二、阅读理解。
Young people enjoy different kinds of drinks, though they know how bad drinks are for their health. What about you? What will happen to you if you only drink water?
Chris Bailey, a popular reporter, tried this out. Here is what he has found.
First, you lose weight fast. Yeah, you do! You don't have to exercise. Just drink water and keep away from drinks for 9 days. It is the same as running for 8 kilometres a day! So write down your resolution on the paper and put it on the wall.
Sometimes when you have to stay up late for a test, you may put a cup of tea or coffee at the side of your desk. But do you know 75% to 85% of your brain(大脑) is water? Nothing else! Just by drinking water, your brain can work well. You may remember things quickly and well.
What's more, water washes out something bad in your body. So drinking enough water can stop you from getting old quickly. If you want to look young and beautiful, drink a glass of water right now! Keep on doing it for a long time, and you will be surprised to find your skin(皮肤) is soft and clean.
Last, you save money! The cost(花费)of coffee, juice or other drinks is high while water is healthy and cheap. Drink 5 glasses of water every day or visit doctors? Think about it!
