How to keep them on the wearer's face．It took nearly 400years for people to come up with the way wear glasses today
We should be thankful lo Benjamin Franklin，who invented bifocals（双焦点眼镜） in the1780s．He liked lo read or watch sceneries（景色） far away while traveling．But he hated to change glasses all the time．Then Franklin cut his glasses in half and put them together with his distance glasses．Now they are still popular．

How Can You Become a Successful Learner？
Everyone is born with the ability to learn． But whether or not you can do this well depends on your learning habits． Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common．
Creating an interest in what they learn
Studies show that if you are interested in something， your brain（脑）is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time． Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something interesting． For example， if they need to learn English and they like music or sports， they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English． This way they will not get bored．
Practicing and learning from mistakes
Good learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practice more． Remember， "Use it or lose it．" Even if you learn something well， you will forget it unless（除非）you use it． " Practice makes perfect．" Good learners will keep practicing what they have learned， and they are not afraid of making mistakes． Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight． He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes．
Developing their study skills
It is not enough to just study hard． Good learners know the best way they can study． For example， they may take notes by writing down key words． They also look for ways to go over what they have learned． They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student．
Asking questions
Good learners often ask questions during or after class．They even ask each other and try to find out the answers． Knowledge comes from questioning．
Learning is a lifelong journey because every day brings something new． Everything that you learn becomes a part of you and changes you， so learn wisely and learn well．
