A new study warns that about thirty percent of the world's people may not have enough water by the year 2025.
一项新的研究结果提出警告:到2025年,世界上将有30%的人没有足够的水饮用。
A private American organization called Population Action International did the new study. It says more than three-hundred-thirty-five-million people lack enough water now. The people live in twenty-eight countries. Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East.
这项研究是由美国一家名叫“人口行动”的私立机构进行的。报告说现在世界上有三亿三千五百万人没有足够的水。这些人主要分布在非洲或中东的28个国家。
P-A-I researcher Robert Engelman says by the year 2025, about three-thousand-million people may lack water. At least 18 more countries are expected to have severe water problems. The demand for water keeps increasing. Yet the amount of water on Earth stays the same.
人口行动组织的研究人罗博特.安格曼说,到2025年大约三十亿人缺水。至少还有其他18个国家将可能面临同样严重的水短缺问题。人类对水的需求不断上升,但地球上水的还是保持不变。
Mr. Engelman says the population in countries that lack water is growing faster than in other parts of the world. He says population growth in these countries will continue to increase.
安格曼先生说,水短缺的国家的人口增长率要高于世界其他地区的人口增长率。他还说这些国家的人口出生率将持续增长。
The report says lack of water in the future may result in several problems. It may increase health problems. Lack of water often means drinking waters not safe. Mr. Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases, such as cholera, which are carried in water. Lack of water may also result in more international conflict. Countries may have to compete for water in the future. Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Netherlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan, and Iraq. And the report says lack of water would affect the ability of developing to improve their economies. This is because new industries often need a large amount of water when they are beginning.
报告表明,在未来,水资源的缺乏可能会导致一些严重的后果。首先它可能会产生更多的健康问题。水资源的缺乏就意味着饮用水不再有保障。安格曼先生说,诸如霍乱等在水中传播的疾病会使世界出现许多问题。水缺乏也会引起更多的国际纷争。各国可能由于水而发动战争。现在有些国家,例如埃及,荷兰,柬埔寨,叙利亚,苏丹和伊拉克等,60%的纯净水是从国外进口的。报告认为水缺乏将影响发展国家发展经济的能力。这是因为新工业在开始阶段经常需要大量的水。
The Population Action International study gives several solutions to the water problem. One way, it says, is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose. Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water. A third way is to use less water of agriculture.
人口行动组织的研究报告为世界的水短缺问题提出了几个解决的办法。第一,找到多用途的用水方法。第二,教育人们不要浪费水资源。第三就是少用农业水。
The report also says long-term solutions to the water problem must include controls on population growth. It says countries cannot provide clean water unless they slow population growth by limiting the number of children people have.
报告同时表明,控制人口增长是长远解决水缺乏问题不可缺少的措施之一。它说除非各国能通过限制生育来降低人口的增长,否则它们不可能提供干净的水。
Global warming a bigger threat to poor全球变暖加剧贫穷 气候变化急待控制
Global warming, modelled on computer here, kills more people than terrorism
Global warming threatens to reverse human progress, and make unachievable all UN targets to reduce poverty(联合国所有减少贫穷的目标), according to some of the world's leading international and development groups.
In a report published today, Oxfam, Greenpeace, Christian Aid, Friends of the Earth, WWF(英国牛津救济委员会、“绿色和平”组织、基督徒互援会、“地球之友”组织、世界野生动物基金组织) and 15 other groups say rich governments must immediately address(致力于) climate change to avoid even "obscene levels(无法忍受的程度)" of worldwide poverty.
"Food production, water supplies, public health and people's livelihoods are already being damaged and undermined," the report says. "There is no either/or approach possible(想找一个‘非此即彼'的办法是不可能的). The world must meet its commitments to achieve poverty reduction and also tackle climate change. The two are inextricably linked(二者的联系是难解难分的)."
The report, which draws on UN predictions of the effects of climate change in poor countries over the next 50 years, says poor countries will experience more flooding, declining food production, more disease and the deterioration or extinction of entire ecosystems(整个生态系统的退化甚至消失) on which many of the world's poorest people depend.
"Climate change needs to be addressed now. The poor will bear the brunt of the impacts. The frontline experience of many of us working in international development indicates that communities are having to combat more extreme weather conditions."
Climate change will play havoc(大范围的破坏;浩劫) with agriculture and water supplies and will increase diseases. "By 2025 the proportion of the world's population living in countries of significant water stress will almost double, to 6 billion people. Tropical and sub-tropical areas will be hardest hit - those countries already suffering from food insecurity(食品短缺)".
Poor communities mostly do not need hi-tech solutions, but would most benefit from education, research and being shown how to farm better. The report says unchecked global warming(尚未得到抑制的全球变暖), more than wars or political upheaval(政变), will displace millions of people and destabilise many countries.

