Unit 4: Exercising
Question: Having a healthy body is important for young people. Describe
how you exercise your body regularly.
Answer 1:
I exercise a lot. It keeps my body healthy. I go to the gym after work or do some simple workout
at home. On weekends, I jog at the park for thirty minutes or an hour. I also play sports like
soccer and basketball. When I exercise, I feel relieved from pressure. A sound mind should be in
a sound body. That’s why I like exercising.

Give a brief description about your physical activities.
Tell the general reason why you exercise.
[example: It keeps my body healthy.]
Give examples of exercises that you do.

You may add another supporting reason why you exercise.
