water

Water is very important. All living things need water to live. It is very useful. Without water, all living things cannot live. All plants will not grow, people and animals also will die.

Do you know how we get water in the tap? It passes through a pipe. But we must not drink it like that. We must boil it and drink. Then it will be safe for drinking. We will not get diseases. And also we use it to water plants, to use it to brush our teeth and to bath. But we must not waste it. For domestic purposes we must use rain water instead. When rain falls, we must put a bucket outside to collect rain water.

But sometimes it is a problem when rain falls in large quantities. It causes floods. But flood also is useful. It fills our reservoirs, lakes and rivers with water. We must drink a lot of water to stay healthy.
