I Hate to Be Too Fat or Too Thin

Look at me! I'm just fit in my medium size clothes. Thankful for that.

 

I hate to be as fat as a balloon, and dislike to be as thin as a bamboo. Isn't it just awful to see a "humpty-dumpty" and a stick standing side by side?

 

But usually, according to ancient Chinese custom, people think being fat means strong, so they encourage each other to get as fat as they could. When people meet each other, they used to say: "Hey guy, how lucky you are to have gained weight! You look much nicer than before! I hate hearing these words, espe-cially when they are said to me, because getting too fat doesn't mean healthy, but means danger; First of all, when there is too much fat in your body, it will squeeze and press your heart, and it would probably cause heart disease. Next, if there is too much fat in the vein, it would be easily stuffed or broken. Think about how terrible that will be! And you'll have other troubles in choosing XL size clothes, in running or jumping, etc. That's why nowadays young girls try to start a new diet and make themselves as slim as possible. But is getting too thin healthy? Of course not. I could tell you my own experience.

 

When I was very young I had only a bird stomach, refusing to eat enough food, and so I became so thin that my bones were jutting up and down under my skin. As a matter of fact, I was a frequent visitor to the hospital. When I learned it was because I didn't have enough food, so there were fewer helpful bacteria to protect my body from the invading virus, I forced myself to swal-low down more food and get into a fit size, and become healthy enough.

 

So, here I am, in a fit size, in my tit clothes. And I advise ev-erybody to keep fit, not to be too fat nor too thin, and keep healthy!

The topic was a unique and difficult one for junior middle school competitors. Helen, as a Grade Two student, made an ex-cellent speech on this topic and impressed the judges deeply. Her quick and cute answers to the judges also aroused great interest among audience, and they cheered and gave warm applause.
