2. I seldom drink water. / I drink water every day.
3 I never drink tap water. / I usually drink bottled water.
4. Bottled water produces a lot of ecological problems. / Plastic bottles pollute the environment.
5. Drinking water is important because most of our body is water. When your water intake doesn’t equal your output, you can become dehydrated. Without water, our body would stop working properly. Water makes up more than half of your body weight and a person can't survive for more than a few days without it. Since water is so important, you might wonder if you're drinking enough. There is no magic amount of water that kids need to drink every day. Usually, kids like to drink something with meals and should definitely drink when they are thirsty. But when it's warm out or you're exercising, you'll need more.
Be sure to drink some extra water when you're out in warm weather, especially while playing sports or exercising.
6. When you drink is also important. If you're going to sports practice, a game, or just working out or playing hard, drink water before, during, and after playing. Don't forget your water bottle. You can't play your best when you're thinking about how thirsty you are!
7. The foods you eat supply about 20% of the water you need. The rest comes from the beverages you drink. One method of determining your need for water is by taking your weight in kilograms (kg) and dividing it by 0.024.
| Weight in kg | Litres Per Day |
|---|---|
| 55 | 2.29 |
| 60 | 2.50 |
| 65 | 2.71 |
| 70 | 2.92 |
| 75 | 3.13 |
| 80 | 3.33 |
