‘Three quarters of the Earth is water．For thousands of years, the seas have helped us by giving us food and water．

Young People in Britain
Life used to be fun for“teenagers”．They used to have money to spend, and free time to while away(消磨)．They used to wear teenage clothes, and meet in teenage coffee bars and discos．Some of them still do．But for many young people, life is harder now． 1 are difficult to find．There’s not so much money around．Things are 2 , and it’s hard to find a place to live in．Teachers say that students work harder than they used to．They are less 3 in politics, and more interested in 4 exams．They know that good exam results may bring them better jobs．
Most young people worry more about money than their parents did twenty years ago．They try 5 less and save more．They want to be able to get homes of their own one day．
For some, the answer to unemployment(失业)is to leave home and look for jobs in one of Britain’s big 6 ．Every day hundreds of young people arrive in London from other parts of Britain, looking for jobs．Some find jobs and stay． 7 don’t, and go home again, or join the unemployed(失业者)in London．
When you read the newspapers and watch the news on television, it’s 8 to get the idea that British young people are all unemployed, angry and in trouble．But that’s not true．Three quarters of them do more or less what their parents did．They do their best at school, find some kinds of jobs in the end, and get 9 in their early twenties．They get on well with their parents, and enjoy their family life．After all, if they don’t, they 10 be British, will they?
What has happened to the forests of the U.S.A. in the last 350 years? In 1620. about half the U.S.A. was covered by forests. In 1850, about a third was covered by forests.
