a very important period for young students to leave their parents 66 Who is the passage mainly intended for A Teenagers B Teachers C Young parents D Adults D Babies born in summer are more likely to become short sighted in late life a study has shown As many as a quarter of all cases of short sightedness are caused by too great an exposure to sunlight in the first weeks of life say eye experts They are advising all parents to put sunglasses on their babies during the first weeks Scientists had already established that over exposure to sunlight caused shortsightedness in animals Researchers who compared the months in which babies were born with whether they needed glasses later on say the principle also applies to humans A study of almost 300 000 young adults the largest of its kind showed that those born in June and July had a 25 per cent greater chance of becoming severely short sighted than those born in December or January Research leader Professor Michael Belkin of Tel Aviv University said it was because prolonged illumination 光照 causes the eyeball to lengthen causing short sightedness Hence the more light a newborn is exposed to the more the eyeball lengthens and the worse the short sightedness will be 4 The mechanism which lengthens the eyeball is associated with levels of melatonin 褪黑激素 a pigment 色素 which protects the skin against harmful rays of the sun In young babies not enough melatonin is released as protection meaning they are more vulnerable to sunburn and changes to eyeball shape Sight expert Professor Daniel O Leary of Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge said At the moment we don t know the precise cause of why light exposure affects sight but the evidence seems to prove that it is one of the reasons for people becoming shortsighted 67 Babies born in summer are more likely to be shortsighted A because the summer sun is too strong for babies B because babies who are born in summer have lengthened eyeballs C if exposed to much sunlight in the first weeks after they are born D if parents don t know a proper way to protect their babies eyes 68 Melatonin is a kind of material to A prevent the eyes from becoming near sighted B protect the skin from harmful sun rays C make our body strong D protect babies eyes from summer sun 69 From what Professor Daniel O Leary says we can conclude that A there is no evidence that shortsightedness is related to exposure to sunlight B whether light exposure affects sight still needs to be further proved C he believes that light exposure can cause shortsightedness D he tries to give the cause of why light exposure affects sight 70 The underlined word vulnerable in the passage probably means A easy to be harmed B resistant C protective D changeable 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 2 分 满分 10 分
