Water’s important

      英语角 2005-6-14 14:32
You may have realized the importance of water in our lives since we often hear news about droughts and the South-North water diversion project.

The truth is, currently, many places in China lack water. People in those places are long for water. So treasure every drop of it. It’s everyone’s duty to save water.

At the same time, there are people still wasting water. Take my mother for example. She lets water drip in a basin to store it but always forgets to turn it off when the basin is full. I’ve had to remind her to shut off the tap time after time but she never cares.

One morning I got up and saw the tap open and the water running out of the basin and down the drain. I immediately closed the tap and thought: Why do we let the water run away without even using it? Why is it so hard to think responsibly about saving water?

My mother is not the only one wasting water in China. There are millions of others. Their waste may not harm themselves, but they hurt others and their future generations. So I want readers to bear the following in mind: "Saving water is everyone’s duty."

I sincerely hope that this will remind us every time we open the water tap. To save water, we not only need the awareness, we also need to act.
