Water all around us
Water has no taste at all.
Water has no smell.
Water's in the waterfall,
The pump,the tap,the well.
Water's everywhere around us.
Water's in the rain,
In the bath and in the pond,And in the sea again.

A class trip to the beach
1 It's very hot today.You can go for a swim in the sea.
2 It's very hot today.I'm thirsty.
3 I need a drink of water.
4 It's time to go back to school now.
Put your rubbish in the bin.
Oh,no.It's raining.

Look and say
When we went to the beach,we saw water and we used it.
Where can we see water?
In the sea.That's water.
We saw the rain.That's water,too.
Yes,it is.
How do we use water?We use water to have a shower.
We use water to drink.
We swim in the sea.

Using water
At home,we use water...
to wash clothes
to wash the dishes
to cook rice
to clean the flat
to have showers
to make drinks
to clean our teeth
to have a bath
At work,people use water...
to put out fires
to grow vegetables
to make things in factories

Water in Garden City
Every day,people in Garden City use millions of litres of water.
We use water in our homes and in factories,
but there is not much water in Garden City.
There are no big rivers.In winter,not much rain falls.
Most of the water comes from other places.
First,it comes through very long,wide pipes.
Next,it goes into reservoirs in Garden City.
Then a special factory makes the water clean.
Finally,it goes through pipes to our homes.

Excuse me,Mr Hu.Where does rain come from?
I know!It comes from the clouds.
Where does it come from first?Let's look at this poster.

1 Water comes from the sea.
2 The water makes clouds.
3 The wind blows the clouds to the land.
4 It rains.

First...Next....Then....Finally,...
We use water to make drinks.

Where does water come from?
Water comes from the sea.
