           Many places in the world need more fresh water. Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water
    into fresh. Why aren't there many factories like the Symi factory?
            In some places, the sun is not hot enough. Or it does not shine every day. In such places, other ways of
    heating sea water can be used. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling sea
    water with high heat, a lot of fresh water can be made quickly.
            But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried. One way is
    freezing. The fresh part of salt water freezes (冷至结冰) first. To get fresh water, the bits of ice are taken out. 
            Which way is the best? The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way
    for each place.
            Symi's way seems very good for small, hot places. It doesn't make very much water at a time. But the
    factory is easy to build and costs little. That is why people in many dry places talk about Symi!

    1. From the passage we know that fresh water ________.
    [     ]
    A. is needed in every country
    B. can be found in many factories
    C. can be used in many ways

    [     ]
    A. is a fresh water-making factory
    B. can be built everywhere
    C. can make much fresh water at a time
    D. does not need sunshine every day
    4. Which is the best way for small and hot places to get fresh water?
    [     ]
    A. Boiling or heating the sea water.
    B. The way in hotter and drier places.
    C. The Symi's way
    D. Freezing the sea water in cold places.
    5. Why aren't there many factories like the Symi factory?
    [     ]
    A. Because mny new ways are tried to get fresh in small, hot places.
    B. Because a lot of water can be made quickly by heating in any places.
    C. Because people think that the best way is to get more fresh water with the least money.
    D. Because the Symi's way does not work in dry places.
