【参考范文】
Nowadays the water on the earth which is suitable
to drink is becoming less and less. How has it come
about? On the one hand, some people waste lots of
water in their daily life. On the other hand, many
factories pour quantities of polluted water into rivers.
Meanwhile, global warming results in less rain in some
places. There is no doubt that if we don̓t want to put
up with thirst, we must protect and make the most of
water resources on the earth.
