Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 6 to 10.

Everyone wants to live a long and healthy life. It’s important to take care of ourselves and make choices that promote good health. By making simple lifestyle changes, we can increase our chances of living a long and fulfilling life.

Exercise is important for staying healthy. Doing activities like walking, jogging, or dancing makes our hearts strong, muscles toned, and bones healthy. It also makes us feel happy and lowers the chances of getting sick, like heart disease and diabetes.

Eating good food is very crucial too. We should eat different fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean meats. These foods give us important vitamins and energy. We should try not to have too many sugary drinks, processed foods, or snacks with lots of fat. Eating healthy helps our bodies stay strong, keeps us at a good weight, and reduces the chance of getting sick.

Getting enough sleep is also essential for our bodies. When we sleep, our bodies rest and get better. It helps our bodies be strong and our brains work well. If we don't get enough sleep, we can feel tired, have trouble paying attention, and get sick more easily. We should try to sleep for seven to nine hours every night.

Last but not least, we need to manage stress to stay healthy. Stress can make our bodies and minds feel bad. We can find good ways to handle stress, like doing relaxing activities, enjoying our hobbies, or talking to our friends and family. When we manage stress in healthy ways, it helps us stay healthy and happy.

One day, Jack’s teacher, Miss Emily, came to their classroom and shared an exciting story about living a healthy life. She told them about a magical land called "Healthytown" where everyone was happy and full of energy. In Healthytown, the residents ate nutritious foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

He also learned that being active every day, whether it's riding a bike or playing tag, could make his muscles strong and his heart healthy.

He noticed that he didn’t get tired as quickly and could run faster during soccer games. He even inspired his friends to join him in his healthy lifestyle journey.
