What would you do if you had trouble seeing clearly？You would probably go to an eye doctor who might give you glasses.For many people around the world，however，such a way isn't that simple.
The World Health Organization reports that glasses can help one billion people in the world.Yet places like Ghana have only one eye doctor every 8 million people. Thismakes glasses almost impossible to get.Joshua Silver，a teacher at Oxford University，however，may have solved the problem.
Mr.Silver has developed liquid（液体）﹣filled glasses that users can adjust（调整） by themselves without seeing a doctor!The lenses（镜片） are filled with oil.Using a dial on the glasses，the user changes the amount of oil.This changes the strength（度数） of the lens.After the user finds the right strength，he then fixes the lens.
Results show that among those who have tried the glasses，around 80% are satisfied.Mr.Silver's goal is for everyone who still needs glasses to have such glasses as soon as possible.With a little more effort，Mr.Silver thinks that his goal might be achieved in the near future.

Teen's 'wuxia' world
While many teenagers are struggling （奋斗） to write articles for their exams，Jin Minzhe has already written a whole book.
The 15﹣year﹣old boy from Suzhou，Jiangsu，recently published （出版） his wuxia novel Ji Chi Jing Hong He Shan Yi（《几尺惊鸿河山意》）.The story is set during the Southern and Northern Dynasties （420﹣581）.A young man lays down his pen and takes up a sword to fight for his homeland.
"I love Jin Yong's wuxia stories，" Jin told Gusu Evening News. "I also love history.In the seventh grade，I traveled to Wuzhen，where Prince Xiao Tong from the Liang Dynasty once lived，and I was inspired（受启发） to write a wuxia story based on（以……为根据） him."
In a video interview with Xinhua，Jin looks a little bit shy.But when it comes to writing，he becomes someone bold.He shared a lot of his writing experiences actively. "I wrote around the clock as my ideas kept coming.After about 20 days，I finished more than 300 pages，" Jin said.
Jin's writing skills might come from his love of reading.In primary school，he read four books every week.In junior high school，where schoolwork is heavy，he still reads three to four books a month. ？
"My father loves history，so we often talk about our reading experiences and share our different opinions，" Jin said. "My mom takes me to bookstores and writers' lectures.She also took care of me when I wrote the book，reminding me not to stay up too late."
Jin said literature（文学） gave him a sense of calm and freedom. "Nothing can stop me from reading and writing，" he said.
