《水》
        科学证明，人一星期不吃东西还能存活，而缺了水却不能生存。禾苗、花草、树木没有水的滋润，就要枯萎，动物离开了水，就会灭亡。所以无论是生活用水、生产用水、农田灌溉，水都与我们的生活息息相关。
　　地球上的水源似乎取之不尽，但是你知道吗，地球上的水虽然很多，据估计水的总体积约为13.8亿立方公里。但是十分可惜，这些水98%是咸水，主要分布在海洋中。淡水只占地球水总量的2%，而这2%的淡水也不能全为人类所饮用，因为它的88%被冻在两极的冰帽和冰川里，剩下的12%即河流、湖泊和能开采的浅层地下水才可为人类饮用，其中绝大多数又为地下水，不能开采不能饮用，可直接饮用的河流湖泊中的水，只占淡水总量的0.04%。
　　地球上的水，总是处在变化之中，海洋和陆地上的水蒸发到大气中，再形成雨或雪落回大地，滋养万物，补充河流、湖泊或注入大海。水还会渗入地下，汇入地下蓄水层。极深的地下水不能补充，也不能开采，被称为原生水，因为不能再生。正因为水资源的这种流动性质，因而形成陆地的水涝或干旱，造成水资源分布不均衡。所以，地球上可供我们饮用的水资源非常非常少，大家可一定要珍惜每一滴水！

1）关于可以直接饮用的水，下面哪项正确？
    A 资源很丰富
    B  只占总体水资源的小部分
    C  河流湖泊中有很多
    D  地球上的淡水都能饮用

2）根据这段话，“原生水”是什么意思？
   A  蒸发到大气中的水
   B  雨水
  C  地下深层的水
   D  可以再生的水

3）根据短文，为什么会有水涝或干旱？
    A  水是流动的
    B  有的地方不会下雨
    C  有的地方离海很远
    D  水向低处流

4）根据短文，可以知道什么？
    A  水资源会越来越多
    B  水是不变的
    C  水资源很平均
    D  没有水就没有生命

غَالِبًا السوشال ميديا بْتِعْرِض أَشْيَاء مْفَلْتَرَة مِن الحَيَاة, لأنو الناس بِيشَارْكُوا الأَحْدَاث المُهِمِّة بَس.
وهَاد الشِي بْيِعْكِس صُورَة مِثَالِيِّة لحَيَاة بَعْض النَاس اللي هي عَكْس الصُورَة الحَقِيقِية.
بَس كَمَان هَالشِي بِسَبِّب ضَغْط عَالِي على هَدُول الأَشْخَاص لأنو لازم يِطْلَعُوا دَائِمًا بِصُورَة مِثَالِيِّة.
بِالمُقَابِل, فِي أَشْخَاص تَانِيين بِيقَارْنُوا حَيَاتْهُم مَع حَيَاة هَدُول الأَشْخَاص. 
بَس لِلْأَسَف هَي المُقَارَنِة ممكن تْأَدِّي للشُعُور بِالإِكْتِئَاب.
لازم نِتْزَكَّر دَائِمًا إِنُّو الأشياء اللي مِنْشُوفْهَا على السوشال ميديا ما بِتْكُون الصُورَة الكَامْلِة, وكِل إِنْسَان عِنْدُو مَشَاكِل بِالحَيَاة والحَيَاة المَثَالِيِّة مَا مَوجُودِة!
Mostly social media shows filtered things from life, because people share only the important events.
And this reflects a perfect image of the life of some people which is the opposite of the real image.
But also this thing causes high pressure on these people because they always have to appear in a perfect image.
In contrast, there are other people who compare their life with the life of those people.
But unfortunately, this comparison can lead to the feeling of depression.
We should always remember that the things that we see on social media are not the full picture, and every human has problems in life, and the perfect life does not exist.

What's important to you when choosing somewhere to live? Is it cheap rent, access to cultural activities, or great transport and education systems?

You may already know that that word "inform" means to tell someone something. To give information to someone. For instance, "thanks for informing me about the change of venue". What you might not know is that it can also be used to mean "influence something" as in "my work is informed by years of experience" Or maybe "the decisions that we make are always informed by our company culture. So what do you think, have you ever heard this usage?
