for every drop of water that is taken from one place, another drop is put back from somewhere

cloud. No water has been lost. 
But nature does not put water where and when we need it. While some men are drowning,

They called New York “the Big Apple”. Maybe it’s not exactly like an apple, but it’s 
certainly very big. There are too many people, and that’s the problem. The streets are always full 
of cars and trucks, and you can never find a place to park. 
If you have enough money, you can take a taxi. New York cabs are yellow. They look all 
the same. But the drivers are very different. Some were born and raised in New York, but many 
are newcomers to the United States. A few drive slowly, but most go very, very fast. Cab driving 
is a difficult job. It can be dangerous, too. Thieves often try to steal the drivers’ money. Drivers 
sometimes get hurt. 
If you don’t want to take a taxi, you can go by bus or you can take the subway.The subway is 
quick, and it’s cheap, but many parts of it are old and dirty. Lights don’t always work and there are 
often fires on the track. On some subway lines, there are new, clean, silver trains. But you can’t see 
the color of the old trains easily. There is too much dirt and too much graffiti, inside and outside.
