What do a person, a tree and a bird have in common? _16_ All living things must have water to survive, whether they get it from a water fountain, a rain cloud or a little bottle attached to the side of a cage. Water is especially important to us human beings.
_17_ Water makes up more than half of our body weight. A person can't survive for more than a few days without water. Why? Our bodies have lots of important jobs and they need water to do many of them. _18_ Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and our bodies would stop working.
Water is also an important part in lymph (淋巴液), a fluid that is part of our immune system and helps us fight off illness. _19_ Water is needed for digestive juices, urine (小便) and crap (大便). And water is the main ingredient in sweat.
Our bodies don't get water only from drinking water. Any fluid we drink contains water, but water and milk are the best choices. _20_ Fruit contains quite a lot of water, and we can tell that if we bite into a peach or a pear and feel the juice dripping down our chins! Vegetables, too, contain a lot of water --- think of cutting a fat tomato from the garden.
A. They all need water.
B. Nobody can deny the fact.
C. Lots of foods contain water, too.
D. How much we drink is important.
E. Without water, our bodies would stop working properly.
F. We need water to digest our food and get rid of waste, too.
G. For instance, our blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of our bodies.
