Born in a fishing village in Japan,F(xiàn)ujiyama,25,recalls a childhood dominated by health concerns.Doctors told his parents that he had a hole in his heart and "they didn't think I had a lot longer to live".But during a later visit to the doctor,his family learned the hole had closed. "Somehow I was cured and I became a normal kid," Fujiyama says. "And I had a second chance."
   During his second year at the University of Mary Washington,he volunteered in Honduras with a campus group and was struck by the extreme poverty he saw — barefoot children collecting cans and sleeping in the streets.Fujiyama realized he could help give other children their own second chance.
   Today,his organization,Students Helping Honduras,brings education and community projects to children and families in need.
   He started by telling his friends about his experience and collecting spare change at his two campus jobs. "When I had my very first meeting,only two people showed up," he says. "I knew I had to keep fighting." He persuaded his younger sister,Cosmo,to join the cause. "She's dynamite," He says. "When she talks in front of a crowd,she can move mountains.Knowing that she was behind it,I knew I could do anything." Since 2006,the siblings' organization has grown to 25 campuses and raised more than $750,000 to fund projects,including the construction of two schools and the establishment of scholarships to help young women attend college.
   Fujiyama says students are deeply committed to the organization.They raise money and then travel to Honduras to help building houses.While Fujiyama spends his summers in Honduras working alongside volunteers,he spends a large portion of the year on the road visiting colleges to raise funds.Cosmo Fujiyama,23,lives in Honduras full time to coordinate (協(xié)調(diào)) the group's building efforts on the ground.
   Students Helping Honduras is working with community members of Siete de Abril to build a new village.Many of the families lost their belongings in Hurricane Mitch in 1998.A lot of them didn't have access to clean water or health care,and they didn't have a school.Fujiyama's group helped build 44 homes in the village named "Sunshine Village".The organization is also raising funds to build a water tower,an eco-friendly sanitation system and a library.

  • 1."An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Similarly,if we drink a little more water every day,we may find that we need to go to the doctor less often.A healthy diet is made up of water and different kinds of foods.We know that healthy foods like fruits,vegetables and fish ,are important as they offer energy and fiber,without giving us much fat and sugar.But why is water important?
       The human body needs water to survive.Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies.However,doctors advise us to drink plenty of water ,much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.
       Some doctors believe that water is important for health in all kinds of ways.They believe that many illnesses and health problems appear as a result of dehydration--a lack of water.Most people are dehydrated (脫水)at least some of time,although they probably don't know it.It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty,we are already in the first stages of dehydration.In fact,we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.
       These doctors think that health problems such as headaches,high blood pressure could be helped if people drink more water.They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are fat.Water contains no calories so it will not make us gain weight.If we drink water ,we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks.Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating.They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are,in fact,thirsty.Doctors suggest,therefore,that we eat less food and drink more water.
       There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water,so we should not stop going to see the doctor completely.
