As many as a quarter of all cases of short-sightedness are caused by too great an exposure to sunlight in the first weeks of life, say eye experts. They a
27、re advising all parents to put sunglasses on their babies during the first weeks. Scientists had already established that over-exposure to sunlight caused shortsightedness in animals. Researchers who compared the months in which babies were born with whether they needed glasses later on say the prin
28、ciple also applies to humans. A study of almost 300,000 young adults-the largest of its kind-showed that those born in June and July had a 25 per cent greater chance of becoming severely short-sighted than those born in December or January. Research leader Professor Michael Belkin, of Tel Aviv Unive
29、rsity, said it was because prolonged illumination(光照) causes the eyeball to lengthen-causing short-sightedness.

In young babies not enough melatonin is released as protection, meaning they are more vulnerable to sunburn and changes to eyeball shape. Sight expert Professor Daniel OLeary, of Anglia Ruskin University in
31、 Cambridge, said “At the moment we dont know the precise cause of why light exposure affects sight, but the evidence seems to prove that it is one of the reasons for people becoming shortsighted.”60.

34、l(友好) in a community. A man with good manners doesnt hurt others feelings, and therefore hes on good terms with everyone .In this way he helped to keep peace in society.But a man with bad manners has no respect for others He uses words carelessly and behaves rudely towards others and causes a lot of
35、 unpleasantness. In the end , he himself will suffer most. Everyone will avoid him and he will be forced to live a lonely life. To live well in society , money alone is not enough. We should also have good manners, for its human nature to seek friendship ; and friendship cannot be bought with money.
36、 Friendship has to be earned through our own attitude towards others.

38、one. But in their own homes they are worse than the devil .Such people cannot be said to have good manners .It doesnt take long for others to discover this.
