（7.5 分）Did you watch your dog bury（埋） his favorite bone but dig it up only a day or two
later？There is actually a reason behind this—it's simply in their nature.For thousands of years，
dogs have buried their bones.
When dogs lived in the wild，sometimes food was hard to find.If they were able to find meat
and bones，dogs had to protect them.In order to keep other dogs and animals from finding their
meat，dogs would bury it in the ground.Even though most dogs have lots of food to eat today，their
instincts（本能） still tell them to bury their bones.Some dogs hide（藏） more than one bone at
a time.
A dog cannot bury a bone just anywhere.He must first find the perfect place.Often it's near a
tree or a large rock.Once the dog finds the perfect place，he uses his front feet to dig the hole，
drops the bone and covers up the hole to protect it.Dogs don't always remember where a bone is
buried，but they have a wonderful sense of smell.A dog can smell a bone even if it has been buried
for years.Most of the time，dogs find bones they have buried by themselves，but they can also find

bones buried by other dogs.

（7.5 分）In December 2021，people in Shenzhen found that water ran more slowly from their
taps.The government （政府） said the city was facing its most serious water shortage （短
缺） ever.
第 4 页 共 9 页
Some other cities in the southern part of China， like Chengdu and Guangzhou，are also
becoming "thirsty"，the Paper pared （相比） with northern areas，southern areas
have more rain and are close to more rivers and lakes.So why are they still short on water？
In big cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou，populations are growing fast.As a result，people
and factories need more and more water.Each person in Shenzhen has less than 200 cubic meters
of water each year.It's 1/12 of the country's average（平均水平）.According to the United Nations，
it is an "absolute water shortage" （极度缺水） when the number is below 500 cubic meters.
Climate change is making the water problem worse.For example，most cities in Guangdong
depend on （依赖于） the Dongjiang River as their main source （来源） of water.In 2021，the
river was reported to be drying up.Because of climate change， there's also less snow in the
mountains of Tibet.The snow has long been the source of water for many areas in China.Those
mountains might provide less water in the future.
There are other reasons for water shortages.For example，water pollution makes it harder to
get clean drinking water.Factories and farms don't use water efficiently （有效地）.Some cities
have enough rainfall，but don't have big lakes or reservoirs （水库） to store water.The water just
goes into the sea.
（21）What does the underlined word "thirsty" in Paragraph 2 refer to？
A．polluted cities
B．full of water
C．short of water
D．rainy cities
（22）According to the country's average，how much water should each person in Shenzhen
have every year？
A．Less than 200 cubic meters
B．About 1/12 cubic meters
C．Below 500 cubic metres
D．About 2400 cubic meters.
（23）What can we learn from Paragraph 4？
A．Climate change doesn't influence the water problem.
第 5 页 共 9 页
B．Climate change provides more water for the Dongjiang River.
C．The snow in the mountains of Tibet has provided water for many areas.
D．The mountains of Tibet will provide more water in the future.

A．The growing population in some big cities.
