【正确答案】
【答案解析】Nowadays there are fewer and fewer primary school pupils who do not wear glasses. And more and more parents complain that they have to take their boys or girls to eye doctors because they can’t make out the words their teacher wrote on the blackboard.
The graph shows that the number of primary school pupils who wear glasses has grown quicker and quicker, especially, since the year 1980. According to the graph, the number of Primary school pupils who wear glasses remained comparatively steady before 1980. Then it rose sharply upward.
The increase in number can be accounted for by a number of factors. First, our government restored the Entrance Examination enrolling young people to universities. In order to send the young to university, parents and teachers assign more and more homework to them at the cost of their eyesight. Another factor is that parents and teachers, even pupils failed to realized the importance of exercise. Finally owing to fierce competition in Entrance Examination, boys and girls" burdens become heavier and heavier. Meanwhile, their eye-sight becomes poorer and poorer.
For me, the effective way to solve this problem is to enlarge university enrollment to admit more students.
Only through this way can boys and girls" burdens be lightened, and their eyes be protected.
