            Being healthy does not necessarily mean only physical fitness. It also includes mental and
emotional wellbeing as well along with physical fitness. You need to follow some guidelines and
maintain a time table of your daily activities in order to stay fit and fine throughout your life span.
            The first and the most important point to be taken care of in order to remain healthy is by
following healthy eating habits. It is a must that you avoid consumption of unhealthy and junk
foods. Try to include those foodstuffs that are rich in all the nutrients that are very much essential
for proper growth of our body tissues. Make us that these foods are rich in vitamins, minerals,
proteins, good carbohydrates as well as fats. But, this is not the case. There are some types of fats
that are essential for the body as well. To make sure that your heart keeps healthy all the time, have
a wholesome meal.
            Burning of calories is also very necessary for good health. For this, you will have to plan
your schedule and give some time for exercise every day. This will prove to be very beneficial in
maintaining the wear and tear of all your body muscles. Another important point that you should
always keep in mind is that you cannot stay healthy by skipping meals. Instead of eating large
quantity of food at one single time, try to have 6 to7 small courses of meals at regular intervals.

This will help you maintain proper functioning of your digestive system. Apart from the solid
food, you must also pay attention towards liquids. You must drink at least 10 to 12 glasses of
water in the entire day. This maintains a very good rate of metabolism.
Sleep is another important factor with regards to health. Certain hormones which are
essential for making antibodies capable of fighting against diseases and infections are released by
our body when we sleep.

the correct answer to each of the question.
Social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace do not help you make more genuine
close friends, according to a survey by researchers who studied how the websites are changing
the nature of friendship networks. Although social networking on the internet helps people to
collect hundreds or even thousands of acquaintances, the researchers believe that face to face
contact is nearly always necessary to form truly close friendships.
"Although the numbers of friends people have on these sites can be massive, the actual
number of close friends is approximately the same in the face to face real world," said Will Reader at
Sheffield Hallam University. Social networking websites such as Facebook, Bebo and MySpace have
taken off rapidly in recent years. Facebook was launched initially in 2004 for Harvard University
members but has since expanded to over 34m users worldwide. MySpace, which was set up in
2003, has over 200m users and was bought by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation in 2005 for
$580m.
Previous research has suggested that a person's conventional friendship group consists of around
150 people, with five very close friends but larger numbers of people who we keep in touch with less
regularly. This figure is so consistent that scientists have suggested it is determined by the cognitive
constraints of keeping up with large numbers of people. But Dr. Reader and his team have found that
social networking sites do allow people to stretch this figure. The team asked over 200 people to fill in
questionnaires about their online networking, asking for example how many online friends they had, how
many of these were close friends and how many they had met face to face. The team found that although
the sites allowed contact with hundreds of acquaintances, as with conventional friendship networks,
people tend to have around 5 close friends. Also, 90% of contacts that the subjects regarded as close
friends were people they had met face to face. "People see face to face contact as being absolutely
imperative in forming close friendships," added Dr. Reader. He told the British Association Festival of
Science in York that social networking sites allow people to broaden their list of nodding acquaintances
because staying in touch online is easy. "What social network sites can do is decrease the cost of
maintaining and forming these social networks because we can post information to multiple people," he
said.
But to develop a real friendship we need to see that the other person is trustworthy. "We
invest time and effort in them in the hope that sometime they will help us out. It is a kind of
reciprocal relationship," said Dr. Reader, "What we need is to be absolutely sure that a person is
really going to invest in us, is really going to be there for us when we need them...It's very easy to
be deceptive on the internet."
