Life
today has many problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has
made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking
water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and makes us become angry more
easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It’s bad to living
things in the world.
We need to do a lot of things to fight pollution. Factories must clean their waste water before it is thrown away, and they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air. We can’t throw waste things on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving on the roads, there will be less pollution. Rules are not enough. Everybody must help to fight pollution.

Hurricane(飓风) reached the northeastern United States today and caused death and destruction everywhere. The killer storm carried winds of 135 miles per hour. The high winds and heavy rains created extremely dangerous waves. It is not yet known how many people died or were hurt in this storm, but it is said that the numbers will be very high.
With the arrival of the tornado season, the National Weather Service is again telling people how to protect themselves from these deadly storms. The winds from tornadoes are the most violent winds on earth. They can blow up to 400 miles per hour. A tornado looks like a funnel(漏斗). It is also very loud. It may sound like a train coming at you. In fact, the winds from a tornado can pick up a train and throw it around. If a tornado is seen in your area, it is very important that you protect yourself. A basement (地下室) is the safest place to go. Try to wait under a table in the basement. Stay away from windows. If you are outside or in your car, try to find a narrow place to hide.
As the area tries to deal with the worst flood of the century, there are many heartwarming stories of people helping other people. From all over the world people have sent food and clothes to help the thousands who have had to leave their homes. Many volunteers have come to help to make sandbags and use them to build walls against the overflowing river. While the result of this disaster will be terrible for many, it is beautiful to see people coming together to help others and save lives.
