One fresh sunny day，while I was swimming in the water，I felt something special going through my gills(鳃).It was a different kind of water. I also found many of my friends became sick. Some of them were dying. I was starting to worry because I didn't want to get sick or die. I was also thinking about what I should do to save my friends，so I decided to do some research for my underwater life.
My research started. At first，I noticed there were many bottles，cans and other kinds of rubbish in the water. Then I went on… I got closer and then I tasted many different kinds of liquid(液体).(A)To my surprise，I noticed a man pouring some liquid into the water. Others also saw him doing so and they decided to follow him. I hated it! I wish I could have told them that it was killing us!
I think it is so stupid for people to do this to the earth that they are living on! I can't understand (B)_____ they are doing this. Humans should stop throwing waste into the lakes or rivers. I want to have a normal life with my friends. People should stop being so selfish and care about the environment. If they do that，everyone will be fine and will have nothing to worry about.
