The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty after playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful col ors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.

Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

For better eyesight (视力), doctors advise limiting (限制) the hours o f screen

time and encourage having enough eye resting time.

However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or T

V screens for

long hours is not the only reason for myopia (近视). An Australian r esearch team

studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons fo r myopia. The

research team found that there were less children who had myopia i

n Sydney than

those in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of com puter and TV

screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer ho urs on outdoor

sports than those in Singapore.

Indoor and outdoor sports both make the eyes pay attention to more d istant (远处的) objects, which stops the eyes from changing original s hape. But outdoor sports
