The new book Harry Potter and the Half?Blood(哈利·波特与混血王子) is warmly welcomed by the children in China. It sells well across China. You can see and hear the advertisements about the book here and there.

Why is the book so popular?After reading it,I was attracted(吸引)by the magic world. I can't help asking:where is our own Harry Potter?China has a long history and colorful culture. However,why are our present books not as good as those foreign ones?

Firstly,many children's books are written for teaching, and they're not interesting. Reading them,children often have a feeling of being “educated”. Certainly,they don't like them. Secondly,fewer children like the same stories,but most Chinese books are usually the same.They know the ending when they read the beginning. Finally,the writers hardly ever think about children's needs.

Pollution

Hundreds of years ago,life was much harder than it is today.People didn't have modern machines.There was no modern medicine,either.

Life today has brought new 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 become angry more easily.Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution.It's bad to all living things in the world.

Cars,planes and factories all pollute our air every day.Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city.This kind of quilt is called haze (雾霾).

Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution.Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away,and they mustn't blow dirty smoke into the air.

We need to do many other things.We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground.We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car.If there are fewer people driving,there will be less pollution.

Rules are not enough.Every person must help to fight against pollution.
