A jobless man wanted very much to have the position(位置) of "office boy" at Microsoft. The HR manager asked him questions and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test. "You have passed the test," he said. "Give your e-mail address and I'll tell you the date when you may start by email." The man replied, "But I don't have a computer, neither an e-mail." "I'm sorry, "said the HR manager. "If you don't have an e-mail, that means you are not living, and anyone who isn't living cannot have the job."
The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do with only 10 dollars left. He thought and thought. Then he went to the supermarket and bought 10kilos of tomatoes. He sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he had 20 dollars. He started to go early every day and returned home late, doing business like this. Five years later, he was one of the biggest food retailers (零售商) in the USA.
One day, one of his friends asked him for his e-mail. He said, "I haven't got one." His friend couldn't believe his ears. "Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e-mail?" The man thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"
Recently, as more students use computers for a long time to have online lessons, more of them are feeling eyestrain(眼睛疲劳) Just a few hours in front of a computer screen can make a person's eyes feel tired and painful. A lot of eye doctors have studied this problem and have found ways to solve it. Following their advice will help keep computer users more comfortable.
★Lighting
The light in a room shouldn't be brighter than the computer screen itself. Maybe in many students' rooms, however, the lights are far brighter than they should be. Students can block some of this light by wearing baseball caps to protect their eyes.
★The Screen
A special computer screen which has less bright light should be used, because bright light is especially bad for the eyes. Another problem is to avoid the wrong kind of contrast (对比). Many people think that having light letters on a dark background can cause less eyestrain, but they are wrong. In fact, it is best to have dark letters on a light background.
★Angle (角度) of looking at the computer screen
Students should sit in front of the computers so that they are looking down at the computer screens. The top of the monitor(显示器) should not be so high as the top of a student 's head.
Breaks and Blinks (眨眼)
If students spend a long time in front of a computer screen, it can cause eyestrain. Students should take a break by looking away from the screen every fifteen or twenty minutes. During that time they should either close their eyes or look at things far away. Students should remember to open and close the eyes often while in front of the screen.

Dear Miss Li,
I'd like to thank you for sending money to Animal Helpers. I'm sure you know that this group was to help disabled people like me. You helped to make it for me to have Lucky. Lucky makes a big to my life. Let me tell you my story.
What would it be like to be blind or deaf? Or you can't walk or use your hands easily. Most people would never think about this, but many people have these difficulties. I can't use my arms or legs well, so normal things like answering the telephone, opening and closing doors, or carrying things are difficult for me. Then one day last year, a friend of helped me out. She talked to Animal Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. She also thought a dog might cheer me up. I love animals and I was about the idea of having a dog.
After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to bring him home. My dog's name is Lucky -a good name for him because I feel very to have him. You see, I'm only able to have a "dog-helper" because of your kindness! Lucky is very clever and understands many English words. He can understand me when I give him orders. For example, I say, "Lucky! Get my book, "and he does it at once.
Lucky is a fantastic dog. I'll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me. Thank you again for my life.
Did you hear about Meilun and Meihuan? They are a pair of twin pandas. They were born in a zoo in Atlanta, US. They have lived there for three years. Earlier this month, they came back to their hometown-Sichuan, China.
However, the two pandas are still not getting used to China They don't eat Chinese food like corn bread(窝窝头). They like US food. They can't understand Sichuan Chinese, but they can understand a few English words. Meilun and Meihuan attract many Chinese people to see them. They are just like popular stars.
Pandas are lovely and they mainly live in mountains in Sichuan because there is enough food, bamboo. There are about 1, 000 pandas in China. About 140 pandas live in zoos. Scientists are not sure how long pandas live in the wild, but they are sure a panda's lifespan (寿命) in the wild is shorter than that in zoos. Zoo pandas can live to as old as 35.

A museum is a good place to keep old and beautiful things. A museum may be a place to learn about science and a place to find out about art or people or animals.
Some museums have old cars and planes. Many museums have pictures and statues(雕像). Others have rocks and old bones (骨头) One museum even has a real old street inside. It has shops and people's statues doing business. It looks so real that you might feel that you are back to the old time.
Not only many cities but also some very small towns have museums. Indianapolis(印第安纳波利斯) has a children's museum. Children do not have to pay to get in. Children often go to the museum. They like to look at the dinosaur bones. They see a white bear that is ten feet tall.
On Saturday, children can hear talks about animals and trees in Indianapolis. They see movies. They take hikes. They even learn to make things there.
