【題目】短文改錯(cuò)

It is no doubt that health is the most important thing in our life. As a Chinese proverb go, "Health is blessing". Should we be always ill in bed, how can we enjoy life?

To keep healthy, we must develop a healthy way of life. First of all, we should keep on doing sports on a regularly basis, because it can strengthen both our body and mind, refresh ourselves and making us work more efficiently. Secondly, we must keep balanced diet to provide our body with various nutrition we need, but we should refuse junk food. Remember, it is through the mouth where diseases enter into our body. Thirdly, a good sleep is also vital to our health. Stay up too late at night often results in poor health. As middle school students, we need better sleep to do better in our lessons.

Most people usually traveled by ship and train which are driven by steam engine. It played an important part in many kinds of vehicles several scores of years ago. Who invented steam engine and what units could be used to measure the power of engine?

The word "horse-power" was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt from a worker’s family made the world first widely used steam engine. At first, he couldn’t tell people how powerful it was, because there were no units at that time. Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He named that unit one horse-power. In this way he could measure the work of his steam engine.

He discovered that a horse could lift a 3,300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute. Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten horse-power engine.
