Australians have been warned they face a life or death decision over their water —— drink recycled sewage(污水) or die.

     With the drought(干旱) continuing, the country is set to be forced to use purified waste water for drinking, even if there is great opposition to the measure

Queensland has become the first state to introduce the policy after a warning from its premier.

“I think in the end, because of the drought, all of Australia is going to end up drinking recycled purified water,” said former Premier Peter Beattie. “These are difficult decisions, but you either drink water or you die. There’s no choice. It's liquid gold; it a matter of life and death.”    

     Beattie said Australia's second largest state would become the first to use recycled water for drinking.

     Water is recycled in Britain and parts of northern Europe along with the US and Israel.

     But Australians have never liked the idea.

To try to change the way Australians think, John Howard  and  Environment Minister Malcolm Turnbull have Supported Queensland’s move.

“I am very strongly for recycling and Mr Beattie is right and I agree with him completely,” Howard said.

“Australian cities, all now facing water shortages because of the worst drought on record, must start to use recycled water,” added Turnbull. “All of our big cities have to widen the range of water sources to include sources which are not dependent on rainfall.”

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. Australians face the choice of life and death.

  B. Continuing drought forces Australians to drink recycled sewage.

C. Mr Beattie is worried about his people’s health.

D. We should avoid drinking recycled water to keep healthy.

2.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. The drought is the worst one in the droughts recorded in Australian history.

B. Australia’s largest state has become the first state to introduce the policy.

C. No other countries but Australia decides to drink recycled water.

D. Nobody disagrees to the idea of drinking recycled purified water.

3.It can be inferred from what Peter Beattie said that_________.

   A. he gives orders to drink purified waste water.

B. if the decision is made, people won't survive the drought

C. it is painful for him to see his people drink recycled sewage

It’s not the first movie to show the end of the world. But in the latest box office hit 2012 it is neither aliens nor a killer disease that threaten the human race, but climate change.

     Some say the film lacks good dialogue and its science is questionable, others believe German director Roland Emmerich makes up for these flaws in special effects. An earthquake destroys the White House and Yellow stone  National Park ends up in flames.

     Emmerich borrows from the old Mayan(玛雅人的) story which says, that the world will end in 2012.He is being criticized for fuelling Internet rumors(传闻) about doomsday(世界末日)

     “There is no factual basis for these claims,’’ NASA said on its website. “Credible(可信赖的) scientists worldwide know of no threat connected with 2012,’’ it insisted. “After all, our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, ” they added.

According to the UK’s Daily Telegraph, it was first thought that the disaster would happen in May 2003. When the world continued, supporters picked the last day of the Mayan calendar.

     “Every culture has a myth(传说) of destruction(毁灭), just as they have a myth of creation. These myths |of destruction tend to surface(重新出现) during times of crisis(危机), ” Michael A. Ryan, an assistant profess of history,speaking to Purdue University News. Ryan studies apocalyptic(像世界末日的) themes from the Middle Ages at the US university. “Today’s current economic climate is a state of crisis for many people who are worried whether they can afford to feed themselves,”he added.

2.What does the underlined word “fuelling’’ in the third paragraph refer to?

   A. Making sth. stronger..    B. Putting gas into a car.

   C. Producing power or heat.  D.Burning

3.Which of the following statements about the film 2012 is TRUE according to the text?

   A.A big fire destroys Yellow-stone National Park.

   B.All scientists in the world know of no threat connected with 2012.

   C.  The old Mayan story says that the world will end in

D.Every culture has a myth of destruction rather than creation

4.Why do the rumors about doomsday come about now and then?

   A.Because during times of crisis, people tend to worry about their future.
