Disability aids are vital to those who suffer problems with executing work with two hands．These are people who have been disabled due to some major sickness or some other problems．In order to help them carry on their work in the normal way, disability aids are manufactured．This helps them make their life a lot easier than what it would have been without these aids．The kind of disability aids that an individual might require depends on the person only．It is the problem that a person faces that decides the aids that he/she will use for carrying out their respective jobs．The following is the list of a few disability aids that come of significant use．
The first and foremost aid is the stocking aid, aiding the individuals suffering from the problem of bending down to reach the foot and wear their own socks．These stocking aids have a gutter(槽) that is made up of plastic material．These gutters are shaped in a certain way along with the attachment of cotton tapes in it．The sock is then put over the gutter．The foot is placed inside the gutter．The cotton tapes help in pulling the socks up the leg and subsequently the sock．In this manner, the sock is worn by a person who has problems wearing it by bending one’s back and reaching the foot．
There are openers that help the people who have problems with their hands or wrists to open bottles of ketchup, jam and other such bottles and jars that necessitates the use of hands and fingers．
The third type of disability aids that comes to our minds are lifts．Now what are lifts? Lifts are certain machines that help in lifting people from specific areas, such as a bathtub or a set of stairs．These lifts are of varied types and come for numerous applications．It is for the individual to decide the type that he/she requires to use．
For people, who have problems in balancing their upper bodies in a stable manner, there is something known as grab rails．These grab rails are installed for those who have mobility problems in their upper bodies．These rails come in varieties of shapes, sizes and angles．These grab rails are available to home users as well, in their different variations．One can purchase and fix one to their homes according to one’s specificities．These grab rails require the act of screwing and drilling in order to fix them to their appropriate place．The prices of these rails also vary according to the variation of their shapes and sizes．
A portable book holder is a much sought-after disability aid．It can be used by anybody for that matter, not just the disabled．These portable book holders are light-weight and can be easily moved about．These holders relieve the strains on one’s hands, necks and shoulders that might occur due to the handling of a book．The holders are provided with extended legs that help in placing the reading material at suitable distance．
Thus with the help of these disability aids, the old and disabled people can make their lives much more convenient and comfortable that would otherwise have been a cumbersome and complex one．

Steps to Retire as a Millionaire
Having a million-dollar savings is a retirement dream for many people．Making that dream come true requires some serious efforts．While success is never a sure thing，the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective．
1.Vacations，cars，kids and all of life's other expenses take a big chunk(大块) out of your paycheck．To maximize your savings，you need to minimize your expenses．Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings．
2.If you don't save，you'll never reach your goal．Obvious as this might seem，far too many people never even start to save．If your employer offers a 401(k) plan (一种养老保险)，simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck，increasing your savings and decreasing your taxes．It's like getting a guaranteed return on your investment．Finding the cash to stash (隐藏起)may be a challenge，particularly when you're young，but don't let that stop you from pursuing future riches．
3.If you are looking to grow your wealth over time，fixed income isn't likely to get the job done，and inflation (通货膨胀) can take a big chunk out of your savings．Investing in equities (股票) may have more risk，but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns．For many of us，it's a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow．
4.Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur．If you are not prepared，these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts．While you can't avoid all of the bumps in the road，you can prepare in advance to reduce the damage they can do．
5.Your income should rise as time passes．You'll get raises，you'll change jobs，and maybe you'll get married and become a two-income family．Every time more cash comes in to your pocket，you should increase the amount that you save．The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can．
A． Watch Your Spending．
B． Prepare for Rainy Days．
C． Start Saving．
D． Get Aggressive．
E． Save More．
F． Set the Goal．
G． Have patience．

Lights Out at Bedtime
There are plenty of good reasons to power up a personal desktop or laptop computer in the evening — writing e-mails， chatting on social networks or making purchases over the Internet， for instance． But various studies indicate that people who stare at a PC’s bright monitor shortly before going to bed probably sleep less soundly than they would otherwise because the light seriously affects their natural wake-sleep cycle．"They haven't proved it though，" says Dieter Kunz， the team's director at Charite's Psychiatric Clinic in St． Hedwig's Hospital in Berlin．
Similarly， exposure to just 10 minutes of normal bathroom lighting is enough to free the sleep hormone melatonin， which regulates people's natural wake-sleep cycle and makes them sleepy at nightfall．
Ten years ago， a team of British and American researchers detected a photo-pigment（光敏色素） in the human eye that signals to the body whether it is day or night， summer or winter． The photo-pigment is especially sensitive to blue light．
"The blue light more or less tells the body， It's daytime， be awake，'" Kunz says． Monitors have a mostly cold white light content and scientists suspect the photo-pigment may react similarly to it． So the longer people look into the bright light， the more awake they become - and then sleep poorly．
A lot of people have difficulty "switching off" in the evening． About half of the women in Germany and a quarter of the men sleep poorly．
Environmental factors are only one of the possible causes． Job stress as well as personal and health concerns are also the main reasons for their sleep problems．
In addition， electronic objects' standby lights and indicator lamps can be annoying in the dark and affect sleep．"Sound scientific evidence is still lacking on this matter，" Kunz notes．
According to Kunz， those who cannot go without their computer in the evening should turn down the blue content if possible and lower the brightness somewhat．"But nobody does that because， after all， you want to concentrate while working at the computer and the light helps the brain．"
1.The passage is mainly about ____________．
A． natural wake-up cycles
B． the effect of light on sleep
C． personal and health concerns
D． functions of computer monitors
2.The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to_____．
A． normal bathroom lighting
B． 10-minute exposure to lighting
C． the release process of a chemical
D． a chemical affecting one’s sleep cycle
3.We can learn from the passage that ______．
A． the blue light has a calming effect．
B． the photo-pigment tells people day or night
C． women in Germany use computers more often than men
D． it has been proved that standby lights affect people’s sleep
