The London Olympic Games are coming soon．This summer, Chinese sports fans will be able to watch the exciting games in 3-D on CCTV．
When you watch 3-D movies or TV, you have to wear a special pair of glasses．The 3-D glasses make the people and the things on the screen look like they are in the room with you．
3-D, means having three dimensions：width, height and depth．3-D technology is based on the way the human brain and eye work．Because the pupils of a person's eyes are about 6.5cm apart, when we look at something, each eye sees it from different angle．Our eyes send the two pictures to our brain, and the brain puts them together．The small difference between the picture from the right eye and the picture from the left eye make us see depth．
While watching 2-D films, we don't have to wear the special glasses．We see the pictures in two dimensions, each eye get the same information．This is because there is only one way of watching it．
So the aim of 3-D technology is to get a different picture into each eye of the person．It uses two film projectors．One projects a left eye picture and the other projects a right eye picture．When we are in the cinema, we can see different pictures in each eye at the same time with the help of the 3-D glasses．
While watching 3-D films, we feel that we are actually in the same environment as the things we are watching．However, some people are against watching 3-D films．One of the reasons is the 3-D glasses makes the screen of the film or TV look darker．It is bad for eyes．What's more, people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3-D movies, because their brains need to work harder to “read” the pictures．

1970 was the World Conservation(保护)Year．The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger．They hoped that governments(政府)would act quickly in order to conserve nature．Here is one example of the problems．At one time there were 1, 300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain(留下)．The others have been destroyed(毁灭)by modern man and his technology(技术)．We are changing the earth, the air, the water, and everything that grows and lives．We can’t live without these things．If we go on like this, we shall destroy ourselves．
What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask, “What must we do now?” The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young people today．A lot of them know that conservation is necessary．Many are helping to save our world．They plant trees, protect wild animals, and so on．In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the 11-kilometer-long banks of the river．Young people may hear about conservation through a record called “NO ONE’S GOING TO CHANGE OUR WORLD”．It was made by the Scatles, Cliff Richard and other singers．The money from it will help to conserve wild animals．
