Sleeping in space is not easy, either. He has to sleep in a special sleeping bag on the wall because there is no gravity( 重力). Don’t worry about his dinner. Yang can eat chicken and rice.

The doctors suggested that yellow paper be used to replace the white one. According to their research, the experts found out white paper reflects too much light and easily tires a person’s eyes. The yellow paper, however, doesn’t look so sharp to a person’s eyes. In other words, it is much milder to the eyes of students who may do reading or writing for hours.The experts’ research findings were based on firsthand information and a number of scientist experiments including a new study among the students from 41 middle schools. To make the students understand the truth, Shanghai Education Development Co. Ltd has produced textbooks and exercise-books made of yellow paper. The books will be used in the whole city soon.51.
