Use your own ideas. Here is an example.

Sleep
We all know that sleeping well is good for us, but sometimes it can be
difficult. Here are some suggestions to help you get a better night's sleep:
1. Try to sleep at regular times. If you have a sleep routine, it really helps.
2. Find a quiet place and take a 15 minute nap if you feel tired during the
day.
3. When you go to bed, make sure your room is quiet, cool, and dark. It's
the best way to get a good night's sleep.
Remember that everyone has sleep problems at some time. Don't get
stressed if you can't sleep for one or two nights. But if you don't sleep well
for a long time, go and see your doctor.

2 Sobre ti Actividad C
Usa tus propias ideas. Aquí hay un ejemplo.

El fin de semana pasado, fui a un concierto con algunos de mis

amigos. Llevó un par de horas conducir hasta el concierto. Estaba
bastante lejos. Mientras esperábamos en la fila para entrar, empezamos
a hablar con algunas personas. Pensé que una de las chicas parecía
familiar. Pero no estaba seguro. Pero cuando dijo que era del mismo
pueblo, le pregunté: "¿A qué escuela asistes?" Era la misma escuela que
mi hermano, y me di cuenta de que ella era una de las amigas de mi
hermano. ¡No lo podía creer! Es increíble que puedas conocer a alguien
en una multitud de 15,000 personas así. ¡Es un mundo pequeño!

2 About you Activity C
Use your own ideas. Here is an example.
Last weekend, I went to a concert with some of my friends. It took a
couple of hours to drive to the concert. It was pretty far. While we were
waiting in line to get in, we started talking to some people. I thought one
of the girls looked familiar. But I wasn’t sure. But when she said she was
from the same town, I asked her “Which school do you go to?” It was the
same school as my brother, and I realized she was one of my brother’s
friends. I couldn’t believe it! It’s amazing that you can meet someone in a
crowd of 15,000 people like that. It’s a small world!
