It is important for everyone to keep good eyesight. But do you know how to protect your eyesight? First, don't keep your eyes working for a long time. You'd better have a rest by looking into the distance after you have studied an hour or so. Second, pay attention to the following: don't read in the sun or in poor light; don't read in bed or on a moving bus. And when you read, you should keep the book away from your eyes for about a foot. Third, do eye exercises every day. It will also help you keep good eyesight. 听第二篇短文，回答第16—20小题 Dear Mr Ma,

Growing up with good books

My dear friends,

Reading is very important. We can get knowledge through reading. It can not only open our minds, but also make us cleverer and happier. Our study can be improved if we read more good books. The more we read, the more we will learn.

However, some students spend much time in listening to music, watching TV or going online to play games. It takes much of their spare time. So I would like to suggest that everyone should read more books, especially classical good books. And we can spread /introduce our Chinese traditional culture to the world.

Let's start reading now. And let it become a part of our life!
