“Time flies.Youth fades.Treasure each moment of your life，” accompanied by
guitar and drums, the Band for One, made up of five people, sang the lyrics (歌词)
soulfully during a performance in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, on November 7，
2020.
Behind the band, there was a picture of a young man named Philip Hancock shown on
the screen.And he is the reason why they were all there.Hancock was a 27－year－
old Australian who taught English in Chongqing.When he died in 2018 due to a
disease, his parents followed his wishes and donated his organs.
The five people introduced themselves onstage.They are the ones who received
Philip’s organs.“Last November, the Red Cross officials told me Philip’s parents
mentioned during an earlier memorial service that he loved music and dreamed of
having his own band one day，” said Chen Xianjun, a recipient (接受者)．Chen was
instantly on board to form a band in memory of Philip, and so were the other four
recipients.
Since they had no music experience, they had to start__from__scratch．From learning
the guitar, to mastering the maracas and taking on the drums, they took time out of
their busy lives to practice over the past year.Peter Hancock, Philip’s father, said after
watching the band’s performance, his biggest wish is for the five to enjoy their lives
more.
Organ donation is not only the best way to honor a loved one, but also a remarkable
way to save the lives of others.China faces a serious shortage of organs, with about
300，000 people waiting for organ transplant surgeries each year.But the good news
is, more and more people have been signing up to be organ donors, showing the
spirit of selflessness that Philip and so many others have shown.1. Why did the five people form the band?

B．To show their respect for Peter Hancock.

US and Canadian researchers recently calculated the total amount of the world’s
groundwater and estimated that it is equal to a lake 180 metres deep covering the
entire Earth.This makes groundwater the largest active freshwater resource on the
planet.The team also investigated its age.How did they do this?
Humans introduced a convenient time signature on the Earth when we started testing
atomic (原子的) weapons.This leaves a time stamp which can be found in water,
rocks and living organisms.By seeing if radioactivity (放射性) from atomic bomb
testing was present in the groundwater, the researchers could estimate that about 6%
of this groundwater is younger than 50 years old.If this water was spread evenly over
the continents ， then there would be just three metres in depth of“modern”groundwater spread equally over the continents.
It could be argued that if we use only this “modern” groundwater, then this is
sustainable, as we know that it has been replaced ( or recharged ) by natural processes
over the last 50 years.But how quickly groundwater recharges changes over time.
Water has to reach the inside of rocks, either now or in the past.This means that the
amount of rainfall has to be more than the amount of water evaporating (蒸发) from
the land surface，and more than the amount of water used by all the plants.When this
occurs, freshwater can recharge the groundwater either from water “leaking” from the
beds of rivers or from rainwater that passes through the soil.
In many parts of the world we know that groundwater recharge varies due to natural
climate variability such as El Nino.Groundwater recharge will also change with global
warming.
5．In order to know the age of groundwater, we can ________．
A．find its time stamp
B．test atomic weapons
C．examine its freshness
D．spread groundwater equally
6．What do people think of the supply of “modern” groundwater?
A．It’s fresh. B．It’s limited.
C．It’s vital. D．It’s sufficient.
7．What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A．Water evaporating.
B．Water leaking from river beds.
C．Water getting into rocks.
D．Water being used by all the plants.
8．What are the last three paragraphs mainly talking about?
A．Climate variability.
B．Global warming.
C．Groundwater exploration.
D．Groundwater sustainability.Ⅱ.完形填空
