You don’t always use the car because sometimes you can take a bus, or walk or ride a bike. This ishealthier for the city, as there will be fewer cars on the road. It is also healthier for you. 11. Work in pairs and discuss this question.Do you think car clubs would be popular in China Why/Why not e.g. I think car clubs will become popular in China, because more and more people pay attention to environmental protection, fewer people buy cars, people can go to car clubs to rent cars when they need them.World population and waterWith more and more people in the world, more and more water is used.

Write a paragraph to describe your graph.SampleIn the graph, we can see how the population in the town changed between 1900 and 2000. We can see the population going up the vertical line and the years going across the horizontal line.The graph shows the population increased by more than one hundred percent from two and a half million to five million in one hundred years.At first it increased very slowly, but after 1945 it increased much more quickly. From 1990 to 2000, the population even increased by one million. The town itself also grew in size during this time.15. Present your graph to the class.1.
