Eyesight plays avery important role in our daily life. Every waking moment, the eyes are working to see the world around us. Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight, but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes. Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight：
•Schedule yearly exams.__ 1.___Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check. The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment, including eyeglasses.
•Protect against UV rays(紫外线)．Longterm stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes. No matter what the season is, it's extremely important to wear sunglasses.__ 2.__
•Give your eyes a break. Twothirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products.__ 3.__ Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20second break and look at something 20 feet away.
•___4.__ As part of a healthy diet, eat more fruits and vegetables each day. Vitamins(维生素) C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.
•Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses(隐形眼镜)．Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight. While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses, many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk.__ 5.___ Otherwise, you may have problems such as red eyes, pain in the eyes, or a more serious condition.
A．Eat your greens.
B．Eye care should begin early in life.
C．They can properly protect your eyes.
D．Stay in good shape by taking more Vitamins.
E．Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight.
F．Always follow the doctor's advice for appropriate wear.

Grownups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.

4.What is the author's opinion on cramming?
A．It leads to failure in college exams.
B．It's helpful only in a limited way.
C．It's possible to result in poor memory.
D．It increases students' learning interest.
When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn't a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked.“Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn't you ever wonder what you're really like? Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That's just for you，” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don't shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a better piece of advice.
1.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter's complaint?
A．He told her not to pay any attention to what her“enemy”had said.
B．He criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.
C．He told her to write down all that her“enemy”had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.
D．He refused to take the list and have a look at it.
2.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?
A．Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.
B．She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.
C．I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.
D．Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.
3.Why did her father listen to her quietly?
A．Because he believed that what her daughter's“enemy”said was mostly true.
B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter's shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while.
C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.
D．Because he wasn't quite sure which girl was telling the truth.
4.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?
A．Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend
B．The Best Advice I've Ever Had
C．My Father
D．My Childhood
