Question

Many people like to drink soda pop（蘇打汽水）but they may not know that soda pop has an interesting story.

The story began with mineral water（礦泉水）.In many places，people thought washing with mineral water was good for their health.Some said drinking mineral water was also good for people.Some mineral water had bubbles（氣泡）in it，so people learned to make bubbly water.They put CO2 into water to make the water bubbly.They called the bubbly water“soda water”.

Later people put juice or some other things to make soda water taste good.Some people drank soda water for their health.Many people liked it for its good taste.Some people went to buy soda water every day.Many medicine stores or ice-cream shops sold soda water.Now people can buy soda pop water in every food store.Some people call it"pop"，some say"soda”and other people call it“soda pop”.

At first people made soda pop because they thought it was good for their health，but in fact it's bad for us.For example，drinking too much soda pop may make us fat.Well，maybe we shouldn't drink this kind of good-tasting water for our health.
