"Hey, don't read in the hallway. Your eyesight will be damaged." You must have heard such warnings many times. Don’t read in dim (暗的)light! This is one of the “pearls of wisdom” that are supposed to help us live a healthy life. Such common beliefs, however, lack scientific basis, according to a paper published recently in the British Medical Journal.

Do you believe in the following everyday wisdom?

Reading in dim light ruins your eyesight.

In dim light, you might blink (眨眼) more, feel discomfort from drying and have trouble focusing. But the majority of eye experts believe it is unlikely to do any permanent damage.

We must drink at least eight glasses of water a day

In 1945, the Nutrition Council in US suggested that people need to consume 2.5 litres of water a day. But the water contained in food, particularly fruit and vegetables, as well as in milk, juice and soft drinks, also counts towards the total.

We only use 10 percent of our brains.

This myth arose as early as 1907. People have long argued about our power of self-improvement and our brains’ potential abilities. But detailed imaging shows that no area of the brain is silent or inactive.

Shaving your legs causes hair to grow black faster and thicker.

This theory is also illusion. Shaving has no effect on the thickness or rate of hair growth,

studies say. Just over time, the edge of hair gets worn away and thus the edge of long hair becomes finer (更细). So hair that is newly grown gives the impression of darkness.

1.What does the paper say about some common beliefs?

A. They are pearls of wisdom B. They help us live in healthy ways

C. They are well-known theories. D. They do not have scientific basis.

2.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?

A. Reading in dim light does harm to one’s eyes.

B. People need a total of 2.5 litres of water a day

C. People use 90 percent of their brains.

D. Shaving your legs will give you thicker hair.

3.This passage is most likely to be found in __________ ?

A. a newspaper B. a science fiction

Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.

The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.

As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.

Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.

"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas," says Wang Lan , a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.

However, in the past few years, many of Wang's student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.

A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.

"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 Yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 Yuan. This is a relief for my parents," Li says.

She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.

"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China," she says.

Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.

1.What's the main idea of the passage?

A. Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.

B. Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.

C. Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.

D. More students will work in Australia after their graduation.

2.Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations?

A. The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.

B. The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.

C. Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.

D. After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.

A. more students will come to Australia to work

B. more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.

C. the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students

D. more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia

4.How much can Li's parents save according to the new regulations?

A. 550,000 yuan B. 140,000 yuan

C. 410,000 yuan D. 86,850 yuan

5.Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation?

A. The working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness.

B. They can earn more money in Australia.

C. Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.

D. They have to do so according to the new regulations.
