Indoor lighting 8________________ (not do) the trick. Ideally, kids should get at least two hours of natural light a day.That said, our increased use of screens is a problem. Most screens are high contrast—like black text on a white page, or light text on a dark background, says Schwartz.

英语报刊选读读者⽂摘原⽂版INSPIRINGSTORIES（5）Running for Vets: 100 Miles Left to Go!Each of us has our own way of celebrating July 4. Retired Marine Jamie Summerlin will payhomage to our country resting up for the final leg of his 100-day jog across America. Since setting off from Coos Bay, Oregon, Summerlin has run over 3,300 miles to raise money and awareness for a number of veteran organizationsclose to his heart.Summerlin fell in love with running whilein training for his first marathon in 2009.He was inspired to make a cross-countryrun for vets because “I wanted to dosomething for my military brothers andsisters who needed a lot more exposureand awareness than they were getting,” hesaid.City by city, Summerlin’s old Marine pals have picked up the ra ce in support of his mission to help support the Wounded Warriors Project for disabled vets as well as two other vet groups in his home state of West Virginia. So far he has raised $40,000. Although the trip has beentrying —Summerlin has run in some extreme weather conditions and with a shin injury —it has been an honor, he said.On the 100th day of his run, Summerlin will celebrate the holiday in Annapolis, Maryland with his family and friends. But it does not end there. On July 5th, he will hit the road for another 100 miles, to officially finish in Delaware’s Rehobeth Beach. Wounded Warriors Participate in Soldier RideA cycling event helps veterans restore their physical and emotional well-being.Toby Montoya had made a promise to his best friend, Sgt. Kenneth Rahm of the Illinois National Guard, that if Rahm ever deployed, Montoya would go with him. So when Rahm’s unit was called up, Montoya put in a transfer from the New Mexico National Guard and the two men were deployed to Afghanistan together.In 2009, Montoya’s vehicle was hit by aroadside bomb. As a result of theexplosion, Montoya is wheelchair bound,INSPIRING STORIES 5suffers from a traumatic brain injury and a degenerative disk disease, and has lost about 30 percent of his peripheral vision in both eyes.This year, Montoya reunited with the members of his unit for the first time since leaving Afghanistan to participate in Soldier Ride, a cycling event organized by the nonprofit Wounded Warrior Project to help veterans restore their physical and emotional well-being. Soldier Ride is being held in 12 cities in 2012: Miami & Key West, Tampa, Jacksonville, Washington, DC, Chicago, New York, Seattle, North Fork, Phoenix, Nashville, San Antonio, and Landstuhl, Germany.“I officially came home,” said Montoya. “We’ve never not finished anything together. I’m not worried about finishing today. This is a brotherhood.”A Blind Soldier Swims to WinThis summer, America has an extraordinary opportunity to cheer on one of our country’s wounded warriors, Lt. Bradley Snyder, as he swims for the gold at the 2012 Paralympic Games in London.I was deeply moved by author Bill Briggs’ inspiring three-part piece on the 28-year-old Navy lieutenant, who was serving in Afghanistan as an “explosive ordinance demolition specialist”—military jargon for “bomb defuser”—last fall. After rushing to the aid of twowounded Afghan soldiers, he was blindedby an IED blast.During his recovery, Snyder soughtcomfort from the frustrations of physicaltherapy in the smoothness of hisswimming strokes. He began training forthe Paralympic Games, both to challengeother blind swimmers and to prove that hisnewfound obstacle would not break hisspirit.The way Snyder makes his way across the pool in complete darkness is nothing short of remarkable. He keeps silent count of his strokes to maintain a steady pace, and will occasionally brush his fingers against the lane line to ascertain his position. Snyder’s brother and coach act as his “tappers” on each side of the lane, gently tapping the swimmer on the back of the head with a padded walking cane to signal a flip turn or finishing kick.At the swimming trials this past weekend Snyder shattered his personal best in the 400-meter freestyle, setting a new world record in the event for fully blind swimmers and securing his spoton the 2012 U.S. Paralympic team. He’ll be jo ining over 30 military veterans and active-duty soldiers competing in the Paralympics this summer.The Gratitude ClubI have been reporting on extraordinary people for 25 years as a television journalist, but this small Oregon town and the man at its center, Woody Davis, stand alone in my memory. When I read a newspaper clip about the community’s reaction to Woody’s declining health, I knew that thiswould be a special story for my CBSEvening News series, On the Road (thetranscript of which is below).But nothing prepared me for whathappened when I traveled to Oregon lastDecember and began knocking on doors.Every single person knew Woody and hadcountless stories to tell about hisselflessness and generosity.For five decades, he helped plow cars out of snow, chopped wood, repaired farm equipment, and more. He was theconsummate good neighbor, and in his time of need, the community was rallying around him. I’d never seen anything like it. Corbett, Oregon, December 2011On a high ridge above the Colu mbia River, just down from heaven, you’ll find an angel on a front-end loader. Woody Davis, 69, is kind of a jack-of-all-trades. And although he’s never made much money at it, be all accounts, he has earned his wings. Here is some of what people in town have said of him:“He’s the epitome of something dear.”