Imagine one day, the water taps in your house stop running. You have to buy water from shops. And still there {#blank#}1{#/blank#}water for everyone. Your mother has to save the family's shower water to do other things. Would you be able to stand that kind of life?

    Probably not. But that's what kids in Yemen are experiencing. Experts said Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}a report, the capital, Sana'a, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025.

    Because of the shortage, the government often cuts the water supply. Hannan, an 18-year-old girl from Lahej, told the Times: "In a good week we'll have the water supply all week. But then the following week there will be water only for {#blank#}3{#/blank#}."

    Hannan said only rich people have enough water to use. They can buy water from the shops or from the water trucks. Private companies own the trucks. They {#blank#}4{#/blank#}every day to sell water—at very high prices. "A lot of people can't afford it," she said.

    The government is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}making use of seawater. But it will cost a lot and it may not happen soon enough to help the people of Yemen.

Do you want to travel all over the world by bus? A travel company in India can give you such a great bus trip. The bus starts from Delhi to London and crosses 18 countries during 70 days. It can carry 20 tourists one time and they can get on and get off on the way at any time. 

"The idea of the bus travel is from my drive from London to Delhi in 2010, "Agarwal, one of the managers of the travel company says. "A lot of people want to have these overland(陆上的)travels, but they don't want to drive. On our bus travel, people will sit comfortably on the way. And they can stop their travel at any time. "

 ▲ , and one needs over $ 20, 000. But after knowing the idea of the bus travel, lots of tourists call the company to ask more about it every day. Over 40 , o00 people want to try the bus travel. 

There is a great plan to build a "wood (木材) city" of 2,000 homes and 7,000 offices in Sweden. The work in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, will be the world's largest wood construction (建造) plan. Stockholm Wood City, in the south of the city, will cover 250,000 m². It will have restaurants and shops.

Wooden buildings can help the environment. As they grow, trees take in CO₂from the air. CO₂is a greenhouse gas. It keeps the sun's heat (热气) in the air, making temperatures (温度) go up and the weather become hot. Using wood to build houses is good for our world.

However, to build wooden buildings, we should get wood from forests. Workers cut down trees, but later, they have to plant new trees to replace old ones. Wooden houses are safe if we build them correctly (适当地), but there are also worries that wooden buildings are in danger of fire (火).

Construction will start in 2025 and the first buildings should be ready in 2027. Annica Anas works for the company to run the project. She says the wooden buildings are special and that it is important for them to "make a good difference".

"Dream may be more important than sleep. We all need to dream," some scientists say. Dreams take up (占据) about half of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night.

Dreams are like short films. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of trying to find an answer.

Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may think about their work all day. These ideas can carry over into dreams. Sometimes we wake up with a good feeling from a nice dream. But often we can't remember the dream. Dreams can go away quickly from memory.

But too much dreaming can be harmful. The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is working hard when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up exhausted. We may feel sleepy the whole day.