关于人口引发的问题的英语作文
Population and environmental issues is closely inter-causal links, to a certain stage of social development, and productivity of a certain level of geographical conditions, the population should be maintained at an appropriate proportion of proliferation within.人口问题是与环境问题有密切的互为因果的联系,在一定社会发展阶段,一定地理环境和生产力水平条件下,人口增殖应保持在适当比例内。
The rapid growth in world population caused many problems. In particular, some over-population, economic growth in developed countries, affecting the country's economic development, social stability and people's living standards, many of the problems to human life. World population problems In order to solve the problem of excessive population growth, the human must control their own, so that planned fertility, the population growth and socio-economic development compatible with the environment, resource coordination.世界人口的迅猛增长引起了许多问题。
特别是一些经济不发达国家的人口过度增长,影响了整个国家的经济发展、社会安定和人民生活水平的提高,给人类生活带来许多问题。
人口数量问题困扰世界 为了解决人口增长过快的问题,人类必须控制自己,做到有计划地生育,使人口的增长与社会、经济的发展相适应,与环境、资源相协调。
In the 1970s, it was considered to account for the population at that time had lived on earth for 75% of the total population. The widely quoted statistics are too affected by the impact of the 20th century population explosion - the proportion of it is incredibly high. To get a more accurate result, we must determine when modern humans from the beginning, the birth rate is the number, and the history of how many people lived in the end. Generally believe that modern man is in the 50,000 years ago. We can imagine, does not limit the population was born, and life expectancy is very short, which resulted in a young population and higher fertility rates - every mother's health at around six to eight children. To the Middle Ages, the birth rate began to decline long. The record shows that since the 18th century, when the industrialized countries, the birth rate continues to decline. U.S. demographers Carl - Hao Po (CarlHaub) that, before the advent of agriculture, hunting in the way, the world's population is only about 5 million to 10 million. Light of the message, to the 1st century AD, according to the Roman, Chinese and Mediterranean off the census, the world's population has grown to 300 million. Application of this population a higher birth rate, we can estimate that so far a total of life on Earth over approximately 106 billion people. We now have 6.1 billion people, accounting for life on Earth has had a total population of 5.7%. In 1900, only 16 million people around the world, but developing countries rapid population growth led to the proliferation of the world's population, so we had a population proportion of the population of the Earth on the rise.在20世纪70年代,有人认为,当时的人口要占地球上曾经生活过的总人口的75%。
这一被广泛引用的统计结果过于受20世纪人口爆炸的影响——比例实在是高得令人难以置信。
要想得到一个比较精确的结果,我们必须确定现代人类是从何时开始的,出生率是多少,以及历史上到底生活过多少人。
普遍认为,现代人是在5万年前出现的。
我们可以设想,当时是不会限制人口出生的,且人的寿命都很短,这就导致一个年轻的人口结构和较高的生育率——每个母亲大约会生6到8个孩子。
到了中世纪,出生率开始长时间地下降。
18世纪以后的记录表明,当时的工业化国家,出生率在持续下降。
美国人口学者卡尔-郝伯(CarlHaub)认为,在农业出现以前,在以狩猎为生的方式下,全世界的人口大约只有500万到1000万。
科技之光消息,到了公元1世纪,根据当时罗马、中国和地中海地区的断断续续的人口普查,世界人口已增长至3亿。
对这个人口应用一个较高的出生率,就可以估算出,迄今为止地球上总共生活过大约1060亿人。
我们现在有61亿人,占地球上曾经生活过的总人口的5.7%。
在1900年,全世界只有16亿人,但是发展中国家人口的快速增长导致世界人口的激增,所以我们现有人口占地球曾有人口的比例在上升。
关于英语写作的问题
一、你需要先分析一下:自己的问题是在英语语言方面还是在写作方面?是语法词汇的问题还是作文结构内容的问题?只有对症下药,方可有事半功倍的效果,才能真正解决问题;二、提高英语写作水平须从两个方面下功夫:1、提高英语语言能力2、提高写作能力提高英语语言能力的方法很多,恕不赘述。
在此,我想对提高写作能力提几点建议。
对于将英语作为第二语言者来说,不要眉毛胡子一把抓。
写作能力可从自己的母语写作开始练起,重点是掌握写作的方法、提高写作能力。
写作是一个厚积薄发的过程,是一项将积累释放于一时的过程。
积累越深厚,释放就越精彩;积累越科学,释放就越有效。
因此我们说思想、知识和生活的积累是写作的源泉和基础。
它需要写作者具有以下能力: 1、发现、收集素材的能力; 2、阅读分析消化能力; 3、整理归纳能力; 4、资料编排、档案管理能力; 这里所谓“能力”实际上就是掌握了某种技巧、方法并能灵活运用之。
因此,找到并掌握适合于自己的方法,是问题的关键。
首先要知道写作过程的四大部分: 1.聚材分析 2.创意运思 3.构篇撰写 4.编排腾清 每部分都有相应的不同方法和技巧。
其次要知道自己在写作过程的哪部分存在不足。
这是最难的。
“人贵有自知之明”说的就是这个道理。
第三要选择适合自己特点的写作方法。
通常写作能力不足源于写作方法不对。
第四要选择必要的写作工具。
“工欲善其事,必先利其器”。
要根据自己的不足选择相应的工具加以祢补,可大大提高你的写作能力。
另外推荐一款不错的写作工具:《AHAH计算机辅助写作系统》。
它是我所知道的唯一一款以提供科学写作方法为主的写作软件。
号称融入了多位写作专家的智慧和研究成果。
它不但兼有以提供写作资源为主的软件的全部功能,还提供了很多很有特点的工具。
用户自己可以在此基础上进行充分地发挥和再创造,可越来越完善越来越适合自己。
不妨试试。

英语作文 写学习上遇到的问题
如果你是初中在读生,不妨跟着老师的步伐按要求完成各项学习任务,多花时间写单词,每个单词写10-30遍,记住为止,还要隔几天就复习一下,再在阅读中将所学词汇真正融入自己的词汇系统。
口语需要大胆,敢说,多说,自然就好。
如果是成人,想自学成材,又缺乏语言环境,最主要的一点是能不能坚持。
我的建议是多背诵。
从初中教材入手,篇篇背诵,要听着磁带背,注意模仿发音。
背诵后要默写,更正错误。
亦一开始可能需要很长时间才能将一个语料完成,慢慢速度就上来了,方法自己就会形成。
关于食品安全问题的英语作文
