Most people drink when they are thirsty, but we often need more water, especially if we have been taking exercises. A mans body is 65 to 75 percent of water. Most people need about five to seven litres of water every day, but we do not need to drink this amount(数量) because a lot comes from the food we eat.

Do you remember how the waves started? They began where the stone met the water and then moved outward. Just as waves in water take time to move, so sound takes time to move in air. Sound takes time to travel. Perhaps you have noticed the time that passes between a flash of lightning and the thunder. You may have heard the sound of a baseball bat hitting a ball an instant after you saw it happen. Both light and sound take time to travel. However, there is a great deal of difference in their speed. In one second, sound can travel about 1, 000 feet through air. During this same time, light can travel move than 186, 000 miles!When something makes a sound some distance away, you can often see the action before you hear the sound. As sound travels, vibrations are passed on from one molecule to another. The farther the sound has to travel, the longer it takes. ( )1. Which of these is wrong?A. “Sound and wave” mean“水花和水波”. B.“ Lightning and thunder” mean“闪电和雷声”. C. “Instant and second” mean“瞬息和秒钟”. D“Action and vibration” mean“动作和振动”. ( )2. Sound takes time to move in air just as .

In one second， light can travel about 300，000，000 metres. C. One foot is longer than one metre. D. One metres is shorter than one miles. 5
