Which part of the world has the most nearsighted students? Just look around you-it's East Asia. _ school leavers in major East Asian cities are nearsighted, according to the BBC. Experts say books and video games are not to blame. East Asian students, they say, aren't getting enough sunlight.
People become nearsighted because their eyeballs grow out of shape and light entering their eyes cannot focus correctly. The body can produce a chemical called dopamine   to stop eyeballs from changing shape. And guess what scientists have just discovered? Sunlight can help our bodies produce more dopamine, reported AFP.
According to the study, primary school students in Singapore spend only 30 minutes outdoors every day; in Australia, by contrast, kids spend about three hours a day outside. As a result, fewer children in Australia are nearsighted-only 10 percent, compared with 90 percent in Singapore.
"Children in East Asia basically go to school... go home and stay inside. They study and they watch television," Ian Morgan of the Australian National University told AFP.
But being a bookworm or a couch potato does not directly harm the eyes, added Morgan. "As long as they get outside, it doesn't seem to matter how much study they do," he explained. "There are some kids who study hard and get outside and play hard and they are generally fine. The ones who are at major risk are the ones who study hard and don't get outside. As a result of massive   educational pressures and the construction   of a child's day, the amount of time they spend outside in bright light is minimized."
Experts suggest children should stay outside for two to three hours every day. This can include time spent in the playground and walking to and from school.

<question>:
What is the main reason for the large number of nearsighted students in East Asia, according to scientists?

<options>:
A Too much reading or gaming.
B Lack of sunlight.
C Genetic reasons.
D Lack of exercise.

Animals do many different, amazing things to get through the winter. Some of them _ . They travel to other places where the weather is warmer or where they can find food.
Many birds migrate in autumn. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large groups. For example, geese  fly in noisy, "V"-shaped groups. Other kinds of birds fly alone.
Some animals stay active in winter. They must change themselves as the weather changes. Many change their doing or their bodies. For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.
Food is hard to find in winter. Some animals, like mice, collect lots of food in autumn and store it to eat later. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change.
Some animals hibernate for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal's body temperature drops, and its heartbeat and breathing slow down. It uses very little energy. In autumn, these animals get ready for winter by eating much more food than in summer and storing it as body fat. They use this fat to keep them alive while hibernating.
Water makes good protection for many animals. When the weather gets cold, they move to the bottom of lakes and rivers. There, frogs and many fish hide under rocks or fallen leaves. Cold water holds more oxygen than warm water, and frogs can breathe through their skin.
Every type of insect has its own life cycle and that is the way it grows and changes. Different insects spend the winter in different forms of their lives. Some insects also spend the winter without moving. Some insects spend the winter as pupae . Other insects die after laying eggs in autumn. The eggs change into new insects in spring and everything begins all over again.

<question>:
Why do many birds fly in large groups?

A They can easily find food this way.

C They can get warm at night.

On my first holiday in America, I went to a large supermarket to buy breakfast. And although this was an English-speaking country that I knew well through films and TV, I was amazed. Everything came in unfamiliar   packaging  ,with things I'd never heard of, Even things as simple as corn chips were strange, in different colours including black and purple.
Tilse, who works for Nutrition Australia, first realized there was a problem six years ago. After teachers at her children's school quietly shared their opinions about the diets, she knew something about it. "They cared for what many children were  bringing to school for lunch," she said. "Mostly packaged foods, such as chips are not healthy."
Tilse said, "They've managed to escape war areas and get to Australia, only to face the very real risk of running into heart disease. All because they're making wrong choices about food."
"Before I came to Australia, I'd never seen a sandwich," said Joseline Ntunzusenimanima, a 33-year-old mother of seven from Burundi in East Africa. "There were so many fruits I had either never seen or not been able to buy for many years. I was in shock for the first four days after I arrived. I didn't know what to do or where to go because I was just amazed to see plenty of food, peace and safety."

<question>:

A Happy.
B Excited.
C Amazed.
D Comfortable.

On my first holiday in America, I went to a large supermarket to buy breakfast. And although this was an English-speaking country that I knew well through films and TV, I was amazed. Everything came in unfamiliar   packaging  ,with things I'd never heard of, Even things as simple as corn chips were strange, in different colours including black and purple.
Tilse, who works for Nutrition Australia, first realized there was a problem six years ago. After teachers at her children's school quietly shared their opinions about the diets, she knew something about it. "They cared for what many children were  bringing to school for lunch," she said. "Mostly packaged foods, such as chips are not healthy."
Tilse said, "They've managed to escape war areas and get to Australia, only to face the very real risk of running into heart disease. All because they're making wrong choices about food."
"Before I came to Australia, I'd never seen a sandwich," said Joseline Ntunzusenimanima, a 33-year-old mother of seven from Burundi in East Africa. "There were so many fruits I had either never seen or not been able to buy for many years. I was in shock for the first four days after I arrived. I didn't know what to do or where to go because I was just amazed to see plenty of food, peace and safety."

