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.

Woda to napój, którego potrzebujemy każdego dnia. Jest przejrzysta i nie ma smaku. Ale woda jest super ważna, aby nasze ciała działały dobrze. Pijemy wodę, aby ugasić pragnienie i zachować zdrowie.

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.

Ludzie piją wodę od czasów starożytnych. W dawnych czasach pili wodę z rzek i studni. Wiedzieli, że woda jest dla nich dobra, chociaż nie rozumieli dlaczego.

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.

W dzisiejszych czasach możemy otrzymać wodę z wielu miejsc. Możemy pić ją z kranu w naszych domach lub możemy kupować butelki wody w sklepach. Niektórzy dodają do swojej wody smaki, takie jak cytryna czy truskawka, aby poprawić jej smak.

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.

Picie wody ma wiele korzyści. Pomaga nam utrzymywać nawodnienie, co oznacza, że zapobiega nadmiernemu wysuszeniu naszego ciała. Kiedy jesteśmy nawodnieni, czujemy się lepiej i mamy więcej energii. Woda pomaga również naszemu organizmowi pozbyć się odpadów i toksyn.

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.

Czasami pijemy coś innego zamiast wody, na przykład sok lub napój gazowany. Te napoje mogą być smaczne, ale często zawierają dużo cukru i innych rzeczy, które nie są dla nas dobre. Woda jest najzdrowszym wyborem, ponieważ nie zawiera cukru ani kalorii.

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.

Ważne jest, aby codziennie pić wystarczającą ilość wody. Lekarze mówią, że powinniśmy pić około 8 szklanek wody, ale może to być różne dla każdego. Powinniśmy słuchać naszego ciała i pić, gdy jesteśmy spragnieni.

1.7

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

**Ciekawostka**: Czy wiesz, że woda stanowi około 60% naszego ciała? To więcej niż połowa!
