A LETTER TO A GIRLFRIEND
One day a young man was writing a
letter to his girlfriend who (live) just a few miles away in a nearby town.
Among other things, he was

The more he (write) the more poetic he (become). Finally, he
said that in order to be with her he (suffer) the greatest difficulties, he
(face) the greatest dangers anyone (can) imagine. In fact, to spend only one
minute with her, he (climb) the highest mountain in the world, he (swim) across
the widest river, he (enter) the deepest forest and with his bare hands fight
against the wildest animals.
He (finish) the letter, (sign)
his name and then suddenly (remember) that he (forget) to mention something
important. So, in a postscript below his name, he (add):
“ By the way, I (come) to see you on Wednesday – if it

HEALTH TIPS FOR
TRAVELLERS
Travel is fun. Travel is
exciting. But it’s not fun or exciting if you get ill. You may think, “Not me.
I won’t fall ill on my holiday!” But, for many people, that is what is happens.
Of course you do not want to
spend your holiday ill in bed. If you have heart trouble, you don’t want to
make it worse. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three
things you should remember when you travel: relax, sleep and eat well.
A holiday is supposed to be a
time for relaxing. but to our regret very often it is not. Think about what you
do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit: museums, shops,
parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places This
can be very tiring. Your feet may hurt. You’ve got a terrible headache after a
few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Do not ask your
body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets ill
easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice spot. In good weather, look for a
quiet park bench. Or you can stop at a café. You can learn a lot by watching
people while you rest.
You should not forget about
sleep. If you want to stay healthy you need to get a good night’s rest.
You may have trouble
sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may
be uncomfortable. If this is true, don’t hesitate to change rooms or hotels.
Or, you may not get enough sleep for another reason. In many cities the
nightlife can be very exciting. You may want to stay out late at night. In this
case you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can
make a big difference.
Finally, if you want to stay
in a good shape, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of food.
Your body needs fresh fruit and vegetables, and some milk, meat or cheese. No
doubt when you are in a new country, you will wish to try new food. But you
need to be careful about how much you eat. Try to avoid eating lots of rich
food.
So, remember this: if you
want to enjoy your holiday, take good care of yourself. Give your body some
rest. Get enough sleep and eat good, healthy food.
