Fix it on your own

Did you know that a bowl of rice could save your iPod if you drop it

in a swimming pool by accident? Or that the camera on your phone could

tell you what’s wrong with your TV remote control? The experts at Geek

Squad （geelsquad．co．uk） have made a gadget （小机件） rescue guide．So,

let’s take a look at some of their useful advice．

♦ How to get more juice out of your phone batter

If your battery goes dead but you need to get a number or send one

last text, try warming it up．That may give you a tiny bit of power．Take

the battery from the phone and rub it between your hands．Or warm it under

your arm for a few minutes．Then try to start the phone but use it quickly．

♦ What to do if your gadget gets wet First, try drying it out with a vacuum cleaner （真空吸尘器）．If a

vacuum cleaner isn’t at hand, fill a pot or bowl with uncooked rice and

put your wet gadget inside．The dry, uncooked rice will absorb all the

water and, after a few hours, you should be able to use the gadget．Don’t

forget to remove the battery and SIM card before you dry it．

♦ What to do if your TV remote control stops working

If replacing the batteries doesn’t work, get the camera function up

on your phone and point the remote at the lens （镜头）．When you press

a button on the remote, if it is working, the glass bobble （小球） at

the front of the remote will light up when you look at it on the screen

of your phone．This is because the screen on a phone or digital camera

picks up infrared rays （红外线）, even though your eyes don’t．If the

glass bobble doesn’t light up, the remote is broken．If it does, the

receiving device （装置） is broken．

A

Close your eyes for a minute and imagine what life would be like if

you had a hundred dollars less．Also imagine what it would be like spending

the rest of your life with you eyes closed．Imagine having to read this

page, not with your eyes but with your finger-tips．

With existing medical knowledge and skills, two-thirds of the

world’s 42 million blind should not have to suffer．Unfortunately, rich

countries posses most of this knowledge, while developing countries do

not．
