My name is Paul Miller. Sometimes I am too fat,  but lately I do not have this problem. My doctor tells me to jog. So early every morning I run for two miles. I do not run fast,  but I do not stop to rest. I jog before breakfast.
People call me a jogger. There are many joggers on my street. We often run together in the park or along the road. Jogging helps to keep us strong and healthy.
Jogging is very popular in the United States. People like to feel well and look nice. When my neighbors and I jog,  we help to keep our hearts and legs strong.
Many people do not jog,  but they do not get fat. They work hard on their jobs and they do not need to run before they go to work.
Diets are also popular. People on diets do not eat many foods that will make them fat. They learn to eat fruits and vegetables instead of candy or cakes.
My doctor tells me to eat only three meals a day. A diet is not necessary if I do not eat between meals. Some people like to eat many times a day. This is called snacking.
I feel healthy and my doctor is happy because I jog every day and I do not snack in the evening or after breakfast.

My grandparents can be good fun．They are retired，so they don’t work anymore．My grandfather is 68 and my grandmother is 67，but they are not too old to be active．They exercise by playing golf and they go out for meals and to the theater．Sometimes they take me out too．We have a good time．They also go on great holidays．Last year, they went to China and walked along the Great Wall!

Sometimes, my grandparents like to criticize（批评）me．They think that children today have an easy life．Life was very different when they were young and there are many things about my life that they do not understand．They tell me，over and over, how they had to start work at 16．They know that I will go on to university and won’t be getting a job until I am about 22! They also think that I have too many possessions（财产），such as mobile phones and computers．When they were young, they did not have anything like that．What they do not realize is that they cannot compare them with children today．They had the same kinds of things as the rest of people of their age-so do I．It would be very strange if I only had the possessions that they had when they were my age
