The reasons are simple and important to the way you see the rest of your world Your eyes are like two small c

31、ameras. A camera catches an image of an object and records it on filmSimilarly，when you look at something，each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeballBecause your eyes are set close together，they view the world from about the same height but from slightly different

32、angles. Working as a team, the eyes send the images to your brain, which puts them together into a single, centered image. Seeing in stereo means seeing with two eyes working together，which is called stereoscopic sightThis allows you to view the world in three dimensions，or 3-DSeeing depth helps you

33、 to judge the distance between you and the objects you see and to adjust to the changing angle at which you see something as you move closer to or farther away from itIf images are coming from only one eye, however，only two of these dimensions-height and width-can be perceivedA world seen with one e

34、ye is thus two-dimensional，as in a photograph Now consider why your two eyes are on the front of your faceThink of other animals with this same arrangementThey are all animals that hunt，like lions and wolvesTheir eyes face directly in front of themThis provides a field of sight about 180 degrees wid

35、e，which is called binocular sightOn the other hand，animals that are hunted have eyes on the sides of the head，which provides nearly 360-degree field of sightIn order to stay alive，they need to see things coming from the sides and from behindHowever，without stereoscopic sight，they have difficulty det

36、ermining how far a danger is With sight both stereoscopic and binocular，humans share with animal hunters the ability to see from side to side and to accurately determine the distanceIf you think it would be great to have another type of sight，perhaps with hundreds of tiny eyes like many insects do，t

37、hink again! Each tiny insect eye sees only a tiny partBesides，what if you needed glasses? Be glad for the eyesight that you have56. According to the passage，an eye is like a camera because both A. can record images B. can imagine objects C. provide centered images D. work at the same height57. Stere

38、oscopic sight is a result of having A. a three-hundred-sixty-degree field of sightB. hundreds of eyes，all seeing parts of an imageC. two eyes close to one another that work togetherD. one eye on either side of the head，each seeing a different image58The author implies that “seeing in stereo” Ais sim

39、ilar to the way cameras workBis an ability humans are fortunate to haveCwould be better for a wider field of sightDhelps people to have better sight than animalsBComputer games have been criticised for quite some time over a whole range of issues. Some people say they are overly violent and encourag

40、e violent behaviour particularly in children. Others say that they make children unsociable and are bad for their eyes. Some have even attributed falling standards of literacy and a lack of interest in reading on them. Now, however, it seems that computer games have also become a feminist issue. Gam

41、e manufacturers have, for some time, been looking to increase the number of female game players. The vast majority of computer games still sell to a mainly male market. Perhaps this is because the violent nature of many of the games appeals more to males or perhaps because many of the main character

42、s in the games are male. Manufacturers attempts to produce more female characters increase their share of the female gaming market which has met with serious criticism from many womens groups. While heroines such as Lara Croft of the Tomb Raider game are seen as providing positive role models of str

43、ong women, many believe that the characters unrealistic Barbies are subconsciously setting unattainable standards in the minds of young women. Perhaps a stronger criticism is that although many games now include female characters, their role is often secondary and they support the main, male, action characters within the games. Of course the nature of many of the games remains violent and destructive and this in itself could well continue to put off female gamers. There are now, however, a number of web sites springin
