Do you often listen to music at loud volumes? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing. Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss(听力丧失), because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB (分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes.The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear. Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells(听毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells notice sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss Once this happens, it's hard to get your hearing back.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.
The "safe level" for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. a level of 80 dB is about equal to(相当于) the noise of a subway.
Here is some advice on safe listening. Over﹣the﹣ ear headphones(头戴式耳机) are better than in﹣ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume.Don't listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60: 60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones' maximum volume for no more than 60 minutes a day.
根据短文内容,判断下列句子正误.正确的用"A表示,不正确的用"B"表示.
(1)It is safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 100 dB for 15 minutes.
(2)Listening to loud noise for a long time can cause some hair cells in the inner ear to die.
(3)From the fourth paragraph, we know people don't always realize how loud their music is.
(4)In﹣ear headphones are better than over﹣the﹣ear ones because they can stop more outside noise.
(5)This article mainly tells us why ears are an important part of our bodies.
Do you want to improve your physics and chemistry grades? Well, maybe you should first lean something about the struggles(奋斗)of great scientists.
The American Psychological Association did an interesting study. More than 400 students from schools in New York City took part in it. The students were divided into three groups. Group I read a typical textbook that describes the achievements of great scientists. Group 2 read about those scientists' personal struggles. For example, as a Jew, Einstein(爱因斯坦) ran away from Nazi Germany to avoid persecution (迫害). The last group read about the scientists' intellectual struggles,such as Marie Curie's failed scientific tests. These stories about struggles also told students how the scientists dealt with these obstacles(障碍).
The students took a science exam before the study. After the six﹣week study, they took another Scientists found those in Groups 2 and 3 improved their science grades. Students in Group I didn't see a grade increase. Some of them even had lower grades after the study.
The study was led by Xiaodong Lin﹣Siegler, a teacher at Columbia University.According to Xiaodong, kids often think Einstein was truly intelligent. They believe they will never match him. Many of them fail to realize that any success requires a long journey. Along the way, there are many failures(失败).
Students who read the struggle stories more probably said that great scientists were like themselves. The "great minds" also had to overcome obstacles to achieve success.
Xiaodong says today's science textbooks fail to bring science to life. As a result,students seldom regard science as part of their everyday lives. Instead, they just see a long list of facts that they have to remember. Xiaodong thinks textbooks should include more stories about how great scientists had to struggle to succeed. And students should focus more on how these scientists dealt with the obstacles they met along the way.

The findings came from a study led by scientists from Environment Agency Austria. (1) The volunteers wrote down what they ate for a week and then provided a stool sample(大便样本) for testing.
(2) About 20 small plastic particles (颗粒) were found in every 10 grams (克)of stool. " The smallest plastic particles can enter the blood, the lymphatic system, and may even reach the liver (肝脏), "said Philipp Schwabl, who took part in the research.

A bus ran off a bridge into the Yangtze River in Chongqing on October 28, 2018.The accident(1) (cause) by a fight between the driver and a passenger, killing all 15 people on the bus.
According to the police report, a 48﹣year﹣old female passenger, surnamed Liu,argued with the driver, surnamed Ran. Liu was angry because Ran refused(2) (stop) the bus after she missed her station. She then hit the driver, causing the accident. The video shows that Liu hit Ran with her mobile phone twice while Ran(3) (drive) the bus. Rather than stop in the middle of the road, Ran kept driving. But in protecting himself, he lost control of the bus and a tragedy(悲剧)happened.
The police said that both Liu and Ran had broken criminal law by seriously endangering (危及) public safety. And the police(4) (announce),"Liu hit the driver with her phone and prevented the driver from driving the bus safely. The driver,too, didn't do his best to make sure that his driving was safe."

The population of the world continues to increase, but in some areas the population is falling.This is true in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe. In Russia, the population is going down by about 100 people EVERY HOUR! Russia's population could fall by ONE THIRD by the year 2050! And in Poland (波兰)the population is also going down because people are leaving to work in other countries.
One of the main reasons is a change of lifestyle. All over Europe people, especially educated women, have a different attitude (态度)to children than their parents."I have one child and she is enough for me, "said Galina Tereschkova, a doctor from Moscow. "My husband and I both work full﹣time. We can't imagine having more than one child. "Many women decide to have children later in life or not to have children at all. "I don't want to have any children until I have worked for at least 10 years, "said 19﹣year﹣old student Hana Markova from Prague. Her opinion is typical of 18﹣24 year old women everywhere in Europe.
In Poland, the population is going down for a different reason. A lot of people,usually aged between 20 and 30, are leaving the country to work abroad. Poland joined the European Union in 2005 and since then more than half a million people have moved to Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy. Even so, the population of those four countries and many other countries in West Europe is also going down.
Many governments are now encouraging people to have larger families. In France,women now receive nearly 1,000 a month for a year if they have a third child.Austrian women receive 700 a month for three years when they have their first child.
(1)Where in the world is the population getting smaller?
(2)How many children does Galina Tereschkova want to have?
(3)What does Hana Markova want to do before she has children?
(4)Why is the population in Poland going down?
(5)How does the French government encourage people to have larger families now?
