These are common foods in your kitchen that possess sun-protection compounds to aid your current sun-protection routine. Check them out to deal with-or prevent-summer sunburn.

1. Oatmeal (燕麦片)

Burn-fighting effect: When your whole body is sunburned, oatmeal provides the best type of relief.

Sunburn treatment: Break oatmeal into very small pieces, add it to cool water and apply it every two to four hours.

2. Fat-free milk

Burn-fighting effect: The milk creates a protein film on your skin that will help ease the discomfort of fresh sunburn.

Sunburn treatment: Apply cool, not cold, milk to your skin using a clean cloth. Apply compresses(敷布)for 15 or 20 minutes, and repeat every two to four hours.

3. Strawberries

Burn-fighting effect: Strawberry juice helps reduce the pain from sunburn.

Sunburn treatment: Crush a few ripened strawberries and spread your skin for natural relief. Wash them after a few minutes. If you’d rather not go the fruit route to avoid stickiness, make a paste out of cornstarch(玉米淀粉) and water and spread it on sunburned skin for relief, too.

4. Tomatoes

Burn-fighting effect: Tomatoes can help protect your skin from sun damage. In one study, volunteers who ate five spoons of tomato paste daily for three months enjoyed 25 per cent more natural protection against sunburn.

Sunburn treatment: Eat fresh tomatoes and add organic ketchup(番茄酱)to meals.

As we drove across town, I prepared my two children for what they were about to see. A lady from our new church was dying of cancer, and I had volunteered to help her with the house-work. “Annie has a tumor(肿瘤) in her head, which has disfigured(损毁…的外形) her face,” I warned.

I struggled for the words to describe Annie’s appearance to my son and daughter. Then I remembered a movie I’d seen with my son. I wanted him to understand that disabled people are like anyone else—their feelings can be hurt, too.

“David, remember the movie Mask about the boy with the facial deformity(畸形)?”

“Yes, Mom. I think I know what to expect.” His tone(语气) told me it was time to stop mothering him so much.

“What does a tumor look like?” Diane asked me.

I didn’t want to frighten the child, so I prepared her just enough but not too much.

“Her tumor looks like the skin on the inside of your mouth. It sticks out from under her tongue and makes it hard for her to talk. You’ll see it as soon as you meet her, but there’s nothing to be afraid of. Remember, don’t stare.” Diane nodded. I knew she was trying to picture a tumor in her mind.

We entered the living room, where Annie was sitting in her chair. At the sight of my children, Annie’s face brightened. “Oh, I’m so glad you came to visit,” she said toughly.

David walked across the room to Annie’s chair, put his arms around her shoulders and pressed his cheek to her face. Smiling, he looked into her eyes and said, “I’m happy to meet you.” Just when I didn’t think I could be more proud, Diane copied her big brother and gave Annie the precious, accepting hug of a child. My throat tightened with emotion as I saw Annie’s eyes well up with grateful tears.

Unseen Art wants to give the Mona Lisa and other world-famous artworks the 3D treatment so that they can be touched, making them accessible to the blind and visually impaired(受损的). “There are many people in the world who have heard of classical artworks their whole lives but are unable to see them,” say Marc Dillon, advocate for the project. “Now they can experience them for the first time and create their own impressions and opinions.”

The project is currently crowd-funding(大众筹资) on Indiegogo, offering 3D prints of the Mona Lisa for backers, which can be kept or donated to an organization serving the blind and visually impaired community. The money raised will be used to fund an online platform where the 3D files will be down-loadable for free, making 3D printable art available worldwide, anywhere there is a 3D printer.

The project strikes a personal chord(引起共鸣) with Dillon. “I was born with one arm shorter than the other. All my life, I continually had to prove that I was able to do everything I wanted to, from playing guitar and riding motorcycles to life-guarding and weightlifting. I also had an uncle who worked as a mechanic(技工) and became blind in adulthood. I saw he was able to continue to do almost anything a seeing person could do.”

To test the concept, Dillon took the first 3D print to the Blind Institute of Finland, “They were very excited to touch the Mona Lisa!”says Dillon. In a video for the project, one can see a blind woman experiencing da Vinci’s masterpiece through touch. Just like countless others throughout history, she is interested in Mona Lisa’s mysterious expression.“It’s a little bit… mysterious,” she says happily. “She wasn’t exactly a classical beauty！”

1.World-famous artworks are printed with 3D technology to ________ .

A. allow the disabled to experience by themselves

B. raise money for an online platform

C. keep those works for future generation

D. make money for themselves

2.How can the money raised be used?

A. For any printing office.

B. Other similar projects.

C. For an online platform.

D. Other famous artworks.

3.According to paragraph 3, we can know that ________ .

A. Dillon became blind in childhood

B. Dillon’s uncle was disabled too.

C. Dillon tried to become a mechanic

D. Dillon’s uncle created 3-D technology

4.After a blind woman experienced the printed works, she felt ________ .

A. disappointed B. worried C. unsatisfied D. excited

Santa and his helpers arrived at the ski slopes(滑雪场) to spread some holiday cheer.
