     About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about
one in two hundred is affected in this matter, Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
     There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He
may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference
between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green-a strange world
indeed.
     Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small
things called "cones" (圆锥细胞). These help us to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colors.
There are also millions of "rods" (棒条体), but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us
shape but no color.
     Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes (蚊子) prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract
insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With
the aid of the cones in our eyes we tan see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can
see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible (看不见的) colors around us.

A. color and its surprising effects

　　Do you know blood types?

　　Special care must be taken in selecting new blood for a badly injured person, who would be killed by the transfusion if the blood is too different from his own.

　　There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. Blood type, like hair and height, comes from parents. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A or B cannot receive AB, but AB, sometimes called the universal recipient, may receive A or B O type, often called the universal donor, gives his blood to any other group. Patients usually receive nothing but salt or plasma(血浆) until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans, about 42 percent have type A while 45 per cent have type O. The fewest, is the type AB.

　　We’ve all seen them：perfectly toned famous people on late-night television telling us that we too can develop rock-hard abdominal muscles(腹肌)．It’s easy! Just pay ＄149.99 for the Torso Track or ＄149.75 for the Ad-Doer and watch those unwanted inches leave your waist．Americans spend tens of millions of dollars on various products to firm up their fat around the waist．And did they work? Not necessarily．Independent studies have concluded that most of these products－no matter who approved them or how expensive they are－shape your midsection no better than old-fashioned stomach crunches(仰卧起坐)．Some can even cause injury－like the ＄518.99 Body Shaper-Q8SP, which left electrical burns on some researchers at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse．Others, like the popular Ab-Doer, typically burn less energy than a gentle walk, according to a study to be published in September by the American Council on Exercise．

　　The fact is that many Americans don’t have the biological makeup to develop an obvious abdominal muscles．They are either unable to get the necessary muscle mass or they can’t lose enough fat to make a difference．Even if the underlying muscles are well developed, all it takes to hide it is one-sixteenth of an inch of fat．That’s enough to exclude most healthy women as well as plenty of guys who do crunches every day．

　　So what works best? In its new study, the exercise experts researched on the results of the popular Ab-Doer．A lengthy TV advertisement promises that just 10 minutes a day performing such movements as “Body Boogies” and “Good Mornings” will “help form those muscles the fun and easy way without diets．” Steven Loy, professor at California State University, Northridge, tested the promise by measuring the electrical activity produced by the abdominal muscles during three Ab-Doer movements．He and his colleagues then compared the results with those produced during traditional exercises．They determined that the muscles were no more active, and in some cases less so, when exercisers were using the Ab-Doer．

　　Taking a broader approach, researchers at San Diego State University compared 13 abdominal exercises for their ability to develop the central abdominal muscles．They concluded, in a report published in May, that the most effective exercises kept turning the body and worked the muscles the entire time．Among the winners：the bicycle movements－so called because it looks as if you are riding a bike while lying flat on the floor－and exercises performed on the “Captain’s Chair”, a product typically found in gyms that helps hold the body in the air while you raise your legs up toward your chest．Researchers suggested that a varied routine of the different exercises could deliver the best results．
