A recent national survey has revealed that roughly three out of four high school students wear glasses, fuelling concerns about eyesight problems among China’ s youth. The figures disturb the school authorities, who have decided to tackle this problem head-on. No. 9 High School is one of those that have gone to great lengths to protect students’ eyes, coming up with many effective solutions.
最近的一项全国性调查显示，大约四分之三的高中生戴眼镜，这引发了人们对中国青少年视力问题的担忧。这些数字让学校当局感到不安，他们决定正面解决这个问题。第九中学是那些竭尽全力保护学生眼睛的学校之一，想出了许多有效的解决方案。
Reading
It is important for eyes to get regular breaks throughout the day, so students at No. 9 High School are advised to stop for a few minutes in the middle of their study and look at distant objects. Instead of studying for long hours, students are actively encouraged to go outdoors and enjoy themselves in the sun.
让眼睛在一天中有规律地休息是很重要的，所以九中的学生们被建议在学习过程中停下来几分钟，看看远处的物体。学生们被积极鼓励到户外去享受阳光，而不是长时间学习。
School facilities have also been improved to provide students with an eye-friendly environment. The school has adjusted all the lights to make sure the classrooms are well lit. In the computer room, computers are placed at least 50 centimetres away from students. In the library, new chairs can be adjusted to ensure that students read in the best sitting position.
学校设施也得到改善，为学生提供一个对眼睛友好的环境。学校已经调整了所有的灯光，以确保教室光线充足。在电脑室，电脑被放置在离学生至少50厘米的地方。在图书馆，新椅子可以调整，以确保学生在最佳坐姿阅读。
The school has also taken action to make everyone aware of the ways to improve eye health. They have sent out information advising all parents on how to protect their children’s eyes. At the same time, students have been trained to recognize signs of eyesight problems themselves.
学校还采取行动，让每个人都意识到改善眼睛健康的方法。他们已经发出信息，建议所有家长如何保护孩子的眼睛。与此同时，学生们也接受了识别视力问题迹象的培训。
All of these measures are helping reduce eyesight problems. No. 9 High School is leading the way for other schools with its impressive forward thinking on eye health.
所有这些措施都有助于减少视力问题。第九中学以其令人印象深刻的眼睛健康前瞻性思维引领着其他学校。

Saving Our Eyesight
Students become short-sighted increasingly at a younger age. It is said that roughly three out of four students have the problems of short-sightedness. As we know, various factors contribute to this problem, including the bad habits of using eyes, reading in wrong positions and taking little exercise.
Now something must be done to protect our eyes. First of all , we’d better sit straight while reading. Besides, it's helpful to relax our eyes by seeing some green trees or doing eye exercises. Last but not least, the situation can be improved if we keep a balanced diet and take more outdoor exercises every day.
As a saying goes, eyes are the window to the soul. Thus, let's take care of our eyes !
Thank you!
