Text “Healthy Henry”
Henry works in an office in the town. He wants to live to a hundred, so health is very important to him. He gets up at five o’clock in the morning and does exercises for 30 minutes. For breakfast he eats salad and a raw egg with garlic and chilly pepper. It tastes disgusting but Henry thinks it’s good for him. Then he runs for an hour in the park even if the weather is bad.
He never goes to work by train or by bus and he thinks that cars are very dangerous.
At the office Henry washes his hands ten times a day. His lunch is fifteen sunflower seeds and one onion. He is sure that the lunch which the firm gives isn’t good for him.
After work Henry hurries home to water the plants. He has tens of plants because they clean the air. In the evening he never watches television because it’s bad for his eyes. On Monday he goes to a yoga class and on Thursday he attends a vegetarian cooking class. Henry rarely goes to the cinema or to the theatre – there are too many germs there.
In summer he sleeps in a tent in the garden. At the weekend he goes camping in the country. But he never sits in the sun.
On the first day of every month Henry goes to the doctor’s just to make sure that he isn’t ill. After all, he doesn’t want to find himself in hospital.
