What can you do to have a healthy life? (SELECTIVIDAD)

What can you do to have a healthy life? (154)


I personally think that, in order to have a healthy life, the most important thing is to do some sport regularly. Of course, you must also eat properly, not smoke, not drink much alcohol and, above all, not take any kind of drugs.
We know it is difficult not to eat fast food, no to have some cold beers when it is hot in the summer, not to smoke a cigarette with your friends outside the disco or something worse. But everybody must agree they are not good for your health and can be even dangerous. Despite this fact, the pollution and the speed we notice in modern huge cities contribute to the harmful risk factors we undergo every day.
So, and if we want to have quality life standards, it is unavoidable to do some exercise since it is the only way we have to diminish the damages we are always exposed to.

A Personal Profile (3º ESO)


A Personal Profile (141)

Hello, This is me!

My name is X and I am Y years old. I live in Z with my parents and sister. I go to W High School and I am studying a lot this year because I want to go to University in the future.

I usually go to the cinema and I sometimes go out with my friends at night, but what I prefer is doing sports, like playing volley-ball and going swimming. I am learning to play the guitar, too.

I like languages although I can only speak Spanish and English; this is why next summer I am going to London because I want to improve it.

I never go out at night during the week because I have to study but, in the weekends, I sometimes go dancing to the disco or to a friend's party.

My Favourite TV Programme (2º ESO)




My Favourite TV Programme (93)

My favourite TV programme is 'House'. It is very popular in every country around the world, although it is an American series.

The main character is House, a doctor resembling the mythical Sherlock Holmes because he is always able to solve any medical case presented to him, no matter how difficult it can be. You could say it is a mystery series or even a thriller.

in addition, it is very interesting the relation House has with the other doctors and patients, as well. Perhaps, this is why I like 'House' a lot.
