After that, the young man started to study under the old warrior, but he still wanted to know the old mans secret to success.

In fact, Chinas young people have the highest rate (率) of nearsightedness in the world, according to a report from the World Health Organization. More than 70 percent of middle school students in China are nearsighted. In August, a plan to solve this problem was introduced. It aims to cut down the rate of nearsightedness for middle school students to less than 60 percent by 2030. Schools across the country are taking action to meet this goal. Luoyang Experimental School in Henan started with its desks. It has designed (设计) desks with a board above the desktop. The board stops students from lowering their heads too close to their desktops. More than 400 students have used them so far. More students will use them soon. Similarly, the High School Affiliated to Renmin University Chaoyang Branch School is now providing desks and chairs according to students heights. Studies have shown that proper desk height can prevent nearsightedness. Spending more time outside can also reduce nearsightedness. The Yucai Middle School attached to Chengdu No 7 High School makes sure that its students play outside for at least 80 minutes every day. “We have a PE class and a 20-minute break in the morning and afternoon to do exercises,” said Sun Zihan, 14.Staring at screens can also hurt our eyes. Beijing 101 Middle School has a solution to this problem.

Jin Yong is the pen name of Louis Cha Leung-yung (查良镛). He was probably the most influential (有影响力的) martial arts (武侠) novelist in the Chinese-speaking world. On Oct. 30th , the great writer passed away at 94 years old in Hong Kong. During his lifetime, Jin Yong wrote 15 martial arts novels. Over 300 million copies of his books have been sold around the world. Jin Yong created a fantastic world. In this imagined world of jianghu, martial arts heroes fight for justice (公平) . Jin Yong once said that “wuxia (martial arts) is not so much about wu (kung fu), but mainly about xia, a combination of courage, justice and self-sacrifice (自我牺牲)”. He was not the first martial arts novelist, and will hardly be the last, but it was he who passed the spirit of xia on to several generations of Chinese people. His works have been a huge influence on pop culture in the Chinese-speaking world and have become a phenomenon(现象). And now, the writer has left us. However, the imaginary world he created will never die. The spirit he honored will never die as well.(C)If you are a music lover, you mustnt miss the GarageBand app. You can make your own son
