Read the text and answer question 1,2

Health is the condition of our body and mind. It may be good or bad. Good health

means healthy body free from diseases. It is essential for everyone to lead a happy life.

If we are not in good health. We cannot concentrate on any activity in our life. A

proverb goes, 'Health is Wealth'. It means health is equally valuable as good or any

other personal possessions. We may have vast wealth we cannot enjoy them. But if we

are not healthy we cannot enjoy them. To keep ourselves healthy, we have to do certain

things. We have to eat a balanced diet. We must exercise regularly to keep our body fit

for work. There is an old saying:

'Early to bed and early to rise makes a person healthy, wealthy and wise. So we must

not keep late hours. We should go to bed early at night and rise early is the morning.

Peace of mind is another condition for good health. So we must not worry over small

things of life.
