Andscientific research shows thatsmoking is not only harmful to smokers themselves, but also a threat to public health, especially to women and children. So, stop smoking.We are often ignore the importance of health, when you are young, you can eat fast food three meals a day and not feel it. When you start to get older, you begin to feel it more.And healthy diet should give us the calories we need but not contain too much fat and sugar.Of course,you must have enough rest every day, it is the basic of the health, lack of rest will be easy to fell ti r ed and in bad temper. And now insomnia is a common sense. There are 4 little things we shouldn’t do before falling asleep. [1.Don‘t think too much in the bed. 2. Don’t talk too much, too many words make us excited. 3. Don’t let quilt cover your face. If so, we would fell breathing hard.4. Don’t eat too full or drink too much. You’d better eat nothing in 4 hour before sleep and let your stomach have a good rest.]Exercise Really Works (like jogging, swimming or play football game), There's nothing new about the fact that exercise helps us live longer.Lastly,laugh more, keep a good mood, and often look at the bright side, these are extremely important things in our daily life.Wish you good health and happiness.生词：【主题阅读2】A.R ead and choose the best answer.A large number of people in the world eat fast food.

He is only 12 years old but has been smoking for three years. Liu, 15, is a Junior 2 student at Chicheng No. 2 Middle School. He began smoking four years ago. "Smoking is part of my life," Liu said. Qiao and Liu are not those boys' real names. But their problem, smoking, is a very real problem. In many countries, smoking is becoming a bigger problem for young people. Most smokers start in their teens or earlier.A study of 8,000 Beijing students last May told us that smoking is a problem for many Chinese kids. More than 21% of middle school students and 6% of primary school students said they smoked."If young people start smoking early, they will probably get addicted(上瘾的) to nicotine. And it will be very hard to give up later on," said a professor(教授).Every year, about four million people die because of smoking. And if people keep smoking, that number will go up to about 10 million a year by 2030, the World Health Organization says. So we have to learn and tell others about the dangers of smoking.
