18．（10分）Now glasses have become a daily necessity（必需品） for some of us.Sowhat do you know about them？
Nobody knows who made the first wearable eyeglasses，but experts say they appeared in Italy.Early eyeglasses were like magnifying glasses（放大镜）.And most of them weren't even made of glass!Instead，many early eyeglasses were made of quartz（石英）.That's because most glass at that time wasn't clear.so it wouldn't have worked well for eye﹣glasses.
Eyeglasses didn't look much like modern glasses until the 1700's.That's when people added car stems（镜腿） to hold the glasses on their faces.Glasses also became much more common around this time，probably because reading and writing became more popular.
People didn't start seeing eye doctors for glasses until the 1800s.In those days，people simply tried on different pairs of glasses until they found one that made them see better.Eye doctors changed all that.They gave people an eye test to see whether they needed a pair of glasses or not.