<passage>:
Are you an only-child in your family? Are you feeling alone at home? How are you dealing with it?
Zhang Luwen, 12, feels lucky to have a 4-year-old "brother". "With him, I never feel lonely at home. He goes with me wherever I go," said the girl of Sichuan Province. But it is not easy to be a sister. Zhang has to help her parents bath her "brother" every week. This is because he is hairy -- he is a dog.
As the number of pet owners in China grows more and more, Chinese students have animal friends at home. Experts say that these small animals give these only-children lessons in love, care, teamwork and generosity.
This month, the first study on the influence of pets on the children came out. It is a survey of 402 Beijing primary school students. It shows that animal friends are good for children.
China had more than 90 million only-children by 2006, according to the government. "In families of three, most children feel lonely. They don't have many chances to learn how to love and be responsible for others," said Zhou Xia in the study group. "So having a pet can help with the problem."
However, some students complain that their parents don't allow them to have pets. "They are afraid a pet would stop me studying," said Chen Qi, of Chongqing.
Perhaps he could learn from Qin Yixing, 13, of Beijing. "I don't play with my dog until I have finished my homework. I made the promise to my mom and I must keep it," said the girl.

<question>:
According to the passage, experts think   _  .

<options>:
A it is good for students to have animal friends at home
B only-children families in China will be fewer and fewer
C small animals at home are bad for students
D parents should buy more pet animals for their children

The widespread number of food scandals in  China is making many people pause before they put their chopsticks in their mouths.They are wondering if the food they are eating is clean,healthy and nutritious  or does it contain  something harmful that will cause disease?
Most of the food we eat today is processed food .That means the foods we buy in stores and supermarkets,especially packaged foods,are prepared in factories.Chemicals are added to the foods in these factories to  make them look better,taste better and last longer on the shelf.The chemicals are supposed to be harmless and there are laws that regulate  which chemicals can and cannot be used.Unfortunately,some producers do not obey the laws.

Why did he do it? Why did he break the law and endanger people's  health? The answer is simple:he wanted to make more money.It was a moral failing,and this is at the heart of the food scandals in China.Too many people focus on making money and not on the effects their actions can have on others.

"Depend on yourself" is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others still can help you. But all these people only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. Many of them were very poor when they were young, and had no uncles, aunts, or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They could not depend on them for education. They tried their best to learn something and never gave up till they became well-known. One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I cannot make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves."
Some young men don't try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. If they see their weak points and change their ways, they can be successful. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as  they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on themselves.

There have been many great men in history. Many of them were very poor when they were young, and had no uncles, aunts, or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They could not depend on them for education. They tried their best to learn something and never gave up till they became well-known. One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I cannot make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves."
Some young men don't try their best to make themselves valuable to the human beings. If they see their weak points and change their ways, they can be successful. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as  they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on themselves.

<passage>:
The resignation letter of Gu Shaoqiang, a teacher from Henan, "The world is so big; I want to see it." is very popular in the Internet. Many people say that it spoke the minds of millions of people who feel they have been in a boring and normal life and want to do something different to change it. Whatever the teacher may be able to achieve with her life, it is meaningful for people to make their dream come true.
So, what is your opinion? Should we praise the teacher for resigning and following her dreams?
Yes---All of us have dreams that can't come true right now.
First, Too many people waste their lives by doing things they don't love simply because it is what people expect them to do. They are not happy and they also affect  people around them. The earlier they can break free, the more meaning they can make out of their lives.
Second, It is a waste of people's talents and social resources  if they don't get to do the things they are most talented at. Some people don't want to be white-collar workers all their lives. They should have the freedom to change their lives.
Third, As our country develops so fast, people have greater freedom to change their lives as long as they put in the time and effort. The teacher is a good example.
No---People can't change their lives overnight.
First, "Seeing the world" is not good enough an excuse to leave one's job and life. This kind of attitude could actually be a bad example for young people.
Second, Everyone has a place in society and life. People may not have achieved their wildest or most ambitious dreams, but where they end up is the result of their and society's decisions. Unless they offer to make lots of efforts and sacrifices, people can't change their lives _
Third, The reason why the teacher gave up her job is too unclear. It is too irresponsible.
