A Time I Failed to Win
I will never forget the time I failed to win the English speech contest last year . I prepared for it for a whole month . However , on the stage , I was too nervous and forgot my words . I only got third prize . I felt so disappointed and almost cried .
But my teacher told me , “ Courage is more important than the prize . ” Her words warmed my heart . I realized that I had already beaten the old me who was too shay to speak in public .
This failure taught me that the process of trying our best is itself a success . Now , I’m not afraid of challenges anymore . I understand that every failure can be a step toward a better me , if I learn from it .

The hill is green because we all protect it . We never pick flowers or break branches (树枝). Instead , we plant one young tree every spring . My brother names each tree , and we measure their height with a stick . Last year our “ Happy Apple ” gave us five sweet fruits , and we shared them with our neighbours .
On the hill we also make homes for birds . We use old wooden boxes , put dry grass inside and hang them on the trees . This spring a blue bird built a nest in our box . We watched her feed her babies and felt proud because we helped .
At home we save water by taking short showers and turning off the tap when we brush our teeth . My mother keeps a small garden . She puts vegetable peels and sapless(枯萎的)leaves into a compost bin (肥料箱), and after a few weeks the waste becomes good fertilizer(肥料). We then use the rich fertilizer to grow tomatoes and lettuce .

The water shortage is a big problem in many parts of the world. In some dry places, not having enough water makes daily life very hard. People there have trouble finding enough water and getting clean water to drink.
One good way to solve this problem is to dig wells. With the help of modern technology, wells can now be dug near people’s homes. Special machines dig deep into the ground to find fresh water. After finding the water, a pump is put in. Then people can easily get water from the well. Having wells nearby is great because people don’t need to walk far to get water, and the water they get is clean and safe to drink.
Collecting rainwater is another useful way. It usually needs many people to work together to build water tanks. Some tanks are built on rooftops, and some are built at schools. These tanks collect and store rainwater. The stored rainwater can be used when there is no rain. At school, these rainwater collection systems are like good teaching tools. Students can learn how to save water and protect the environment by using them.
Reusing water also helps a lot when there is not enough water. Water used for taking showers doesn’t have to be thrown away. Even the water used for washing dishes, which can’t be used for drinking or cooking, can be used again. It can be used to water plants and fruit trees. This helps keep the plants alive and saves water at the same time.
41. What is a big problem in many parts of the world ?

42. How many ways to solve the water shortage problem ?

43. Why are rainwater collection systems useful at schools?

You probably remember the Flaming Mountains from journey to the west . But do you know
61 the real Flaming Mountains are ? They are in Turpan , in the east of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region .
It’s known as one of the 62 areas in the world . The desert sand can be as hot as 80℃ in midsummer . That’s enough 63 your feet burn ! It may sound crazy , but the locals can cook an egg on the desert sand . Rainfall in Turpan is only 16 mm a year . It is one of the driest places in China . How do people survive in such a terrible climate ? The secret lies in the ancient karez system .
The karez system in Turpan includes more than 1000 wells . They appear every 20-30 metres. Some of them are 100 metres deep ! Under these wells are large underground canals . Water from the mountains falls into the wells . It then runs underground in the canals . It is 64 cool and safe from the desert heat . There are over 5000 km of underground canals in the area . That’s nearly as 65 as the Yellow River ! Thanks to the karez system , people can grow plants for food in this difficult environment . And 66 , all of this was 67 with only hand tools ! No wonder it’s among the top three projects of ancient China .
Today , the area faces a water 68 . There is less water from the mountains , lower rainfall and a large increase in water use . Although modern technology is solving some problems , the karez system still plays 69 important role . Now , more and more young people are taking action to protect it . The centuries-old water system will 70 be carried into the future .
