25、Dear Ms White,

I used to have a lot of problems and I always tried to fix them. I used to do badly in English. To fix it, I read English newspapers and went to the school English corner to improve it. Now I’m quite good at it. I used to be weak. To fix it, I ate right and joined a sports club. Now I’m strong and healthy. I used to be afraid of speaking in public. To fix it, I took part in all kinds of school activities. Now I’m outgoing and everyone likes making friends with me.  

But now I have a problem that I can’t fix. I have the ugliest nose in the whole world! It’s not only fat but also big! I want to have a nose job (鼻子整形), but how can I get my parents to agree?

Yours,

Ann, 12

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Dear Ann,

It sounds like you’re a really proactive (积极主动的) person, always fixing problems. That’s good, but when it comes to things like your nose, you have to stop. It sounds to me that you’re looking for things that are wrong with your body. That’s very dangerous. Also, I’d like to point out that nobody is perfect. A nose doesn’t reflect who you are, so there’s no need for you to feel bad about yourself at all.

In my opinion, as a student, you should pay more attention to your schoolwork instead of your looks. 

Best wishes,

Ms White

27、Recently, as more students use computers for a long time to have online lessons, more of them are feeling eyestrain (眼睛疲劳).

★Lighting

The light in a room shouldn’t be brighter than the computer screen itself. Maybe in many students’ rooms, however, the lights are far brighter than they should be. Students can block some of this light by wearing baseball caps to protect their eyes.

★The Screen

A special computer screen which has less bright light should be used, because bright light is especially bad for the eyes. Another problem is to avoid the wrong kind of contrast （对比）. Many people think that having light letters on a dark background can cause less eyestrain, it is best to have dark letters on a light background.

★Angle（角度）of looking at the computer screen

Students should sit in front of the computers so that they are looking down at the computer screens. The top of the monitor（ 显示器）should not be so high as the top of a student’s head.

★Breaks and Blinks（眨眼）

If students spend a long time in front of a computer screen, it can cause eyestrain. Students should take a break by looking away from the screen every fifteen or twenty minutes. During that time they should either close their eyes or look at things far away. Students should remember to open and close the eyes often while in front of the screen.
