    Food is very important. Everyone needs to eat well if he or she wants to have a strong body. Our minds also need a kind of food. This kind of food is knowledge. We begin to get knowledge even when we are very young. Small children are interested in everything around them. They learn something when they are watching and listening. When they are getting older, they begin to read story books, science books and anything they like. When they find something new, they love to ask questions and try to find out the answers.

What is the best way to get knowledge? If we learn by ourselves, we will get the most knowledge. If we are always getting answers from others and do not ask why, we will never learn well. When we study in the right way, we will learn more and understand better.
