If you spend two or three hours playing outdoors each day, it's less likely(可能的)to get short-sighted, a research shows. It challenges the old belief that short-sightedness is caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.

The Australian scientists believe that sunlight is good for people's eyes. They did a research among 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. According to the result, about 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted while there were only 3% Australian children get short-sighted while there were only 3% Australian children get short-sighted.

Both groups spent almost the same time reading. Watching television and playing computer games. However, the Australian children spent an average(平均) of two hours a day outdoors—90 minutes more than the Singaporean children.

Professor(教授) Ian Morgan said. "'Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. There're also more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world—and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors. ”

Daylight can be much brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside stop us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical(化学物质) which is good for our eyeballs and stops people becoming short-sighted.

So go outdoors, It doesn't matter if that time is spent having a picnic or playing sports.

62. Who did the research?

64. How much time did the Singaporean children spend outdoors on average every day in the research?

A. 2 hours.         B. 90 minutes.     C. 1 hour.              D. 30 minutes.

65. What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph(段)?

A. Why people become short-sighted.

B. Why natural light has a special chemical.

C. Why playing outside can stop people from becoming short-sighted.

D. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light.
