Is there anything more important than health? I don't think so. "Health is the greatest wealth," wise people say. You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.
If you have a headache, heartache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a sore throat or a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold in your head, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should consult a doctor. The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed.
After that he will prescribe some treatment, pills, tablets or some other medicine which we can buy at the chemist's. He will recommend you to stay in bed for some time, because there might be serious complications. The only thing you have to do is to follow his recommendations.
Speaking about doctors' recommendations, I can't help telling you one funny story.
An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He complained of weakness, insomnia, memory loss and serious problems with his heart, lungs and liver. The doctor examined the patient and said that no medicine could cure his desease.
Do you want to know what the doctor's advice was?
He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor recommended him to follow the rule: "Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is."
The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor's office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.
"But you know, doctor," he said, "it's not easy to begin smoking at my age."

Есть ли что-нибудь важнее здоровья? Не думаю. "Здоровье - это главное богатство", мудрые люди говорят. Вы не можете хорошо учиться или работать, когда вы больны.
Если у вас головная боль, боль в сердце, зубная боль, боли в спине, боль в ухе или боли в желудке, если вы жалуетесь на боль в горле или кашель, если у вас высокая температура и сильный насморк, или если вы страдаете от высокого или низкого кровяного давления, я думаю, вы должны проконсультироваться с врачом. Доктор проверит ваше горло, ваш пульс, ваше кровяное давление, померяет температуру, послушает сердце и легкие, проверит глаза, зубы или сделает рентген.
После этого он будет предписывать лечение, таблетки, или другие лекарства, которые можно купить в аптеке. Он будет рекомендовать вам оставаться в постели в течение некоторого времени, потому что могут быть серьезные осложнения. Единственное, что вам нужно сделать, это следовать его рекомендациям.
Говоря о рекомендациях врачей, я не могу не рассказать вам одну забавнаю историю.
Старик пришел к врачу. Этот человек был очень болен. Он жаловался на слабость, бессонницу, потерю памяти и серьезные проблемы с сердцем, легкими и печенью. Врач осмотрел пациента и заявил, что ни одно лекарство не может вылечить его болезнь.
Хотите знать, какие советы врача были?
Он сказал своему пациенту поехать в тихое место на месяц и хорошо отдохнуть. Кроме того, он посоветовал, чтобы он ел много мяса, выпивал два стакана красного вина каждый день, и долго гулял. Иными словами, врач рекомендовал ему следовать правилу: "Ешьте в удовольствие, пейте в меру и наслаждайтесь жизнью."
Врач также сказал, что если человек хочет быть здоровым, он не должен курить более одной сигареты в день.
Через месяц джентльмен пришел в кабинет врача. Он выглядел веселым и счастливым. Он поблагодарил врача и сказал, что он никогда не чувствовал себя более здоровым человеком.
"Но вы знаете, доктор", - сказал он, "это не просто - начинать курить в моем возрасте ".

About twenty years ago, all students in our country went to school only in the same school uniform. In 1990, it was canceled, and already students could wear what they want, going to school. Today, most schools are returning to school uniform, which is the same for all. We spend quite a long period of time in school walls and therefore the form is our daily clothes. Me personally, she likes. In it there is a certain, its grains austerity. Clothes are like second skin. She can to tell about man very much. As for the form, it largely disciplines, because we go to school not for a walk, but to gain knowledge. Another plus of this clothing-its cost, not all parents are able to dress the child every day in different outfits, and the form gives an alternative opportunity. Schoolboy, neatly dressed in uniform, looks very good, even if the family has financial difficulties. He will not greatly stand out among others and it is of great psychological importance for a teenager. There should be no social inequality in school, it seems to me, should not be. Well, the daily question "What to wear?"automatically removed. I have a lot of other clothes besides school uniforms. Favorite, perhaps - it's jeans and different tops and t-shirts. I do love a sports clothing. It is convenient everywhere: you can go to the store, to the library, to the girlfriend, just stroll along the waterfront. But as for the dresses - I'm out. It is possible that I have not yet reached a proper understanding of the beauty of clothes, but yet I am so very comfortable and very comfortable. Mom was trying to buy me a dress. Yes, it is very beautiful and quite expensive. Maybe when I grow up I'll wear evening dresses, but as long as I'm comfortable with my clothes, and my mother does not argue with me. She says, " Everything has its time." Mother, of course, absolutely right, it means that it simply didn't come still for me. As for my shoes, school shoes..
