Do you know how to be a healthy kid? Here are some rules you should follow. First, eat different food, especially fruit and vegetables. You may have a favorite food, but you'd better eat something different. If you eat different food, you will probably get more nutrients（营养物质）your body needs.

Second, drink water and milk as often as possible. When you're really thirsty, cold water is the No. 1 choice. Milk is a great drink that can give you more calcium（钙）your body needs to grow strong bones.

Third, listen to your body. How do you feel when you are full? When you're eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels comfortably full. Eating too much will not make you feel comfortable and make you feel fat.

Fourth, limit screen time. Screen time is the time you watch TV, DVDs and videos, or using computers. It is good to take more exercise such as basketball, bike riding and swimming. You can't watch TV for more than two hours a day.

Fifth, be active. One thing you'd like to do, as a kid, is to find out which activity you like best. Find ways to be active every day. Follow these rules and you can be a healthy kid. （ ）1. Which kind of drinks can give you more calcium?

Every year thousands of young people in England finish school and then take a year off before they start work or go to university. Some young people go to other countries and work as volunteers (志愿者). Volunteers give their time to help people. For example, they work in schools or hospitals, or they do something helpful for the environment. Pauline Jones, 18, lives in Cardiff, Wales. Next year she wants to go to university to study Chinese, but now she’s living in Belize. Pauline says, “I’m working with other people here to save the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) in the sea near Belize.

Several years ago，I spent most of my time at a mental hospital(精神病院) in our town.I found much joy there.At first it was a little scary to be there，but I stayed on，because I had a reason for doing this.

I volunteered in a locked－up(封闭的) environment.To my surprise，I found that a friend of my parents' was a patient in this hospital.I knew，when I was a baby，this woman wanted to keep me because she had no children.I looked after this woman and showed my old photos to her.Finally，she was able to remember some old things，and she said to me one day，“Dear，you should not come here.” But I wanted to bring something happy into this woman's life.I learned that because she had no family，she could not leave here and go home.So I brought her to my home twice，and I still remember the happy smile on her face.

I have never forgotten this volunteering experience.This woman later passed_away．I can't see her anymore，but I'm happy that I have done something to make a difference in another person's life.
