英语作文:How to live a healthy and active life

In order to live a healthy life you need to eat well, rest well, exercise well and perform daily activities accordingly. If you don't eat well then you probably won't have enough energy to do your daily tasks such as studying, cleaning the house or maybe even cooking. By eating well, you need to eat a lot of vegetables and proteins, you shouldn't eat too much meat or sweets.Also, if you don't sleep well, you will probably yawn a lot the next day, which will make you perform less well in many things. In order to sleep well, you need to go to bed before midnight and sleep for eight hours or so, so that when you wake up you will feel refreshed. Exercise will make you healthier and strong, so that you can live until a really old age. You can jog, play basketball or tennis or do many other athletic sports in your free time. Aside from living a healthy life physically, you also need to have a healthy mental life. Most importantly, you should have some hobbies that you are pursuing so that you are devoting your life to something meaningful, instead of wasting it. For instance, I like to read very much, so I read a book or two each day, and I improve my reading skills by looking up new vocabularies in the dictionary constantly. Hence, on top of living a healthy physical life, I also live a healthy mental life.
