【答案】例文:
As is known to all, more than 70 percent of the earth is covered with water, but 3 percent is fresh water, of which only 0.5 percent is potable water. So saving water is very important.
Water taps are often used in our daily life. Remember to turn them off when we are not using them. It’s better to use a shower than a tub, because you need to put a lot of water in it before you use it. Then, we can recycle water. For example, after we wash our faces, we can use the water to flush the toilet, or clean the house. What a clever idea, isn’t it Finally, as fresh water is rare, we should stop throwing things in rivers or lakes.
In a word, water is valuable and we should not waste it or pollute it.

Dear mayor,
I want to talk to you about the river close to our school.
The river is very dirty now. Many people throw rubbish into the river. Also, some factories pour waste water into it. As a result, it becomes very dirty. I know there were lots of fish in the river before. The dirty water killed most of the fish and there are few in it now. If there is no clean river, the fish will all die one day.
I think it is very important for us to protect our environment. We can’t live without the fresh air and water. Let’s stop polluting the river. I hope that everyone will take some measures to protect our home.
