Passage/case based questions. (1*4 =4)
A healthy body is essential for everyone, especially as we grow. To
achieve and maintain good health, we should focus on three main
areas: nutrition, exercise, and rest.
Nutrition involves eating a balanced diet that includes a variety of
fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins. These foods provide the
necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need to function well.
Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water is also very important.
Exercise keeps our bodies strong and fit. Activities like playing sports,
riding bikes, or simply going for a walk are great ways to stay active.
Regular exercise not only builds muscles and bones but also helps
improve our mood and energy levels.
Rest is just as important as nutrition and exercise. Our bodies need
time to recover, especially after physical activities. Getting enough
sleep helps us focus better in school and feel more energetic
throughout the day.
By concentrating on nutrition, exercise, and rest, we can create a solid
foundation for a healthy body and a happier life.
