　　use every day is groundwater.Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers.It comes from underground.The more roads and parking lots we pave

　　Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more

　　rainfall

　　Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference，too.In the United States，a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live，but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.

　　You can take steps to save water in your home.To start with，use the same glass for your drinking water all day.Wash it only once a day.Run your dishwasher (洗碗机) only when it is full.Help your parents fix any leaks in your home.You can g batteries instead of throwing them away.

　　【语篇导读】　本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了人类活动对淡水供应产生的影响以及我们应该如何应对水资源短缺的问题。

　　A.Using river water.

　　B.Throwing batteries away.

　　C.Paving parking lots.

　　D.Throwing rubbish into lakes.

　　解析　细节理解题。根据文章第一段倒数第二、三句“Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers.It comes from underground.”可知我们的地下水不是来自河水和湖水故排除A、D两项；根据最后一段最后一句“You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.”可推知扔掉废旧的电池会使我们的水变得不干净与题意不符故排除B项。答案C符合文意。
