Of all the things we eat and drink, water is the most important. Not all people realize this, but it is quite true. The human body can live without food for a long time, but two or three days without water usually result in death.

 Many people do not understand how much water the human body needs, but many people do not drink enough, especially in the hot weather. Most people drink when they are thirsty but often need more water after exercises.

  65 to 70 percent of the human body is water. Water is important in several different ways. Most people need five to seven litres of water every day, but we need not drink this amount because a lot comes from the food we have. If we don’t have enough water, however, we will feel tired and many become ill. Do you know what the best drink is? Yes, you are right. Cold water!

64．Do most people drink five litres of water every day?

   A. Yes, because water is the most important

   B. No, because what we eat contains water

   C. Yes, because we can’t live without water

   D. No, because we are not thirsty

65．How much water are there in the human body?

   A. About three fourths of the human body is water.

   B. Nearly a half of the human body is water.

   C. Less than a half of the human body is water.

   D. Almost one fourth of the human body is water.

66．When do we need more water?

   A. In cold weather or after exercises.

   B. In hot weather or after exercises.

   C. Before breakfast, lunch and supper.

   D. When we feel tired or become ill.

67．Which of the following is not right?

   A. Cold water is the best drink.

   B. Few people understand how much water the human body needs.

   C. Not all the people realize water is the most important.

   D. When we feel tired or become ill, we never need any water.

The price of books is now so high that I hesitate before buying a book I love. Many people feel the same way. But I remember that only a few years ago, when I was a college student, I bought several books almost every month, using what was left out of the living expenses sent by my parents, and that was not more than 200 yuan.

But now that I am working and the money I earn is only used to support my own expenses, I find I can’t afford many good books.

There is a saying, “Book lovers have no money, but rich people have no feelings for books”. This is exactly the case. Sometimes I wonder about who the books are published for, especially those books with beautiful hard covers.

It is said that usually, the listed price is more than twice as much as the book’s cost and we can see high profits from selling books. But now there is a contradiction. On one hand, readers who want to buy books aren’t able to, while on the other hand, publishers and sellers suffer from the large stockpiles of unsaleable books being stored in their warehouses. This situation is also a disadvantage to intellectual property right protection because many books of bestsellers are sold at a lower price at some book stands.

The key to resolve the problem is to cut the price to an acceptable level to both sellers and consumers.

I wish sincerely that in the near future common readers like me can buy the books we want without worrying about the high prices too much.
