Everyone knows that exercise is important. We all need to exercise, because it makes us strong (强壮的) and healthy. Children who often exercise are more flexible (灵活的) both in mind and body. That means (意味着) they can do better in studies and housework than those who don't exercise.

There are many ways to exercise. You can walk, run, swim, skate, or play all kinds of ball games. Make sure you know something about exercise: You need to like what you are doing. You need to have enough exercise—but not too much. It's best to exercise twice a week. Thirty minutes each time is enough. Try all kinds of sports until (直到) you find your favorite, but you can choose (选择) two or three that are the best for you.

You can exercise at fitness centers. There is a lot of equipment (设备). The equipment will help exercise your arms, legs and other parts of your body to make you healthy. The equipment can be useful for those lazy people or people who want to save more time when exercising. Some people even buy equipment to exercise at home. But it is really expensive and we don't think it's a good idea.

31. Which of the following sports can we find in the passage?

a. Swimming. 　　b. Climbing. 　c. Skating.

d. Playing basketball. 　e. Walking.

A. acde   B. bcde   C. abce   D. abde

37. ____ Don't play on the computer for more than half an hour before you sleep. Studies show that it is bad for the quality of your sleep. Reading a book or listening to light music is good for sleep.

38. ____ A comfortable environment is necessary. Make sure that you have turned off the lights in your room before you sleep, and that the temperature is comfortable.

39. ____ Exercising will help you to go to sleep more easily. Walk for 45 minutes every day and you will sleep better at night. But don't do it just before you go to bed.

How to live a healthy and happy life

Hi, my dear classmates，

With the improvement of living conditions, we are paying more and more attention to our health, which includes both physical and mental health. Then how can we students live a healthy and happy life?

Firstly, we should keep our bodies healthy. Not only do we need to eat healthy food, but we also need to exercise in a proper way every day. For example, we can run for 30 minutes every morning or play sports after school. Meanwhile, we still need enough sleep every day.

Secondly, mental health is also very important. We need to love our life and try to be active. We need to get along well with others as well. When we're sad, we can communicate with our parents, teachers and friends frankly.

In a word, I hope everyone can have a healthy body and mind, and then we can have a healthy and happy life every day.

That's all. Thank you！
