It was a beautiful spring morning — here were no clouds in the sky, and the sun is warm but not hot. Mr. Black saw an old man at the bus stop with a big, strong, black umbrella in his hand.

Mr. Black said to him, “Do you think we are going to have rain today?” “No,” said the old man, “I don’t think so.” “Then are you carrying the umbrella because the sun is too hot?” “No, the sun is not very hot in spring.” Mr. Black looked at the big umbrella again, and then the man said, “I am an old man, and my legs are not very strong(强壮). I must have a walking-stick(拐杖). But people will say, ‘Look! That man is so old!’ I don’t like that, so I carry an umbrella every day.”

Nick is a 14-year-old schoolboy. His life is full of exams and studies on weekdays. He has little free time. He thinks playing computer games is the best way to relax. When he has free time, he sits in front of the computer. Just like that way, he neither eats nor drinks for several hours.

Last weekend, he played games in front of the computer again. He was too excited and didn't want to move. He didn't have anything for six hours. When he had to go to the bathroom, he found he could not move. He was taken to the hospital. The doctor told him he should do some different kinds of activities. In other words, he needs more exercise to make him have a healthy body.

After coming back from the hospital, Nick follows the doctor's advice. He often plays soccer with his friends. Sometimes he still plays computer games or weekends, but he never does it for long. Now, he lives a happy and healthy life.

Today we find that school students hardly spend much time on sports. Is it because they aren't interested in sports? No, they often say they have other more important things to do.

What are these important things? Exams! They have to spend much time on all kinds of exams at school. So many of them almost become bookworms（书呆子）. Books stop them from going out for sports. Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers, the students have to work harder and spend most of their time on books. As for the students, they want to get good results so that they can improve their studies. So it is necessary for them to give all of their free time to their studies and stop their school sports.

In fact, education can't go without enough exercise, because a quick mind hardly goes along with a weak body. If you don't have a strong body you can never get anything or any great success in your life.
