Many people believe the glare from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow blindness, when exposed to several hours of "snow light" .
The United States Army has now determined that the glare from snow does not cause snow blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man’ s eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of a snow-covered area. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscle aches. Nature balances this annoyance by producing more and more liquid which covers the eyeballs. The liquid covers the eyeballs in increasing quantity until vision blurs. And the result is total, even though temporary, snow blindness.
Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts (侦察兵) ahead of a main body of troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching through the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the man can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a solid white area is overcome.
When the eyes are sore, tears are produced to______.
选项
A、clear the vision
B、remedy snow blindness
C、ease this annoyance
D、loosen the muscles
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。根据第二段倒数第三句“Nature balances this annoyance by producing more and more liquid which covers the eyeballs.”可知,在这种情况下,由于人身体的自然反应,眼睛会分泌液体(眼泪)来缓解这种不舒服。故选C。
