Question

Spring Festival makes us fat. We visit our relatives and eat. We watch television and eat. We play video games and eat. By the end of the holidays we are fatter and less fit.

The easiest way to avoid getting fat is to eat le ss! There is just too much good food to eat. And much of that good food is not good for our health. Hamburgers, Kentucky Fried Chicken and French fries taste good but harm our health.

Most of these foods come from America. And Americans are worried about their children, too. 25% of American kids are overweight. They get less than 15 minutes of exercise a day, drink 2 litres of soft drinks, and spend 20% of their day watching TV and playing video games.

However, most American kids are very active and there are lots of opportunities for them to play sports. They play basketball, American football, soccer, baseball and ice hockey (冰上曲棍球). There are even “Little Leagues” for kids as young as 5 to play organized sports.

So what can you do in China to get fit instead of fat? Well, you can start doing simple things, like walking more. Get off the bus one stop before your school and walk the rest of the way. Swimming is also a great way to keep fit. Just look at Guo Jingjing! Or you can skip rope ( 跳绳) or play basketball with friends.

It doesn’t matter what you do as long as you do it. So, get up early, get active and get fit！
