  March 20th is World Water Day every year.According to a report from the United Nations, more than half of the world's major rivers have serious water loss and are polluted.

  The Yellow River, the world's fifth longest river, watered some of the oldest farms on earth.But now it has a serious problem.  1   In most of the past 35 years, it didn't reach the sea.

  The Nile in Egypt, running 6, 650 km, is the longest river in the world.  2   Now it is down to 2 billion m' or so.Australia's Murray River reaches the sea only every other year.One fifth of America's Rio Grande has no water, either.

    3  

  Mostly it's damming(筑坝)and global warming that make rivers dry.

    4   Now about 45, 000 of them lie across the world's rivers.They hold back around 15% of the world's fresh water from running to the sea.

  Global warming is making things worse.Warmer weather takes water away.The glacier(冰川)are becoming smaller.  5   Global warming has had certain effects on water sources(源头).Droughts(干旱)happening around the world make people pay more attention to this fact.

  First it was an earthquake.Then came a terrible tsunami.These natural disasters killed thousands of people in Japan on Mar.11, 2011.Then a nuclear crisis(核危机)put the island in danger and shocked the world.

  Damaged by the earthquake and tsunami, Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant(福岛第一核电站)has put out dangerous radioactive(放射性的)materials.Experts from several countries are working to control the crisis.

  Although the reports say the leak so far will not cause huge health problems, people are worrying about nuclear safety.Switzerland has stopped plans to build new nuclear plants.Germany raised questions about its nuclear future.

  As for China, the government has suspended approving(暂停审批)new nuclear power stations and stepped up safety checks at existing plants, Xinhua reported.But it is reported that all nuclear power stations in China are safe.

  A nuclear power plant creates electricity.It is a clean energy source.In 1954, the world's first nuclear power plant was built in Russia.From then on, nuclear power has been widely used.

  But nuclear power plants have hidden problems.If radioactive materials get into the air or water, they can pollute soil and plants and harm humans and animals.Nuclear accidents, such as the Chernobyl(切尔诺贝利)disaster in 1986 in the Ukraine, have caused great damage to the nearby people and the environment.

  Will there be another choice for energy that we can use in the future? In recent years, scientists have found ways to make electricity from sunshine, wind and garbage.

  Some scientists say hydrogen(氢气)may be used to create power.Hydrogen is a clean resource to use, and will never disappear.Some car companies have already developed cars powered by hydrogen.But still, the technology for its production is only in early stages of development.

A Letter From Mar(火星)

  Dear Earthmen,

  I have enjoyed my stay on your interesting planet. I think I understand the life on earth now and I would like to give my impressions(印象).

  First of all you live in boxes. Every morning you leave your big boxes and get into smaller boxes on wheels(轮子). All these small boxes run around and around, and finally stop to rest. You leave these boxes on wheels and go to very large tall boxes.

  After resting all day you get back in your little boxes and return to your big boxes. There you sit and look at very small glowing boxes with moving pictures on the front.

  There is only one thing I don't understand. I went to a football game one day. A group of angry boys fought a little round ball. Everyone shouted but they kept fighting. They were angry, because they had been kept in boxes all day. I think.

  Thanks you earthmen for this chance to get to know you.
