En las preguntas 31 – 35, marque A, B, C o D en su hoja de respuesta.
Many people are increasingly thirsty for what is considered the healthiest, and often most
expensive, water on the grocery shelf. However, instead of consuming four billion gallons of
bottled water a year, we need to start thinking about what all those bottles are doing to the planet.
Water bottles, made from natural gas and petroleum, are bad for the environment because their
production wastes valuables resources. The Earth Policy Institute in the US has calculated that it
takes about 1.5 million barrels of oil to make the water bottles Americans use each year. And
unfortunately, only about 23 percent of bottles are used again.
In fact, bottled water isn´t necessary because most municipal water is so good that nobody
needs to imports a single bottle. Drinking eight glasses of bottled water a day could cost up to
$1,400 annually. The same amount of tap water would cost about 49 cents.
Another serious problem is that the more bottled people drink, the less political support there will
be for maintaining public water supplies. Access to cheap, clean water is basic to a country´s
health.
Some local governments in the US have begun to fight back. Recently, San Francisco´s Mayor
prohibited his city´s departments and agencies from buying bottled water. Likewise, a similar
order has been given in Salt Lake City. The real change, though, will come when millions of
people realize that they can save money and the planet, if they only stop drinking bottled water
and turn on the tap.
People should be aware that the country has some of the best public water supplies in the world.

34. According to the author, what may happen if people drink more tap water?
A. Local governments will save money on imports
B. Community water programs may not be cut
C. The country will have safer and cheaper bottled water
D. Less money will be spent on healthcare
