Good morning. I am Ella from pre1b. Now I am going to talk about how self-control influences your school life. It exerts impact on not only our mental health but also physical health.

      【段落大意：自律对于个人的身体和精神健康都有非常重要的意义】

      First of all, I want to mention one thing which is eating habit. Some students in our school are a little bit overweight or underweight. One of the main reasons to cause that problem is they don’t have good eating habits. They ate junk food and fast food sometimes and did not exercise regularly. There is a concession stand in our school, right beside the canteen. Every day, during the break, I could always see a long line in front of it full of students who would like to purchase new snacks, such as double-eggs ice cream and bubble-tea ice cream. And they really taste good from my point of view. However, I have to use my self-control against lure, because they pose a  threat on my health. For one thing, it’s high in sugar, protein and rich in flavor. Eating more is easy to gain weight and the fat is easy to accumulate on the stomach, forming a wide body shape. For another, the fatty acids contained in the creamer are easy to cause coronary heart disease. The trans fatty acid content in a 500 ml pearl milk tea per day is beyond the limits of normal human body.

      Secondly, there is a relationship between self-control and mental health. Practice has shown that people learn to control themselves by learning to be self-reliant. The sooner you take care of yourself, the better your mental quality. According to the latest research by American psychologists, children with strong self-control have a semester score of about 20% higher than that of the same IQ in the middle and high school.

      【段落大意：一个人的自律能力和他（她）的精神健康也有着密切的联系。实践表明，人们变得更自信以后，也会更加自律。根据美国心理学家最新的研究成果，拥有强大自律能力的中学生，学期总评成绩比其他同智商的学生要高出近20%】。

      On the whole, it’s would be wonderful if you could control your behavior. You’d avoid over-eating, all bad habits, procrastination, being late, buying stuff that you don’t need behaving in a bad manner. You would also avoid not losing school papers and homework, rushing at the last minute, and avoid detention. Instead, you’d have good health, a beautifully exercised body, excellent work habits, an organized life, success, good behavior, good mental health, healthy attitudes. I think you would enjoy life so much better. Therefore, self-control is very important.

      【段落大意：自律是一种会让你终身受益的品质。学会自律，你就能自然远离暴饮暴食和一切坏习惯，拒绝拖延症和过度消费；取而代之的，是拥有一个健康的身体、一个良好的学习习惯，过上有规律的生活，让自己更好地享受未来的人生和成功的喜悦】。
