When it‘s cold and dark outside, the last thing you feel like doing is exercise. All you want to do is lie in bed for the winter months. However, regular exercise during winter will keep you energetic and help you beat the winter blues(抑郁). Don‘t let the weather be your excuse for turning into a lazy person. It is said that watching TV on a sofa or a couch for a long time will make one lose interest in life. Here are some great ideas to keep you active. Exercising Outdoors
Walking is a great form of exercise in all weather conditions. Make sure that you have suitable shoes and clothing. You should also check that the road you‘re walking quickly on a fresh or even a wet day and then having a warm shower can leave you feeling refreshed, and it can also protect you from catching diseases.
Other outdoor activities include tennis, hill climbing and many others. These activities tend to take place in clubs or groups and can be great for keeping you active. Exercising Indoors
If the outdoors is not your thing during the winter months, there are plenty of indoor activities for you to do, such as swimming, basketball, volleyball, and badminton. Most health clubs, schools and community centres also run exercise classes throughout the year such as dance and yoga classes.

Florence Nightingale was born on May 12th, 1820 in Florence, Italy. She was born to a wealthy and well-educated English family. When she was young she became interested in caring for the sick and wanted to work in nursing, but her parents would not allow her to be a nurse. They expected her to get married and live a traditional woman‘s life.
However, Nightingale had made up her mind, so her parents had to give in. She traveled throughout Europe during her early years and learned many languages including Greek, Latin, French and Italian. She also visited many of the hospitals in these cities and took many notes of the sanitary (卫生的) conditions in these hospitals. In 1849, she traveled to Europe to study the European hospital system. In 1854, she worked as a manager at the Hospital for In-valid Gentlewomen in London.
The following year, the Crimean War (克里米亚战争) broke out. Florence led 38 nurses and traveled to Scutari to help the wounded soldiers. When they arrived there they found the hospital conditions were very poor. Many of the wounded did not have beds and were lying on the ground. Florence and her nurses managed to improve the conditions. Florence also cared about the social welfare of the soldiers and would visit them during the night after every-one else had gone to sleep. She was referred to as \Lamp\
In 1860 she founded the Nightingale School for nurses at St Thomas‘ Hospital in London. Once the nurses were trained, they were sent to hospitals all over Britain where they introduced what they had learnt. Nightingale‘s concerns for sanitation, military (军队的)health and hospital planning practices are still in existence today. She died on the 13th August 1910.
