Introduce yourself (name, age, address, phone number, occupation) and choose one of the following topics:
1. Compose a short article for a fitness magazine to express your health habits and how often you practice your favorite sport.
My name is Andres Alexander Montealegre, Im 29 years old, Im from Ibague, Im studying telecommunications engineering; I work for Movistar as an electronics technician in the support area; Im married with Paola Cardona, she is a lawyer. Now we have no kids.
The health is one of the most important parts of our life, without good health we are not able to perform activities such as go to work, go to school, university, visit some friends, in other words have a regular life without complications. In order to keep our health in good conditions doctors recommend healthy habits such as eat vegetables and fruits and reduce junk food with highly sugar concentrations and cholesterol. However, this short article is not about nutrition, it is about another important fact: health habits and how often I practice my favorite sport.
I usually do exercise three or four times a week. My routine normally starts at 06:00 a.m. I get up and fifteen minutes later I am ready to begin my favorite sport: walking and climb stairs. I do it three times a week to make sure I am having a good cardio exercise to keep my weight normal and body resistance. I complete my exercise playing soccer but I practice this sports only at weekends and depending if my friends are available, normally we play Saturday every two weeks (every fifteen days). So my main sport is walking and climbs stairs during 45 minutes. I begin stretching my legs and arms, my back, and then I walk for 10 minutes to warm up my body, once my body warms up, I start to climb stairs, this stair has 150 steps and 45 degrees inclined, I climb twice and repeat it five times. I climb twice then I go to walk 500 meters then I climb again until I finish exhausted.
This routine helps me to keep my weight, my mind awake, reduce the food anxiety. I also drink water instead of eating a De Todito or drink a soda, I only eat bread at breakfast and for dinner I usually eat tuna and a tomato, carrot and onion salad, with a juice of any fruit with a little portion of sugar.
However, you can tell I tried to avoid junk food at all, but this is not true. Once a week we go with my wife to a fast food restaurant (normally Wednesday) and we eat hamburgers, French fries, hot dogs, pizza, fried chicken, sandwiches and to reduce calories we drink a Coca-Cola zero.
The important thing is trying to find the balance between food and exercise, taking care of the things you eat, so that you can eat all kinds of food without restrictions and having a good health and a good life. Just remember everything you do, do it with moderation.
2. Make a list of words you may use and write the main idea and the supporting ideas of your text.

Supporting ideas Practice a sport or does exercise reduce the risk of get a hearth disease. Eat fruits and vegetables instead of junk food. Have a good balance between calories and exercise.
