is so much smoke in the air that it is unhealthy to live in many of worlds cities. We have cut

result, farmers in parts of Africa cant grow enough rice to eat. Wild animals are quickly
disappearing. We must save the earth.

London, the capital of Great Britain, is situated on the Thames River. It is the largest
city in Europe with a population of over 8 million. It is divided into four parts: the City,
Westminster, the West End and the East End.
The city is small in area but it is the commercial heart of London. Many banks
and offices are situated there. The Tower and St. Paul's Cathedral is very large and
fine. It was built in 1710. The famous English architect Christopher Wren planned and
built St. Paul's Cathedral. If the city may be called the commercial heart of London,
Westminster is the center of the administration. We can see the Houses of Parliament
there. It is a beautiful building with two towers and a very big clock called Big Ben.
Westminster Abbey is opposite the Houses of Parliament.
The West End with the best and most expensive clubs, restaurants and theatres,
beautiful houses and parks is the place where rich people live. Working people live in
the East End where there are no parks or gardens and no fine houses.

Nutrition plays a key role in maintaining good health and preventing many
diseases. In spite of all the information available about diets, Scientists still believe
that good nutrition can be simple. There are several basic rules to follow. Keep fat
intake low. Eat foods high in carbohydrates, which are the starches in grains, legumes
(beans and peas), vegetables, and some fruits. Avoid too much sugar. Limit salt. Eat
lots of fruits and vegetables, which are high in vitamins.
A healthful lifestyle is an active lifestyle. Lack of proper physical exercise can cause
tiredness, irritability, and poor general health. Physical fitness requires both aerobic exercise,
such as running, bicycle riding and swimming, and muscle-strengthening exercices, such as
weight-lifting.
Good health is acquired by saying no to bad habits such as smoking, drinking and
overeating and by avoiding situations that are constantly stressful. People can take
their lives and their happiness into their own hands. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is
the first step.
