There is no denying that physical well-being is of vital importance to the development of college students. However, many students, as well as educators and parents, fail to realize the truth. It can be proved by the evidence that increasing number of students are faced with the problems of near-sightedness and obesity, and that the results of 800-meter running test for girls and 1000-meter test for boys in a university decreased by 10.3% and 10.9% respectively compared with those in 2000. Various reasons accounts for the decline in students' physical condition. First and foremost, it's partly due to the fact that some college students are unaware of the significance of physical training and exercise. They believe that they are still young and there is no need to worry about their health condition. In addition, some students are preoccupied with study or computer games, which leave them little time for development of their constitution. What's more, related authorities don't make effective instruction and regulations to encourage students to build up their bodies. All in all, it is high time for us to pay due attention to students' physical well-being. For one thing, it is the students themselves that can make a difference, which means active participation in doing more exercise. For another, government should take measures to help students cultivate healthy living styles.
