Exercise is good for you because it can help you to keep fit and healthy. It is not enough just to eat a healthy diet. Exercise is important too. Exercise will make your muscles (肌肉)stronger. There are about 600 muscles in the body. They move your bones and let you move your joints（关节）. If you do not exercise your muscles, they will be weaker and smaller. One of the most important muscles in the body is the heart. To exercise your heart, you need to do something like swimming, or playing a game in which you run about. This will make you breathe more deeply and make your heart and lungs stronger. One of the places where you can exercise is at school. At school, children have PE lessons that help them to keep fit and well. Try to exercise at least three times a week because exercise is good for you!

I’m Emily. Three years ago, I thought I didn’t have enough time to do the housework, so I cancelled the cable(取消有线电视). But I still think it’s fun to watch TV shows when I get the chance.

My favorite show was The Life Laundry. It was so interesting. It came on Saturday mornings after Norm on This Old House and Rick Steve’s Europe. It was like Clean Sweep. It chose some common people. In the show, people took everything in the house outside so they could see how many things they had. Then they would go through each thing they had. Then they would go through each thing and decide whether (是否) to keep or sell it. When people sold some things they would never use, a team (团队)would make the home more beautiful with a new coat of paint. At the end of the show, everyone was always happy to see their home cleaned up and look spacious.

Antiques Roadshow came after The Life Laundry, which was confusing (令人困惑的)because The Life Laundry made you want to clean out your things, but it made you want to keep everything.
