     Imagine one day the water taps (水龍頭) in your house stop running. You have to pay a lot of money.
to buy water from shops. And still there isn't enough water for everyone. Your mother has to save the
family's shower water to use for washing clothes. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?
     Probably not. But that is what kids in Yemen (也門) are experiencing (經(jīng)歷). According to a report,
the capital, Sana, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.
     Because of the water shortage (短缺), the Yemen government often cuts the water supply (供應(yīng)).
Hannan, an 18-year-girl, tells the Teens, "In a good week we'll have a water supply all week. But then
the next week there will be water only for a day or two."
     Hannan says only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from
the water trucks. Private (私人的) companies own the trucks, They travel around the city every day to
sell water — at very high prices.
     "A lot of people can't pay for it," she says.
     The government is thinking of making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen
soon enough to help the people of Yemen.

How I study English

I often hear some students say English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. So they can’t learn it well. But English is very easy for me. I’m good at it. I’m very glad to tell you something about how I study English.

First, I think an interest(愛好)in English is very important. When I was in Grade One, we had a new subject – English. It was fresh for me . I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it. Soon we had an English exam and I got a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. Our English teacher often teaches us English songs, the songs sound nice. I often think how interesting English is!

Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well in the following ways: Listen to the teacher carefully, speak bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary(詞匯). Then practice again and again, never be tired. And I also have a good habit: Asking whenever(不論何時)I have a question, I must make it clear by asking our English teacher. How happy I am when I understand!

Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. From these I know English is not only interesting, but also useful. They help me understand a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well.

And I also do some exercises from our class magazines, and I often write English diaries. English has become a close friend of mine.

Now I have learned English for more than two years. I always keep the first position in our school. From these words, I hope every student can learn English well.

     I need friends who can share my emotions (情感). When I get very happy or excited, I need someone
to share with me. When I was full of sorrow or sadness, I need to talk about it with someone. I need friends
who can give me a hand when I come across difficulties or am in trouble. Of course, we take time to make
friends. We choose a friend and are chosen by a friend. We may get a lot from a friend but also need to give
much to a friend, and that is friendship. We know that it is very difficult to get help or to have a friend when
we are in trouble. So we take time to make friends so that we can have good friends to get help from if we
come across difficulties. I need friends to spend my spare time to avoid loneliness. A lot of activities require
a partner. For example, when we play table tennis or badminton, we need a partner. In this way, a friend can
make my life more exciting and meaningful.
      It seems that everyone needs a friend to live a happier life. Without friendship, life is not complete. We
need friendship for different purposes, and different purposes may need different friends. Life is made up of
friendship. Let us open our hearts and make more friends to live a happier life.
