Julia	In 2050, there won’t be enough water．Some places will be drier and people will not be able to have enough food．There may be serious water shortage (缺乏)．
Ashley	Don’t be so worried about that, Julia! People will work out this problem．And I think there will be less water pollution．Water will be much cleaner than it is now．
