Your mind like your body is a thing where the powers are developed by effort.This is a principal(主要的)use, as I see it, of hard work in studies.Unless you train your body you can’t be a good sportsman, and unless you train your mind you can’t be much of a scholar(学者).The four miles a boatman covers at top speed is in itself nothing to the good, but the physical capacity(能力)to hold out over the distance is thought to be of some value.So a good part of what you learn by hard study may not be kept forever, and may not seem to be of much final value, but your mind is a better and more powerful instrument because you have learned it.“Knowledge is power”, but still more the ability of obtaining(获得)and using knowledge is power.If you have a trained and powerful mind, you are certain to have stored it with something and its value is more in what it can do, what it can grasp and use, than in what it contains; and if it were possible, as it is not, to come out of college with a trained mind and nothing useful in it, you would still be ahead, and still, in manner, educated.

                              Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment (营养). The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away ”is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy.

But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn’t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly.?They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illnesses caused or made worse by bad eating habits is frightening.
