Some eye doctors say this leads to an increase in “computer vision syndrome(电脑视力综合症).”Nathan Bonilla-Warford is an optometrist（验光师）in Tampa, Florida. He has seen an increase in problems in children. “A lot more children come into the office either because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes or discomfort, or because their nearsightedness appears to be increasing and theyre worried,” he says.Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely to pay no attention to early warning signs than adults. “Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, theyre less likely to tell their parents, because they dont want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away,” he explains.He says another part of the problem is that people blink（眨眼）less often when they use digital devices. He says, “A person who uses an electronic device blinks about one third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying protected like normal.”Eye doctors offer suggestions like following which is known as the 20/20/20 rule. That means every twenty minutes look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device youre using.Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital deviceswith no screen time for children under two.But not all eye doctors have noticed an increase in problems in children. Dr. David Hunter, from Childrens Hospital Boston, has not seen an increase in his practice. “While it is possible to develop fatigue looking at screens for a long period of time, theres certainly no proof that it actually causes any damage（伤害）to the eyes.” he says.（1）Which of the following is true according to the passage?A . Dr. Bonilla-Warford thinks using computers causes nearsightedness.B . People keep their eyes protected against drying by blinking normally.C . People keep their eyes protected against drying by blinking normally.D . Dr. David Hunter says headache causes an increase in eye problems.（2）What does the underlined word “fatigue” mean?A . InterestB . AbilityC . TirednessD . Difficulty（3）What can be the best title for the passage?A . Looking at Screen: Two Hours or MoreB . How Can Children Use Their Eyes ProperlyC . Using Digital Devices: Advantages and DisadvantagesD . How Much Screen Time Is Too Much for Children3. （10分）阅读理解Saidie and Bessie are sisters. They are Americans. They live in the mountain village.

Two years ago, my husband bought me a bicycle. If you live in a town, it is often faster than a car and you dont have to worry about parking. You can leave it anywhere. As it has a seat at the back and a basket in the front, I can take my small daughter to school, to the library, to the shops, and to anywhere.I use it most in summer when the weather is warm and dry. It can be very unpleasant in winter when it is cold and the snow is heavy. Of course, you must be careful on a bicycle. Accidents are not the only problem. One day I went shopping with my friends. But when I came back, I found that my bikes front wheel was missing. It was a long walk to the bicycle shop. Now I have three strong locks(锁).My husband uses my bicycle sometimes for short journeys.
