Water
Read a short passage about how the simplest drink became essential for life and well-being.
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.
水は私たちが毎日必要とする飲み物です。透明で味はありません。しかし、水は私たちの体がうまく機能するために非常に重要です。私たちは喉の渇きを癒し、健康を保つために水を飲みます。
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.
人々は古代から水を飲んでいます。昔は川や井戸から水を飲んでいました。彼らはなぜか理解していなかったけれども、水が自分たちにとって良いことを知っていました。
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.
今日では、私たちは多くの場所から水を得ることができます。家の蛇口から飲むこともできますし、店でボトル入りの水を買うこともできます。レモンやイチゴなどの風味を加えて、味を良くする人もいます。
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.
水を飲むことには多くの利点があります。それは私たちが水分を保つのを助け、体が乾きすぎるのを防ぎます。水分を保っていると、気分が良くなり、より多くのエネルギーを得られます。水はまた、体から老廃物や毒素を取り除くのを助けます。
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.
時々、私たちは水の代わりにジュースやソーダなどの他のものを飲みます。これらの飲み物はおいしいかもしれませんが、しばしばたくさんの糖分や私たちにとって良くない他のものが含まれています。水は糖分やカロリーがないので、最も健康的な選択です。
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.
毎日十分な水を飲むことは重要です。医師は約8杯の水を飲むべきだと言っていますが、それは人によって異なる場合があります。私たちは自分の体に耳を傾け、喉が渇いたときに水を飲むべきです。
Fun fact : Did you know that water makes up about 60% of our bodies? That is more than half!
**豆知識**: 私たちの体の約60％が水でできていることを知っていましたか？それは半分以上です！
