It is said that the eyes are the windows of our soul. Beautiful and bright eyes not only show a good health but also make you look very attractive. However, to have healthy eyes you have to look after them properly. Your eyes need everyday attention. There are different ways to keep your eyes healthy.
Pay more attention to your diet. First, eat food that is good for your eyes. They are fresh fruits and vegetables as fish, eggs and milk. Besides, you should take a regular amount of vitamins A and B2.
A regular sleep is a must. It relaxes the eye muscles(肌肉) and gives them the rest required. Sleep not only helps the body to repair its tired tissues(组织). Usually, you must sleep for at least seven to eight hours every day. Loss of sleep can give you dark circles under the eyes.
We use our eyes in many unnoticeable and wrong ways. For example, if a small thing goes into our eyes we start rubbing(揉) it, which is wrong. Rubbing can cause damage（破坏） to your eyes. Don’t read or write in poor or bright sunlight. Always use sunglasses can cause eye tiredness. Light should not shine directly in your eyes. Too much reading, writing, watching TV or working on the computer can also cause eye tiredness.
Remember to always take care of God’s most beautiful gift to you. Your life will be very colorless without your eyes.

Happiness is a feeling that lights up your eyes, makes your steps light and makes you want to sing for no reason. Everyone wants to be happy. But sometimes, a guest comes in without invitation. It’s unhappiness. Don’t let it get you down. Send it away!
When you are happy, the world feels like a better place. A good mood (心情) always gives you hope, which makes trouble and problems easier to handle.
No matter how happy you are, it’s natural to feel angry, sad or upset once in a while. Life is full of ups and downs. So it’s good to know some of the factors that influence happiness.
One of the biggest factors is social relationships. Talking and sharing is a good way to relax and build confidence. Knowing someone is there for you will make you braver and more outgoing.
Another factor is work or school. If you enjoy school, even if you have lots of homework or extra classes, you will still feel that your school life is meaningful and happy. But if you hate school, your negative attitude may cause you to feel bored and upset that you have to do so much work.
A third factor is your attitude towards life. How do you feel if you fail in an exam? Maybe you think it’s unfair because you always study hard and should have got a good mark. You can’t stop blaming (责备) yourself. Or, maybe you accept it. You go through the paper carefully, find out why you made stupid mistakes, and tell yourself, “Take it easy! I’ll do better next time!” Your attitude makes a big difference.
Do you smile a lot or wear a long face most of the time?
