12．Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have，but one cannot take good health for granted．It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy．There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape：eat right food，get enough sleep，and exercise regularly．
Proper nutrition（營(yíng)養(yǎng)）is important for good health．Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of"fuel（燃料）"．Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat．Eat plenty of foods high in protein，like meat，fish，eggs and nuts．Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals．However，don't overeat．It is not helpful to be overweight．
Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important．If you don't get enough sleep，you feel tired and easily get angry．You have no energy．Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality （人的個(gè)性）．Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night．If you do，your body will feel strong and refreshed，and your mind will be sharp．
Finally，get plenty of exercise．Exercise firms the body，strengthens the muscles，and prevents you from gaining weight．It also improves your heart and lungs．If you follow a regular exercise program，you will probably increase your lifespan（壽命）．Any kind of exercise is good．Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shape：basketball，swimming，bicycling，running and so on are good examples．Sports are not only good for your body，but they are enjoyable and interesting，too．
If everybody were to eat the right foods，get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly，the world would be a happier and healthier place．We would all live to be much older and wiser．

10．A"silver bullet"（子彈） is a way to make everything better．
The belief that there is magical power in the metal silver goes back to ancient Greece．In the stories of other cultures，a silver bullet is the only way to vanquish monsters like werewolves（狼人）．
Writer Stephen King is a master of scary stories in America．His book"Silver Bullet"is about a man who turns into a werewolf with every full moon and attacks people in a small town．It can only be killed by a silver bullet．As with many of King's books："Silver Bullet"was made into a film in 1985．
Silver bullets also have roots in an early American cultural character．"The Lone Ranger"began as a popular radio show in the 1930s．It turned to be a hugely popular television show in the 1950s and was remade into a movie in 2013．The Lone Ranger was a Texas Ranger，a kind of lawman．When his team members were attacked and killed，he was left alone．When he looked for the bad guys，the thing he left behind to show his identity was a bullet made from the precious metal silver．He used it as a symbol of justice （正義） and law．
There are other words that are close in meaning．The Latin word"panacea"means an herb that would cure all illnesses．The Greek word"panacea"means"cure-all"．
Of course，if something is said to be a panacea or a silver bullet for all your problems，it most likely is not．That's why these terms are often used in the negative form：There is no silver bullet to solve the problem of homelessness in America．There is no panacea to cure all the world's ills．So，if someone wants to sell you a silver bullet to cure all your troubles，don't buy it．
