Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource(自然资源)on the earth.
Water covers 70 perent of the earth’s surface (表面). But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only one percent of the earth’s surface.
You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s . But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers , lakes , and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish , too. Now, thirty-four percent of all kinds of fish are dying out.
How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then , when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain(酸雨), is also bad for plants ,animals and buildings.
Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water:
● Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450liters(升)each month.
● Leaky taps (漏水的龙头)waste a lot of water. Fix them right away.
●You can easily cut your 10—minute showers in half---and you’ll be just as clean.
●When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run.
●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full , you are wasting water!

Tracy sat at the kitchen table daydreaming. She was thinking about the used bike she planned to buy. She was making a list of things she wanted to do to fix up the bike. On her list, Tracy had written new seat, paint, and bell. Then she thought, “I want to make sure drivers see me on my bike. I’ll add reflectors (反光镜)to my list.”
Tracy’s dad walked into the kitchen. “What are you doing?” he asked.
“Oh, I’m just thinking about the bike I want to buy”, Tracy said. “I had hoped to earn enough on my paper route the first week to buy it, but I only made fifteen dollars. I hope the bike is still there after I get paid next week.”
“Well, if you would like to earn the money tomorrow, you can help me,” Tracy’s dad said.
“Doing what?” Tracy asked eagerly.
“I’m washing windows in the morning,” her dad said. “I could use five dollars’ worth of help.”
Even though it was a Saturday, Tracy got up quite early. She washed the inside of all of the windows. By twelve o’clock, she finished and had the money in her hand. Just as she was ready to leave, her mom called to her, “Tracy, did you make your bed?” Tracy rushed to her bedroom and made her bed. Finally, she headed for the door. She raced down the street to where the bike was for sale. Luckily, It was still there. The owner noticed Tracy looking at the bike. “Would you like to buy it?” asked the owner.
“I sure would! I have twenty dollars,” Tracy answered, pulling the money out of her pocket.
Within minutes Tracy rode away wearing a huge smile. She circled the block several times. She wanted her friends to see her on her new bike.
