ПРИМЕРНЫЙ ТЕКСТ:

THE EARTH IS IN DANGER

The 22^nd of April is Earth Day. People all over the world think how to protect our planet.  People are ready to help nature. They think how to keep the air fresh and water clean to save animals and plants.

Water is very important for life on the Earth. There is a lot of water on our planet. But very little water is good for drinking. In many rivers and lakes the water is very dirty. The seaside is not clean so people can`t swim in the sea. Even fish die in such dirty water.  And of course it is dangerous to use it when you cook. For example, Lake Baikal is the deepest freshwater lake on the planet. It is very beautiful but now it is in great danger because of the factories near it. In some places the water in the lake is so dirty that it kills the animals and plants in the Baikal.

The way people live has changed the climate. Nowadays the temperature is rising. The climate has become milder and warmer. If the temperature grows more it will become difficult to live on our planet.

People also do a lot of harm to the forests. They cut down the trees to build farms, homes and roads. So animals lose their homes as they don`t have space to live and good things to eat. This is bad for the air too. Modern factories send a lot of smoke into the atmosphere. Nowadays it is  difficult to breathe in the big cities.
