20.Rivers are one of our most important natural resources (资源).Many of the world's great cities are located(坐落) on rivers,and almost every country has at least one river running through it that plays an important role in the lives of its people.
Since the beginning of the history,people have used rivers for transportation(运输).The longest one in the United States is the Mississippi.The lifeline of Egypt is the Nile.To the people of India,the Gangs is great,but it is also important for transportation; Ships can travel along it for a thousand miles.Other great rivers are the Congo in Africa and the Mekong in southeast Asia.The greatest of all for navigation (航海),however,is the Amazon in Brazil.It is so wide and so deep that large ships can go about two thousand miles upon it.
Besides transportation,rivers give food,water to drink,water for crops(庄稼),and chances for fun and entertainment for the people who live along their banks.In order to increase(增加) the supply of crops,engineers sometimes build a dam (大坝) across a river and let a lake from behind the dam.Then people can use the water not only to irrigate (灌溉) their fields but also to make electricity for their homes and industries.
However,large cities and industries that are located upon rivers often make problems.As the cities grow in size and industries increase in number,the water in the rivers becomes polluted with chemicals(化学物质) and other materials.People are learning the importance,however,of doing more to keep their rivers clean if they want to enjoy the benefits (利益) of this natural resource.

42.The greatest river for navigation isA.
A.the Amazon 
B.the Nile 
C.the Mekong
D.the Mississippi
43.From a dam,people can use the water forD.
A.keeping the rivers clean
B.only making electricity

A.people's drinking water too much
B.people's swimming in the river too much
C.chemicals and other materials
D.people's building a dam across a river

14.Are the lives of city kids the same as those in villages?In lots of ways,they are very different.But what are the differences?
Hu Peng and his four friends decided to find them out.Earlier this month,they went to live for a week at Huagui Village near Xishui.They went door to door there and asked kids there lots of questions.They wanted to learn more about village kids'everyday lives,so they asked questions like these:Do your parents teach you how to do housework?How much money do you usually spend on dinner?What would you do if a thief comes into your houses?They also asked 150city kids the same question.
On April 12,the team gave a report to their class.They told about lots of differences between children's lives in cities and those in villages.The biggest difference is independence.Hu's team say that more than 60percent of city kids can't do much housework,but more than 80percent of village kids can care for themselves.
City kids told Hu they cared about school a lot,and they had no time to wash clothes or make their beds.Village kids said they helped their parents with a lot:they cook,clean houses and feed farm animals.Hu's team also saw that village kids had less pocket money.Many never use computers.They play in rivers or on mountains.Some don't really like to make new friends.
Hu's team said their trip gave them more self-confidence(自信心)because they were doing something by themselves.But it also worried them a bit because they saw they still had a lot to learn."When we grow up,our parents can't take care of us,"Hu said."We have learnt to take care of ourselves."
