, students and dogs sit together on special reading mats. Some students lie next to the dogs. Each student reads to one dog, so there is a quiet din of voices in the room. The dog has been taught a command to pay attention to the reader. So when the trainer says something to the dog, it focuses on the student at once. But sometimes, the students read the dogs to sleep!The dogs trainer is also present. He or she watches the dog carefully to make sure that the dog behaves. Sometimes, the trainer gives the dog a break when the dog becomes restless. While the trainer doesnt help with the reading, the trainer talks to the student about the dog and explains how to take care of pets and how to be safe around animals.Students who read to dogs show the benefits of this interaction. They are calmer and can avoid worrying about getting all the words correct. The dog just wants to hear the story. As students learn more about the dogs they read to, they also learn that they have gained a new friend.Not only do students change their reading habits with the dogs during the program, but they also change their school habits. Their reading skills increase by twelve to twenty percent. They start raising their hands and answering questions more often. They pay more attention in class. Some students start arriving at school earlier and are absent less often.Dogs are not just for playing fetch with anymore. Now they can help people become better readers. Next time you visit your local library, be on the lookout for four-legged creatures (生物) who want to hear a good story.（1）The underlined word “command” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_”.A . lessonB . orderC . languageD . rule（2）From the passage, we can learn that this activity can _.A . help students be more helpful and cleverB . help increase reading speed by 8 percentC . make the trained dogs fall asleep quicklyD . make students be more active in school（3）The writer wants to tell us that _.A . the students can benefit from reading with dogsB . the dogs can be trained to understand the storyC . the students can be taught to train dogs wellD . the trainers help students to read correctly（4）What is the change when humans interact with dogs?A .