“You have to chase him down to pay him sometimes.”“He’s uncommon, he’s special, he’s a gift that this community has had all these years.”Which is why folks in this small town east of Portland are now going out of their way to thank Woody for the thousands of good deeds he’s done for them over the past 50 years.Recently, they all got together to cut and stack his firewood for winter. A couple of guys fixed up his old pickup. Someone even built him a beautiful wooden box and invited the whole town to sign it. “Did you know how much the community cared for him?” I asked Woody’s son, Clint.“Not to the degree I do now,” he said.Clint said all the work his dad did for people has been repaid tenfold. “Bill Gates could not come to Corbett and buy this. You can’t buy the love that people have poured out for Dad.”Their words and deeds are sincere and lasting. Unfortunately, the box is pine—and the outlook isn’t good. A few months ago, Woody was diagnosed with ALS—Lou Gehrig’s disease. Doctors tell him he has about six months. The disease, which attacks the nervous system, is already making it hard for him to lift much of anything or even talk. But his attitude remains unaffected. “What do you think of what everybody’s been doing for you?” I asked.“I feel blessed that I’m dying slowly.”I really didn’t think I’d heard him right. “Wait, did you just say you feel blessed that you’re dying slowly?”“Because people have a chance to express to me how they feel,” he s aid.In most communities, death is whispered, and praised is saved for the eulogy. But Woody Davis and the people of Corbett, Oregon, show us why that may be too late. Turns out even angels like to know they’ve made a difference.Miracle Boy Survivor of the Haiti EarthquakeAn estimated 100,000 children were left orphaned by the January 2010 earthquake in Haiti, but Kiki, luckily, is not one of them.Deep in the Haitian countryside, three hours from teeming, quake-torn Port-au-Prince, Moise “Kiki” Joachin shares a two-room wooden shack with his older sister and younger brother, their mother, her parents, and four or five other relatives. Coconut and banana trees grow in the dirtyard, but a recent flood has wiped out thefamily’s garden. So they buy food fromvendors down the road, a strain on theirminuscule budget.“They’re really struggling,” saysphotojournalist Allison Shelley, whotracked down the family in November forReader’s Digest.“The adults share a couple of mattresseson the floor, and the kids sleep on piles of clothes and comforters.” Even so, the Joachins are better off than many in this beleaguered country, where more than one million people still live in tent cities and more than 2,000 have died in a cholera outbreak. An estimated 100,000 children were left orphaned by last year’s earthquake, but Kiki, luckily, is not one of them.。

Reader's Digest, also known as Reader's Digest Association, is a global media and direct marketing company headquartered in New York City. The company was founded in 1922 by DeWitt Wallace and his wife, Lila Bell Wallace. The first issue of Reader's Digest, which was then called "The Reader's Digest," was published in February 1922.
Reader's Digest has been published in numerous languages, including English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Dutch, Italian, Hungarian, Polish, Czech, Romanian, Russian, Chinese, and Japanese. The English-language version of Reader's Digest is the flagship magazine of the company, and it has a circulation of over 4 million in the United States alone.
Reader's Digest is known for its condensed and edited versions of articles from other publications, as well as original content. The magazine covers a range of topics, including health, humor, politics, culture, and entertainment. One of the most popular sections of
the magazine is "Laughter, the Best Medicine," which features jokes and humorous anecdotes submitted by readers.
In addition to the print magazine, Reader's Digest also has a website and mobile app that offer articles and content similar to the print version. The Reader's Digest website also has a section called "Read Up," which features articles on health, travel, entertainment, and more.
In recent years, Reader's Digest has faced some financial difficulties and has undergone some changes. In 2009, the company filed for bankruptcy and was acquired by private equity firm Ripplewood Holdings. Following the bankruptcy, the company restructured its operations, reducing its staff and scaling back its international editions.
Despite these challenges, Reader's Digest remains a popular publication and has a loyal following. The magazine has been a staple in many homes for decades, and its content continues to inspire and entertain readers around the world. Whether in print or digital form, Reader's Digest
