Question

There are many commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and eyesight that are not proven facts. For instance, some people believe that wearing glasses too soon weakens the eyes. But there is no evidence to show that the structure of eyes is changed by wearing glasses at a young age. Wearing the wrong glasses, however, can prove harmful. Studies show that for adults there is no danger, but children can develop loss of vision if they have glasses inappropriate for their eyes.

We have all heard some of the common myths about how eyesight gets bad. Most people believe that reading in dim light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue. Too little light makes the eyes work harder, so they do get tired and strained. Eyestrain also results from reading a lot, reading in bed, and watching too much television. However, although eyestrain may cause some pain or headaches, it does not permanently damage eyesight.

Another myth about eyes is that they can be replaced, or transferred from one person to another. They are close to one million nerve fibers(纖維) that connect the eyeball to the brain, so it is impossible to attach them all in a new person. Only certain parts of the eye can be replaced. But if we keep clearing up the myths and learning more about the eyes, some day a full transplant may be possible.

【解析】

試題分析：文章主要糾正了一些關(guān)于眼睛的錯(cuò)誤觀念。一些被人們普遍接受的關(guān)于戴眼鏡的觀念證明是不真實(shí)的。從很小的年紀(jì)就開始戴眼鏡不會(huì)改變眼睛的結(jié)構(gòu)。

1.But there is no evidence to show that the structure of eyes is changed by wearing glasses at a young age.”可知，沒有證據(jù)能夠證明從很小的年紀(jì)開始戴眼鏡會(huì)改變眼睛的結(jié)構(gòu)，即過早配戴眼鏡不會(huì)改變眼睛的結(jié)構(gòu)，故選A。

2.Wearing the wrong glasses...Studies show that for adults there is no danger”可知，成年人佩戴不合適的眼鏡對(duì)他們的眼睛不會(huì)造成傷害，故選C。

3.so it is impossible to attach them all in a new person. Only certain parts of the eye can be replaced.”可知，把眼睛移植到另一個(gè)人身上是不可能做到的事情，只有眼睛的某個(gè)部分可以被替換或移植，故選A。

4.There are many commonly held beliefs about eye glasses and eyesight that are not proven facts.”可知，一些被人們普遍接受的關(guān)于戴眼鏡的觀念證明是不真實(shí)的；根據(jù)第二段“Most people believe that reading in dim light causes poor eyesight, but that is untrue.”可知，大多數(shù)人所認(rèn)為的在昏暗的環(huán)境中看書對(duì)眼睛有害是不真實(shí)的；根據(jù)第三段“Another myth about eyes is that they can be replaced, or transferred from one person to another.”可知，眼睛可以被替換或從一個(gè)人身上移植到另一個(gè)人身上的觀點(diǎn)也是錯(cuò)誤的，由此可知，文章主要糾正了一些關(guān)于眼睛的錯(cuò)誤觀念，故選B。
