Water is super important for all living things. It’s a key part of plants and animals. For example, about 95% of a cucumber’s weight is water. In animals, it’s usually around 60%.
When you’re born, about 70% to 80% of your body weight is water. As you grow up, this number goes down. For adult men, water makes up about 60% of their body weight. For women, it’s a bit lower, around 55%. This is because women often have a bit more body fat than men.
Every day our bodies lose a lot of water, so we need to drink water to make up for it. Adults should drink about 2 to 3 liters of water a day to stay healthy. When you go to the bathroom, you lose water. About 1.5 liters of water leave your body through urine (尿) each day. If your urine is very yellow, it means you need to drink more water. Your body also loses water through sweat to help you cool down. We lose about 500 ml of water as sweat each day.
It’s normal to sweat a lot when you play sports or go out on a hot day. But if you lose more than 5% of your body weight in water you’ll feel tired. Losing more than 10% is really dangerous and can make you sick. So remember to bring a water bottle every time you play sports.
9. Why do women have a lower percentage of water in their bodies than men?
A. Because women drink less water. B. Because women have more body fat.
C. Because women sweat less. D. Because women are less active.
10. How much water do adults need to drink daily to stay healthy?
A 1-2 liters. B. 2-3 liters. C. 3-4 liters. D. 4-5 liters.
11. What does very yellow urine indicate (暗示)?
A. You are drinking too much water. B. You need to drink more water.
C. You are exercising too much. D. You are eating too many vegetables.
12. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Water is super important for all living things.
B. About 70% to 80% of our body weight is water.
C. Body loses water through sweat to keep us cool down.
D. Remember to bring a water bottle when you play sports.

Ice cream bars made the headlines this past summer. Some of them were being called “assassins” (刺客) for their surprisingly high prices. But when they were first invented, ice cream bars were all about making people happy.
In the 1920s, Harry Burt ran a candy store in the U.S.A. One day, he developed a smooth chocolate coating. Burt first cut some ice cream into cuboids (长方体). He then covered the ice cream with the new chocolate coating.
When Burt let his children try this new dessert, his daughter said the ice cream bar was “messy” (脏的) to eat. Burt’s son then suggested adding a wooden stick to the dessert. This way, the ice cream bar was easy to take.
Burt named this dessert “Good Humor bar.” It soon became popular among his customers. Later, he sent out some trucks to sell these ice cream bars. People would know it was time for some ice cream when they heard the trucks’ bells.
Over the past century, the jingle of the trucks’ bells has always attracted kids of all ages. Today, you can still see Good Humor trucks in America.
13. Why were ice cream bars called “assassins” this past summer?
A. They were too messy to eat. B. They had surprisingly high prices.
C. They were invented by Harry Burt. D. They were sold from trucks with bells.
14. What did Harry Burt develop one day in the 1920s?
A. A candy store. B. A smooth chocolate coating.
C. A wooden stick for ice cream. D. An ice cream truck.
15 Why did Burt’s son suggest adding a wooden stick to the ice cream bar?
A. To make it look like a drink. B. To make it easier to take.
C. To make it more expensive. D. To make it look delicious.
16. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. The Expensive Ice Cream Bars. B. Who Invented Ice Cream Bars?
C. The History of Good Humor Trucks. D. The Messy and unwelcome dish.
