Today school children in many countries have high rates of failing eyesight. Two methods have been proposed to prevent near-sightedness, one Western and one Chinese. The Western method was developed by Mr Bates, a British actor, in the early part of this century. He trained people to relax their eyes frequently during a period of intense reading. His methods included covering open eyes with the palms of the hands and looking at distant objects by moving the eyes from side to side instead of staring at them. Bates also encouraged school children to look frequently at a calendar on the wall of the classroom to relax their eyes.

Many Chinese students have studied English for more than ten years. However, they am still unable to speak English very well when they meet a native speaker. They seem to have mastered the basic language structure, but a conversation in English will make them feel uncomfortable. They are afraid that other people might find out their mistakes. It’s common that many students who are had speakers of English can write English perfectly. This proves that they are unable to think about their ideas in English. The key point of the problem is that they lack practice and positive belief in themselves. Why should you be afraid Do you fear those native speakers with whom you are speaking Don’t be shy!
