Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana(加纳), Africa．It is hard for her family to get clean water．Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away．It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking．She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends．Millions of people in the world are like Napoga．They can't get enough clean water to keep healthy．
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 on the earth．
Water covers 70％ 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 1％ 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, 34％ 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 450 liters(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're wasting water!

In Amsterdam, the capital of Holland, there is a Children Restaurant．Some children run it．From the manager to the cooks, cashiers(出纳员)，waiters or waitresses and other members are all children from 6 to 12 years old．They themselves do all the work, such as cooking and cleaning．These children are from Amsterdam．After learning, they may work in the restaurant for four weeks．All of them are willing(愿意)to be there and they are very proud(自豪)of the work．

Sometimes the most difficult thing about feelings is sharing them with others．Sharing your feelings helps you both when your feelings are good and when they aren’t so good．Sharing also helps you to get closer to people you care about and who care about you．
Before you can share your feelings with someone, you have to know what feelings you have．Making a list of your feelings can help．You can do this in your head or by writing them out on a piece of paper or even by drawing pictures．
If you're feeling sad, worried, or upset, you'd better tell someone．If you keep such feelings locked inside, they can even make you feel sick! So if you talk with someone who cares for you, like your mom or dad, you will start to feel better．/But what if you don't want to talk with your mom or dad? Then find another trusted(可信赖的)adult．Maybe this person can help you talk what you mean, try explaining it in a different way．Is there anything you think could be done to make things better? If so, say it．
