A bottle of water may not seem like much to you, but thousands of bottles will be of great help for people who live in drought-hit(遭受旱灾的) areas in China.
Once there was very little rain in Southwest China. Some places, especially in Yunnan, Guangxi, Sichuan and Guizhou, experienced(经历) a serious drought. Crops died, the land cracked(裂开), and wells(井) and rivers dried up. More than 20 million people were having difficulty in finding safe drinking water.
After learning about the drought, many people around the country helped by giving water, money and other things.
Every member of the Communist Youth League of China(中国共青团) and Young Pioneers(少先队) was encouraged to give one bottle of water to the drought-hit areas. Students in primary schools and middle schools quickly joined in the activity. The serious drought has also made students realize(意识到) the importance of saving water. Many students went on the street to tell people to take part in water-saving activities.
“I’ve heard that some children in drought-hit areas don’t have enough drinking water. They have to drink muddy(浑浊的) water. I feel really sad about that,” said one student. “I decide to take a shower twice a week instead of every day to save water,” he said.
1. Why did a serious drought happen in Southwest China?
2. What did the people in drought-hit areas need most?
3. What happened to crops and land during the drought?
4. How did the student plan to save water?
5. What can you do to save water in your daily life?
