Keep a scientific diet. Keep in mind that sugar can be removed (去除) from our diet completely.Over intake (摄入量) of sugar is one of the main reasons for getting fat.Over intake of protein (蛋白质) or fat and low intake of fiber can also lead to getting fat.We only need a few grams of protein to keep our body in order.
Be always in a good mood. There is a relationship between the mood and health.A good mood keeps you in high spirits.Thanks to the Internet,we can enjoy and learn much without going out.Take a look at some online shops and pick up some bargains,enjoy music and movies and chat with good friends.Just keep happy.
Enough sleep. Two studies show the reasons why teens and adults don’t have enough sleep.With teens,a major reason is mobile phone use;with adults,it’s work.Meanwhile,a third study of young children shows that lack of sleep in early life may lead to serious problems in future.Everyone needs at least 8-hour sleep to recover (恢复) from tiredness and the hurt caused by hard work in the daytime.
Proper exercise. Do exercise to keep away from fatness.Because of the quick pace of the modern life,you don’t have time to do exercise every day,but at least three times a week and 45 minutes each time.

【推荐1】Here are some strategies to break the cycle of bedtime procrastination (拖延症) and reclaim some of those precious hours of sleep
Reserve your bed for sleeping- "not stressing"
Sometimes getting up .and doing the thing that’s keeping you awake can actually help you fall asleep faster. If what’s keeping you up is your stress about still being awake, go ahead and get up out of bed. Walk around the house and wash dishes or do some light stretches-whatever will settle your mind.
Make a bedtime routine and stick to it
Parents know that bedtime routines help young children wind down before bed. Taking a warm bath, changing into pajamas (睡衣) and curling up with a good book before turning out the lights at a consistent time works just as well for adults.
Create an environment conducive to sleep
Minimizing how much light seeps into the sleep environment can help promote better sleep. Consider installing blackout curtains or room-darkening shades in your bedroom
On our work day is done, the family has had dinner and the kids have finished their homework, still have 17 other things on your to-do list? Instead of staying up late to tackle them all, pick one or two things and just focus on those. The same advice goes for the activities you use to unwind.

【推荐2】Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest(诚实的);be generous(宽宏大量的);be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust(信任) one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoyments, like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know you better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly alike (相同). But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.

【推荐3】Are You a Moring Person?
Mornings are not for everyone. Knowing that our own bodies may be wired to prefer a certain time of day is certainly a relief. But many of us still have to wake up and function during those first daylight hours. So what can you do?
We tapped a variety of experts - from sleep experts to nutritionists to life organizational pros (生活管理达人) — to share their tricks on how to make morning less stressful and more pleasant for even the most after-hours of night owls.
1. Night waking
Poor sleep quality can explain why we sometimes wake up from eight hours of snoozing and feel like we only clocked in at four. “It’s normal to have one or two awakenings, but more than that leaves us feeling groggy (昏昏沉沉) in the morning because of the fragmented sleep,” explains Shelby Harris, director of the behavioral sleep medicine program at Montefiore Medical Center.
2. The Science of snoozing
The snooze button does more harm than good. Nodding off again sends you into a light and fragmented sleep! Multiple snoozes can leave you feeling groggier than just getting out of bed the first time. Instead, be honest about the time you intend to get up and then enjoy every last minute of sleep, so you can wake up alert and ready to go.
3. Don’t ease into your workday
It can be tempting to plow through the easy things early on—checking e-mail, scanning the headlines—but it’s wise to tackle the bigger stuff first. “Getting to work on the most important tasks not only ups the chances that they actually get done, but it also leaves you with a burst of accomplishment to take with you the rest of the day,” says Jason Selk, coauthor of Organize Tomorrow Today.
4. Save social media for later
Schedule a social media block later in the afternoon to check in when you’re likely to need a break anyway, and save the morning for the important stuff.
1. What’s the purpose of the passage?A.To help us to get the most out of our mornings. |
B.To relieve us from the guilt of multiple snoozes in the morning. |
C.To warn us of the harm of not getting out of bed immediately. |
D.To inform us about the fact that our bodies are wired to prefer a certain time of day. |
A.One or two awakenings ensure us a good night’s sleep. |
B.To be an early bird, better forget about the snooze button. |
C.It’s important not to block social medium if you want to save your morning. |
D.Beginning a day with easy things aroused our interest and a sense of accomplishment. |

