11、, or surgery, but even still nearsighted people are at a higher risk of glaucoma (青光眼),retinal detachment, and cataracts.

12、e are spending too much time indoors, according to a report published in Nature.Studies of twins in the 1960s showed that DNA influences nearsightedness. But information from as far back as 400 years ago indicated that genes werent the whole story 一 the astronomer Johannes Kepler thought his own poo
13、r vision resulted from having his nose in a book fbr so many years. More recent research has supported Keplers hypothesis: The rise in myopia syncs up with a stronger emphasis on education. German researchers have also found that students who attended more years of school had a much higher rate of m
14、yopia than their less academic peers.Myopia experts havent reached a consensus about exactly how to slow the rising tide of nearsightedness. But one Australian researcher found that kids could maintain healthy vision by spending three hours per day under light levels of 10,000 lux or more. This is a
15、bout the level experienced by someone under a shady tree, wearing sunglasses, on a bright summer day. For comparison, a well-lit classroom is usually no more than 500 lux. Many researchers agree that kids who spend more time outside will maintain good vision for much longer, plus the physical activi

19、ctive processes. Thanks in large part to research done by Dr. Alex Shigo, we now know a great deal more about the way trees protect themselves than we did 50 years ago.Just as our skin keeps harmful bacteria on the outside, bark (树皮)keeps out tree diseases. Since they cant move around to avoid dange
20、rs, trees need thicker “skin than we do. Living and non-living tissues protect tree trunks, roots, and branches from mechanical injury, drying out, and diseases.But when something destroys this first line of defense tears through the bark 一 what happens internally is interesting. When an injury occu
21、rs, a tree will transform some of its stored sugars to make masses of defensive chemicals, which are then distributed in a specific pattern internally around the wound. Dr. Shigo was the first to document this pattern, which he called CODIT - Compartmentalization (分室化)of Decay (腐烂)in Trees.In making
22、 these CODIT compartments, trees form chemical walls to protect themselves from infection. The success of this walling-off process depends a lot on the species. Hardmaple, for instance, can generate a strong CODIT response while species like soft maple achieve only an average level. Some, on the oth
23、er hand, barely manage to form any chemical walls.Overall tree vitality is another important factor. Even a hard maple may not be able to form strong chemical walls if ifs in a weak state. By definition, landscape trees are stressed as compared to their forest-living cousins. A street tree is worse
24、off, faced with limited root space, air pollution, and more. The size of the injury also makes a difference. Even a healthy tree can have its defenses destroyed by a large wound.Humans can help maximize trees defense capability by watering during dry seasons, keeping things out of the root zone, etc
