One possible version:
Zhao Na is an eleven-year-old girl. She enjoys watching cartoons on TV almost every day. She has watched over one hundred cartoons. Of all these cartoons, Tom and Jerry is her favourite. But these days she can’t see things clearly, so she went to see a doctor. The doctor advised her not to watch TV too often because it is bad for her eyes. She should do more eye exercises. If she follows the doctor’s advice, I’m sure her eyes will be better soon.
