📖 題組：
Water makes up more than half of our body weight. To sustain this amount of fluid in our bodies, plain water is considered our best choice, for it contains no sugar and no calories. Yet, is water always the healthiest drink we can __21__ ? Well, it depends on who and where we are, and what we’re doing. Obviously, a physically __22__ person with an outdoor job under the sun will need to drink more fluid than a desk-bound person who lives and works in an air-conditioned place. But there’s more to it than that. When a person sweats, he loses water and salt, so he needs to replace both. Replacing lost fluid with just plain water means the body has too much water and not enough salt. To __23__ things out, the body will get rid of water by producing urine. For this reason, milk can actually be more __24__ than drinking water. Milk naturally contains salt and lactose, a sugar which the human body needs in small amounts to help stimulate water __25__ . Coconut water, which contains salt and carbohydrates, is also more functional than water at restoring and maintaining a normal fluid __26__ after exercise. For the average person, however, water remains a very good __27__ for keeping hydrated—if you know how to drink it. The secret is: Never wait until the body is telling you you’re thirsty, since there must already have been significant changes in your body for it to eventually __28__ your consciousness. At that point, it might be well past the best moment to take in fluid. Also, drinking a lot of liquid in one go can cause more water to __29__ the body quickly and come out as urine. To __30__ this, you need to drink water throughout the day to maintain your hydration levels.

回顧前一句提到身體處於「水太多、鹽分太少」的失衡狀態，而身體隨後透過排尿來調節；那麼這個不定詞片語的目的，是想讓體內的水與鹽達到什麼樣的狀態呢？觀察空格後接了 'things out'，哪一個詞搭配 out 能表達出這種調節效果？

動詞片語與上下文邏輯
前文提到大量流汗後只補充純水，會導致體內「水太多而鹽分不足」的不平衡狀態。接著提到身體藉由排尿排掉多餘水分，目的顯然是為了「使兩者恢復平衡」。這裡的 even things out 是一個非常道地的片語，意為「使……平衡、扯平」。
