Water

Read a short passage about how the simplest drink became essential for life and well-being.

1.1

Water is a drink that we need every day. It is clear and tastes like nothing. But water is super important for our bodies to work well. We drink water to quench our thirst and to keep us healthy.

पानी एक पेय है जिसकी हमें हर दिन आवश्यकता होती है। यह साफ और बेस्वाद होता है। लेकिन हमारे शरीर को अच्छी तरह से काम करने के लिए पानी बहुत महत्वपूर्ण है। हम प्यास बुझाने और स्वस्थ रहने के लिए पानी पीते हैं।

1.2

People have been drinking water since ancient times. In the old days, they drank water from rivers and wells. They knew water was good for them, even though they did not understand why.

प्राचीन काल से लोग पानी पीते आ रहे हैं। पुराने दिनों में, वे नदियों और कुओं से पानी पीते थे। वे जानते थे कि पानी उनके लिए अच्छा है, भले ही वे समझ नहीं पाते थे क्यों।

1.3

Nowadays, we can get water from many places. We can drink it from the tap in our homes, or we can buy bottles of water from stores. Some people add flavors to their water, like lemon or strawberry, to make it taste better.

आजकल, हम पानी कई जगहों से प्राप्त कर सकते हैं। हम इसे अपने घरों के नल से पी सकते हैं, या हम दुकानों से पानी की बोतलें खरीद सकते हैं। कुछ लोग अपने पानी में नींबू या स्ट्रॉबेरी जैसे स्वाद जोड़ते हैं, ताकि इसका स्वाद बेहतर बन सके।

Water
1.4

Drinking water has many benefits. It helps us stay hydrated, which means it keeps our bodies from getting too dry. When we are hydrated, we feel better and have more energy. Water also helps our bodies get rid of waste and toxins.

पानी पीने के कई फायदे हैं। यह हमें हाइड्रेटेड रहने में मदद करता है, जिसका अर्थ है कि यह हमारे शरीर को बहुत सूखने से बचाता है। जब हम हाइड्रेटेड होते हैं, तो हम बेहतर महसूस करते हैं और हमारे पास अधिक ऊर्जा होती है। पानी हमारे शरीर को अपशिष्ट और विषाक्त पदार्थों से छुटकारा पाने में भी मदद करता है।

1.5

Sometimes, we drink other things instead of water, like juice or soda. These drinks can be tasty, but they often have lots of sugar and other things that are not good for us. Water is the healthiest choice because it has no sugar or calories.

कभी-कभी, हम पानी के बजाय अन्य चीजें पीते हैं, जैसे जूस या सोडा। ये पेय स्वादिष्ट हो सकते हैं, लेकिन इनमें अक्सर बहुत सारी चीनी और अन्य चीजें होती हैं जो हमारे लिए अच्छी नहीं होती हैं। पानी सबसे स्वस्थ विकल्प है क्योंकि इसमें चीनी या कैलोरी नहीं होती।

1.6

It is important to drink enough water every day. Doctors say we should drink about 8 cups of water, but it can be different for everyone. We should listen to our bodies and drink when we are thirsty.

हर दिन पर्याप्त पानी पीना महत्वपूर्ण है। डॉक्टर कहते हैं कि हमें लगभग 8 कप पानी पीना चाहिए, लेकिन यह हर किसी के लिए अलग हो सकता है। हमें अपने शरीर को सुनना चाहिए और प्यास लगने पर पानी पीना चाहिए।

1.7

Fun fact : Did you know that water makes up about 60% of our bodies? That is more than half!

**मजेदार तथ्य**: क्या आप जानते हैं कि हमारे शरीर का लगभग 60% पानी है? यह आधे से भी अधिक है!
