It would be hard for a family to live on 300 yuan a month, wouldn’t it?

That’s how much Li Hua’s family have to live on for a whole year. The world is now trying to help people like Li Hua to live better.

（1）From Tuesday until today, about 2000 government leaders, scientists met in Shanghai to talk about stopping poverty (貧窮) around the world.

According to the United Nations, the poorest people in the world live on less than 8.5 yuan a day.

Most of those people live in African countries like Sierra Leone and Somalia. These countries often have wars and lots of diseases. (2)Now, more than 1 billion people in the world live in poverty. The UN said that by 2015, that number should be cut in half.

To help China’s poor places, the World Bank has given more than 37 billion yuan to help China build railways and schools and stop river pollution and deserts.

Many places in China’s countryside, like Li Hua’s home in Chongqing, are very poor. Li Hua, 13, lives with her mother, two grandparents and 16-year-old brother in Chongqing. Her father is dead. The family makes their living by planting crops. They have no TV, no electric fan and no telephone.

Ladies and gentlemen, I returned to this year in a time machine. In the year 2500, we are able to travel through time to any year in the history of the earth. This year is your last chance your lifestyle to save the earth.

  Beginning in the middle of the 20^th century, a few people were worried about polluting the earth’s water and air, but most people did not change their way of life. Instead, they continued to pour(倒) dangerous chemical(化學物品) and other waste into lakes and seas, to drive more and more cars and trucks, and to cut down trees.

  By the year 2200, the earth’s water was completely polluted. People could no longer drink water, and they had to use other types of liquids(液體). Scientists said that in the future there might be too many people on the earth. But not enough was done.

  So by the year 2300, there were so many people that food became scarce. There was no water to grow food and all of the fish in lakes and seas died because of pollution. Terrible wars broke out between the rich and the poor. Scientists were working very hard to find another planet in space where humans could live.

  By the year 2400, the air was too polluted for humans to breathe. So we had to leave the earth. But only the rich were able to leave. Where did we go? Nowhere. And everywhere. You see scientists did not find another safe planet, so now we must travel around the universe in our space ships. We are still looking for a place to call our home.

  So it is up to you to change history. There is still hope. You must change your lifestyle now, before it is too late.
