25、 Your parents might have told you that you'd go blind from reading in the dark, but you could make up for it by eating a lot of carrots.This is just one of the wrong ideas you may have heard of.Here are scientific explanations for three mistakes people often make about our eyes
Can eating carrots improve your eyesight(视力)?
Carrots are rich in Vitamin A, which is essential for our eyes.Vitamin A helps people to see in low light conditions.However, eating more carrots doesn’t help you see better.A certain number of carrots will help, but a large number of carrots will not make you get rid of(摆脱) your glasses.
If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?
Myopia(近视) can be inherited(经遗传得到) from parents.A study found that if both parents have myopia, there is a 33 to 60 percent chance that the child has.For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it is down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopia parents.So no matter how bad your parents’ eyesight is, you will have a chance of having good eyesight.
Is it true that people who are color-blind can't see colors?
Color blindness doesn’t mean that someone can’t see colors at all.It means that some has difficulty seeing differences in certain colors, usually green and red or blue and yellow.Color blindness is usually a condition caused by not having cone cells(视锥细胞) or having the cells that don't work.There are different levels of color blindness.

27、 Have you ever read Charlotte's Web, a classic novel written by E. B. White? It is a story about a spider. He made friends with a pig and helped him.
Wilbur was an ill-fated(倒霉的)pig. When he was born, he was so small that the farmer Mr. Arable decided to end the pig's life. Fortunately, Wilbur met the lovely and kind-hearted farmer's daughter Fern, she stopped him from killing Wilbur and asked his father to give her the cute pig as her personal pet to feed in a barnyard(谷仓场院).
Fern loved Wilbur more than anything. She loved to touch him gently, to feed him, to put him to bed. Wilbur grew day by day and made many friends in the barnyard. They are geese, cattle, sheep, a spider and so on. Of all these friends Wilbur's favourite is Charlotte, a beautiful grey spider.
As the days went by, Wilbur grew and grew. He ate three big meals a day. He spent long hours lying on his side, half asleep, dreaming pleasant dreams. He enjoyed good health and he gained a lot of weight. One day, the old sheep Samuel in the barnyard told Wilbur that he would be served as Christmas dinner this year. Wilbur turned to Charlotte for help. Day after day the spider waited, head-down, for an idea to come to her. Hour by hour she sat motionless, deep in thought Having promised Wilbur that she would save his life, she was decided to keep her promise. She had the idea of writing words extolling Wilbur's excellence, such as "a famous terrific pig" in her web.
