七.阅读表达(共5小题，计10分)
阅读短文，根据要求完成下面各个小题。
The world is not hungry，but it is thirsty.It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of(短缺)water.Why?Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can't drink or use for watering plants directly(直接地).Man can only drink and use the 3% of the water that comes from rivers and lakes.And we can't even use all of that，because some of it has been polluted(污染).
Now more water is needed.The problem is：Can we avoid(避免)a serious water shortage later on?Firstly，we should all learn how to save water.Secondly，we should find out the ways to reuse it.Scientists have always been making study in this field.Today，in most large cities，water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers.But it can be used again.Even if(即使)every large city reused its water，still there would not be enough.What could people turn to next?
The sea seems to have the best answer.There is a lot of water in the sea.All that needs to be done is to get the salt(盐)out of the sea water.This is expensive，but it's already in use in many parts of the world.Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way to do it.So you see，if we can find a way out，we'll be in no danger of drying up.

(一)A possible version:
Think before you search online
Some students now have a new use for the Internet-helping them with their homework. But different people have different ideas about it.
Some students agree with it. They sometimes don’t know the answers to the problems, so they have to turn to the Internet. They think they can learn from other people. At the same time , it’s easy and it saves time.
However, not all the students welcome this. Many students think simply copying the answers won’t improve their abilities and it may make students stop thinking .
I think students should first think over the problems by themselves. If we use the Internet proberbly, it could be a good way to study.
