10. A Day to Remember
One hot summer day, my father and I went to the swimming pool. While my father was away, I slipped into the pool! The water kept coming towards me and I drank a lot. I tried very hard to keep my head above the water. I was so afraid that I shouted.
Just then, my father saw me and seemed to be shocked. He said, "Calm down, just move your arms and legs like that!" I did as he told me and finally learnt to swim!
From this experience I learnt that one's power is unlimited. And one has to stay calm when in danger. It is a day to
remember.

12. Water and Life// Water Pollution
1. 随着工业化(industrialization)的推进，地球上的淡水(fresh water)越来越少。
2. 生命没水就要消亡(disappear)，因此人类要珍惜(treasure)淡水。
3. 我们如何节约用水。
With the progress of industrialization, the water on the earth has been seriously polluted. But many factories still keep pouring dirty water into rivers and lakes. As a result, fresh water is becoming increasingly scarce.
As we all know, fresh water is very significant to humans and all other living things. Life will disappear without water. Therefore, mankind should treasure fresh water.
The whole society should take some measures to save water. First, our government should develop industries that consume less water. Second, waste water must be recycled. Finally, everyone should do his bit to save water.
12．水与生活/水污染
