Water has always been necessary for our health. Then what kind of water do you drink, tap water or bottled water? Do you get a healthier, safer and more refreshing(提神的) drink when you buy bottled water off the shelf? My answer is "no", and doing so hurts the environment and your wallet.

    First of all, there are no studies showing that bottled water is better for you, and in fact, it may be less safe than tap water. A study of over l, 000 people in Belfast found that they couldn't tell the differences between tap water and bottled water when asked which was purer, more pleasant, natural and refreshing. Bottled water can come from springs(泉水) or from the mountains. It can also be treated, for example, to have iron(铁) removed. It is reported that there is around 82.8g of CO₂ for a half-liter(半公升) bottle. This will be harmful to people's health when everyone's drinking it. However, bottled water is popular with many people. Its success is from excellent marketing and our laziness in filling reusable bottles with tap water.

    Secondly, bottled water can cost between 500 to 1, 000 times more than dap water. In 2015, the UK drank 2.4 billion liters o of bottled water, and by 2016 this had risen to 2.6 billion liters. Yet, you get this from the tap, for free.

    Besides, recycling is improving, but in America, it is said that only a quarter of bottles can be used again. So is it really so much better that it is worth both paying for and harming the earth? Or should you stop buying it?

    As a general rude, I believe that most of us should enjoy more tap water, and stop using so many bottles.

    A about 6.0-magnitude(震级) earthquake(地震) hit Yi'bin, Sichuan at 22:55 on June 17th, 2019,and it killed at least 12 people and injured(受伤的) more than 220.

    Many people in Chongqing felt it. Most of them rushed out to the safe places such as the square, the playground, the street .But some didn't.

    What can we do when an earthquake happens? In fact, there's little we can do to stop natural disasters(自然灾害) such as earthquakes happening. But, some methods can reduce(减少) the harm they cause.

    Drop down onto your hands and knees. This way can protect you from falling.

    Cover your head under a strong table or desk. You can also stay along a wall, and cover your head with your arms and hands.

    Hold on to(守住，抓牢) your shelter(遮蔽物) until the shaking stops. Be prepared to move with your shelter if the shaking continues.

Schools can normally take the earthquake drills(演练) to help student stay alive.

People at some time feel life is stagnating (停滞的) and think life is not very exciting.

Then, they need to do something to improve the quality of life. Life is what people make it. So, read the list of things to do now to make life better and more enjoyable.

Help Others

One of the best ways of creating positivity is to help other people. Those who often help others do feel good about themselves, and other people will benefit from involvement (参与). They can offer help in a shop or in the old people's home.

Take Up a Hobby

Hobbies are great because they can give people something different to do. When someone leads a boring life, it is great to have something to think about. It will take him into another world. They love to read, spending time just sitting with a book and losing themselves in an imaginary world.

Learn a Skill

A great way to learn a skill is to join a class. Not only will they learn a skill, but also they will make new friends in the class. Whether they are going to learn to cook or play a musical instrument, there is always a class near their homes.
