I have an e-friend. His name is Jeanie. I call him Nick Brown. He is studying in Class 1, Grade 7, too. He is a nice boy. He is tall. He has short hair and small eyes. He wears a pair of glasses all the year round. He is good at chatting (聊天). He has a sense of humor (幽默感). I like to chat with him. He likes singing, but he doesn't sing well. He says he needs practice. He loves basketball, but he can't run fast. So he seldom (很少) wins the matches. But he really enjoys it. He says basketball is really good exercise and it helps to build his character (性格). He is interested in playing computer games and he spends a lot of his free time playing them. I don't think it's good for his eyes.
Nick's favorite festival is the Chinese New Year. Do you know why? Because he can get some red packets from his grandparents, his parents and his relatives. Also he can have a long holiday. He can play lots of games during the holidays. He often says, "I want to be a designer when I grow up." On weekdays, Nick works very hard. He listens to the teachers carefully. He is good at his lessons. All the teachers and students like him.
Eating healthily is important for you. Good eating habits are good for you in your whole life.
Our body needs energy to work. Where does energy from? It's from the food you eat every day. But it's not from one kind of food. It needs many different kinds of foods. To balance your diet, you should try to eat different foods. You are what you eat. For example, if you eat too much meat but little other foods, you will be fat. In fact, our body needs nutrients (营养) from many kinds of food like meat, vegetables, fruits and sugars. Don't forget to brush your teeth after eating sugars, because sugars are bad for your teeth.
