81.Dear Mike，
How's everything going？I'm very glad that you can write to ask about the ways of keeping healthy.First，eat more fruit and vegetables.We should drink more milk.Say no to fast food such as hamburgers and chips.Eating too much of them may be harmful to your health. Second，do exercise every day.Find out your favourite sport and keep doing it. But remember not to do too much at one time.Third ，get enough sleep.As a teenager，you should sleep at least 8 hours every day.Never stay up too late. Finally，try to do things that make you happy such as talking with your friends and enjoying a relaxing movie.
I hope these rules will be useful for you.
Yours，
