没有比在悲惨中回忆幸福的时刻更痛苦。 --Dante 但丁 ( 意大利诗

人 )

There are approximately 3,000,000 people dying from smoking or related diseases every year. It is high time that we did something to stop people smoking.

In the first place, people should be aware of the negative impact of smoking and as a result, more people will resist the temptation of cigarettes. In the second place, government should set more regulations to limit tobacco production.

In short, I firmly believe that, with the efforts of the whole society ,we can realize the dream of having a cleaner world with less smoking.

In today‘s world, most people gradually are aware of the importance of keeping fit so as to enjoy better life quality and longevity. In order to possess a healthy body, not only should we keep a nutritious diet and adequate sleep, but taking exercise regularly is also of great importance. Doing sports will greatly increase people's metabolism( 新陈代谢 ), and strengthen our bodies. Sports also help to refresh people's mind from brainwork all day and night, and even more surprisingly, exercising can stimulate people's brains to work more actively and creatively.

All in all, I firmly believe that sports are not the business of a small group of athletes, but a life-long pursuit that every person should bear in mind and try to put into practice. Not only do sports benefit individuals, the improvement of the nation's health would be a huge contribution to our country's development.

As the saying goes, you don’t know what happiness is until you lose it; you don’t know what health is until you are ill. “Health is of vital importance to life” sounds like a cliché to everyone, but it is absolutely true.

　 The neglect of the delicate balance of your body and soul, the harmful habits such as smoking, excessive drinking and burning mid-night oil will catch up with( 给你带来麻烦 ) you someday. How many big plans are interrupted by bad health! Even a normal life is impossible without the guarantee of health.

How to keep fit is an eternal topic of diversity and controversy. Regardless of all the different suggestions poured from all kinds of sources, one should do at least two things for him/herself. First, hold an active and optimistic attitude toward life and maintain mental well-being. Second, live a regular life and keep a balanced diet. Anyway, a healthy life is within reach when you begin to adjust your mind and body.

2014 年高考英语作文热门话题 --- 食品安全

我们的身体健康与食品安全息息相关，但现在我们却面临越来越多的食品问题如染色馒头、毒奶粉。请用英语写一篇 100-120 词的短文，简要分析食品问题形成的原因并提出相应的解决措施。

染色馒头 dyed steamed buns

毒奶粉 the notorious milk powder

possible version:

It is universally acknowledged that the safety of food is closely related to our health. As the famous saying goes, “we are what we eat.” However, things often go contrary to our wishes since we are faced with a series of food safety problems at present, ranging from dyed steamed buns to the notorious milk powder.

There are several reasons accounting for this severe problem. First and foremost, many manufactures produce fake food of poor quality in order to get higher profits. In addition, the relevant laws and regulations are imperfect and even ineffective. Last but not least, the public, especially customers from poor families, are not alert enough to the safety of food.

In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken to improve the situation. Firstly, it is essential that relevant laws and regulations on food safety should be enforced. Secondly, the relevant department should attach more importance to supervising the manufacturers. Also, the public’s awareness of food quality should be raised. Only by taking these actions can the problem be coped with successfully in the nearest future. We firmly believe our efforts will make an enormous difference.

近年来，许多先进的农耕技术已被引进入中国。食品的产量有了很大提高，人们有了更多的选择。然而，一些国人每天吃大量的垃圾食品，健康处于糟糕的状态中。请你根据以上情况写一篇文章提醒他们健康饮食的重要性。内容要点应包括： 1. 吃垃圾食品的坏处 2. 健康食品的好处 3. 你对他们在饮食方面的建议

In recent years, many advanced farming techniques have been brought into China. As a result, the food production has greatly improved and people have more choices for eating. However, some Chinese eat plenty of junk food every day, so that their health is in bad condition. In my opinion, it’s high time that they should be reminded to attach more importance to healthy eating.

There is no doubt that junk food does great harm to our health. As it contains too much sugar or fat, people who like eating it may gain much weight and have a higher chance of getting some diseases.

On the other hand, eating healthy food is good for our health. The nutrients contained in healthy food keep our body functioning well. Besides, it helps us build our body and fight disease.

On account of the facts mentioned above, I want to give those who like eating junk food some suggestions. Firstly, choose green food instead of junk food. Secondly, keep a balanced diet and develop good eating habits. Only by doing so can they keep fit and live a healthy life.

假如你们学校“英语爱好者俱乐部”将对“良好饮食习惯”这一话题进行讨论。请根据下列提示，用英语写一篇发言稿。内容要点应包括：

Dear friends,

As we all know, we are what we eat. Therefore, it’s very important for us to form healthy eating habits.

However, bad eating habits are still very common among us students. Some of us often go to school without breakfast; some like to have snacks; some others are particular about food; and still some eat or drink too much. All these bad habits will surely do harm to our health.

To keep fit, we should have various healthy diets, which generally include proper amount of fish, meat, vegetables, fruit as well as main food. Besides, we’d better have meals regularly.

In my opinion, we should try to develop healthy eating habits to build up a strong body. Only in this way can we have enough energy to study better.

That’s all. Thank you. （ 2006年福建高考书面表达真题）

Supplementary article 1: Breakfast

Breakfast is the most important meal in a day. For one thing, after a night’s sleep, most of the energy stored in the human body has been consumed. Breakfast serves the purpose of restoring energy, thus making us energetic again. For another, in the course of a day, morning is the period of time in which we work with high efficiency. Without breakfast, the efficiency would be decreased/reduced. Finally, the constant lack of breakfast can lead to stomach trouble. Therefore, to keep fit, we must have breakfast every day. It can be a glass of milk with some bread, or a bowl of porridge with some steamed bread, or anything else of the similar kind. Anyway, we must eat our fill, because a good breakfast can not only ensure our good health but also make a good beginning for a new day.
