Dear Editor,
After I attended your summer camp about health and lifestyle choices, I realised I hardly ever felt well, either physically or mentally. I often felt sleepy and dizzy, and lacked passion. Most worrying, though, I got the flu easily and experienced many toothaches, too.

尊敬的编辑:
参加了你们举办的有关健康和生活方式选择的夏令营之后,我意识到我几乎从来没有感觉好过,无论在身体上还是心理上。我经常感到昏昏欲睡和头晕目眩。不过最令人担忧的是,我很容易得流感,而且经常牙痛。
At the end of the camp I heard, “Change the world by changing yourself.” This stimulated my motivation. A dentist once examined me and told me that too much sugar in my meals had damaged my teeth and health. I made up my mind to change two things in my life: to eat nothing with sugar and to exercise regularly.
在夏令营尾声,我听到“改变世界,从改变自己做起”这句话,这激发了我的动力。有次,牙医给我做检查时告诉我,我的三餐摄入了过量糖分,损害了我的牙齿和健康。我下定决心改变我生活中的两件事:不吃含糖的任何东西,定期锻炼身体。

After that I stopped buying all the sweets, biscuits, and sugary drinks that I used to have every day. Whenever I went out with friends, I brought snacks from home, things that didn't have any added sugar: fruit, nuts, dried meat, etc.
此后,我不再买我过去每天都要吃的糖果、饼干和含糖饮料。每次和朋友们出去时,我都会从家里带零食,也就是没有添加任何糖分的东西:水果、坚果、肉干等。

My exercise was very simple: I went outside every day for at least 30 minutes and did something active. Sometimes I played table tennis or badminton with my cousins. Other times I jumped on my skateboard and rode around my neighbourhood, or just took a long walk.
我的锻炼很简单:我每天在室外积极活动至少30分钟。有时,我会和堂(表)亲打乒乓球或羽毛球;有时,我会跳上滑板,在街区滑行,或是长时间散步。

The results have been fantastic. I feel more dynamic and stronger than ever, in both body and mind. I sleep soundly at night now. I no longer suffer from a flu virus or toothaches either. Best of all, in my opinion, is how I feel about myself. I feel like I'm in control of my own life. To make choices about myself is within my own power. I CAN change myself. I just need to try.

结果棒极了。在身心上,我感觉比以往任何时候都更有活力、更加强壮。现在,夜里我能酣然入睡。我也不再受流感病毒或牙痛的折磨。我认为,最棒的是我对自己的感觉。我感到我能掌控自己的生活。为自己作出选择是我力所能及的。我能够改变自己。我只需去尝试。

As I took part in the summer camp about personal life choices, I started to analyse my choices, especially what I did to relax and how it was affecting my whole life.

After starting high school, I felt stressed out and always relaxed by playing computer games. I got so absorbed that I played the games day and night. Playing was fun, but I felt even more worn out afterwards! So after the camp, I realised that it was very, very important to adjust my lifestyle. I decided to take control of my life and find other ways to relax.
高中开始后,我感到压力重重,总是通过玩电脑游戏来放松自己。我十分着迷,没日没夜地打游戏。打游戏很好玩,但过后我却感到更加疲惫不堪!因此,夏令营之后,我意识到调整自己的生活方式是非常重要的。我决定掌控自己的生活,寻找其他的放松方式。

It was a big struggle not to join my friends in playing online games as I'm mad for them. However, I realised that to succeed in quitting, I had to replace it with something else. So I thought about what to try. Rock climbing, bowling, watching comedies, and playing basketball were the things I thought of doing instead.

不和我的朋友们一起玩网络游戏是一件十分困难的事情,因为我痴迷其中。 不过我意识到要想成功戒瘾,我必须用别的东西来取代它。于是,我思考该尝试些什么。攀岩、打保龄球、看喜剧片、打篮球都是我考虑过的取而代之的事情。
Now my dad and I go rock climbing together monthly! It has enhanced the quality of my life, improving my health and increasing my happiness. I get refreshed through climbing, spend more time with my dad, and get to meet new friends.
现在,爸爸每个月与我结伴去攀岩。这改善了我的健康,增加了我的幸福感,(从而)提高了我的生活品质。攀岩使我精神焕发,与爸爸共度了更多的时光,而且结交了新的朋友。

After six months of trying out new ways of relaxing, I feel much more energetic. I feel that I can change myself for the better. And if that's true for me, then it might truly be possible to change the world for the better, As Gandhi said, “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
尝试新的放松方式六个月后,我感到精力充沛多了。我感觉我可以让自己变得更好。如果这对我来说是真的,那么也许真的有可能让世界变得更加美好。正如甘地所说:“欲变世界,先变其身。”

Dear Editor,
I was walking past a shop window the other day when I saw my reflection. At first, I didn't realise it was me. When I saw it was me, I felt sad as I was overweight. I didn't realise how I looked, and now I really want to change. I really like eating, but I realise I eat too much, and I don't eat good things.
I want to change because I want to be able to look at myself and feel happy with how I look. I also want to be healthy. My plan is to change my diet and exercise regularly. I will stop eating sugar, and only eat at meal times rather than eating snacks during the day. I will focus on healthy foods. Then I will exercise every day. I will walk to school and back, and on the weekend, I will go swimming.
I have only been doing my plan for a week, but I'm already starting to feel better. I haven't lost a lot of weight yet, but I feel positive. I feel confident that I will reach my goal!
Yours sincerely,
A. Smith
Thank you !
