9．March 22nd every year has been the World Water Day since 1993．Everyone knows that over 70% of our planet is covered with water，but do you know that only 3% of the water is fresh and less than 1% of this fresh water is available for human use？
Water shortage
The World Bank reports that 80countries now have water shortages，while 40% of the more than 2billion people，have no access to clean water．Fresh water is such a life-or-death issue（问题） in many parts of the world that every eight seconds a child dies from drinking dirty water．
How to save water
Turn off the tap while you brush you teeth in the morning and before bedtime，and you can save up to 8gallons of water!That adds up to more than 200gallons a month，enough to fill a huge fish tank that holds 6small sharks!
Keep your shower under 5minutes long．In fact，a 5-minute shower uses more water than a person living in poverty in a developing country uses in an entire day．
Fix the leak．If your toilet has a leak，you could be wasting about 200gallons of water every day．That would be like flushing your toilet more than 50times for no reason!
We each share responsibility for the sustainable management（可持续管理） of our water resources，which means using less water at home，in the workplace，at school，on holidays，on the farm，…everyone，everywhere，every time．

8．Brazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population growth-but more by accident than design．While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates，Brazil has had better result without really trying，says George Martine at Harvard．
Brazil's population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951and 1960to 1.93% a year between 1981and 1990，and Brazilian women now have only 2.7children on average．Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990，an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries．
Martine puts it down to among other things，soap operas and installment（分期付款）plans introduced in the 1970s．Both played an important，although indirect，role in lowering the birth rate．Brazil is one of the world's biggest producers of soap operas．Globo，Brazil's most popular television network，shows three hours of soaps six nights a week，while three others show at least one hour a night．Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities．
"Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of Reproduction（生育），they describe middle and upper class values：not many children，different attitudes towards sex，women working，"says Martine．"They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values，which were put into a very attractive package．"
Meanwhile，the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers．"This led to an enormous change in consumption patterns and consumption was incompatible（不相容的） with unlimited reproduction，"says Martine．

7．[1]The other day I received an email from an old roommate．She congratulated me on my new basketball coaching job．After the congratulations，her next words were：I know you can't keep still．
[2]My roommate knows me well．We lived together for two years．She saw me working two jobs，one full-time and one part-time and besides that，I coached a girl basketball team in the winter．I rarely had free time．When she said，"I know you can't keep still"，she was telling the truth．
[3]For years，I liked being busy．In college，I studying，sports，and clubs．I graduated from college four years ago．During most of those years，I held at least two jobs at the same time．Even if I was on a break with one job，I filled my time up with whatever I could．
[4]Our culture teaches us that being busy means happiness．We are socialized （社会化） to believe that filling our days keeps us content．However，being busy has bad results．Being busy allows us to escape our lives and ignore our problems．We never have the opportunity to face our fears or examine the desires of our hearts．We never learn the joy and peace of free time to just be alive．
[5]A year ago，I decided to make some complete changes in my life．I wasn't content and the culture of business was upsetting me．I wanted a simple life．I wanted a life where I had free time to enjoy the world around me．
[6]I changed my lifestyle．I moved．I got a new job．I lived a simple life．However，when my roommate sent me that email，she reminded me I still haven't quite broken free of my old habits．I still need to work on being still and breaking free from the culture of business．

Try to make your first sentence catch the reader's eyes，because ，the reader is not going to read on．Get a good，clear lead sentence that summarizes your points and answers the reader's question"What is in it for me？"if you can not do it in one sentence，then do it in two or three but keep them short．
[4]Remembering the reader
Short，simple words are better than long words．Short sentences are better than long sentences．Remember that the goal is to communicate，not to express yourselves．Most people are so devoted to what they want to say that they forget somebody else has to be able to read it．Too much information makes you lose readers before they get to the meat（实质） of what you want to say．
[5]Reading and rewriting

[3]Use mistakes as an opportunity for learning．Most of us want to hide our mistakes，but we may be more willing to share our"MIS-TAKES"and let others learn from them．Either an individual or a family can benefit by openly recognizing and correcting mistakes，rather than pretending that they didn't happen．In fact，a mistake，if corrected quickly and in a creative way，can become __________for learning．
