Where’s all the water? (P6)

Pre-reading

Free Talk

Have you ever heard of World Water Day?

When is World Water Day?

Why do you think people celebrate this day?

 

While reading

In December 2021, people in Shenzhen found that water ran more slowly from their taps. The government (政府) said the city was facing its most serious water shortage (短缺) ever.

serious: [ˈsɪəriəs] dj. 严重的,危急的

翻译:政府认为这座城市正面临最严重的水资源短缺。

练习:

吸烟严重危害健康。

Smoking is a serious danger to our health.

 

Some other cities in the southern part of China, like Chengdu and Guangzhou, are also becoming thirsty, The Paper reported. Compared (相比) with northern areas, southern areas have more rain and are close to more rivers and lakes. So why are they still short on water?

short:[ʃɔːt] adj. 短缺的,稀少的

翻译:那么,为什么他们仍然缺水呢?

练习:

这篇文章缺少细节。

The writing is short on details.

 

In big cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou, populations are growing fast. As a result, people and factories need more and more water. Each person in Shenzhen has less than 200 cubic meters of water each year. Its 1/12 of the countrys average (平均水平). According to the United Nations, it is an absolute water shortage (极度缺水) when the number is below 500 cubic meters.

cubic:[ˈkjuːbɪk] adj. 立方的;(量或变量的)三次的

翻译:深圳每人每年的用水量不足200立方米。

练习:一颗种子只需要一立方厘米的土壤就能生长。

A seed only needs one cubic centimeter of soil to grow.

 

Climate change is making the water problem worse. For example, most cities in Guangdong depend on (依赖于) the Dongjiang River as their main source (来源) of water. In 2021, the river was reported to be drying up. Because of climate change, theres also less snow in the mountains of Tibet. The snow has long been the source of water for many areas in China. Those mountains might provide less water in the future.

provide: [prəˈvaɪd] v. 提供,供给

翻译:未来,这些山脉供水量会更少。

练习:这家医院可以提供最好的医疗服务。

The hospital can provide the best medical care.

 

There are other reasons for water shortages. For example, water pollution makes it harder to get clean drinking water. Factories and farms dont use water efficiently (有效地). Some cities have enough rainfall, but dont have big lakes or reservoirs (水库) to store water. The water just goes into the sea.

store:[stɔːr] v. 贮存,储藏

翻译:一些城市有足够的降雨,但没有大的湖泊或水库来储存这些雨水。

练习:一些动物会贮存过冬食物。

Some animals store up food for the winter.

it: 在句中做形式宾语,真正的宾语是动词不定式to get clean drinking water

翻译:例如,水污染使人们喝到干净的饮用水更加困难。

练习:他们发现学习这门语言非常难。

They find it very difficult to learn the language.
