Staying Healthy
There is no denying the importance of health. Without it， it is difficult to live a happy life no matter how much money or success one has. However， many people neglect their health. They develop unhealthy habits such as smoking or overeating， lead sedentary lives or succumb to the pressures of modern life. As a result， they develop serious but preventable diseases. In order to maintain our good health and lead lives that are as fulfilling as possible， it is important to take some steps. Those mentioned below are what do to stay healthy. The first step I take is to keep regular hours and stick to a healthy， balanced diet. This is not always easy to do in today's fast-paced society， but it is the basis of good health. Our bodies need sufficient nutrition and rest in order to function well and resist illness. The second step I recommend is to get regular exercise. This does not mean we have to run marathons or join expensive fitness centers. Studies have shown that even moderate exercise， such as walking， can have great benefits for our health if done on a regular basis. Third， I suggest seeing a doctor for an annual checkup. Most of us not think too much about our health until we feel that something is wrong. However， a doctor can often diagnose problems before they become serious enough to be apparent to us. Last but not least， I take time to relax and renew my spirits and mental energy every day. This is just as essential as physical exercise because or mental state often has a profound influence on our physical health. As the saying goes， “A sound mind in a sound body.”There are many things that we can do to stay healthy. The above steps are only a few suggestions. The important thing is to value our health and not neglect it. This means making healthy habits a part of our everyday life. There is no need to dwell on our health or take precautions against every disease known to man. If we simply develop a healthy way of living we are bound to live healthier， more satisfying lives.

保持健康
健康的重要性是不可否認的。如果不健康，一個人不管多有錢或多有成就，都很難過著快樂的生活。然而，很多人都忽視了自己的健康。他們養(yǎng)成了諸如抽煙或飲食過度的壞習慣，整天坐著不動，向現(xiàn)代生活的壓力屈服，因而得了嚴重的、但原本可預防的疾病。為了保持健康，過上能充分發(fā)揮自我能力的生活，采取一些步驟是很重要的。下列提到的便是我用來維持健康的方法。
我所采取的第一個步驟是作息規(guī)律并保持健康均衡的飲食。在現(xiàn)今節(jié)奏快速的社會，這種做法未必容易，可是這卻是良好健康的基礎。我們的身體需要足夠的營養(yǎng)和休息才能夠維持正常的運作并抵抗疾病的威脅。我推薦的第二個步驟是規(guī)律運動。這并不是說我們得跑馬拉松，或是加入收費昂貴的健身中心。研究顯示，就酸是像走路這種適度的運動，只要規(guī)律地做，也能對我們的健康有很大裨益。第三，我建議去看醫(yī)生，每年做一次健康檢查。我們大部分人除非感覺身體不舒服，否則根本不會太注意自己的健康。然而，醫(yī)生可以在我們發(fā)覺自己病情惡化之前先診斷出哪里有毛病。最后一項要點是，我每天會花時間好好放松，以此來恢復我的精神和腦力。因為我們的心理狀態(tài)通常對身體健康有很深淵的影響，所以和體能運動一樣，放松也是很重要的。俗話說：“健全的心靈，在于健全的身體。”我們可以用很多方法來保持健康，以上的步驟只是一些建議而已。最重要的還是要珍惜自己的健康，不要忽視它。也就是說，要讓健康的習慣成為每天生活的一部分。不過也沒必要一天到晚想著健康問題，或是想采取一切預防疾病的措施。只要我們養(yǎng)成健康的生活方式，就一定可以過著健康而且更令人滿意的生活。
