For some people, music is no fun at all. About 4% of the population is what scientists call “amusic”. People who are amusic are born without the ability to enjoy musical notes. Amusic people often cannot tell the differences between two songs.

As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amuics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. In fact, most people cannot begin to understand what it feels like to be an amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping center can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics have to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify(辨別) this unusual condition.

Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from those of people who can enjoy music. The difference is complex(復雜的), and it is not connected with poor hearing. Amusics can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.

Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed(診斷). For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem music. Now she knows that she is not alone. That makes it easier for her to explain. When people invite me to a concert, I just say “No, thanks. I’m amusic.” says Margret.

One day I got in a taxi, and we left for the airport. We were driving in the right lane (車道) when, suddenly, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stopped his car at once. The tire (輪胎) made a very loud noise, and at the very last moment our car stopped just one inch from the black of the other car.

I was frightened. But then I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head and started yelling(吼叫) at us. I couldn’t believe it! But my taxi driver just smiled at the guy. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost sent us to hospital. ”

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Rubbish Truck (垃圾車法則) . ” He explained that many people are like rubbish trucks. They run around full of rubbish, full of anger and full of bad feelings. As their rubbish piles up, they look for a place to throw it away and sometimes they’ll throw it at you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their rubbish and spread it to other people at work, at home or on the streets.

Successful people never let rubbish trucks change their moods (情緒). Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love those who love you and pray(祈禱) for those who don’t.

Many of us don’t pay attention to the importance of eye care. It’s said that if you take care of your body, then you can be healthy. 1. Natural eye care should be put in a number one place.

There are several causes leading to poor eyesight like not enough food, gene (基因) and aging (年齡增長). 2.

If you happen to work in front of the computer, it is best to take a rest every once in a while. Something dirty can cause redness and they will make you feel uncomfortable. It is bad for your eyes, too. 3. You must also try your best to protect your eyes from harmful things. For example, sunglasses are not just fashion but they can also serve as a great way to protect your eyesight from UV rays (紫外線).

4. Remember that vitamins (維生素) A、C and E are good for eyes. Try to eat food groups that have these vitamins. And you should do eye exercises because exercise protects your eyesight, too. If a person exercises regularly (規(guī)律地) and eats the right kind of food, his eyes will stay in good condition for a long time.

All above are natural ways of eye care that help us keep healthy eyes. Being happy all the time can be helpful to a person’s eyesight, too. 5.
