题目：淡水短缺的原因和建议措施

People around the world are confronted with serious shortage of freshwater. What are the reasons ? How to solve the problem?

分析:

这是原因分析的题目, 要求考生能够从不同的侧面分析一个现象或者事件发生的原因或者诱发因素. 考生答卷第一段应该陈述命题的问题,中间主体锻炼需要包含至少两个方面, 一般三个方面的因素分析. 这要求考生陈述原因时候, 段落的层次安排符合逻辑思维习惯.

原因分析题目是英语写作考试的大题型之一. 考生平素需要训练自己观察和分析的能力. 那些希望背诵一篇范文就上考场的被动性学习方法绝对不能解决问题.因此考生应该养成良好的探索问题原因的习惯, 这个才是学习和测试的主要目的, 也是真正的应试方法.

Tuning to the BBC or CNN, one is besieged by (news about) formidabledisasters, diseases, conflicts, and controversies. But none is more challengingthan the shortage of fresh water, a source which has long been mistakenlyassumed to be inexhaustible. Unfortunately, few people realize the impending(急迫的)potential catastrophe (灾难)arising from the insufficient fresh water.Governments must be blamed if they have not informed people the importance offresh water.

Fresh water has been closed associated with life, not only the life ofhuman beings, but also the life of all kinds of plants and animals. Lackingfresh water, the earth will become ill. Nevertheless, human beings areconfronted with the crisis of insufficient fresh water.

The shortage of fresh water can be attributed to the lower ficiency inwater utilization. The irrigation in many countries wastes overwhelmingly. Somedeveloping countries still use the primitive irrigation system, which isbelieved to waste at least 70% fresh water.

Life water utilization also shows strikingly lower ficiency. Manycitizens have no concept of saving water. In most cities in China, fresh wateris used to flush lavatories. Moreover, most citizens use wash-machine, whichconsumes a larger volume of fresh water.

Besides, fresh water has been polluted by agriculture and industryactivities. Aquatic(水)ecosystem has largely been ruined by unrestricted drainage(排水)of sewages (污水). In metropolis (big cities大都市), the hospitals andlaboratories are also the serious sources of water pollution.

Governments are expected to launch campaigns against water pollution.Individuals, households, and the states all should use their unique ways to savethe limited resources.
