If the only sports you do are dancing your fingers across your keyboard, you could be in serious danger of more than just becoming overweight and out of shape.
Do you often feel sleepy, like something is weighing down on your head? Do you feel forgetful? Do you sometimes feel uncomfortable up and down your neck and lower back, and you can’t explain why? Do you get sick often? It could be radiation(辐射) from your computer causing it. If you spend three hours or more a day in front of a computer, you are more easily harmful by the hazard(危险).
We have got so used to using computers that we often neglect(忽略) to think of them as dangerous sources of harmful radiation. A safe amount of radiation is 25V/m(Volts/meter). Do you want to guess how much our personal computers give off?
Keyboard： 1000 V/m
Mouse： 450 V/m
Monitor： 218 V/m
CPU： 170 V/m
Notebook computers： 2,500 V/m
Ways to Protect Yourself from Harmful Computer Radiation
1. Decorate your desk with cactus(仙人掌) plants, they take in radiation.
2. Drink two or three cups of green tea a day and eat an orange daily. The vitamins in tea leaves and oranges protect us from radiation and keep our eyes healthy as well.
3. Use a screen filter(过滤器) for your monitor.
4. Avoid having metal objects nearby on your desk.
5. Put the back of the computer to the wall. Most of the radiation comes off the back.
6. Keep your monitor at least 50 cm away from your face.
7. Keep your computer rooms ventilated(空气流通的).
8. Eat healthily---especially fruits and vegetables.
9. Don’t fall asleep on your computer. Turn it off if you have to rest nearby.
The ways above are useful, why not have a try at once?

Why are your study habits different from those of your friends? Why do you seem to learn faster in some classes while more slowly in others? One reason you may not know is that people have different learning types. Scientists say there are three different learning types： Visual, Auditory and Kinesthetic(动觉型).
Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily remember information from pictures, graphs(图表) and videos, you are probably a visual learner. You are not good at copying down what the teacher says in class. Never mind. You can draw graphs or pictures instead, if you find that works better for you.
Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to easily remember things by hearing them, then you are probably an auditory learner. You must listen carefully while the teacher is speaking because it’s the easiest way for you to learn. Sometimes you may find that taking notes stops you from listening carefully. After class, you can write down what you remember or borrow your friends’ notes to copy.
Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands, you are probably a kinesthetic learner. Taking notes by writing can make you pay close attention to information as you receive it. Of course, you can learn best by making full use of labs or other class activities.
Hope you learn better by knowing what your personal learning type is.The meaning of “Visual” is ___________________.
