I once knew a man who was rich in his love for birds,and in their love for him. He lived in a grove full of all kinds of trees. He had no wife or children in his home. He was an old man with blue and kind eyes,and a voice that the birds loved.

While he was at work in the grove,the birds came close to pick up the worms (螺虫) in the fresh earth he dug up. At first,they kept their distance from him,but they soon found he was a kind man,and would not hurt them,but liked to have them near him.

They knew this by his kind eyes and voice,which tell what is in the heart. So,day by day their faith in his love grew in them.

All the birds of the grove were soon his best friends. They were on the watch for him,and would fly down from the green tree tops to greet him with their chirp (机机喳喳叫) .

When he had no work to do,he took bread with him,and dropped the pieces on the ground. Down they would dart (俯冲) on his head and feet to catch them as they fell from his hand.

He showed me how they loved him. He put a piece of bread in his mouth,with one end of it out of his lips. Down they came like bees at a flower,and flew off with it piece by piece.

When they thought he slept too long in the morning,they would fly in and

They went with him to church,and while he sang his hymns in it,they sat in the trees,and sang their praises.

 So the love and trust of birds were a joy to the old man all his life long.

If you need glasses to read this,you are a-mong most of Chinese students. About four-fifths of high school students in China have poor eyesight (视力) . And now more and more children in primary school need glasses,too.

Two main reasons can cause poor eyesight: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours,sometimes in poorly lighted rooms,causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. They have less time to enjoy the sun.

The sun,it turns out,is important in developing good eyesight. According to a study by Australian National University,Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school,but once they enter primary school,Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside,while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about forty percent of Chinese primary school students need glasses,only three percent of Australian children do.

And poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long term influence. As you get older,your eyesight can worsen.

With all that in mind,don't you think it's time to give your eyes a break?

() 1. How many high school students have poor eyesight in Ghina according to the reading?
