Sample Sentences

非也非也,事实上,当你感觉到口渴的时候其实身体内部早已缺水严重,一般人都不重视,殊不知很多常见疾病都与体内缺水息息相关。
fēi yě fēi yě ,shìshíshàng ,dāng nǐ gǎnjué dào kǒukě de shíhou qíshí shēntǐ nèibù zǎoyǐ quēshuǐ yánzhòng ,yībānrén dōu bù zhòngshì ,shūbùzhī hěn duō chángjiàn jíbìng dōu yǔ tǐnèi quēshuǐ xīxīxiāngguān 。
No, no, in fact, when you feel thirsty it's actually at times when your body is already seriously dehydrated. Normally people don't take it seriously, but little do they know that many commonly-seen illnesses are all closely related to the body lacking water.
呵!这真是蛮严重的呢,那喝水的时间有什么特别需要讲究的吗?如果不是口渴了才喝水那得是什么时候喝呢?
hē !zhè zhēn shì mán yánzhòng de ne ,nà hēshuǐ de shíjiān yǒu shénme tèbié xūyào jiǎngjiu de ma ?rúguǒ bùshì kǒukě le cái hēshuǐ nà děi shì shénme shíhou hē ne ?
Huh! That's really serious. So is there anything one should know about the times you drink water? If you shouldn't just drink water when you feel thirsty, then when should you drink water?
口渴了得喝水,当然毋庸置疑。可那是被动地喝水,我们还要主动地来补水,比如清早起床后喝杯温开水,有助于稀释血液,帮助肝肾代谢,排除体内废物,养颜又保健。
kǒukě le děi hēshuǐ ,dāngrán wúyōngzhìyí 。kě nà shì bèidòng de hēshuǐ ,wǒmen hái yào zhǔdòng de lái bǔ shuǐ ,bǐrú qīngzǎo qǐchuáng hòu hē bēi wēn kāishuǐ ,yǒuzhùyú xīshì xuèyè ,bāngzhù gān shèn dàixiè ,páichú tǐnèi fèiwù ,yǎngyán yòu bǎojiàn 。
Of course there's no question that if you're thirsty you should drink water. But that's drinking water in a passive way. We also have to be proactive in supplementing our water intake, like, for example, early in the morning when you get out of bed, drinking a glass of warm boiled water helps ease your circulation, as well as helping your liver and kidneys metabolize, to rid yourself of toxins, helping improve your skin and keeping you healthy.
我口渴了。
wǒ kǒukě le 。
I’m thirsty.
