On a hot summer day, a soft drink can really take away your thirst.At home, at school, in the park or at the movies—you can find one almost anywhere.
Carbonated(碳酸的)
You can see bubbles in these! Of all soft drinks sold, about 75 percent are carbonated.But be careful, carbonated soft drinks have lots of sugar and caffeine.Caffeine is not very good for you in the summer, because it takes water out of your body.And the sugar can make you overweight if you drink too much.
Fruit juice
There are different kinds of juice.One kind is made only from fresh fruit.This kind of fruit juice may not taste sweet enough for some people, but it is nutritious.Another kind of fruit juice tastes good but has lots of sugar in it.Many young people buy this kind because the advertisements are good.It is bad for your teeth and bones to drink lots of this.
Energy drinks
These kinds of drinks have caffeine and things that make people get excited in them.They are sometimes called “party drinks”.Doctors say that if you drink too much of this kind, you may have a heart attack.
Bottled water
We have lots of different kinds of bottled water, such as mineral water, purified water and distilled(蒸馏的) water.They are clean and easy to drink.But it is best not to drink very cold water.It may make your stomach feel bad.
Sports drinks

I got my first driver's license(执照)in 1953 by taking driver education in my first year at Central High School in Charlotte,North Carolina. Four years later when it was time to renew my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore,Maryland. Two weeks before my 20th birthday,Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina driver’ s license,ready to renew,the man told me that I was under age by Maryland law since I was not yet 21.“Mr.Henry Smith,your husband,will have to sign for you,”he said.
I argued,pointing to a very large belly(肚子)of mine,“I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?”He answered coldly,“It’s the law,madam.”
Henry encouraged me to calm down,just go ahead and get the license and be done with it. “No,” I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left without a Maryland license.
I called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail—using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland,and I had to take the Maryland driver’ s exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years—sign the name Susan Brown,have my new picture taken,and walk out with a license to drive.
