        Everybody's house smells in some way.

        You almost never even notice the way your own place smells. You notice the way everyone else's place smells as soon as you walk in. There are their cats, and the soap, and the new furniture they just got. And those all add up to the way their house smells.

        But you can only smell your own house after you've been away for a while—like, a long while. Not just a workday, but like a week.

        It has to do with sensory adaptation (感觉适应). That's the scientific way to say that you just get used to it. And it's more pronounced for our sense of smell than for any other sense, like our hearing, for example.

        Researcher Pamela Dalton at the Monell Chemical Senses Center has done a lot of work on sensory adaptation. She and her team say that adaptation means you respond (做出反应) less when a stimulus (刺激物) is repeated. So when you're at home, the smell of your house is all around you. It never goes away. It's not just repeated—you're swimming in it. So you become adapted to the way it smells.

        The thing with smell, though, is that you adapt to smells really quickly. After "even a few breaths" of a smell, Dalton says, you begin to acclimate to it.

        You start to experience that smell as being less strong and finally take no note of it at all. That's why you can smell your friend's house when you walk in, but you don't really notice it all the time you're there.

        Being able to detect (探测) smells is important. It might warn you of danger, like an approaching (接近的) tiger or something gone bad in your drinks. Or it might mean something pleasant, like that fresh bread or the blooming flowers.

        Your nose can stay on the lookout for new smells that are dangerous or delicious.

        It might be a simple housekeeping thing, like a dishwasher in the kitchen or towels in the bathroom that needs to be cleaned.

        Then, if you still want to change the way your house smells, many things might do the trick, like a million candles, fresh fruits, or a bottle of perfume.

    (1)、From Paragraph 2 we know our         may not be part of our house smells.
    A、cats B、soap C、new sofa D、old chairs
    (2)、Pamela Dalton thinks        .
    A、when a stimulus is repeated, people respond more. B、when you're at home, the smell of your house never goes away. C、You don't really smell your friend's house all the time you're there. D、People are easy to adapt to smells quickly, even after a few breaths.
    (3)、Which of the following best explains "acclimate to" underlined in Paragraph 6?
    A、Get used to. B、Become interested in. C、Disagree with. D、Feel sick about.
    (4)、Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A、You can smell your own house after you've been away for a week or longer. B、When you're at home, you're swimming in the smell of your house. C、Smells can warn you of danger but can not mean something pleasant. D、Fresh fruits and perfume can help to change the way your house smells.
    (5)、What is the best title of the passage?
    A、How can you smell better? B、Why can't you smell your own house? C、Everyone needs smells at home. D、The ways of making new smell

        The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3%—the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.

        However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming larger and larger quickly—almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this way we can get away from a serious world wide water shortage(缺少) later on.

        We all have to learn how to stop wasting our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places.

        But even if every large city reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do to make use of sea water in the world is to remove the salt. If we take these steps we'll be in no danger of drying up.

    (1)、The world is thirsty for water because        .
    A、man hasn't got enough food to eat B、we haven't got enough fresh water C、only 70% of the earth's surface is water D、more water is sent into sewer systems
    (2)、The underlined word "valuable" means          .
    A、much and salty B、fresh and enough C、dear and useful D、clean and helpful
    (3)、What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water?

    (a)Make full use of the sea water.

    (b)Carry salt water into lakes or rivers.

    (c)Try to save the fresh water as much as possible.

    (d)Do our best to use the water again.

    (e)Drink and use all the water on the earth's surface.

    A、(c) and (e) B、(a) and (d) C、(a), (c) and (d) D、(b), (d) and (e)
    (4)、The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决) the water problem of the world is to        .
    A、remove the salt from sea water B、make the water in cities clean C、take water from underground D、make the need for water smaller
    (5)、What's the best title for this passage?
    A、The Importance of the Water B、The World's Water Problem C、The Thirsty World D、Fresh Water and Sea Water
