My common sense told me that all habits ---- even good ones ---- should be 23 from time to time. Doing everything together with my wife had become very much of a habit with me. So I had gone off to Italy 24 my own to spend three weeks at a hotel at the seaside. I had hoped it would be nice and warm. But actually it was 35 in the shade, 25 enough to roast an ox.

Those are the words my mother used to hear all the time. In return, I heard, " Why don't you get a job? Not to make me happy, but so that you have your own money and gain a bit more responsibility." So last year I got a job working about 25 hours a week. For $5 an hour, working as a salesman in a photo studio. After I got this 21 , I had to do football, homework and job at the same time. It was really hard for me. I was burning out, falling asleep at school and failing 22 many courses.

This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75% of the earth's surface 21 covered with water. But about 97% of this huge 22 is seawater, 23 salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% of the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes, underground, and other 24 . And we can't even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted. However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, 25 is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need 26 water is increasing rapidly-almost day by day. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our 27 water. One of the first steps we should 28 is to develop ways of reusing it.Experiments have already been done in this 29 , but only on a small scale.
