Who is willing to drink the polluting water? It can cause us to be ill but even to die. We can’t wait for the moment to protect our water sources. The water we use coming from the ocean, lakes, rivers or streams. But many of these water sources are getting serious polluted. Towns and cities pump sewage（污水）into the water. Many people are throwing all kinds dirty things into the water. Factories poured waste material into the water. Therefore, water sources have become so badly polluted that some of the water is fit to drink or use it. Now it is high time when we should do something to protect our water environment from being polluted.

   Dragging a sleigh loaded with enough presents for the world’s children can be no easy skill. But, since ancient times, the Christmas Eve duty has been performed by a team of beloved reindeer.

Soon, however, Santa Claus may have to start looking around for a stronger type of animal, as newresearch shows the species is becoming increasingly puny. A 16-year survey on the arctic Norwegian islands, Svalbard, found the reindeer there have declined in weight by an alarming 12 percent.

The reduction in average body weight is being blamed on global warming. In the research presented lately at a meeting of the British Ecological Society in Liverpool, scientists have explained how upward temperatures are robbing female reindeer of nutrients during important periods of pregnancy.

Snow in Svalbard typically covers the ground for eight months of a year, which, combined with low temperatures, limits grass growth to June and July. But as summer temperatures increase by around 1. 5℃, grass has become more productive, allowing female reindeer to gain more weight by autumn and therefore to have more babies. However, winters have brought with them greater rainfall which freezes when it settles on the snow. Reindeer can often access the poor food sources beneath the snow by clearing it away with their antlers (鹿角) , but they cannot break through the hard ice. As a result, female reindeer are becoming starved, causing them to lose their babies or give birth to the much lighter young.

Despite the findings, reindeer appear to be suffering less from the effect of climate change than some other arctic species. Last week the scientists warned that a third of the world’s polar bears could disappear in the next 40 years.

In many countries today, laws protect wildlife. In India, the need for such protection 【小题1】（realize）centuries ago. About 300 years ago, 【小题2】 Indian writer described forests 【小题3】   were somewhat like national parks today. The killing of animals was 【小题4】（careful）supervised（监督）. Some animals were fully protected in the forest. Nobody was allowed 【小题5】（cut）timber（木材）, burn wood for charcoal, or catch animals for their fur. Animals which became 【小题6】（danger） to human visitors were caught or killed outside the park, so that other animals would not become uneasy.

The need for wildlife protection is 【小题7】（great）now than before. About a thousand species of animals are in danger of dying out, and the rate at which they are being destroyed 【小题8】（increase）. If we don't take 【小题9】（measure）to protect wildlife,some day our children will see no living creatures 【小题10】 themselves.
