【正确答案】Candidate A:
This picture shows the water shortage problem is becoming more and more serious in certain regions. It has already severely affected local people's daily life and posed a threat to the economy.
Candidate B:
Definitely, this problem is becoming increasingly grave in recent years and draws great concern from both the public and the government. From your prospective, what causes the gravity of this problem?
Candidate A:
While, a number of factors could account for this. First and foremost, the ever-in-creasing population is a leading cause of water shortage. Secondly, pollution and waste of fresh water also contribute to the problem. Moreover, the global tendency of climate warming aggravates the situation.
Candidate B:
In view of the seriousness, what can we do to prevent things from getting worse?
Candidate A:
Actually, there is a diversity of measures we can take to improve the situation. Firstly, it is essential that laws and regulations be worked out and enforced to protect water resources. Secondly, more water-saving devices should be developed and utilized in agricultural and industrial production. Furthermore, people should enhance their awareness of saving water. With all these measures taken, it is reasonable for us to expect a brighter future.
