Many of us don’t pay much attention to the importance of eye care. It is said that if you take care of your body, then you can surely be healthy. That is why our eyes should be given a lot of care. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.
There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, genes（基因）and aging（老化）. Televisions, computers and reading are also the causes of having poor eyesight. If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a break every once in a while.
Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes too. If this happens, the best way is to clean your eyes by using cold water. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just for fashion（时尚）but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays.
Eating healthy foods will do good to your eyesight. Remember that vitamins A, C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight too. If a person exercises regularly（定期地）and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.
All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too. In a word, eye care is very important, no matter how old a person is.

Do you often see ants? If the weather is warm, you may see them under the stones. If it is cold, many ants will be in their nest under the ground.
Most of the ants are worker ants. They have lots of work to do. They look for food and take care of the young ants. Each family of ants has a queen ant. The queen ant controls worker ants. She is important because she lay eggs. These eggs will become new ants.

Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds, it may mean that he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he loves her. When two people are in a conversation, the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what he or she is saying. Lovers will enjoy looking at each other or being looked at for a long time, to show something that words cannot express.
Clearly, eye contact（接触）should be done according to the relationship between two people and the place where you stay.

Doing housework is part of our life. Do middle school students do housework? Recently a survey was made among 100 students. We can get some information from the survey. Only ten percent of the students often do housework. About twenty-five percent students do housework sometimes. And the rest of students seldom or never do housework. This result takes me by surprise. According to the survey, forty percent of students dislike doing housework and eighteen percent of them say that their parents don’t allow them to do housework. I think sharing the housework is helpful for parents. As for students, we can get a lot of practice by sharing the housework. And we can take care of ourselves better when we grow up. So I think that students should often share the housework in our daily life.

It’s important to have positive (积极的) feelings in our daily lives. Compared with some unhappy people those who are always pleased and relaxed are less likely (可能的) to get colds, according to a new study. The researchers from New York University said, “Being happy helps the body prevent (预防) diseases.”
“It seems that positive feelings may reduce (减少) the possibility of illnesses,” said the researcher Sheldon Cohen.
In an earlier study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. In this period, the people told researchers about their happy or sad feelings that day. Two weeks later, all of them were made to catch colds by doctors, and they had to stay alone in a room for six days.
The results showed that each in the study was equal (平等的) to fall ill. But people who were lively and relaxed said they felt happy during the research. Their illnesses were less serious and lasted (持续) for a shorter time.
Cohen believes that when people have positive feelings, their bodies may produce a kind of chemical (化学物质) that helps to fight illnesses. So if you care about your health, please look on the bright side and make yourself happy all the time.

I’m Sandy from Sunshine Middle School. This is a map of it. The building in the middle of the school is the classroom building with forty classrooms. On the left of the classroom building is the science building. There are eight science labs in it. Behind the science building is the dining hall. And the office building is between the dining hall and the playground. The sports hall is in front of the playground. I like doing sports on the playground and in the sports hall. Near the sports hall is the library. I can read a lot of books in it. I like my school.
