Once there lived a young but foolish king and queen in ancient China. One day the queen had a baby daughter. When they saw their baby, they both cried. “My goodness (天哪！)! How small and ugly it is! It has no hair or teeth! It’s a monster!” they sent for all the doctors in the country and ordered them to prepare some medicine for her.
“When she takes your medicine, she must grow up to the right size at once and have hair and teeth when we see her again, ” the king said angrily, “If you can’t do this, you will be dead.”
The doctors all thought it impossible. But they dared not say anything against the king. Just then an old doctor stepped forward. “Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to build a wooden house near the Kun Lun Mountains. We must live there till the snow melts (融化) for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only in six years. So we need twelve years.”

Spring Festival makes us fat. We visit our relatives and eat. We watch television and eat. We play video games and eat. By the end of the holidays we are fatter and less fit.
The easiest way to avoid getting fat is to eat le ss! There is just too much good food to eat. And much of that good food is not good for our health. Hamburgers, Kentucky Fried Chicken and French fries taste good but harm our health.
Most of these foods come from America. And Americans are worried about their children, too. 25% of American kids are overweight. They get less than 15 minutes of exercise a day, drink 2 litres of soft drinks, and spend 20% of their day watching TV and playing video games.
However, most American kids are very active and there are lots of opportunities for them to play sports. They play basketball, American football, soccer, baseball and ice hockey (冰上曲棍球). There are even “Little Leagues” for kids as young as 5 to play organized sports.
So what can you do in China to get fit instead of fat? Well, you can start doing simple things, like walking more. Get off the bus one stop before your school and walk the rest of the way. Swimming is also a great way to keep fit. Just look at Guo Jingjing! Or you can skip rope ( 跳绳) or play basketball with friends.
It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you do it. So, get up early, get active and get fit！

In the modern world, pressure is a serious problem. Today, most student are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates. While others may worry about their tests. Even they can't get enough and good sleep. I’m always under pressure, too.
How can we solve the pressure problems? Here are my suggestions.
The first, tell your pressure to someone. I think a conversation with parents or teachers is necessary to solve the problem. We can talk our problems with our teachers or parents.

In order to relax ourselves, we can turn to some of our hobbies and interests. Different students have different ways. For example, we can listen to music, watch TV, or read some books. But for me I often exercise. I enjoy it. I think taking exercise can not only rest our brains and eyes but also help build our bodies.
