The world is not hungry, but it is thirsty. It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the Earth is covered with water while we say we are short of water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can’t drink or use for watering plants directly. Man can only drink and use the 3% of the water that comes from rivers and lakes. And we can’t even use all of that, because some of it has been polluted.
Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Second, we should find out the ways to reuse it. Scientists have always been making study in this field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers. But it can be used again. Even if every large city reused its water, there still would not be enough. What could people turn to do next?
The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it’s already in use in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we’ll be in no danger of drying up.

Every day our world becomes smaller and smaller. Modern life changes so quickly. Today, planes fly across the oceans very fast; for example, it is possible to fly from London to New York in three and a half hours on a jet plane. Also, we watch the Olympic Games and other international events on television at home through satellites. And all over the world, computers control many banking systems and industries. Computers also make communication between people easier and faster.
Other changes make the world smaller too. For instance, more people travel abroad today. Businessmen, tourists, scientists, students, political leaders, and film stars visit many countries each year. Students and scientists go to foreign universities and research institutes; businessmen from international companies work in their branch offices abroad.
Styles of clothing are more and more universal, too. Australian stores sell shoes made in Spain or Italy. Young people in many countries all over the world buy American blue jeans. All these modern changes make our world a smaller place – a kind of “global village”.
