Rise with the lark 早起
早起是一种好习惯，因为它能给你带来很多好处。早起有助于身体健康，有助于学习，有助于品德培养。英国有句俗话，“Early to bed, and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”这是千真万确的，希望大家养成早起的习惯。（注：品德培养 train character；俗话 a saying）
Some students are often late for class because they get up late. Getting up late not only affects their studies but also is a bad habit. To get up early is a good habit, for it can do you much good. Getting up early can help you to be healthy. The air in the morning is fresh. If you breathe such air, it does you a lot of good. You can have some sports, too in the morning. This can make you stronger. The fresh air and quietness in the morning make you think more quickly than any other time of the day and memorize what you have learned easily. Another reason for you to think quickly and memorize things easily is that you have taken a long rest during the night.
Getting up early can also help you to train your character. Some students can get up early, but some can not. This needs perseverance. There is a saying in English, “Early to bed, and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” This is very true. I hope everyone will form the good habit of getting up early.
