nine provinces.
However, the Yellow River is in a poor situation.The water and soil loss is
very serious. And the water is badly polluted.Also, water shortages are even more
worrying.So it's important for us to protect it.
Firstly, we should stop fishing.Secondly, our government must make laws to
protect our mother river.Thirdly, we should plant more trees on both sides of the
river.And we should pick up rubbish along the river to keep it clean.
Let's work together and protect our beautiful “mother river”！
