①Water is one of the most useful things on Earth. It gives us life. We think water is something soft and gentle, but sometimes water is so powerful that it can even be destructive(破坏性的). Here we talk about floods.
②There are two main kinds of floods: flash floods and slow floods. Flash floods are sudden floods of great volumes of water. They overflow(溢出) the banks of the rivers and wash away everything they touch into pieces. Flash floods are destructive. The other type is slow floods. They rise over a long period of time. Usually as more and more rain falls, the water in rivers rises and floods the land. These slow floods happen in every country in the world.
③Floods are the world's biggest natural killer. When floods happen, crops are damaged(毁坏), houses are washed away, roads are destroyed, and people are killed. Every year in America water kills over 100 people, most in flash floods. Floods also cause huge economic(经济的) losses.
④Floods are a serious problem. Worse still, they may become more powerful and happen more often as global(全球的) warming becomes more and more serious. Around the world, sea levels will rise, and more lives will be taken by the flood waters of our planet.
⑤Floods are a serious natural disaster and we must try to stop them from happening often to protect our lives and homes.
