Good evening, my ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) friends. Do you want to stay healthy I think my ideas will help you.
Firstly, I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )think a good eating habit is important for us to keep healthy. Don’t only eat one kind of food. We should have a balanced diet. For example, we need grain, fruit, vegetables and so on. A balanced diet is necessary to a strong body. Secondly, we should play sports on the playground at least half an hour every day. Thirdly, we should have a good attitude toward life. This is also important. Don’t always think about your problems! Please think of the good things in our
lives!
