People from other places in China are giving help. Kids in different places give them water and money. Students at Yingcai Primary School in Haikou donate 2,512 bottles of water.
Li Jiahang is a 2nd grade student at Huang Cheng Gen Primary School in Beijing. “There are 47 students in my class. We give our pocket money. We hope we can help the kids to drink clean water and buy things they need.”
In China, there are 669 cities. But more than 400 cities are in great need of water. Water is important in our life. Everyone has the duty to save water in our everyday lives. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a big difference.

British English and American English
A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar（语法）. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings.
These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language.

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe by saying “no”. In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品) . Drugs are dangerous to your health!
“Because teens don't know much about drugs, they might want to try them,” said Zhang Dongsheng, the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.
Now, many schools arrange courses or organize some activities to help students know about drugs.
Liang, 16, was a good student before trying drugs. One day, some old friends told him it would be fun. After taking drugs only once, he found it very hard to stop. Liang began to spend all his time and money on drugs. Soon, he stopped going to school and started stealing. In the end, he was put in prison.
In China, taking drugs is becoming a big problem for teens. According to a survey, about one million people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. Worse still, there are about10,000 drug users under 16 now.
Zhang has some good advice on staying clean. He said, “Drugs are dangerous. Never try them, even if you’re curious! It is the most important for you to keep safe and healthy.”
