“ Early to bed and early to rise make a man healthy , wealthy and wise.” This is an old English saying. It means that when we go to bed early , we can get up early the next morning. Then we will become healthy. We will also become rich and clever.

This is true. To keep healthy,we must have enough sleep. Experts(专家) say that adults should get seven to eight hours of sleep a night. Teenagers need nine to ten hours. And school-aged children may need more than ten hours of sleep. Children who do not have enough sleep can't do their work very well. They won't be wise and they may not become wealthy!

We also need exercise. Walking , running, swimming and playing games are all exercise. Exercise keeps us strong. It also helps the blood to move around the body. This is very important. Our blood takes the nutrition( 营养 ) from food to all parts of our body.

The head also needs blood. So exercise that moves the blood to our head helps us think better!

Thanks to better health care, most people are living healthier and longer lives. Someone who is born today can expect to live about thirty?five years longer than someone who was born in the nineteenth century. It is even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are some rules for a healthy life.

Get off the sofa!

Sure, it is comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa. To keep fit, you have to walk at least 10,000 steps every day. In the past, people's jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?

Eat healthy food!

It is important to eat food that is fresh and natural, for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have it once in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.

Rest while you can!

When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it is important for you to get about eight hours' sleep a night. At weekends, you have got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.

Do not worry. Be happy!

There are a number of reasons why first year university students gain(增加) weight; but it's encouraging to know that freshman don't have to add these harmful fifteen pounds.

Mistakes in choosing food

University kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby(在身边) to help them choose. Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying. Late at night, some students get harmful fast food such as hamburgers. Students also have less time for walking, running, and doing sports because of their schoolwork.

Eating right
