The world is not only hungry,it will also be thirsty for water.About 97％ of water
on the earth is sea water,or salt water. Man can only drink or use the other 3％of the
fresh water which comes from rivers,lakes and underground.On the other hand,because the
number of people in the world is becoming larger and larger,more and more fresh water is
needed.So a water shortage becomes a big problem.How can we work out this problem?
Scientists have found some ways to turn salt water into fresh water.One important way is to
boil sea water with high heat until vapor rises,leaving the salt.In this way,a lot of fresh water
can be made quickly.But heating is not the only way to get fresh water. Other ways are
tried,for example,digging deep wells,keeping rain water and preventing rivers from being
polluted.Which way is the best?To get the most fresh water for the least money is the
best.

One evening I visited the English corner of our university for the first time. It lies beside
our university library where trees and flowers grow and there is a spacious（广阔的）
ground. Every evening,large numbers of people go there to improve their English.
When I arrived there,many people had already been there.I looked around and
found that most of them were college students.Some of them were talking and they laughed
happily. To my great surprise,I even found three foreigners talking and smiling with some
students who were listening with great interest. Just then a tall student came towards me and
asked,“Shall we have a talk in English?”I was a little nervous because I didn’t think I
was good at English. Anyway,I said“Yes”.Soon we were talking freely about ourstudies,our lives,our hobbies as well as our problems of learning English.Time went
fast,and it was already 10 o’clock before I realized it.
I had a good time there and was glad to learn a lot at the corner. I understood the proverb
better,“Practice makes perfect.”
