your brain works better. If you don’t drink enough water, you get
dehydrated. You feel tired and you don’t have a lot of energy. You can get a
headache or find it difficult to think. When you are hydrated, it means you
are getting enough water. It’s good for your joints, your bones and your
body temperature.

Water also helps your body to get rid of toxins f rom your body, and helps the
other organs in your body to work well.

Children should drink about 1.5 liters of water every day. Most of this should

It is important to eat the right food, but it’s also important to look after food
to keep it fresh and safe. We need to preserve and store food, if we don’t
store food properly, it can go bad, and this makes us sick. Now, we can use
fridges and freezers to store food. These need electricity to work. How can
we preserve food if we don’t have electricity? And how did people preserve
food in the past?

1-Fire: People used fire to make smoked meat and fish. We used this a long
time ago, and we still use it now.

2-Salt: We can add salt to food to preserve it. It takes out the water. People
use this all over the world for meat and fish.

3-Drying: We can dry fruit in the sun. Dried apples, figs, grapes, bananas
and mangoes are all delicious. When we dry fruit, it takes out the water and
keeps the nutrients. The fruit is sweet and delicious, and it’s healthy
because we don’t add sugar.

4-Containers: There are different ways of storing food in containers:

Zeer pots: Thousands of years ago, people invented zeer pots to keep food
fresh. The food is inside one ceramic pot. This pot is put inside a bigger
ceramic pot. You put sand between the two pots, then put water in the
sand. The water takes the heat away and the food stays cool.

Cans and jars: People also use cans and jars to preserve food. You put the
food in a liquid with salt, and close the can. No air gets into the jar or can,
and the food lasts for years.

Unit 4 130
In the wild

Part 3
Changes to habitat

Animals and plants live together in balance in different habitats. But what
happens when things change? There are lots of reasons for change.

Deforestation: People cut down forests


131
and rainforest to use the trees or to
make land for farming. This destroys the
habitat of hundreds of animals, birds
and plants.

Building: New buildings for home, offices


and factories can destroy habitats. They
can be good for people, but bad for the
animals that lose their homes.

Pollution: can be on land, in water, or in


air. People leave garbage on the land and
in rivers and seas. We put chemicals in rivers
and seas, and damage the air with machines
and fires.

Volcanoes: When a volcano erupts, ash


falls to the ground and covers it. In the
short term, plants can’t grow. The ash
pollutes the air.

Drought: When there isn’t enough rain,


the ground is dry and plants can’t grow.
animals can’t find water to drink.
132
Farmers can’t grow food.

Flood: In a flood, there is an overflow of


water to land that is usually dry. This can
happen in heavy rain or a storm. Floods
can
destroy natural habitats as well as people’s
homes.

Fire: can happen in forests or grassland.


Fire can destroy many habitats very
quickly. The smoke pollutes the air.

Balance (n.)
A state in which the correct amount of
importance is given to each thing so that a
situation is successful.
