水　问
王猛
一
当我们潜入蓝藻丛生的滇池底部，去寻找消失已久的栲栳鱼，我们想知道究竟是什么污染了我们的湖水？当我们在海河岸边一次又一次见证了打井队寻找水源的失败经历时，我们想知道那些地下几百米的水究竟到哪里去了？
如果世界人均水资源是一满杯水的话，中国的人均水资源不过仅仅是一个杯底；而且由于时空分布极不均匀，在华北等人口聚集的地区，我们的人均水资源量甚至低于以色列、中东等地区。
危机不是即将到来，而是已经从四面八方悄悄开始。
在富裕的南方，几十万人，一夜之间就可能没有水喝；在淮河岸边，一场污水过后，所有河蟹养殖户彻底破产；在发展中的北方，河流的生命几乎绝迹；长江的河道里，人们花费上百万元，只是为了寻找到一种名叫白鳍豚的水生鱼类；“太湖美”、“汾河清”这样的歌曲在全国的水污染地图面前显得滑稽、尴尬。从北到南，七大流域正在水污染危机崩溃的边缘。
水是宽容的，因为宽容才产生了生命，也因为这种宽容，它容纳了这个世界大部分肮脏的东西。中国的工业文明发展史浓缩了西方两百年的时间，作为代价，中国的河流与湖泊也浓缩了西方两百年的污染史。利益驱动、制度缺失、道德沦丧，对比农耕文明，对比泰晤士河的治理，一味追求利益与让中国的江河湖泊重新变清究竟什么最重要？
二
在开封城几十公里外,悬在几百万人口上方的黄河,又让我们不断地思考洪水的出路;在漳河两岸,每年夏天都会增派武警来保护水源;在城市里,拉动任何一个抽水马桶,宁夏缺水地区全家人一星期的生活用水就全部被冲到了下水道;在有些地方,水很贵,一瓶矿泉水的价格甚至比97号汽油还要贵两倍……
中国人并不缺乏节水的历史、节水的意识和节水的技术。坎儿井、北海团城这些古老的节水设施已经使用了几千年,那么我们缺什么呢？对一户农民、一个企业、一个地区而言,当节水比浪费水还要多花钱的时候,为什么要节水？当浪费水仅仅只是一个道德问题的时候,我们为什么要节水？
节水不仅是我们面对生存危机不得已的选择,也是考验我们这个民族道德与制度建设能力的一次机会。
三
黄河源头有“千湖之县”美誉的玛多要搬迁了,原因是没有水;太湖之滨的大款要搬走了,原因是水脏了;世界第四大湖——咸海,已经消失了一半;我们儿时记忆中的河流几乎全部干枯了——我们的祖先是否想象过我们今天的遭遇?
人类的文明诞生在大河两岸,苏美尔人的崛起就是因为找到了与水和谐相处的方式;但是,苏美尔文明的消亡,也正是由于对水的过度利用。两百多年以前,人类发明了蒸汽机——一种利用水循环的机器,它推动着我们到达了今天的文明程度。我们生活在地球历史中最美好的时期,但是我们是不是忘记了水可以诞生文明,也可以毁灭文明？
面对水,如果我们不能够找到新的文明方式,我们还能在地球上待多久？

蚂蚁和蚜虫的关系简直可以说是亲密无间的，有时候，你会看到一群蚂蚁背着蚜虫川流不息地跑来跑去，那是蚂蚁在给蚜虫搬家。当蚜虫在一片植物上大肆蚕食，只剩下残茎败叶之后，蚂蚁就把这群祸害转移到另一处食物充足的地方去，使蚜虫能够饱食终日，好排泄出更多的蚜蜜来。在蚂蚁搬家的时候，也不会丢下为它提供美餐的好朋友不管。确定了新居之后，小蚂蚁就会把蚜虫一个一个搬到附近的植物上去。蚂蚁不仅是蚜虫的“卫士”，还是蚜虫的“保姆”。冬天临近了，雌蚜排出了一个个越冬卵。蚂蚁很担心这些卵会被冻坏，便不辞劳苦地把它一个个搬到外面晾晒，晒完后再搬回巢去。到了次年早春，蚜卵孵化了，这下又忙坏了小蚂蚁，它又主动承担了喂养小蚜虫的任务。直到春暖花开，蚂蚁又把小蚜虫一个个搬出洞来，放到植物上，让它去啃食鲜嫩的茎叶，以便自己从它的屁股后面捞取一点蚜蜜。（选自《中学生必读文库》）
