解析
小题1: 词义和固定搭配。“supply”提供“get”得到 又因为be +adj+to do sth 所以此处应是be hard to do。。。做某事很困难。句意：在一些地方，水很难得到 故选C。
小题2: what作主语，谓语使用单数形式。此处应用三单形式。整篇文章为现在时，happen为不及物动词，无被动。句意：当一个小镇有这些问题时会发生什么？ 故选A。
小题3: 词义与词性辨析。A关键B回答，答案C回答D方式，上一句是一个问题what happens? 句意：一个加利福尼亚的小镇发现了一个令人愉快的答案。 Answer即可做动词，又可作名词。 故此处选B
小题4: 考察副词辨析和名词的单复数。A不多B少许C很少，几乎没有D少许，少数 AB均修饰不可数名词 CD修饰可数名词 “rain”雨，为不可数名词。 句意：那里下雨不多。 故选A
小题5: 考察关于代词的使用。 A它自己 B自己的C它D它是 句意：这个小镇没有自己的水源。故选B
小题6: 动词词义辨析。A去拿来B拿去C把…拿进来；带进来；收获（庄稼等）；赚（钱）D引导 句意：它使用的水是从30英里外的河里来的。 C在此处可引申为“水流过来” 故选C
小题7: 时态和词组辨析。句意：随着越来越多的人住在这个城镇里。 应用过去时态。 come to live in 过来居住 come for live in 为了居住而来， 表示一种目的，但文中并没有出现关于“目的”来居住，故选B
小题8: 形容词和上下文辨析。 Water水，为不可数名词。 前文提到“越来越多的人居住在这个城镇”所以此处句意应是：更多的水被需要。 故选C
小题9: 短语辨析。 AB have to do 不得不做某事 C must to do 必须做某事 need to do 需要做某事 Now表示现在时，故排除B 根据上下文句意：现在，水不得不从600英里以外取来。 故选A
小题10: 形容词辨析。 A,B,C,D均为许多，大量，不少 但water为不可数名词，而ABC均修饰可数名词。故选D
小题11: 动词和短语词义辨析。 A put a plan（不存在这个词组）B make a plan 制定计划C supply a plan 提供计划 D notice a plan 注意计划 句意：这个城镇制订了一个计划，故选B
小题12: 词义辨析。A一个方法B方法C一个答案D一个关键 句意：它发现了一个净化污水的方法。 “way”是可数名词，不能单独使用。故选A
小题13: 介词词义和短语辨析。A for many ways（不存在这个词组） B by many ways用许多方式C at many ways（不存在这个词组）D in many ways在许多方面 句意：被净化过的水被在许多方面重新使用。 故选D
小题14: 考察合成词。句意：5个人工湖被开凿。 “湖”是被“人”开凿的，所以make应用被动语态。故选C
小题15: 固定搭配。 go+doing 去。。。 go on+to do 继续做某事 go to..去某地 句意：人们到这里来钓鱼，划船。故选A
小题16: 词义和上下文辨析。A必须B可以C需要D不得不 根据上下文：他们可以在新的公园里野餐。故选B
小题17: 介词词义辨析。A当做B和C给，为了D表引出对象 句意：农民有更多的水给他们的谷物。 For表示把。。。给。。。，故选C
小题18: 考察名词短语的搭配和词义。 结构：enough+名词 句意：因为有足够多的水。故选B
小题19: 短语辨析。A throw off 摆脱 B throw of掷，抛出C throw away 丢弃，浪费 D throw out of 轰走，逐出 句意：水被使用，被浪费。故选C
小题20: 代词辨析。A 它是B 它的 C 某人的 D他的 句意：这个小镇拯救了它的水源，拯救水源也拯救了这个小镇。 故选B

Reading is also one of the things that will help you to speak English better. Read whenever you can and whatever you like! Read papers and Internet sites that you like in English every day. Then, you will see that the number of known words is increasing and you are able to speak with more skills. Then you will have made the foundations（基础）and a good basis of English. It is not good to stop and get stuck there.
Going to England or an English speaking country is a good choice, but many people cannot afford it. If you cannot go, reading and speaking with your friends will also help you to practice your English. However, I think that it is very good to visit some English speaking country to see and test your knowledge in everyday life. You will feel the everyday usage of the language in its natural environment. There your level of English is going to improve even faster. Your ability to speak English is better. Nothing can match the excitement and happiness when a native speaker tells you that your English is very good!
Finally, in order to speak English well, you must be persistent（坚持的）and do it every day. It is like playing the piano. Pianists play it every day and so should you. Include English in your life and you will see where it is going. Practice, practice! Read, write and improve your language skills and you are on your way when you will be able to speak it with more and more confidence!

