  1970 was the World Conservation(保护)Year.The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger.They hoped that governments(政府)would act quickly in order to conserve nature.Here is one example of the problems.At one time there were 1, 300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain(留下).The others have been destroyed(毁灭)by modern man and his technology(技术).We are changing the earth, the air, the water, and everything that grows and lives.We can’t live without these things.If we go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves.

  What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask, “What must we do now?” The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young people today.A lot of them know that conservation is necessary.Many are helping to save our world.They plant trees, protect wild animals, and so on.In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the 11-kilometer-long banks of the river.Young people may hear about conservation through a record called “NO ONE’S GOING TO CHANGE OUR WORLD”.It was made by the Scatles, Cliff Richard and other singers.The money from it will help to conserve wild animals.

     As the sun rose, a dewdrop (露珠) woke up.  There it sat on a leaf, catching the sunlight. Proud of its
simple beauty,  it was very happy.  Around it were other dewdrops,  some on the same leaf and some on
other leaves. The dewdrop was sure that it was the best, the most special dewdrop of them all.

begun and the end had come so quickly. It seemed so unfair. It seemed so meaningless. It tried hard to do whatever it could to stay on the leaf, but it was no use.
     Finally, it fell. Below there was a mirror. A reflection of the dewdrop seemed to be coming up to meet
it.  Closer and closer they came together until finally.., the small dewdrop became a part of the great pond (池塘). Now the dewdrop was no more, but it was not destroyed.

     Talking on a mobile phone is expensive, so a lot of people send text messages. Text messages are
much cheaper by making the words shorter. You can do this by taking out "unimportant" letters in the
words and using numbers instead of words (2=to, 3=free, 4 = for, 8 = ate, so, etc. ). You can also keep
a way from using punctuation. Here is an example: Do u wnt 2 g 2 th cnma tnit? (Do you want go to the
cinema tonight?)
     What do you think these text messages mean?
     Whr hv U bn? Iv bn wing hrs fr a cll.
