Poyang Lake is China’s largest fresh-water lake. According to the news on China Youth Network on October 9, 2024, the lake came to its dry season, much earlier than before. Fishermen could no longer make a living and people living nearby faced water shortage.
You are wrong if you think this will not happen again. Two-thirds of China’s cities now face water shortage. And about 300 million people living in the countryside drink unhealthy water.
The water shortage in the world looks even sadder. By 2030, about half of the world population could be facing water shortage, said Ban Ki-moon at the Budapest Water Summit in Hungary.
Think about our children and our children’s children. We should try to make the world a better place. To deal with the problem, Ban calls on people to use water in a sustainable (sustainable) way. “Farmers should learn to get more ‘crop per drop’ by using good irrigation technologies (irrigation technologies). And also, governments should deal with the problem with all other players, including everyone,” Ban said.
How can we help? It’s simple: do not waste even a drop of water! For example, turn off the tap while you are brushing your teeth, drink up bottled water before you throw the bottle away, and don’t pour out water that can be reused. If we can remember and follow this, we will make a difference.

A. B. C. D.

It is a very unusual story about Ann Jones, from Washington D.C. and her friend Bella, a dolphin.
It is said that a dolphin can see everything in one’s body with its special organs. When there is a sick person and a healthy one, the dolphin will swim with the sick one. For almost four years Bella swam with Ann all the time to let her know that she was sick and that she was protecting her.
Before Ann went to swim with the dolphin, she went to a doctor but was told that she was well. Ann kept telling the doctor she had a pain in her body. And the doctor kept saying she was OK. This went on year after year. That was why Ann turned to the dolphins. When she swam with Bella on the first trip, the dolphin tried to tell her that something was wrong. After the trip, she had a body scan. It showed that Ann had a cancerous tumor (恶性肿瘤) as big as an egg in her body. She might die in about six months but Bella helped save her life.
“I’m doing great!” said Ann. “I’ve got healthy again and I go to check my body every three months. And I think I will still be healthy in the future! Thanks, Bella!”

Poyang Lake is China’s largest fresh-water lake. According to the news on China Youth Network on October 9, 2024, the lake came to its dry season, much earlier than before. Fishermen could no longer make a living and people living nearby faced water shortage.

Think about our children and our children’s children. We should try to make the world a better place. To deal with the problem, Ban calls on people to use water in a sustainable (sustainable) way. “Farmers should learn to get more ‘crop per drop’ by using good irrigation technologies (irrigation technologies). And also, governments should deal with the problem with all other players, including everyone,” Ban said.
How can we help? It’s simple: do not waste even a drop of water! For example, turn off the tap while you are brushing your teeth, drink up bottled water before you throw the bottle away, and don’t pour out water that can be reused. If we can remember and follow this, we will make a difference.
