Voice 1: The sun beats down. It is a hot dry day. A man is working in a field. It is tiring work — the ground is hard and difficult to dig. He stops for a short time. His body is suffering. He has lost a lot of water through his skin. Now he is dehydrated. He needs a drink. He stands under a nearby tree. He finds his water bottle and lifts it to his mouth. He takes long deep swallows.
声音1：阳光直射。这是炎热又干燥的一天。一个男人正在田地里干活。这是十分累人的活，土地很硬，很难挖。他停止了干活。他的身体很疼。他出了很多汗。现在他处于脱水状态。他需要喝水。他站在附近的树下。找到水瓶后放到了嘴边。他喝了很多水。
Voice 2: The water tastes good. There is nothing like a cool drink of water on a hot day. But for many people that drink may cost them their lives. Over one billion people in the world live without a clean water supply. Over two million people die each year from health problems related to drinking dirty water. Experts estimate that six thousand children die each day from conditions caused by dirty water.
声音2：水的味道不错。在这种炎热的日子里，没有什么比冰水更好了。但是对许多人来说，喝水可能会让他们付出生命。全世界有超过10亿人无法获得清洁水源。每年有200余万人死于污水相关疾病。专家预计，每天有6000名儿童因饮用不洁净的水而导致死亡。
