Every now and then, you may hear news of satellites (卫星) sent into space. On Feb 21, for example, US company SpaceX took 46 satellites into orbit (轨道). On Feb 27, China sent 22 satellites into orbit. Why do we need satellites?

There are more than 3, 000 active satellites moving around the earth, according to a Germany company. Satellites have all kinds of roles, such as sending TV signals (信号), showing you the way on the road, helping scientists with their studies, etc.

For example, the 22 satellites China just sent up are part of the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (北斗卫星导航系统). Shared bikes that use BeiDou chips (芯片) can provide more correct places, making them easier to find. Drones (无人机) can also use BeiDou while flying.

Before satellites, TV signals don’t reach very far. Mountains or tall buildings would block the signals. Phone calls to faraway places were also a problem. With satellites, TV signals and phone calls can be sent directly to a satellite and back down to different places on the earth. SpaceX is trying to go further. It plans to use satellites to provide people with Internet all over the world.

Satellites can also provide information about clouds, oceans, land and ice. They help scientists know changes in weather. By watching wildfires and volcanoes (火山), satellites can help to deal with natural disasters (灾害). Farmers can use satellites pictures to decide the best time to water their plants.

Look around and you’ll see people busy on their smart phones. Smart phones do make our lives easier. But have you ever thought about what they mean to your eyes?

According to a study, half of Chinese-people own smart phones and they spend an average of two hours a day using them. There has been a 35% increase in the number or people in China who suffer from shortsightedness since smart phones were introduced there in 1997.

Staring at smart phones for a long time gives you dry eyes. When looking at something in the distance, your eyes automatically blink(眨眼)a certain number of times. However, when you look at things closer to your face, the blinking slows down. This reduces the amount of tears and causes discomfort in your eyes. Another bad habit is using smart phones in dark rooms before going to sleep. If you look at a bright screen while your pupils(瞳孔)become larger, too much light enters your eyes. This can do harm to the eyes and cause a disease called glaucoma.

While you’re probably not going to stop using your smart phone, there are a few things you can do to protect your eyes. Hold your phone at least 30 centimeters away from your eyes when using it. Take a break every hour and try the following: look at something at least five meters from you and then focus on the top of your nose. Repeat this several times. It should reduce the discomfort in your eyes.
