We know that healthy foods like fruit, vegetables and fish, are important as they provide us with energy and fibre, without giving us too much fat and sugar. But why is water important?The human body needs water to survive. Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies. However, doctors advise us to drink plenty of water, much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.Some doctors believe that water is important for our health in all kinds of ways. They believe that a great many illnesses and health problems start as a result of dehydration(脱水)-a lack of water in the body. Most people are dehydrated at least some of the time, although they probably don’t know it. It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty, we are already in the first stages of dehydration. In fact, we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.These doctors think that health problems such as headaches, high blood pressure and asthma(哮喘) could be helped if people drank more water. They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are overweight. Water contains no calories so it will notmake us put on weight. If we drink water, we will probably drink less sugary soft drink such as Coca-Cola. Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating. They say that many people think they are hungry when they are, in fact, thirsty. Doctors suggest, therefore, that we eat less food and drink more water.46.

Anyone who does is told off by the teacher and their phone is taken away from them for a few days.Despite the new school rules, most students will follow the fashion and get a mobile phone anyway. Besides, it’s not hard for a family to buy their child a reasonably –priced phone. So when and where is it polite for you to make and answer a phone call?Yu believe people should think of others when they use their phones on the bus.“Some people often raise their voices to be heard over the noise. They must feel embarrassed(尴尬的) when everyone on the bus can hear what they are saying,” she said. “If I were them, I would return the call after I got off the bus, if it wasn’t in a hurry.”“Everyone should have mobile phone manners in mind when they are in a public place,”she added.54.
