My name is Judy. I’m a student from Yucai Middle School. I have a good friend. Her name is Rita. She doesn’t have good eating habits. She eats hamburgers every day. After dinner, Rita likes eating ice-cream. Rita is fat. Her mother doesn’t want her to be a fat girl. She thinks it’s not healthy to eat too many hamburgers and eat ice-cream after dinner.

Rita’s mother is a doctor(医生). She eats healthy food. She eats some bread and a banana for breakfast. For lunch, she eats a sandwich and some fruit. For dinner, she eats salad, chicken and an egg. Rita’s mother doesn’t eat ice-cream because she doesn’t want to be fat. And she likes doing sports. Her favorite sport is tennis. She thinks it’s relaxing and interesting.

You’re going to enter high school pretty soon. High school is a hard time for many students. To be able to do well in school, it is very necessary to stay healthy. Here are some suggestions for you.

The food at school is often not rich in nutrients （营养）, but a lot of food is provided each time. Choose the healthiest food that is offered. Eat breakfast every day as breakfast is very important. Have meals at a fixed time each day. Prepare some fruit to eat every day.

Getting enough sleep is important in order to do well in school. Not only will enough sleep allow you to do well in your study, but also it will help to prevent you from getting sick. Getting enough sleep will help you stay happy, too.

Wash your hands every time after you go to the bathroom as well as before you have meals. At school, you have to touch a lot of things that others have touched. So wash your hands as often as possible.

Drinking may not only get you into trouble but also damage your health. It is easy to gain weight if you drink beer. When you go out and have fun with your friends, choose some other fun things to do instead of drinking beer.

Remember, being healthy is a choice.
