How to Improve Eyesight Naturally

Eyes are important for everybody. You must take care and try everything in hand to keep them in good condition. Here are some tips to improve your eyesight naturally.

1. Strain is known to be a factor in many health conditions and eye strain is no exception. Try meditation, yoga or other methods of stress relief to improve your vision and overall health.

Try palming.

Sit upright in a comfortable chair. 2. Cup your hands so that there is no pressure on your eyes. Let your fingers rest across your forehead. There should be no light entering your eyes. Palming should be done for a period of 5 to 10 minutes to start. Palming should be relaxing. It may help to do palming in a darkened room.

Avoid sugar as much as possible.

3. It will unpleasantly affect your eyesight, which affects the eyes by producing a larger amount of insulin (胰島素) in the blood. Therefore you shouldn't be having much fruit juice or something that contains a lot of sugar.

Exercise your eyes.

The only exercise most eyes get is daily rubbing when we're tired or suffering from eye strain. But eye exercise is actually good for your eyes and can improve your vision. 4. Blink as fast as you can for a few seconds, then close your eyes tightly, open and repeat. Do this exercise 3 to 4 times daily.

Eat healthy foods.

You probably hear the statement all the time that eating the right foods is necessary for good health. 5.Foods that are high in fiber, vitamin C, D and beta?carotene as well as other vitamins and minerals can help improve your vision.

閱讀理解。

You signed up for soccer, and played every game of the season. Sure, you're not the best player on the team, but most days you gave it your all. Do you deserve a trophy (獎杯)?

If the decision is up to Carol Dweck, the answer would likely be no. She's a psychology professor at Stanford University, California. She says a player doesn't have to be the best to get a trophy. But those who receive an award should have to work for it. She suggests trophies go to the most improved player, or the one who contributed most to the team spirit, as well as to those who play the best.

“The trophy has to stand for something,” Dweck told TFK. “If we give a trophy to everyone, then the award has no value.” Dweck argues that giving kids trophies for particular reasons, such as improving in a sport, teaches kids that adults value hard work and trying our best.

Others say that there's no harm in giving awards to all kids who play a sport, regardless of how they played or whether or not they improved.

“I think we should encourage kids' participation in sports,” says Kenneth Barish, a psychology professor at Weill Cornell Medical College, in New York City. “A trophy is one way to encourage kids' efforts.”

Barish argues that when we single_out only the best or even the most improved players with a trophy, we are teaching kids the wrong lesson. We are sending the message that winning is everything. “Winning is only part of the equation (等式),” Barish told TFK. “Playing sports also teaches kids about teamwork and the importance of exercise.”

There will be plenty of opportunities for kids to learn about competition as they get older, says Barish. They'll soon realize that only one soccer team wins the World Cup and only one football team wins the Super Bowl. For now, he thinks there's nothing wrong with letting all kids who play a sport feel like winners. That means trophies for everyone.

1.According to Carol Dweck, which player should receive a trophy?

A.Tony, the most attractive player of the soccer team.

B.David, a soccer player who is both clever and funny.

C.Peter, who is ready to help his partners to score goals.

D.Jim, a soccer player who tries his best to win the game.

2.Which of the following statements would Kenneth Barish agree with?

A.There is no sense in giving a trophy to everyone.

B.Kids fond of playing sports should be rewarded.

C.Kids should be given trophies for trying their best.

D.It is necessary to encourage kids' participation in sports.

3.The underlined phrase “single out” in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”.

A.honour B.choose

C.value D.stress

4.Which shows the correct structure of the text?

閱讀理解。

Even if trees cannot walk, they are still on the move.

In parts of the Arctic, entire forests are moving northward. Across the Arctic, temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else in the world. As that happens, the tree line that marks where forests stop and the treeless tundra (凍原) starts has been shifting northward. Trees growing along the tree line must protect themselves from the cold wind. To do this,_plants tend to grow horizontal (水平的) branches low to the ground. The energy it takes for trees to grow this way means they don't have enough energy to make seeds.

But as Earth's climate has been warming, trees no longer have to just grow horizontally. Many can instead grow up toward the sky. This takes less energy. And with all that leftover energy, these trees have started producing more seeds. This happens especially in places where white spruce (白云杉) grows.

White spruce, which is a North American tree, is quite able to produce a lot of seeds, which can move long distances in the wind. When wind?blown seeds end up on the tundra beyond the tree line, they eventually can sprout(發(fā)芽) new trees. This explains how a forest can move. Of course, the process would work only if the tundra were warm enough. But in recent years, the whole planet has been warming.

New trees will provide shelters for some snow. Keeping the sun's rays from making the white surface disappear. Instead, the trees absorb the sun's heat. This warms the surrounding air. The extra warmth encourages even more trees to produce seeds. That further boosts a forest's ability to expand. In addition, more trees will trap more snow, preventing much of it from being blown away. Snow can trap heat in the soil below, which encourages trees to grow. The recent rise of temperatures has helped more trees grow past the tree line. People worry about impacts on the animals that depend on frozen conditions for food and shelter.

1.What is the main cause of the trees in the Arctic moving northward?

A.The shrinking of northern tundra.

B.The rising temperature.

C.The fierce and cold wind.

D.The abundant resources in the north.

2.What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.To produce more seeds.

B.To move northward.

C.To respond to the climate change.

D.To protect themselves from the cold wind.

3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.New trees can trap the snow, which may make the soil colder.

B.The trapped snow prevents new trees from producing more seeds.

C.New trees can make the surrounding air warmer.

D.New trees can bring more food and shelter to local animals.

4.The passage is most probably taken from ________.

A.a(chǎn) science report B.a(chǎn) health report

C.a(chǎn) fashion magazine D.a(chǎn) children's magazine