【推荐1】Tai chi, a traditional form of Chinese martial art that combines slow, gentle movements and postures with mindfulness, is known to increase flexibility and improve balance. Now, a new research suggests it’s better than aerobic (有氧的) exercises for lowering blood pressure in people with prehypertension (高血压前期).
In the study, researchers in China employed 342 adults whose average age was 49. Roughly half the people participated in the supervised aerobic exercise, including jogging, climbing stairs, brisk walking and cycling. The other half was trained to practice tai chi. Both groups got hour-long sessions four times a week.
After 12 months, those in the tai chi group saw bigger drops in their blood pressure than those in the aerobic exercise group. Besides, nearly 22% of the people who practiced tai chi saw their blood pressure fall to within normal range, compared with nearly 16% of people in the aerobic exercise group. Fewer patients in the tai chi group went on to develop hypertension than in the aerobic exercise group.
So what’s it about tai chi that helps lower blood pressure? The practice tends to cause more of a response from the parasympathetic (副交感) nervous system, says Ruth Taylor-Piliae, a professor at the University of Arizona’s College of Nursing, who wasn’t involved in the study. The parasympathetic nervous system is the network of nerves that relaxes your body after periods of stress or danger.
Tai chi is appealing as it requires little space or equipment. “I think the beauty of tai chi is that you don’t have to have a special gym membership,” Taylor-Piliae says. “Once you learn tai chi, you can do it anytime, anyplace and anywhere. It does provide that calming and relaxing effect.”
Studies have also shown practicing tai chi can help reduce the risk of falls, improve balance and walking speed in older adults, and reduce depression and anxiety. “But you have to have enough ‘dose’ of tai chi,” Taylor-Piliae says. “You can’t just do it one hour, one time.”
1. What happened to those practicing tai chi during the study?A.Some began to have normal blood pressure. | B.Few aged in an unhealthy manner. |
C.Many went on to develop prehypertension. | D.Most got nervous more easily. |
A.It needs the least time of practice. | B.It produces a relaxing effect. |
C.It puts the nervous system in order. | D.It makes its practicer inactive. |
A.By combining it with dieting. | B.By exercising it as early as possible. |
C.By practicing it consistently. | D.By balancing it with other workouts. |
A.Tai Chi Serves as a Convenient Exercise | B.Tai Chi Is Getting Popular Among Foreigners |
C.Tai Chi ls Critical to Stopping Falls Happening | D.Tai Chi Helps Reduce Blood Pressure Effectively |

【推荐3】I think as a high school student, making our academic (学业的) performance continue at the same level is our top task but so is having a healthy lifestyle.
Having a healthy lifestyle will help keep our body and mind focused. However, constantly changing the arrangement of our health and school can be challenging. But it’s only imperative to take care of our body, so treat it like it’s an investment (投资). The question now is, “How do we do it?” These are the few simple tips that you need, to keep a healthy lifestyle.
Exercise Daily. However, starting slowly like walking early in the morning for 10 minutes in the sun, doing 5 minutes’ stretching will take you far more than you expected. Just start doing smallest actions and soon everything will start to add up. You can also follow medical creators on TikTok as you start your health journey.
Manage stress. Stress can’t be avoided. Mostly, the stress levels in high school often rise in these years and can have a bad effect on your health. So it is important to know how to manage our stress. You can manage your stress by having a break from a task for a while. Then, do things that will make you feel relaxed. Things like cleaning your room, catching up with your friends. reading your favorite book, etc. In this way, you can have a healthy and balanced routine.
Lift weights. As part of my routine, this has become the most challenging. I will always find myself getting bored if I continue moving to the same place. On Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. on the other hand, I make sure not to leave out lifting weights. Then, I rest for four days for my muscles to recover. This routine saved me from a lot of back pain.

【推荐2】Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, beginning in the 1970s, pioneered a method of planting young native species close together to quickly create tiny forests on urban wasteland. He found that protected areas around temples in Japan contained a huge variety of native plants that co-existed to produce adaptable and diverse ecosystems. The forests were layered together from four categories of native plantings: main tree species, sub-species, bushes, and ground-covering herbs. Using this four-category system, along with his explorations of the vegetation in Japan, Miyawaki designed his own system for planting forests.
Miyawaki forests can grow into mature ecosystems in just 20 years-about 10 times the growth speed of a traditional forest, explained Kazue Fujiwara who worked with Miyawaki. According to Fujiwara, the planting should center on the primary trees of the location. Native species require no maintenance (养护) after the first two years and are more likely to survive and grow well in the local environmental conditions. What's more, they provide an ideal home for endangered species.
When Shubhendu Sharma learned about Miyawaki's forest creation technique in 2009, the botanist created a forest at the Toyota factory in India where Sharma worked as an engineer. Shortly, he started a company to create similar forests, researching the method and trying it in his own backyard. He described his work in a 2014 TED Talk, and released his version of the instructions so anyone could learn how to create their own small native forest. Since then, Sharma's company, Afforestt, has helped plant forests in 44 cities.
Now, Miyawaki-style urban forests have been springing up across Europe. Cities in Asia are embracing the idea, with Pakistani minister announcing plans for 50 Miyawaki forests in Lahore, and Indian officials setting a target to plant 1,000 in Chennai.

【推荐3】Music is a language which speaks to everyone-from the day we are born we hear music of some kind of our lives. But there are as many different kinds of music as there are different languages, and it is impossible to describe them all. Here are just a few well-known types.
Classical music is serious Western European music from the Middle Ages to the present (1500 to today) and it was often written for a large orchestra, or for a small group of players. Many instruments can be used. A lot of music was also written to be sung-as opera. Classical music is very popular and schools often teach this type of music.
Jazz developed in the Southern United States at the beginning of last century. The black people of these states, who were originally slaves from Africa, had their own rhythms. Jazz brought classical music and African rhythms together.
Blues was originally black country music from the Southern United States at the beginning of last century. It is slow, usually sad music which is often sung by one person with a guitar.
Rhythm and Blues (R&B) developed from the blues in America in the 1940s. It became faster and more complex and used more instruments such as saxophones (萨克斯管) , guitars, pianos, drums. The music was often about city life and white musicians started playing it as well.
Musicians in the 1950s developed rock and roll from Rhythm and Blues and it became popular with young people. It spread to Europe in the 1960s and is now known in most countries. A lot of pop music comes from rock and roll.
Pop music developed from rock and roll in America and Britain in the 1960s and is now in every country. The name is used for most commercial (商业的) music, which we can buy on records and hear on “pop radio”. It is usually played by groups who often use electronic instruments and make videos to go with their records.
