620 m3 water
If we put fresh water and sea water together, we can each have 620 m3 water. But remember, sea water is too salty for us to drink if the factories don’t process it first. So, 620 m3 is little. Saving water in daily use is important.
0.5 hectares of forests
There are 3.869 billion hectares(公顷) of forests on Earth. But we are losing them mainly because we cut trees too much. If we calculate(计算)at the size of a football field, we are losing 343,000 football fields every day, or 1,431 per hour, or 24 per minute!
1.5 centimeters long corals(珊瑚)
All the corals that we have now spread for about 100,000 km in 109 countries. But each of us can only have such a little piece, because seas are getting polluted and corals are dying.
33 stars
According to the latest report, there are 200 billion stars in the Milky Way. Each of us can have 33 of them. Unfortunately, we cannot see most of the 200 billion stars from Earth. We can only see about 6,000 stars. If we don’t use telescopes or we have bad weathers, we can only see about 2,000 stars.
90kg rice
On average, we harvest 0.54 billion tons of rice each year round the world and each of us can have 90 kg. Asia produces and eats 90% of all the rice. How long will it take you to eat up this 90 kg rice?
1 iceberg
Luckily, we still have icebergs to share when Earth gets warmer and warmer. Each of us can have an iceberg of 170m×170m×170m. Up to 10% of Earth surface is covered by ice. There is 31,000,000km3 of ice on Earth in all.

CABC解析本文是关于人均资源的,解释原因并提醒我们要珍惜环境。
1.细节题。第一格sea water is too salty for us to drink if the factories don’t process it first. So, 620 m3 is little. 可知我们实际可用的淡水非常少。
2.细节题。第二格中的because we cut trees too much。可知森林减少是因为我们砍树,属于人为的破坏。
3.细节题。第四格中的we can only see about 2,000 stars.
4.细节题。根据第三格because seas are getting polluted and corals are dying.可知
