Michelle is sixty years old now. She hopes to calculate her body age to learn if she is living a healthy life. Here are her ways to calculate her body age:
Find resting pulse rate(静息脉率)
A healthy heart usually beats between 60 and 100times per minute. A lower pulse rate shows that our hearts are strong. Higher pulse rates mean that our hearts have to work harder to do the same amount of work--they are weaker.
She adds one year to her chronological age(实际年龄)because her resting pulse rate is more than 100 beats per minute.
Calculate sleep
Our body needs sleep. People usually need to sleep between 7 and 8 hours per night. Getting less than that can make us tired and older.
Michelle will subtract(减去)six months from her age if she often gets 7-9hours of sleep. If she gets 5-6 hours of sleep or sleeps more than 9 hours, she will ad one year to her age. If she gets less than 5 hours of sleep, it means her body age will be even older.
Haiyan is 7 years old. Her parents gave her an iPad as a gift for her birthday. A month later,her eyesight(视力)dropped to 300 degrees. This is serious for such a young child.
Many children in China are facing the same problem: iPad using is bringing problems to their eyesight. The problem is so common that newspapers even call the iPad the "No. 1 killer of children's eyesight!"
"There are about 30 shortsighted children coming every day, "said Hu Dali, an eye doctor at Guiyang Aier Eye Hospital. "Half of those children have poor eyesight because they have played with phones and iPads for too long. "
Doctors and scientists say children's vision(视觉)is not yet fully developed and their eyes get tired more easily. The screen of an iPad uses very bright(明亮的)LED backlight. If children look at an iPad screen for a long time, their eyes do not have time to rest. This will make their eyesight worse over time.
Doctors advise that users should hold their iPads between 40-60 centimeters(厘米)away from them. The brightness of the screen should be comfortable for children. Parents should also stop their children from using an iPad for more than one hour every day.
