68、ely, Jack and Rose书面表达Dear Lily, I am really upset to hear that you often feel tired both physically and mentally and even sleepy in class because of heavy learning burdens and frequent exams. If the situation continues, it will have a negative influence on your normal life and study. From my point
69、of view, nothing is more important than health in our daily life. So I would like to give you some suggestions on how to stay healthy and energetic. First of all, youd better go to bed early and have a good sleep. You should not stay up. Just as the saying goes. “Early to rise and early to bed makes
70、 a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”Whats more, a balanced diet is also of great benefit to our health. You should eat more healthy food such as vegetables, fruit and milk and so on and avoid food with too much fat. Last but not the least, it would be a good idea for you to take regular exercise after school, because that will greatly refresh you when you feel tired. I do hope you will find these suggestions beneficial and recover as soon as possible.Yours,Li Hua
