    Are you short-sighted? If you are, your parents might have tried to do something to fix it, such as having you get an eye massage(按摩), take medicine or even get surgery(手术). People who offer these services or products often say that they can reduce or even cure short sight.

However, you will no longer see advertisements like this before long. The government has issued a notice to ban(禁止) businesses from using words like “recovery" or "short sight cure" in their advertisements.

The notice says that short sight cannot be completely cured with current medical technology. Therefore, these advertisements could mislead children and their parents.

Young people can prevent and control short sight by spending more time outside and less time in front of books or computers. People who have sight problems should first go to a hospital and let a doctor decide what to do.

More than 450 million Chinese have suffered from short sight since June 2018. Short sight rates are around 30 percent for primary school students, 60 percent for junior high school students and 80 percent for senior high school students. This is likely because students spend a lot of time reading books and using electronic devices.

To reduce short sight among young people, the government made a new plan last August. The plan is designed to limit the amount of time children spend playing video games, as well as limit the production of new video games.

26．Some people say that they can cure short sight to _________.

A．show off their high-leveled skills   B．sell more products and services

C．share their medical technology       D．prove that eye massages are useful

27．Advertisements with the word "__________“ will be banned by the government.

A．recovery         B．eyesight         C．short sight      D．surgery

28．If you have a sight problem, you should ___________ first.

A．get surgery                          B．get an eye massage

C．take some medicine                   D．ask a doctor for advice

29．According to this passage, which group has the highest short sight rate?

A．Primary school students.             B．Junior high school students,

C．Senior high school students.         D．College students.

30．From the last two paragraphs, we can know that _________.

A．students should be stopped from using mobile phones

B．students in lower grades are more likely to get short sight

C．production of new video games will be limited

D．a law was made to protect the eyesight of people

It is a cold and dry winter morning. When you wake up, you suddenly feel that your    1    hurts. You begin to sneeze and later you may cough. You must have a cold! Wait a second. Could it just be a    2   cold or the flu that’s been going around?

A cold gives you a runny nose and cough. But it’s usually easy to    3     . Some take medicine such as aspirin（阿司匹林）   4   others try home treatments like herbal tea or chicken soup. Usually you will feel better after a week.

However, good health   8    may also help to prevent a cold or flu. Washing your hands often helps protect you from viruses. Getting regular exercise and eating healthy food are also important. All these can help you strengthen your immune system（免疫系统）.

An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came, flying and buzzing near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again and the elephant waved it away once more.

This happened several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why can’t you just stay in one place?”

The fly answered, “I am interested in whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses, and everything that happens around me, pull me here and there and I cannot resist ( 抵抗 ) them. What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still? ”

The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule me. I am in control of myself — my senses do not tell me what to do. This helps me stay focused on whatever I do, and so, keep my mind calm and still. Now that I am eating, I am completely enjoying eating. In this way, I can just focus on enjoying my food.”

After hearing these words, the fly’s eyes opened wide and a smile appeared on his face. He looked at the elephant and said, “I understand! I will always be restless if I let my senses control me. On the other hand, if I try to use some self-control, my mind will become calm and I’ll be able to stay still.”

It is said that the mind is restless and pays attention to whatever is in front of it. But if you can control what you pay attention to, you can control your mind.

When we say “we threw something out,” what do we really mean? After all, our waste doesn’t just disappear even if it is taken a 1 ． . So why not recycle it?

Have you ever used newspapers when you clean the windows? If you haven’t, please try! I didn’t believe it when I 2 ． （听到） and read that. I thought that they would certainly leave ink （墨汁） or bits of paper behind. Actually, I was so wrong. I have had clearer windows than before s 3 ． I tried it.

When we mention cleaning products, we have to talk about paper towels （手巾） .I used 4 ． think more paper towels meant a cleaner home. I loved the idea of cleaning with the fresh white paper and then throwing 5 ． out. But now I know that I have to s 6 ． using paper towels, because paper towels are a huge waste problem. Cutting out paper towels would save 7 ． （树） , water, air and our money.

Recently, my family and I have started collecting all old 8 ． （衣服） , and then cut them into pieces. Getting one piece to do some cleaning has become our n 9 ． habit. I thought that it would be such 10 ． uneasy thing to break a 30-year-old habit. Whatever, it really is the most meaningful thing that I have done during a long time.
