   A new study warns that about thirty percent of the world’S people may not have enough  water by the year 2025．

    A private American organization called Population Action International did the new  study．It says more than 335 million people lack enough water now．The people live in 28  countries．Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East．

    P—A—I researcher Robert Engelman says by the year 2025，about 3，000 million people may lack water．At least 18 more countries are expected to have severe water problems．The

demand for water keeps increasing．Yet the amount of water on Earth stays the same．

   Mr．Engelman says the population in countries that lack water is growing faster than ini other parts of the world．He says population growth in these countries will continue to increase．

 The  report says lack of water in the future may result in several problems．It may increase health problems．Lack of water often means drinking waters not safe．Mr．Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases，such as cholera。

which are carried in water．Lack of water may also result in more international conflict．Countries may have to compete for water in the future．Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries．This is true of Egypt，the Netherlands，Cambodia，Syria，Sudan，and Iraq．And the report says lack of water would affect the ability of developing to improve their economies．This is because new industries often need a large amount of water when they are beginning．

   The Population Action International study gives several solutions to the water problem．One way，it says，is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose．Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water．A third way is to use less water of agriculture．

  The report also says long--term solutions to the water problem must include controls on population growth．It says countries cannot provide clean water unless they slow population growth by limiting the number of children people have．

　　Tattoos(紋身)and body piercings(穿洞)have moved up on the trend list in recent years．Around Western schools lots of teens are sporting new holes and flesh ink．Like all other subjects, we'll surely be faced with such situation．To get a better view of what has happened in the West, let's sit down and hear what they say．

　　Kerstin Otto from Washington：

　　The hotter it gets and the more layers of clothing disappear, the more tattoos and piercings appear on various places of the human body, I wouldn't be caught dead with a snake tattooed on my ankle or with a piece of metal stuck in my belly button．

　　Erin from Indiana：

　　I think body piercing is cool．In most situations, you don't really have to worry about it getting torn out．I go to Noblesville High School．I am a sophomore(that is the l0th grade)．Body piercing can be cool, only if it is not taken to too much of an extent．I would not want to get my nose pierced, just because I think I'll look bad．But that is my personal opinion．I guess that type of thing is a cultural difference．

　　Tiara from Indiana：

　　I personally think body piercing is sickening．If there were supposed to be holes in your body, you would have been born with them．I do, however, think that ear piercing, is not wrong．There is a difference between ear piercing and belly button piercing．Ear piercing is not nearly as dangerous．I would be sick if someone stuck a needle in my belly button．

　　Lee from Illinois：

　　Hi!I live in Illinois．I am 23．I have 12 tattoos and three piercings．I love my tattoos and consider myself an art collector．You would be surprised at who has given me the thumbs-up on my art work．People on the street stop me to look at that on my leg．Most of them don't know what it is．They just think the work itself is great．

　　Subotai from California：

　　I'm not prohibitive(禁止)of self-expression, but when I see high school students getting these piercings, I really wonder．In some cases, the drive is deeper and darker than mere fashion．A friend of mine tried piercing her own tongue with a safety pin．It got infected and she had a tongue the size of a cow's．

　　Nagib from Washington：

　　I wanted an earring．My friends had them and it looked like a cool thing．I wanted to get a nose ring, but my mum wouldn't let me．Now I'm glad I didn't get it．I just wanted a little stud, but I wouldn't have looked good with it．

　　Jackson from Ohio：

　　I don't think it's wrong, but when people do it all over the place like their face and everything －I think that's ridiculous．People who get the big dragons that cover your whole body－I don't think that's necessary．When I see naked chicks on guys, I think．“You have no respect for women．”

　　Brittney from New York：

　　You don't want to do stuff to your body．You don t need to do that because you were made perfect．You don't need to add piercings．If it will make you feel beautiful and you really feel like you need to do it for yourself, then okay．If it really makes a big difference impacting your self-esteem and how you are towards others, then do it．But otherwise, don't mess with what you got．Maybe you should try something more substantial(充實的)to find beauty in yourself．
