问题 In Asia, the percent of the students whose eyes are being damaged is______.
  
The strong emphasis on educational achievement in China, Japan and other parts of South East-Asia may be coming at a heavy price.(1)Researchers say that hard work at school plus the lack of exposure to outdoor light is damaging the eyes of almost nine out of ten students—with one in five at serious risk of visual impairment and blindness. The scientists say that young people need up to three hours a day of outdoor light, but many infants are also missing out as they nap during lunch time. Dr. Ian Morgan, the lead author of the study, stated: We’ve got the massive educational pressures and we’ve got the construction of a child’s day in a way that really minimizes the amount of time they spend outside in bright light.
    The scientists say that genetic factors, long thought to play a big role in short-sightedness, are not as important as the environment. They point to Singapore as a place with several distinct ethnic groups, all of whom are now suffering high levels of short-sightedness. The authors suggest that required time outdoors should be considered by educational authorities across South-East Asia as a way of dealing with the problem.

选项 A、Whatever the weather is, they should spend more time outdoors.
B、They should play outdoors and enjoy more sunlight.
C、Their academic pressure should be minimized.
D、Parents should take infants outdoors at noon.

答案A

解析 推理排除题。由句(2—1)和(2—2)可知,科学家认为年轻人一天需要暴露在户外光线中三小时,但许多婴儿错过了户外时间,因为他们在午饭时睡午觉。孩子们在户外明媚的阳光下嬉戏的时间已经少得无法再少,学业压力应该减少。所以答案为A。
