Let’s break this down step by step.
You’re being asked to write a short speech called “Me and keeping fit…” using as many words as possible from the green word list at the top. You also have guiding questions to help you think about what to include.
First, let’s look at the word list:
- Stress, Relax, Exercise, Sport, Go for walks
- Eat regularly, Vegetables, Fast food, Fizzy drinks, Alcohol, Cigarettes
- Medical check ups, Pain killers, Computer, Daily regime
- Meeting friends, Drink (probably means water or healthy drinks)
Now, the guiding questions ask things like:
- What foods should you eat? → Vegetables, eat regularly
- What foods to avoid? → Fast food, fizzy drinks, alcohol, cigarettes
- Why relax? → To reduce stress
- How much sleep? → Part of daily regime
- How often see doctor? → Medical check ups
- What causes stress? → Maybe too much computer time, not enough relaxation
- What can you do to avoid stress? → Relax, go for walks, meet friends, exercise
So your speech should be personal — start with “I...” and talk about YOUR habits, what you do well, and what you could improve.
Let’s build it:
Start with:
“I try to keep fit by eating vegetables and eating regularly. I avoid fast food and fizzy drinks because they are unhealthy.”
Add exercise:
“I exercise every day — sometimes I go for walks or play sport with my friends. Meeting friends helps me relax and reduces stress.”
Talk about rest and routine:
“My daily regime includes sleeping 8 hours a night. I try not to spend too much time on the computer.”
Mention health checks and bad habits:
“I visit the GP for medical check ups once a year. I don’t smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol — I know they cause health problems.”
End with improvement:
“I want to relax more and maybe cut down on pain killers if I get headaches. I’m working on making my lifestyle healthier!”
That uses almost all the words from the list and answers many of the guiding questions.
Final Answer:
I try to keep fit by eating vegetables and eating regularly. I avoid fast food and fizzy drinks because they are unhealthy. I exercise every day — sometimes I go for walks or play sport with my friends. Meeting friends helps me relax and reduces stress. My daily regime includes sleeping 8 hours a night. I try not to spend too much time on the computer. I visit the GP for medical check ups once a year. I don’t smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol — I know they cause health problems. I want to relax more and maybe cut down on pain killers if I get headaches. I’m working on making my lifestyle healthier!
