Life is full of special moments that deserve to be preserved in photos. If you’re going to the beach, a waterproof camera will help you do that. A waterproof camera is an ideal tool for capturing diving memories and moments of deep sea-fishing trips. Besides, it works equally well for water park visits.
As with any camera, you can choose a waterproof camera with a viewing screen that allows you to see the photos you are lining up or have just taken.
It is a good idea to read reviews of the camera carefully and thoroughly before buying a water-resistant camera. Reviews can give people an idea of the kind of settings where the camera can be used and how well the camera performs.
If you’re using a waterproof camera underwater, try to get as close to your subject as possible. You’d better take it with you all the time.
| A．The size and weight of your waterproof camera matter. |
| B．Some waterproof cameras have a voice control feature. |
| C．Here is some advice on how to choose and use such cameras. |
| D．It is because water will absorb warm colors like orange and red. |
| E．You also need to take special note of any statement of dissatisfaction. |
| F．Meanwhile, do not leave a waterproof camera in direct sunlight for long. |
| G．The screen should be clear enough to see underwater or in direct sunlight. |

【推荐1】Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.
AVOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost £169.15 at Booking.com. A week later, the same room cost £l18.15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid-or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.
STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was £95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was £75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just £62.95.
GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around £1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or £5 per day).

【推荐2】We’re living in modern times and it seems like we never have enough time. We all get the same amount in a day, a week, and a year. It just depends on how we use it. Rather than all getting the same amount of time to spend,
Help others
This might seem strange, but people who have more time often give it away through volunteering and helping others. A study that compared the opportunities to waste time, spend time on oneself, or spend a gift of time found that giving time selflessly actually increased people’s perception of time.
When we do the same things every day, our brains tend to take shortcuts, and our efforts don’t require as much conscious thought. This makes time seem to go more quickly. In contrast, when we do things in new or unexpected ways, our brains engage more consciously. We experience time as slowing down because we’re more present and putting more work into the thinking that goes into the task. We can apply this research by selecting when we choose to do things in new ways versus our typical way.
Take control
| A．Do things in new ways |
| B．Seek the experience of awe |

【推荐1】On the day Apple debuted the often-delayed white-colored iPhone 4, the company’s marketing department gave a nod to the product’s troubled history.
“Finally.” read the big headline Thursday above a picture of the white phone on the homepage of Apple.com.
The white model was supposed to ship alongside the black one at the iPhone 4’s launch (推出) last June. But design and manufacturing complications delayed the process by 10 months, catching Apple off guard, executives say.
As CNN reported last month, earlier test models of the white iPhone 4 produced unclear photos, especially when the flash(闪光灯) was used. Its whiteness confused the proximity sensor (距离传感器) , which detects when the phone is held next to someone’s head and turns off the touch screen to save battery life.
These problems weren’t present in older iPhones that came in white because they didn’t have flash photography; the proximity sensor was unaffected because the front side of previous models was black.
“We thought we were there a year ago, or less than that, when we launched the iPhone 4, and we weren’t,” Philip Schiller, Apple’s chief marketing executive, said in an interview. “It’s not as simple as making something white. There’s a lot more that goes into both the material science of it —how it holds up over time…but also in how it all works with the sensors. ”
Ticonderoga Securities analyst Brian White predicts that the white model could help drive sales of Apple’s phones. He says Apple could sell 1 million to 1.5 million every three months until the next iPhone model is unveiled, which is expected to be this fall.
Forty-five people were lined up at Apple’s flagship New York store Thursday morning to buy white iPhones, according to a CNN Money report.

【推荐3】The sun rises and sets at peak travel periods, during the early morning and afternoon rush hours and many drivers find themselves temporarily blinded while driving directly into the glare of the sun, which accounts for countless accidents every year.
Protecting your eyes is serious business. However, with all the fancy fashion frames out there it can be easy to ignore what really matters—the lenses (镜片). So we did our research and looked to the very best in optic (光学的) technology. Now NASA's Jet Protection Laboratory has brought forward ground-breaking technology to help protect human eyesight from the harmful effects of solar radiation light. This superior lens technology was first discovered when NASA scientists look to nature for a means to superior eye protection—specially, by studying the eyes of eagles, known for their extreme sharp visual ability. This discovery resulted in what is now known as Eagle Eyes.
Eagle Eyes features the most advanced eye protection technology ever created. The TriLenium Lens Technology can block 99.99% UVA and UVB-plus the added benefit of blue-light eye protection. Eagle Eyes is the only optic technology that has earned official recognition for the Space Certification Program for this remarkable technology.
