Ⅱ.阅读理解

A

Year in year out, many high school graduates go to college to continue   their education and pursue (追求) their lifelong dreams. College has many   advantages for the later life.When I look back on the years I spent in college,   I don't regret even a bit. As a matter of fact, I believe they were the most   important years of my life.I came out of Saint Martin's College being a bright   graduate, ready to take charge of my life and pursue all my dreams with a clear   focus. Besides education, the kind of life I experience in college teaches me a   lot about life outside school.

There are many differences between my pre­college years and the post­college years. To start with, I grew up in the countryside, so I was not used to   talking with strangers. I was comfortable with my small world and could not   see its changing.However, all this changed the day I stepped into Saint Martin's   College.Though shy at first, I was amazed by my new surroundings; I met   and communicated with people from all over the world.I made friends with   students from other states and other countries. After four years in college, I was   inclined to embrace (拥抱) the world.I didn't mind working in Asia or Africa   for I was prepared.

College also prepared me well for employment, but I didn't even know   what to pursue when in high school.Later I pursued a degree in business and I am   working my way to being a CEO at the moment. The college really improved my chances   of getting a job and my earning potential(潜力)．

I want to encourage everyone out there to pursue a higher education. Anyway, higher education helps us increase knowledge about life; it provides us with an insight into various opportunities in life and thus makes one achieve his/her goals.

Mary Anyango, a young mother and health worker from Migori, Kenya, walks for about 20 minutes each way to get clean water from the river. Pregnant (怀孕的) with her third child, she must carefully keep her balance.The lack of clean water has threatened her young children's health.

In Oaxaca, Mexico, mother of two young children, Ramirez Negrete, takes a 40­minute walk each way to the neighbouring town to get water. Her eldest daughter dreams of becoming a doctor some day, and Negrete says that making sure her children are drinking clean water is one way to help them realize their dreams.

The lives of these two women are featured in the documentary (纪录片), The Power of Clean Water, produced by Procter & Gamble (P&G) and National Geographic and screened in Singapore on World Water Day. The documentary shows the power of clean water to move people, women especially, beyond basic survival.

Claude Zukowski, manager of P&G Children's Safe Drinking Water Program, said that the problem of lacking clean water affects 844 million people worldwide daily. This program provides their Singapore­produced Purifier of Water product for communities throughout the world.It has  delivered over 13 billion litres of clean water since 2004. The small P&G water purifier (净化器) can purify 10 litres of possibly deadly water in only 30 minutes, enough drinking water for a family of five for one day.

Jill Cress, chief marketing officer for National Geographic, said the documentary reflects the very real and powerful stories of people whose lives have been influenced by programs that provide access (途径) to clean drinking water. “At National Geographic, we believe that great storytelling can arouse curiosity and help solve big problems，” she said.
