Are there any people living in the desert? The answer is yes. As a matter of fact, the desert is home to many people. I know a family living in the desert. Water is so important and valuable for them.
The family don't have enough water. They seldom plant flowers or grass. They can only take a quick shower once a week. During the shower, they must collect the water. After the shower, they reuse the water to clean the house or water their small plants. It doesn't rain much in the desert.

Water is important for all living things. But many places in the world are short of water. Here are some ways people in dry places save water:
· Take quick showers. They don't take long baths. They finish their showers in 5-10 minutes.
· Collect rainwater. When it rains, they collect water in big tanks and use it later.
· Reuse water. After washing vegetables, they use the water to water plants. After washing clothes, they use the water to clean the floor.
· Use underground water. They dig deep wells to get water from under the ground.
We are lucky to have enough water, but we should still save water. Small actions can make a big difference.
