If you are writing or studying, it makes much difference where the light comes from. People use 36 and pens every day. They have to be very careful about the 37  of the light because the light shines on their work.
Every 38 gets its light either from daylight 39 the window or from the lamps,   40  no matter what kind of light it is, the way it shines is very important to the eyes.
Take a book and sit with your 41 towards the window, and try to read. Your shadow(影子) falls all over the page and makes it 42 for your eyes as if you were in a 43 room. Now turn around and face the window. The page is in shadow again, 44 the bright light is in your eyes.Try sitting with your 45 side towards the window. This is very good for reading, but if you were writing, the shadow 46  fall across the page and trouble you 47 .There is another way – sit 48 your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for 49   as well.
Whatever kind of light is in the room, the rule about the right way to sit is 50 the same. So you see different ways to sit make much difference in writing or studying.

Many places in the world need more fresh water. Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh. Why aren’t there many factories like the Symi factory?
In some places the sun is not hot enough. Or it does not shine every day.
In such places other ways of heating sea water can be used. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling sea water with high heat a lot of fresh water can be made quickly.
But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried.
One way is freezing. The fresh part of salt water freezes first. To get fresh water, the bits of ice are taken out.
Which way is the best? The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way for each place.
Symi’s way seems very good for small, hot places. It does not make much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and costs little.
That is why people in many dry places talk about Symi.

Homework should be done as soon as you get home from school. If you have after-school activities, the homework should be done first. At the same time, it is fine to allow（允许）for a snack break and also to allow for stretching(拉伸的)breaks.
Also, you should remember that it is your duty to do your homework. Next time, when you want to depend on(依靠) Mom and Dad for help, please try to find the answer yourself, because you will learn much, much more that way.
When you have a question, especially something about a science or math, don’t always turn to your teacher! It is a good idea to try to find the answer yourself. If this doesn’t work, you can also look at the materials in the back of the book. They may guide you to the pages you should look at to help you understand the problem.
Finally, while doing homework, don’t think about or do other things. Keep working. Setting a time limit(限制) often helps with this. Different ages decide different amounts of time. 10-15 minutes is good for a child that’s aged 6-8. A time of 20-30 minutes is about right for a child aged 9-12. Kids can keep studying for 30-45 minutes from the ages of 13 to 15. This, of course, depends on your abilities to pay attention and stay on tasks.
