5.Sports shoes that work out whether their owner has done enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.
The shoes-named Square Eyes-contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day.A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver connected to a television,and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves,based on the day's efforts.
The design was inspired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers,says Gillian Swan,who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University to London,UK."We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out,"she says."And I wanted to tackle that with my design."
Once a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise,the television automatically switches off.And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps.
Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of both.Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television.So,every 100steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals precisely one minute of TV time.
Existing pedometers(计步器)normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement.Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking.But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat."It is possible,but it would be a lot of effort,"she says."That was one of my main design considerations."

33.Which of the following is true of Square Eyes shoes?C
A.They contain information of the receiver.
B.They have raised the hot issue of overweight.
C.They regulate a child's evening TV viewing time.
D.They determine a child's daily pocket money.
34.What is stressed by health experts in their suggestion?D
A.The way of changing steps into TV watching time.
B.The exact number of steps to be taken.
C.The precise number of hours spent on TV.
D.The proper amount of daily exercise and TV time.
35.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?B
A.Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight
B.Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time
C.Smart Shoes Guarantee More Exercise
D.Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise.

Your eyes are very important and it is necessary to take care of them.You should give them regular breaks from staring at the computer screen.Every fifteen minutes,rest your eye muscles by looking away from the screen at something far away.Make sure that the top of your monitor is at eye level and that your monitor is about an arm's length away from you.
Take a break