(一)From this incident,we can see that there are still more things to be done. Firstly,the government needs everything possible to ensure the quality of products,particularly the safety of food as this concerns everyone's life. Secondly,as for the producers,it is very important for them to be morally honest. They should never try to pursue profit or economic growth at the expense of health and life of people. Thirdly,we consumers must attach importance to the things we eat and develop an awareness of how to protect our legal rights if cheated. Only in this way will we be able to build a more secure and harmonious society. (二)Dear editor, I'm writing to tell you something about the problem of food safety. A couple of days ago,one of my classmates bought a bag of food from a supermarket. Some roommates were invited to enjoy the food. Unfortunately,after finishing it,all of them got poisoned and had stomachaches with their faces pale. They were quickly sent to a nearby hospital. A doctor examined them and gave them some medicine. They were out of danger soon after taking the medicine. This accident made me realize the seriousness of the food safety problem. I sincerely hope that the whole society pay much more attention to food safety. (三)As is known to all, food is a priority for the common people. Recently, however, reports about food problems have often been seen in the newspapers, showing that people have always been concerned about what they eat every day. The reason for this problem is that some of the food producers are too fond of making money, leading to the result that they use whatever will make the food look good or taste better without considering the bad consequences. This is not normal because people just cannot live without eating anything. So we should take all the measures necessary to forbid the food producers to make food that is not safe enough. Laws should be strengthened and the government should have more control over these producers. Only when people are no longer worried about whether their food is safe or not can they enjoy a better life. (四)Nowadays, unsafe foods can be found, now and then, in the market, which has aroused a lot of public attention. It is reported that these foodstuff ranges from substandard milk powder, dyed steamed buns to pork with lean meat powder. Fake commodities are harmful in many ways. To begin with, it is a waste of resource, especially in our country. Second, it has bad effect on the reputation of the real manufacturers and brings about moral Crisis. Above all, all that matters is food. People's health and lives are severely threatened if someone buys some unsafe foodstuff. Measures should be taken to deal with the problem. On the one hand, strict laws should be passed to punish the producers and the sellers. On the other hand, consumers should be told to distinguish the genuine goods from the false ones. At the same time, the government should strengthen the supervision of all aspects of food. I firmly believe this problem will be solved in the near future.
关于青少年问题的英语作文
Directions: Study the following cartoon carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the cartoon briefly;2) interpret the social phenomenon reflected by it, and3) give your point of view.The cartoon vividly illustrates a gang of youngsters, holding axes in their hands, are rushing to fight with others. The caption reads, “Juvenile delinquency is increasingly lower than normal age.”Careful deliberation of this problem has given me several ideas as to why this should be so. To begin with, with the rising divorce rate, some children are not properly taken care of, and are easily led astray by evildoers. What is more, devoid of the nourishment of education and a school environment, the teenagers failing in various entrance examinations become full of resentment at a society which they feel has rejected them. Last but not least, inexperienced and gullible young people plunge into the illusory world of electric games, on-line chat or even pornography. Such alienation from proper social values is the slippery slope to crime.It is my view that, first of all, the whole of society should attach great importance to the sound growth of youngsters. Furthermore, proper guidance and protection of adults and schools are vital to teenagers. To sum up, if we exert every effort, the juvenile crime rate will undoubtedly be brought down and effectively controlled in a short while.

由于中国正在迈向国际化,学习英语变得越来越重要。
但是许多人发现很难学好英语。
根据我自己的学习经验,我觉得决心,阅读英语材料和耐心是最重要的。
首先,做所有的事情都需要决心。
决心是做一件事的一个先决条件。
面对困难时,有决心的人会坚持下去,相反,那些没有决心的人则很容易放弃。
因此,如果有人想完成一件事情,他们要做的第一件事是下定决心。
其次,阅读英语材料对学习英语有很大的帮助。
它可以帮助人们提高英语语感,对英语有兴趣和信心。
这将在学习的过程中对人们的帮助很大。
