ANSWER SHEET

REFLECT
Reflective Activities

1. Yes, because reading is a mind stimulant. Reading helps exercise your brain, to some effect.
Reading words you don't understand, or looking them up, or just thinking about them will make
more connections in your brain. The more connections you have in your brain, the more
intellectually advanced you will be.

2. Not really, though you can train yourself to see, and visualize scenes. Starting with the
basics; the brain is the most powerful image processor known. How many times have you seen
snapshots that just didn't capture what you thought you could see at the time? Whether it's you
concentrating on a distant image, or objects that due to their irrelevance in the scene you just
didn't notice. When you take the shot it just doesn't look the same, by default the camera gives
everything in the scene the same priority, so it's up to you the photographer to focus (as in
emphasize) on the subject you are interested in.

3. When I read, especially on my cell phone, my eyes immediately hurt, especially when it is
dark. I still need to take away my cell phone just so I can read the ones written. When the eye
gets tired of heavy use especially when driving and using digital devices.
