A drught is a perid f time when an area r regin experiences belw-nrmal rainfall. The lack f enugh rainfall, either rain r snw, can cause reduced sil wetness r grundwater, diminished steam lw (减少的水流), crp lss, and a general water shrtage. Drughts are the secnd-mst cstly weather events after hurricanes.
The early effects f a drught maybe difficult t identify right away, s it may take weeks r mnths t determine that a drught has started. The end f a drught is hard t identify fr the same reasn. A drught may last fr weeks, mnths, r even years. Smetimes, drught cnditins can exist fr ten years r mre in a regin. The lnger a drught lasts, the greater the harmful effects it has n peple.
Drughts affect peple in several ways. Clean drinking water is significant fr all life, and surces f water may narrw during a drught. Withut the presence f water, peple must bring in enugh water frm elsewhere t survive. Water is als needed fr crps t grw. When nt enugh rainfalls t naturally water crps, they must be watered by irrigatin (灌溉). Irrigatin is pssible nly when there is enugh water in nearby rivers, lakes, r streams, r frm grundwater. During a drught, these water surces are diminished and may even dry up, preventing crps frm being irrigated and causing them t die ff.
One persn studying these prblems is Alexandra Custeau, a Natinal Gegraphic Emerging Explrer whse latest plan is Blue Legacy. She started Blue Legacy t raise awareness that we live n a water planet and must take care f it. Custeau, the granddaughter f the well-knwn cean explrer Jacques Custeau, believes that water will be a key issue in this century. She predicts that water prblems such as drught, strms, flds, and degraded water quality will create “water refugees”, peple mving in search f water. Custeau stresses that we must d all we can t prtect Earth’s valuable freshwater resurces.
24. What is the functin f the first paragraph?
A. T intrduce what a drught is.B. T cmpare drughts with hurricanes.
C. T explain why a drught ccurs.D. T raise awareness f sme disasters.
25. Amng all disasters, what is special abut drughts?
A. They cause the greatest harms.B. They are hard t spt in n time.
C. They usually end fr n reasn.D. They influence peple’s living.
26. What des the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Crps cannt grw withut water.
B Irrigatin is impssible during a drught.
C. There are many ways t prevent drughts.
D. Drughts influence living and agriculture.
27. Why is “water refugees” mentined in the last paragraph?
