time，I would take out my cards，reading the English words aloud and guessing their Chinese meanings．By doing this,I have overcome my difficulties in my English studies．
How to Keep Healthy(怎样保持健康)
Nowadays，more and more people know the importance of keeping healthy．Without a healthly body，they can do nommg. For me,there are three main ways to keep healthy．First，it is necessary，to keep a balanced diet, which is the basis of good health. It is better for us to have more fruit and vegetables every day．Secondly, it is important to take regular exercises，such as swimming，jogging and so on．Thirdly，it is essential to stay in a good mood. If people follow these three ways of keeping fit，they'll greatly improve their health．
Health and Eating Habit健康与饮食习惯
Eating habit is closely related to health．In order to keep fit，we should pay more attention to our eating habits．My tips on good eating habits are as follows：First,don’t eat too much or too little for each meal．Eating too much will cause overweight and eating too little is bad for health too．Second．don't eat between meals．Sometimes we like eating a little before the mealtime；as a result，we lose our appetite for lunch or dinner．Third，eat more vegetables and fruits every day．As the saying goes，“An apple a day makes the doctor away．” In my opinion，a good eating habit leads to a healthy life．
Health and Wealth健康与财富 which one is more important? Different people have different opinions about it. Some think that wealth means everything. with a lot of money, they can buy a big house, an expensive car, beautiful clothes and so on. On the other hand, some other people believe that health is more important than wealth. A healthy body is the foundation for a successful career and the base for getting wealth.
For me, I think Health is much more important than wealth, it is unwise to spend one's health buying his wealth.
High School Life and College Life 高中与大学生活 High school life is quite different from college life. In high school, students have to wear school uniform. Teachers always ask students to do many tasks in the classroom. In a college, students have to be responsible for themselves. They have more freedom than those in high school. For example, they put on the casual clothes instead of uniform. Tutors give them lectures and assignments, and they must spend more time studying by themselves in the library. That means students must manage themselves very well. Although I often recall my high school life, I like college life more.

My leisure-time is colourful, for example, eating, drinking, palying table-tennis, and every other tings pertinent to happiness.My favorite activity in my leisure-time is listening to songs.
Whenever I step into the world of music, it never fails to open the gate of my heart to greet everything joyfully. Whenever I feel frustrated, I will put on my microphone, turning up the music,listening to the songs and sing loudly in order to ease my anger or disappointment. Among all kinds of songs, I like ZhouJielun best just because I love listening to R&B.
Strangely, unlike what critics say about his sound is hard to understand, I feel extraordinary happy after listening to those songs, like Thousands of miles apart, Chrysanthemum Platform,Seven miles? Aroma, Breezes into Pieces, and so onPerhaps I
37
have transformed my inward thoughts into the lyrics-- Farewell, my girl, but you don?t say good-bye, our heightened distance drives eternity out of sight. Farewell, my girl, will you forever abide? Melody coming from afar bidding lifelong departure doomed for you and me.
Believe it or not, song is my best reliable companion. It provides me with not only a temporary escape from the daily routine, but a release from the dull as well as boring schoolwork.
In addition, by listening to songs, I gain the inward peace, which definitely refreshes my mind. My Plan for the National Day Holiday（我的国庆节计划）

Why I like learning English. 为什么我喜欢学习英语 I like learning English. This is because I can do many more things if I master English. English is a world language.

With the development of industry, water pollution is becoming more serious now. The polluted water not only kills fish, it is also harmful to our health. Many people get sick because they drink the polluted water. In some rivers the water is so dirty that they can even kill plants.
We should fight against the pollution. We should stop using harmful things. I wish it is not a dream that in the near future we can have clean rivers again.
