Are you nearsighted(近視)? Do you wear glasses? Many of you may say "yes". In fact, according to a report from the World Health Organization, China has the biggest population of nearsighted young people. More than 70%of middle school students in China are nearsighted.

In August, a plan to solve this problem was introduced. It aims to cut down the rate(率)of nearsightedness for middle school students to less than 60% by 2030. Schools across the country are taking action to meet this goal.

Luoyang Experimental School in Henan started with its desks. It has made desks with a board above the desktop. The board stops students from lowering their heads too close to their desktops. More than 400 students have used them so far. More students will use them soon. Similarly, the High School Affiliated to Remain University Chaoyang Branch School is now providing desks and chairs according to students' heights. Studies have shown that proper desk height can stop nearsightedness.

Spending more time outside can also reduce nearsightedness. Chengdu No. 7 High School makes sure that its students play outside for at least 80 minutes every day. "We have a PE class and a 20-minute break in the morning and afternoon to do exercises.”said Sun Zihan,l4.

Staring(凝視)at screens can also hurt our eyes. Beijing 101 Middle School has a solution to this problem. In its classrooms, there are special boxes for storing students' cell phones. "We have to hand in our cell phones every morning and get them back after school," said Huang Jiameng,15.

Sally told Kate that one of their ancestors(祖先), their great-great-uncle, was a swimming champion(冠軍)who had won an Olympic medal(獎牌).

“You have saved my horse,” Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall have a prize.” Peter nervously ran his fingers through his brown hair. The frightened horse had run past him as he worked in the field that morning. He would have helped it whether it belonged to the queen or not. But he had to admit that getting a prize was nice. Two of the queen’s pages ( 侍從 ) appeared. One carried a small pillow with a mirror sitting on top. Red jewels shining on the top of the mirror’s silver frame ( 鏡框 ) . The other page carried a wooden cage with a clucking (咯咯叫)chicken inside it.

“Only one prize can be yours,” The queen said. “Choose wisely.” “That’s easy,” Peter said. “I’ll take the chicken.” Some of the people in the court laughed. It was clear that they thought he had made a foolish choice.

“And why did you choose the chicken?” the queen asked. “Well, I don't know much about jewels and things,” Peter answered. “But I do know about chickens. The chicken will provide eggs family for a long while.”

Queen Olivia smiled. “Then you did make a wise choice,” she said. “That mirror may look beautiful. But the jewels you see are only colored glass, and the frame is painted silver. The chicken is much more valuable.” Peter took the chicken. Then he said. “Thank you.”

“You are a smart child,” the queen said. “I could use a smart boy to help take care of my horses. Would you like a job?” Peter smiled. “Thank you!” he said. A job for the queen paid well. Now his family would eat well for the rest of their lives——all because he had chosen a chicken!
