More than 20countries have found cases of the new H1N1 influenza virus （病毒）。In all around 1,500 cases and 30 deaths have been true, But most have been reported in Mexico and, to a much lesser extent, the United States. The virus was discovered in Mexico in the middle of March.

On Tuesday, federal officials in the United States advised school not to close any more when they have cases. Then new health secretary , Kathleen Sebelius, said the virus does not seem to be as severe （嚴重的） as once thought.

 The Word Health Organization will not declare an influenza pandemic （流行全世界的） unless a virus becomes widespread in at least two areas of the world. The W. H. O. is advising people to wash their hands often with soap and water. And it says there is no danger of infection （傳染） from eating well – cooked meat form pigs. The danger of H1N1 may have eased （減輕） in recent days. But public health officials point out that flu viruses can return more aggressively （攻擊性地）after a few months. That happened with the so-called Spanish flu of 1918 which killed millions worldwide.

    Much less than one percent of the earth's water can be used by humans. Areas that need a lot of water often have to bring it in from far away. For example, southern and central California get most of their water from northern California. The Middle East and Mexico are among the places where large areas are short of water. Much of the shortage (短缺) in such places is caused by poor use of water, such as pollution and waste.

    Most places have enough water for drinking, farming and industries. However, as cities grow larger and industries expand, more and more water is needed. This may mean that more sources (來源) of water need to be found. But by saving water, existing (現(xiàn)有的) water can be used longer. This allows towns, cities and industries to grow without the need to find more water sources.

    What are some ways that ordinary people can save water?

A survey shows that washing clothes, taking showers and using toilets make up about 80 percent of a family's water usage. So using showerheads, toilets, and taps that use less water can help save a lot of water in the home.
