When you finish all your schoolwork and sit back in your chair. Suddenly you feel a headache and your eyes are painful. What's going on? Doctors say that many students are spending too much time in front of screens. The following may help you. |
|
|
THE 20-20-20 RULE This gives your eyes a break from long screen time. It suggests looking at something at least 20 feet away for 20 seconds after 20 minutes of work on the screen. You can then continue working pain free. |
►Studies show that people blink (眨眼睛) less often when looking at a screen. Keep your eyes wet by blinking often or using eye drops. |
|
►Sit up straight about an arm's length (长度) away from the screen. Make sure you're looking down at your screen. Stand up and exercise often to avoid neck and shoulder pain. |
|
|
►What about blue light blacking glasses (防蓝光眼镜)? They may look cool, but research shows that blue light isn't the biggest cause of eye tiredness. So ask doctors about computer glasses before putting them on.

He had three other people with him. The first passenger is his younger brother Mark. They come from the same family. The second passenger is an 82-year-old woman called Wally Funk. She becomes the oldest person to go into space. She was one of 13 female pilots who passed the same tests in the 1960s. But she never went to space because only men were allowed at that time. Finally, a teenager called Oliver Daemen also joins the trip. He becomes the youngest person to go into space. Over the past six years, Jeff Bezos' company, had tried 15 successful tests without people , and engineers decided that the New Shepard(新谢泼德号飞船) was finally ready to carry passengers.
