Project
Yesterday, we carried out a survey on students’ exercise habits in our school. The results are as follows.
From the diagram, we can see that 40% of students exercise less than once a week or never exercise. Experts recommend exercising at least three times a week, but we find only 28% of students manage that.
In my opinion, schools and teachers should stress the great benefits of exercise and organize more activities or competitions to develop students’ interest in exercise. Besides, PE lessons should be made full use of to ensure the required time spent on exercise.

Dear Lucy,
Learning with delight that you’re curious about Chinese high school students’ sports habits, I’m writing to share my own daily sports routine with you.
As for me, I stick to two main sports. I jog for 20 minutes every evening after finishing my homework to refresh myself, and play basketball with my classmates on the playground twice a week after school.
There are two key reasons for this. First, regular exercise builds up my strength and keeps me energetic enough to keep up with my busy school schedule. Second, playing basketball helps me learn the importance of teamwork and makes new friends.
What sports do you usually do?
Yours,
Li Hua

Hello, everyone. It’s my honor to deliver my speech titled Sports, Study and Life.
As the saying goes, exercise one hour a day, keep illness away. It’s universally acknowledged that a healthy body is the foundation for good study and a satisfying life. Not only does sport make our minds smarter in study, but also it leads us to enjoy our life in a more positive way. In my daily life, I like playing badminton with my friends, which makes me relaxed and refreshed.
In short, we should attach great importance to sports and take action from now on.
Thank you
for your listening
