If you are to full and you drink water can that water overflow into your lungs and drown you?
No, provided you are built normally. Your stomach can absorb a lot. If not you may vomit and there is always small risk in that if you do so while conscious and not able to be upright, then you can aspirate water into your lungs . Most likely you will find yourself needing to urinate .
There is such a thing as " water poisoning " . This is an expression which means you consume a large volume of water in a short period of time, causing electrolyte imbalance , which may lead to cardiac arrhythmia , and in rare cases, death.

How do the water purity standards differ for the various uses?
The standards differ because different usages require different standards. For example, drinking water requires chemical treatment and biological treatment, while water for steam generation (Industrial) requires separation of ion and dissolved gasses to prevent either corrosion or fouling. If the water is used for processes, the treatment will focus on removing impurities that have great impact on the balance of the process. Another reason why the standards are different is because of the treatment cost that differs based on each standard.
How are humans and water dependent on each other?
I don't think water is dependent on humans, but humans are definitely dependent on water.

Do they really turn sewer water into fresh drinking water?
Yes, they really do.
Even if cities didn't do it, the clouds and atmosphere would. Water is constantly recycled. It is also being assembled and taken apart through certain processes. On the bright side, you have probably ingested a water molecule that one of the great Cesars also processed.
Can you drink too much water throughout the day?
While water is an essential nutrient for our bodies, it is indeed possible to drink too much water throughout the day. Drinking too much water will cause the aptly named condition "hyper-hydration" (water intoxication) to take place. The symptoms can be relatively mild (vomiting, dizziness) but can quickly becoming severe (kidney failure) or fatal (brain damage) if the amount of water consumed further increases.
The actual intoxication in the brain and feelings of faintness are caused by a replenishment of fluids without consuming any electrolytes. Most of our liquid bodily excrements (especially sweat) contain both water and electrolytes, so the body is craving electrolytes but only getting water.
The amount of water required to cause water intoxication is much higher than anyone would regularly drink during a day, but people who play sports (especially those who run) are at a high risk. This is why Gatorade is so popular among football players because it has electrolytes that the body needs to keep properly hydrated.

1) An A La Carte Menu is a multiple choice menu, with each dish priced separately.

As you know, in order to lose weight, it is very important to keep an eye on your daily calorie intake. So I believe Drinking water indirectly helps you lose weight.
