         For a long time, a boy wondered why his next-desk classmate was always the first in the class,
    while he could only rank (排名) the 21st. At home, he asked his mom, " Am I more stupid than other
    kids? How come I always fall behind?I can't come up with an answer. " Mom knew that her son's
    self-respect (自尊心) had been hurt by the ranking system, but she didn't know what to say to help.
        She had really wanted to say that intelligence (智力) differs and that yes, her son's friend was really
    a smarter boy. But that would make her son lose heart. So she didn't say it.
        Her son and his friend went on to a high school that year. Although her son tried as hard as he could,
    his friend still left him behind. But she was proud of her boy for his hard work. It was around this time
    she decided to take him on a trip to the seaside. On the trip, she at last found an answer for him.
    Today her son no longer cares about rankings. He doesn't have to, for he himself is now at the top of the
    class in a university. When invited to his old high school, he mentioned a valuable childhood experience:
    Once on a trip to the sea, my mother and I were lying on the beach. She pointed to the sea and said to
    me: Do you see seabirds fighting for food out there?When a wave (海浪) comes near, the little birds
    rise quickly. The "clumsy"  seagulls (海鸥) are far less quick and have to tried hard to get away from the
    wave. But they prove to have the biggest, strongest wings,which open the widest and allow the bird to
    travel the furthest. When the season changes, they leave for foreign shores, leaving the little birds behind.
    Son, I have feeling that you are one of those seagulls. "

           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.
