Daniel is visiting an online club called Schools Around the World. Here are two pieces of writing on the website about different school lives.
Hi, everybody, My name is Nancy. I am in Year 7 at Woodland School near London. In our school, boys and girls have lessons together. Among all my subjects, I like French best. Learning foreign languages is fun. Our school has a Reading Week every year. During the week, we can borrow (借) more books from the school library. We can also bring in books and magazines from home. I often read more books than my classmates. Near the end of the week, we talk about the books with our classmates in class. Time seems to go faster when we are reading interesting books. |
Hi, guys, I’m John and I’m 13 years old. I’m in the 7th grade at Rocky Mountain High School near Denver. Every Monday, I go to the Buddy Club. In the club, older students help new students learn more about the school. My friend Tony is in the 12th grade. He often listens carefully to my problems and gives me help. He is my best friend. We have different classes every day. On Friday afternoon, we finish classes earlier than usual. My friends and I often do sports together. Twice a week, I play basketball after school. I love this game and practice hard every time. Our team won two games last month. |

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.
1.Its source(源头)on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is drying up. 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 m³ or so. Australia's Murray River reaches the sea only every other year. One fifth of America's Rio Grande has no water, either.

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.
5.Warmer weather takes water away. The glacier(冰川)are becoming smaller. The source of the Yellow River is drying up because of it. Global warming has had certain effects on water sources. Droughts (干旱) happening around the world make people pay more attention to this fact.
