‘Human beings need water to live. A human
being can live for weeks without food, but only
a few days without water. We often hear that our
body is two thirds water, but what exactly does
water do to help the human body?
‘Water helps to protect important parts of the
body, such as the eyes. The brain is 75% water.
We also need water to breathe, and to keep
our body temperature normal. Water carries
nutrients and oxygen to all parts of the body.
Blood is, in fact, 92% water. In addition, water
helps to convert food into energy and removes
waste from the body. It is also very good for a
"skin. Even the bones in our body are
nade up of 22% water
‘The human body gets water not only from
water itself but also from other drinks and food.
‘Water is a major part of many foods, particularly
fruit and vegetables, which may contain from
85 to 95% water. Because the amount of water
we need may change with climate, level of
activity, diet end other factors, there is no one
recommendation for how much daily water you
need to drink. However, adults typically need at
east two litres (eight cups) of water a day, from
all sources.

Below is an extract from an article on learning vocabulary.
Idioms ... are items which are not the sum of their parts: they have holistic
meanings which cannot be retrieved from the individual meanings of the
component words. ... examples include spill the beans, have an axe to grind,
and kick the bucket.
a What reasons are there for teaching idioms?
b What problems might learners have with using idioms?
