　　Task:Some people think they have the right to use as much fresh water as they want, while others believe governments should tightly control the use of fresh water as it is a limited resource. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

　　Sample answer:

　　When it comes to the issue about the use of fresh water, some people argue that they are entitled to consume fresh water without limitation, but others believe that the use of fresh water should be controlled by governments strictly.

　　On one hand, individuals have the right to use fresh water as long as they pay for it. Fresh water is also a kind of commodity. When a person paid money for fresh water, theoretically, this person possesses the property right of fresh water paid and such a property right is guaranteed by laws in most countries. Therefore, if citizens are able to afford the price of fresh water, their right of using water should be protected.

　　On the other hand, since fresh water is an infinite resource, excessive use of fresh water needs to be prohibited by the authorities. It is acknowledged that fresh water accounts for less than 1% of total water resources on the earth and many regions lack fresh water currently. If governments do not punish people who waste such a precious resource, in the future, fresh water may be exhausted and human beings may not find the alternative so quickly. Thus, in order to maintain the environmental sustainability, city councils need to regulate citizens’ behavior.

　　From my own perspective, it is unrealistic and immoral for individuals to use water excessively, but residents may also suffer if governments strictly limit the use of fresh water. A compromise may be that governments do not utilize political power, but economic measures to raise the public’s environmental awareness. To be more specific, if individuals or enterprises consume too much water, the price of fresh water will be much higher for them, which aims to remind them of the necessity of recycling water. For ordinary citizens, if they just use water within a normal range, there is no need to impose extra fines on them.
