I have a store. Sometimes I have to work in the back of the store. When someone comes in the store and they don’t see anyone, they think the store is closed. Just to make it clear that I am in the store and ready to help, I put a bell on the table. Next to the bell I put a note that says, “Please ring（使发出响声）the bell if you need help.”
It worked well at first. I could always hear the bell even though I was listening to music. For the first week, I never missed a customer（客人）. Unluckily, however, my great idea didn’t last long. Some people might enjoy ringing the bell for fun. Children played a big part in this problem. They would come into the store, ring the bell, and run outside again. I had to keep running from the back of the store to the front. Finally, I had to drop the bell in a box under the table. However, I forgot to take away the note. This turned into the real solution（解决）to my problem.
Now, when someone comes into the store, I know that they need help when I hear them shout, “Hey! Where is the bell ”

As winter comes, hands can easily get cold. Gloves might be a good idea, but we couldn’t wear them all the time. However, this was not a problem for ancient（古代的）Chinese people, who had a fine tool to warm their hands: hand warmers.
There is one story about this tool. Emperor Yang from the Sui Dynasty （朝代）visited Jiangsu in winter.

By the Song Dynasty, the warmers became popular among the common people. More and more people bought and used them in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Many poets kept a record of people using hand warmers.
In the early days, copper（铜）was used in the outside of making hand warmers. And inside a hand warmer, there were coals, sometimes with flowers, giving off a nice smell when burned.
Ancient hand warmers had different designs, and there were also some fashioned shapes which looked like pumpkins, flowers and turtle shells. The pictures on the warmers would usually be animals or symbols with good meanings, such as deer, flowers or the Chinese characters for a long life.

Healthy lifestyle
It’s known that a healthy lifestyle is the most important thing in our life. But now people are not as healthy as they once were. Nowadays, everyone is under too much pressure, even including the primary school students.
Firstly, we should have a balanced diet. A balanced diet is important for our health. We need to eat more and more vegetables and fruit. It’s important for us not to eat junk food, such as hamburgers and ice-cream. Because it’s bad for our health and it can make ourselves fat and unhealthy.
Secondly, we need to do exercise as much as we can. If we want to have a strong body, exercise can make me keep healthy. Exercise is fun because we can play with our friends and make more friends by exercising. Doing sports every day is one of the most helpful things on healthy lifestyle. It can make us energetic.
Finally, as a middle school student, I’d like to say that we need more time to sleep and relax. Sometimes we can’t sleep well. The reason is that we are stressed out and sometimes we play on line. If we can’t have enough sleep, we will be too tired to do anything well. So using the Internet less and taking a walk might be good ways for us to sleep well. Traveling to somewhere also helps a little. In my opinion, the best way to sleep well is listening to peaceful music or drinking a cup of milk before sleeping.
All in all, taking care of ourselves and having a healthy lifestyle are important. Our health is of great value and we should try our best to be in good health.
