　　researchers (研究者) have announced (宣布) the result of two studies on the health effects of the drug aspirin (阿斯匹林). one study shows aspirin can sharply reduce the chance that a healthy, older man will suffer from a heart attack (心臟病).
　　the study offered two new results from earlier findings. it said taking one aspirin pill every other day helped only healthy men over the age of fifty. it also said aspirin gave the greatest protection against heart attacks to men with low blood cholesterol (膽固醇) levels.
　　earlier in the united states began a major aspirin study in the early 1980s. it included 22,000 healthy men doctors. all were between the ages of forty and eighty-four. more than 11,000 of the doctors took a harmless pill that contained no drug. the men did not know which kind of pill they were taking.
　　the doctors who took aspirin suffered 44% fewer heart attacks than those taking the harmless pill. 139 men who took aspirin suffered from heart attacks. ten of them died. 239 men who did not take aspirin suffered from heart attacks. twenty-six of them died.
　　the researchers said the doctors’ study provides clear proof that taking aspirin can prevent a first heart attack in healthy, older men. they said, however, the result does not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. they said aspirin couldn’t help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarettes and who are fat. the researchers said men who think they would be helped by taking aspirin should talk with their doctors first.

　　it seems to be strange to you there is a blind spot (盲點(diǎn))on the eyes. here is an interesting experiment (實(shí)驗(yàn)) that can make something disappear, when one eye is open.
　　make a card about the size of a postcard and write two english letters l and r on it, l on the left and r on the right. first, hold the card about 80 cm away and you see both the letters. then close your right eye and look at the letter r only with your left eye. and now, as you move the card slowly towards you, you’ll find the letter l disappearing. but if you move the card nearer to your face, the letter will be seen again. now do the same experiment with your left eye closed, you’ll find the letter r disappearing.
