26、   As the novel coronavirus pneumonia（新型冠状病毒肺炎） makes students to stay at home, they have to learn online and smart phones（智能手机） make online learning become possible and easy. But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes?

According to a study, half of the British people own smart phones and they spend an average （平均） of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number of people in the UK who suffer from shortsightedness（近视） since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.

Staring at（盯着看） smart phones for a long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink （自动眨眼） a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort（不适） in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smart phones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils（瞳孔） become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma（青光眼）.

If you have to use your smart phone to learn online, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimetres away from your eyes when using it. Take a rest every hour and try the following: look at something at least five metres away from you and then focus on（专注于） the tip（ 尖端） of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.

【1】What makes the students’ online learning become possible and easy?

27、Lidong came on November 8 this year. It is the Chinese word for one of the 24 solar terms (节气). It means the beginning of winter.

As the weather gets colder and there is less sunlight, people are more likely to get sick. Adults in the US usually have two to four colds each year. Young children suffer from six to eight colds per year, especially in winter months, according to the American Lung Association. One of the best ways to keep healthy during winter is to stay warm.

There are many ways to stay warm. A living room should be around 18-21 C, and you can also use a hot water bottle or at least 16 C. blanket to keep warm while in bed. Getting plenty of exercise is always a good idea. Take a walk on a sunny afternoon, do a long distance run or skip rope. These things keep your blood moving and your metabolism (新陈代谢) fired up. Food gives us energy and helps to warm us from the inside. High-protein (高蛋白的) foods, like fish and meat, provide a lot of energy. Add some things to your winter dishes, such as ginger, pepper and garlic. These things can make you warm. A winter coat warms you up from the outside. Add several layers of thin clothing, for example, a shirt and a thin sweater, to stay even warmer. Clothes made from wool are usually very warm.

How to make winter days colorful? Is it too cold to play outside? Don’t worry. Here are some tips for having fun at home. Give it a try!

■ Enjoy a movie with your parents. There are a lot of choices, such as Spy Kids. You can also talk about the movie with your parents after it’s over.

■ Cook a meal with your parents. You can cook some simple dishes, such as scrambled eggs with tomato. You may need your mother’s help for the first time.

■ Clean your bedroom. You need to sweep the floor, tidy your desk and make your bed. By doing this, you really help your mother a lot.

■ Read your favorite book. Reading is not only helpful for your writing ability, but can also help to build your character.
