【答案】例文
Keep healthy, please
It is important for everyone to keep healthy. But many students often eat fast food instead of breakfast. At weekends they spend a long time playing computer games and take less exercise. These do harm to their health badly. Here are some of my ideas.
First, stop eating fast food and have breakfast every day. Second, don’t spend too much time in front of the computer. And take some exercise with your friends outside the house, such as running, riding your bike, playing football and so on. At last, when you don’t feel well, go to see the doctor in time.
Look after yourself and keep healthy, please.
