Early to bed，early to rise，makes a man healthy，wealthy and wise.

This is an old English saying. Have you heard of it before？I mean that we must go to bed early and get up early in the morning. Then we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich (wealthy) and clever (wise)．

This is true. The body must have enough sleep to be healthy. Children of young age should have ten hours' sleep every night. Children who do not have enough sleep cannot do their work very well. They will not be wise and they may not become wealthy!

The body also needs exercise. Walking，running，jumping，swimming and playing games are all exercise. Exercise keeps the body strong.

Exercise also helps the blood(血液) to move around inside the body. This is very important. Our blood takes food to all parts of our body. The head also needs blood. Exercise helps us to think better! 

    Running is becoming popular these days. Many of us run for health. Doctors say many health problems come from these bad habits: eating and drinking too much, smoking and not taking enough exercise. Doctors tell us, "Eat and drink less, don't smoke, and exercise more."

    Running is a good form of exercise because it helps build a strong heart. It also helps most people lose weight. One 68-year-old woman runs three times a week. "I love to eat," she says. She runs to lose weight.

    Running is good for health in other ways, too. Many runners say running keeps colds and other small health problems away. "Running is my doctor," says one man.

    Running can also help people to relax. So today men and women of all ages enjoy running.

    Medical experts say most Americans do not get enough sleep. They say more Americans need to take a nap—that is to rest for a short period in the middle of the day. They give people advice to sleep lightly before continuing with other activities. The experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure.

    Some European and Latin American companies have supported the idea of napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase the amount of work that a person can do.

    Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other times. They say people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they say the best thing to do is to take a nap.  About twenty minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your effects until the end of the day. But experts said that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty minutes. A longer nap will put the body into deep sleep and waking up will be difficult.

Mother：Why don't you get up，Kate？It's time for school.

Kate：Sorry，Mum！

Mother：Oh dear！

Kate：I've got a headache and a cough.

Mother：

Father：What's wrong with Kate?

Mother： I told her to stay in bed till tomorrow.

Father：Nothing serious I hope!

Mother：

    You are so tired at night, but you can't sleep. Here are some good ideas.

First, you should be in a quiet room. That's important. You should put your feet in some warm water before you go to bed, and that's a traditional way. You should have a glass of milk. It's good for sleeping. You should think you are in a beautiful place. It's very quiet here, and there are many trees and you walk slowly. That sounds like a good idea. It can help you sleep soon.

    Sleeping is important to our health. Don't be worried. Go to bed early, eat more vegetables and do some exercise. And everyone will have a good sleep at night.