Not long ago the movie 2012 came into screen. The people were threatened by those scenes of destroying flood, severe earthquake, terrifying hurricane and constructions representing human civilization being destroyed and even swallowed by disaster. Luckily, they are just the director" s imagination, but the present situation is not heading a positive direction, either.
Take my own experience in Alaska as an example. Once I took a trip to the glacier. Along the way there stood signposts marking the snow lines of different years. They started from the foot of the mountain, but it was at the top when I finally saw melting glaciers(融化的冰川). My heart ached seeing the beautiful blue ice melting at every second.
Sad but true, they are the effects of global warming and the result of our human impact. Furthermore, each year the rising sea level will kill 56 million people, and that’s about the population of the entire Italy. According to studies, if the temperature keeps on rising like this, by the year 2050, some islands and coastal cities including New York, Shanghai, Tokyo and Sydney will be drowned in water.
Our fortune is in our own hands. It depends on us to shape our future, to reduce future human impact and find ways to form a peaceful relationship with our environment. Therefore, it"s time for actions to be taken right now. Contribute a little to energy saving by using more efficient light bulbs and less hot water. Let recycle become our habit by thinking twice before throwing something away. Let us take public transportation as our first choice when going to a certain place. It might cost more time for now, but it" s to the benefit of a permanent future. Take care of every tree and grass around us by watering them or simply just avoid destroying them.
In a word, small drops of water make a big ocean. The earth does not belong to us. On the contrary, we belong to the earth. Please bear in mind that the earth is our home. It is our responsibility to build a brighter and better future of our planet and prevent what happened in the movie 2012 from becoming reality.

When you get in your car, you reach for it. When you"re at work, you take a break to have a moment alone with it. When you get into a lift, you play with it.
Cigarette? Cup of coffee? No, it"s the third most addictive thing in modem life, the cell phone. And experts say it is becoming more difficult for many people to curb their longing to hug it more tightly than most of their personal relationships.
The costs are becoming more and more evident, and I don"t mean just the monthly bill. Dr. Chris Knippers, a counselor at the Betty ford Center in Southern California, reports that the overuse of cell phones has become a social problem not much different from other harmful addictions: a barrier to one-on-one personal contact, and an escape from reality. Sounds extreme, but we" ve all witnessed the evidence: The person at a restaurant who talks on the phone through an entire meal, ignoring his kids around the table; the woman who talks on the phone in the car, ignoring her husband; the teen who texts messages all the way home from school, avoiding contact with kids all around him. Jim Williams, an industrial sociologist based in Massachusetts, notes that cell - phone addiction is part of a set of symptoms in a widening gulf of personal separation. He points to a study by Duke University researchers that found one-quarter of Americans say they have no one to discuss their most important personal business with. Despite the growing use of phones, e - mail and instant messaging, in other words, Williams says studies show that we don"t have as many friends as our parents. " Just as more information has led to less wisdom, more acquaintances via the Internet and cell phones have produced fewer friends," he says.
If the cell phone has truly had these effects, it"s because it has become very widespread. Consider that in 1987, there were only l million cell phones in use. Today, something like 300 million Americans carry them. They far outnumber wired phones in the United States.

Death Valley is a land of beautiful yet dangerous extremes. Death Valley can be dangerously cold during the winter months. Storms in the mountains can produce sudden flooding on the floor of the Valley.
The air temperature during the summer has been as high as fifty- seven degrees Celsius. The sun can heat the ground so that the temperature of the rocks and soil can be as high as seventy -four degrees Celsius.
Death Valley contains evidence of several ancient volcanoes that caused huge explosions. Evidence of one of these explosions is called Ubehebe Crater. The explosion left a huge hole in the ground almost a kilometer and a half wide. In many areas of Death Valley it is easy to see where the ground has been pushed up violently by movement deep in the Earth. This movement has created unusual and beautiful rock formations. Some are red. Others are dark brown, gray, yellow or black.
The area was named by a woman in 1849. Thousands of people from other parts of the ountry traveled to the gold mining areas in California. They were in a hurry to get there before other people did. One group trying to reach California decided to take a path called the Old Spanish Trail. By December they had reached Death Valley. They did not have to survive the terrible heat of summer, but there was still an extreme lack of water. There were few plants for their work animals to eat.
The people could not find a pass through the tall mountains to the west of the Valley, Slowly, they began co suffer from a lack of food. To survive, they killed their work animals for food and began to walk out of the Valley. As they left, one woman looked back and said, "Good -bye, death valley. ” The name has never been changed.
Almost everyone who visits Death Valley visits a huge house called Scotty" s Castle. The building design is Spanish, with high thick walls to provide protection from the fierce heat.
The castle is named for Walter Scott , called Scotty. by his friends. He was a gold miner. He told everyone that he built the house with money he made from his gold mine. Many people believed him. But it was not really the truth.
