水资源 

　　中国水资源总量位居世界前列。但人均拥有量却低于许多国家，仅相当于世界人均占有量的1/4。  

　　中国江河湖泊众多，主要河流有长江、黄河、珠江、雅鲁藏布江、松花江等；主要湖泊有洞庭湖、鄱阳湖、洪泽湖、太湖、巢湖等。另外，冰川面积也比较大，是重要的淡水资源。

　　中国水资源地区分布不均匀。总的来说是东南多，西北少，由东南向西北递减。  

　　The total amount of water resources in China leads the world. But water per capita is only a quarter of the world average.

　　China abounds in rivers and lakes. The main ones are the Yangtze River, Yellow River, Pearl River, Yarlung Zangbo River and Songhua River, in terms of freshwater lakes, the main ones already mentioned are Dongting Lake, Poyang Lake, Hongze Lake, Taihu Lake and Chaohu Lake. In addition, there is a large area of glaciers that are an important freshwater source. 

　　China's water resources are unevenly distributed. General speaking, there is much more water in southeast than in northwest. The water resources descend from southeast to northwest.
