q: what kinds of exercise do you think are the best for your health?
different people need different exercises. i think swimming is best for my health. first, i like swimming, so i go twice a week. second, it’s a full body exercise. you get exercise from your head to your ankles. third, it’s an exercise suitable for the whole year since there are lots of indoor swimming pools. i also like to jump rope, ski and skate. i can jump rope whenever i have several minutes of free time. it’s good for my bones. skiing and skating are good for my balance and they are fun.

q: young men get up late while old men get up early, which one is better?
i think young men get up late because they go to bed late and need more sleep than old men. old men usually go to bed early and don’t need much sleep. for kids like me, it’s better to go to bed before 10 o’clock because our bodies need enough rest to keep healthy. in china, we have to get up early on school days. we are asked to arrive in the classroom before 7:40. high school student need to go to school earlier. so, it’s better to go to bed early and get up early. but it’s crazy to get up too early like my grandparents. they get up at 5 o’clock in the morning.
q: would you like to exercise outdoor?
yes, it’s fun to exercise outdoor with fresh air. i like to jump rope, play basketball and ride the bicycle. sometimes i go skiing in winter. i climb mountains in spring and autumn.
