    AVERAGE RESOURCES
    620 m3 water
    		If we put fresh water and sea water together, we can each have 620 m3 water. But remember, sea water is too salty for us to drink if the factories don’t process it first. So, 620 m3 is little. Saving water in daily use is important.
    0.5 hectares of forests
    		There are 3.869 billion hectares(公顷) of forests on Earth. But we are losing them mainly because we cut trees too much. If we calculate（计算）at the size of a football field, we are losing 343,000 football fields every day, or 1,431 per hour, or 24 per minute!
    1.5 centimeters long corals(珊瑚)
    		All the corals that we have now spread for about 100,000 km in 109 countries. But each of us can only have such a little piece, because seas are getting polluted and corals are dying.
    33 stars
    		According to the latest report, there are 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. Each of us can have 33 of them. Unfortunately, we cannot see most of the 200 billion stars from Earth. We can only see about 6,000 stars. If we don’t use telescopes or we have bad weathers, we can only see about 2,000 stars.
    90kg rice
    		On average, we harvest 0.54 billion tons of rice each year round the world and each of us can have 90 kg. Asia produces and eats 90% of all the rice. How long will it take you to eat up this 90 kg rice?
    1 iceberg
    		Luckily, we still have icebergs to share when Earth gets warmer and warmer. Each of us can have an iceberg of 170m×170m×170m. Up to 10% of Earth surface is covered by ice. There is 31,000,000km3 of ice on Earth in all.
    小题1:On average we each probably have ________ fresh water in the world.
    A．over 620m3B．more than 620m3C．far less than 620m3D．only 620m3
    小题2:We are losing the forests on Earth mainly because of________.
    A．the man-made damageB．the climate change
    C．the construction of many football fieldsD．the environmental pollution
    小题3:When we don’t use telescopes or the weather is bad, we can see ________ stars from Earth.
    A．all the stars B．about 2,000C．about 200 billionD．about 6,000
    小题4:According to the table above, we each can only have _____ because of pollution.
    A．less water B．fewer icebergs C．fewer corals D．less rice

    小题1:C
    小题2:A
    小题3:B
    小题4:C
    本文是关于人均资源的，解释原因并提醒我们要珍惜环境。
    小题1:细节题。第一格sea water is too salty for us to drink if the factories don’t process it first. So, 620 m3 is little. 可知我们实际可用的淡水非常少。
    小题2:细节题。第二格中的because we cut trees too much。可知森林减少是因为我们砍树，属于人为的破坏。
    小题3:细节题。第四格中的we can only see about 2,000 stars.
    小题4:细节题。根据第三格because seas are getting polluted and corals are dying.可知答案为C。

    Bicycle Safety
    Operation  Always ride your bike in a safe, controlled manner on campus(校园). Obey rules and regulations. Watch out for walkers and other bicyclists, and always use your lights in dark conditions.
    Theft Prevention  Always securely lock your bicycle to a bicycle rack---even if you are only away for a minute. Register your bike with the University Department of Public Safety. It’s fast, easy, and free. Registration permanently records your serial number, which is useful in the possible recovery of the bike stolen.
    Equipment
    Brakes  Make sure that they are in good working order and adjusted properly.
    Helmet  A necessity, make sure your helmet meets current safety standards and fit properly.
    Lights  Always have a front headlight---visible at least 500 feet in front of the bike. A taillight is a good idea.
