To eat healthily, I usually don’t eat food high in fat, like French fries or cookies. I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruit. Besides, I only eat a little meat. On the other hand, doing exercise is very important. Taking exercise every day helps us build a strong body. What’s more, I think friends are an important part of one’s health. I always feel better when I am with friends than when I am alone. When I am with my friends, I always laugh. Laughing is also an important part of health. It is good to stay with my friends.
By eating properly(合适地) and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy. By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind happy.

To help protect people against the novel coronavirus (新冠病毒), scientists have created vaccines (疫苗). These days, people who are between 3 and 59 can get vaccinated (接种疫苗). Here is something about vaccines.
There are many different ways to make vaccines. At least 115 different vaccines for the novel coronavirus are being developed around the world right now. Many of them may not work or may have influences that can be dangerous. That is why testing is very important.
Before a vaccine is ever tested on humans, it’s first tested on animals to make sure it seems safe. Testing the vaccine on humans is done in several different periods. In Period (阶段) 1, a small group of people are given small amounts (数量) of the vaccine to see if it has any bad influences. Period 2 still tests the vaccines safety, but it’s mainly a test to see if the vaccine seems to work. If Period 2 goes well, the vaccine can begin Period 3. During Period 3, the vaccine is tried on a much larger group of people to see how well it works.
The novel coronavirus is very serious and it influences the whole world. There is huge pressure to develop a working vaccine quickly. It normally takes seven or more years to develop a safe vaccine that works well. Luckily, this time, developing the vaccine against the novel coronavirus doesn’t need so long, scientists have created it.
Thanks to the scientists, we can get vaccinated so soon. All of us believe that we can overcome the novel coronavirus completely.

Have you ever noticed that many people have purple marks on their shoulders, backs, even necks. These marks were the result of “cupping therapy (拔火罐治疗)” a traditional Chinese medical practice that started more than 2,000 years ago.
Many people said that they had benefited (受益) from the therapy. In traditional Chinese medicine, cupping is said to open up the pores (毛孔) and help the flow of blood and energy through your body. It also helps people to reduce headache and muscle (肌肉) pain, especially when they get hurt in sports.
Cupping leaves round purple marks on the skin. These marks can remain for two to three weeks. It’s necessary to notice that cupping shouldn’t be done on areas where the skin is broken. You shouldn’t get cupping treatments when you have a high fever. Children, older people and people with certain diseases are among those who shouldn’t have cupping. If you want to try cupping, talk to your doctor about your health conditions first. Remember that cupping is just a complementary treatment. Don’t expect it to take the place of medical treatments in hospitals.
Generally speaking, cupping is considered as a safe method when it’s performed correctly. However, glass cups and fire aren’t the safest materials to work with. Because of that, some people began to use plastic cups with a pump (泵) instead.
The question of how cupping therapy works still needs to be answered. But the treatment is rather safe and it could be helpful for many people, and the therapy can be used as part of a whole treatment program including other exercises, food choices and lifestyle changing.

Baby panda says hello to world
Three years ago, Bing Dwen Dwen became the mascot for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.
The design comes from 5,816 works from 38 countries and areas. Cao Xue, the chief designer of Bing Dwen Dwen, said the idea first came from the traditional Chinese snack bingtanghulu. But a simple snack couldn’t stand for a country by itself. Cao’s team tried many animals and plants and finally decided on a panda.
However, there were already too many cartoon images of pandas. Cao first decided that it should be a baby panda instead of an adult one, so its body is as long as its head.
Cao’s team looked all over the world to collect all the panda designs they could find. They wanted to make sure their panda looked special. They visited the panda nature reserve in Wolong, Sichuan, to get ideas. They found that baby pandas are pigeon-toed(内八字)and often lean in while standing.
Now the panda in an ice shell is made into toys and models, as well as printed on notebooks, badges(徽章)and bags. People of all ages like them very much. “Design is like dancing with chains. I’m glad we performed a good dance.” Cao said.

【推荐1】Seeing is believing(相信)but if our eyes don’t work, how can we see to believe?
Today more and more kids wear glasses before going to middle school. Because they spend too much time watching TV or playing computer games without a rest. But we must do something to protect(保护)our eyes because they are important for us to see the world.
Love your eyes. Every day, when we open our eyes, we can see the lovely friends and parents, beautiful flowers and green trees. Without them, there is only darkness. It is like a house without any light. How important our eyes are!
Remember to rest your eyes. When you use the computer for an hour or two, it is time to stop to have a 30-minute rest. At school, you need to do eye exercises. Closing your eyes for resting is helpful. And often look at green trees or grass. In these ways, your eyes will feel relaxed.
Have good habits. When writing homework and reading, it is important to keep a distance(距离) of 30 cm between your eyes and books. We should never touch our eyes with dirty fingers. Before and after swimming, use eye drops. Eat something healthy for eyes, such as carrots, fish and eggs.

Listen first
One of the best English speaking tips is to listen carefully to understandable English every day. Most people turn to textbooks to study English grammar rules, but you cannot learn how to pronounce correctly by reading them. Instead, listen to the pronunciation of native English speakers and watch the movements of their mouths.
Practise
Read aloud in English for 15-20 minutes a day in front of the mirror, which helps in accent reduction and improves your speaking skills.
Also, talking with a good English speaker can help improvise (即兴发挥) your usage of words and formation of sentences.
Think in English
If your goal is to speak English fluently, it is necessary for you to think in English. Make up the sentences in English as you think about them before saying them. With practice, you can respond automatically (自动地) in English.
Be more confident
Try to relax if you’re speaking English. When you speak at a normal speed, you’ll find that you’ll be able to pronounce the words correctly. Most of the time, the person who you are talking to doesn’t notice your mistakes.
In a word, leaning English does not happen overnight. Follow these tips and practise daily.

【推荐3】Ned and Miles are students at different colleges. Ned applies for an online school, while Miles attends classes on a school campus. The two students each believe that their school system is better than the other.
Ned: Hey, Miles. Are you free to see a movie tomorrow night?
Miles: Sorry, no. I’ll have a class tomorrow and a lot of homework to finish up.
Ned: Oh, that’s too bad. I’m so glad I take classes online. I can decide when, where and how to complete my lessons. It saves a lot of time.
Miles: It sounds good, but I actually really enjoy going to class because it’s a great way to get to know other people. It also helps me learn how to work well with others.

Miles: But answering questions through emails takes too much time. You may fall behind on your studies.
Ned: You can fall behind, too. What if you get sick or your class gets canceled because the weather is bad? Those aren’t problems for online classes.

Ned: I’m confident in learning by myself. Besides, an online class gives me more free time to take part in other activities.
Miles: I still prefer having classmates to brainstorm and discuss ideas with. I believe that improves my learning all the time.
Ned: I’m pretty self-disciplined (自律的), and I work better on my own. I can’t focus when working with others.
