    ［1］It is reported that 300 million people in China have eyesight trouble. More and more parents hope to save their children's eyesight with medicine, or by correcting the ways that children read and sit. But in fact, one should start with the exercise on one's feet. Here are three ways to save eyes:

    First, don't tie your shoes too closely. Try wearing comfortable and soft socks or walking without socks and shoes at home. While you are traveling, try wearing cloth shoes in order to improve blood circulation(循环).

    Second, walking on tiptoes is good for one's eyesight. It can fight against eyesight trouble. Numbers show that most of ballet(芭蕾舞)performers' eyesight is better.

    Third, rope skipping(跳绳)can also be good for one's eyesight. While skipping rope, one has to move quickly, making both the brain and the eyes excited. It may also help make one grow taller.

    ［2］Besides foot exercises, it is good to pull one's ears. Pulling the ears 20 times quickly is also a great way. It can keep one's eyes healthy.

    IG, a Chinese esports club, won the world best title in LOL(League of Legends)in 2018. So what is esports?

    Esports(Electronic Sports)is a kind of competition using video games between smart players. It is not only a simple game, but a sport in which players use electronic equipment(电子设备)to play with each other in intelligence(智慧).

    This kind of sport started ten years ago, but most people usually hold the opinion that playing online games has no good but taking one's mind away from their study or work. However, esports is not online games. In fact, there are some differences between them:

    First, the basic features(基本特征). Online games are for fun but esports is a sport. Esports is an intellectual(智力的)competition between people in a team.

    Second, the game rules. Esports has clear game rules. Its biggest feature is strict time and round limitations(限制). However, online games have less clear rules than esports. Without time limit, it's easy for young people to be addicted to(沉迷)it.

    Third, the sports spirit(精神). Esports competitions between players pay great attention(注意力)to fair(公平的)sports spirit. Some online games only need to pay money to get gifts, which is an important difference between esports and online games.

    In the coming 2022 Asian Games to be held in Hangzhou, esports will officially be a medal event(正式项目). Esports is a new sporting activity. It will take a long time to become a popular sport like NBA(the National Basketball Association of the US). Let's have a better thinking of esports and expect its bright(光明的) future.

Nowadays in school life, a lot of students develop a fear of tests. It's not because tests are something to be afraid of. Most students are afraid of tests mainly because they don't always think they are well—prepared and they don't have enough self—confidence. If you follow the advice below, it's not difficult to overcome your fear of tests.

People who know that they are not well—prepared are usually those who fear tests most. However, most students don't know when they are truly prepared for a test. As long as you know that you have studied well and long enough, you have reason to believe that you are well—prepared.

Be confident about yourself. Confidence before a test can bring about two results: either you fail the test and feel as if your confidence was unfounded (毫无根据的) or you could actually do well in the test because of your confidence. Some students find that they experience the first result. However, this is only because those students might not have followed the first advice mentioned above. As long as you have studied well, you will be more confident of your chance to succeed in a test. If you feel as if you have not studied hard enough, then you will not be as confident as you should be.

Ask your teacher in advance (提前) about the material that is going to be covered in the test. In this way, you will know what you should prepare for and you can get confidence in the test. But you have to be brave enough to ask. Most students do not ask unless their teacher gives the information first, so make sure that you ask.

You should know that tests are only telling if you have got the knowledge, not how good or bad your IQ is. So, even if you do badly in one test, you should know that there are other tests to come. As long as you think that there is another tomorrow, you can overcome your fear of a test. However, make sure that you are going to prepare well for the other tests.

Fear can be a problem in the process of achieving success. However, with the right attitude (态度) and preparations, you can overcome your fear of tests by using these suggestions.
