Each day, over five million Americans are exposed on the job to at least 90 db, the maximum safe level for an eight-hour period according to the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration. "This standard isn't ideal, because noise affects individuals differently," says William Clark of Washington University's Central Institute for the Deaf in St. Louis. "In theory, the standard should protect the lifetime hearing ofg0 percent of workers. However, it assumes that a worker's ears will have 16 hours of quiet each day during which to recover -- an unlikely assumption for most people."
Sound causes thousands of tiny hairs in the inner ear to vibrate. These vibrations trigger nerve impulses to the brain, which are perceived as sound. Prolonged exposure to 85 db or more, or far shorter exposure to very intense levels -- such as the 140-db shock waves from a shotgun blast -- can irrevocably damage some of these delicate inner-ear hairs. Ronald Reagan suffered permanent injury during his acting days when a 38-caliber pistol loaded with blanks was fired near his right ear. As a result, he now wears a hearing aid. Audiologists predict that by the year 2000, as many people could be wearing hearing aids as now wear contact lenses.
Many people believe that weaker hearing is an inevitable part of aging. But studies show that those who live in low-noise environments tend to have very little hearing loss in old age.
In noisy industrial nations, however, even young people suffer damaged hearing. David Lipscomb, a former professor of audiology at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, tested over a thousand incoming freshmen and discovered that six of every ten had heating loss typical of the elderly. Rock music is one cause. The noise in a reek-concert hall can easily exceed 120 db, roughly the level of an air-raid siren. High-tech gadgets such as powerful portable stereos also threaten to put our hearing into a downward spiral.
Based on the logarithmic scale discussed in the first paragraph, how many times can a shotgun blast be more powerful than rock music？
A．10.
B．100.
C．1,000.
D．10,000.
Teaching Poetry
No poem should ever be discussed or "analyzed", until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.
All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling "interpretation" of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the word in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting (背诵) it.
I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than "analyzing" it, if there isn't time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is "a criticism of life", and "a heightening (提升) of life". It is "an approach to the truth of feeling", and it "can save your life". It also deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central than it presently occupies.
I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who don't like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.
To have a better understanding of a poem, one should ______.
A．discuss it with others
B．analyze it by oneself
C．copy it down in a notebook
D．practice reading it aloud

Deafness
Latest Situation
About 16-million people in the United States have lost some of their hearing. About 2-million others are extremely or completely deaf. They can not hear speech or most other sounds in their everyday environment, even with a hearing aid to make sounds louder.
Categories of Hearing Loss
There are several kinds of hearing loss. One is conductive hearing loss. It results from disease or injury to the outer or middle part of the ear. The damage prevents sound waves from reaching the inner ear. Usually, this form. of hearing loss is not extreme. And a hearing aid or medical treatment often can restore hearing.
A second kind of hearing loss involves the nerves. It is caused by damage to the inner ear. A loud noise or disease may destroy some of the tiny nerve cells that carry sound. People suffering this kind of damage may lose the ability to hear some sounds, high or low. For example, they may be able to hear the low noise of a truck, but not speech. Hearing aids usually can not help people with this kind of deafness.
The third kind of deafness is called a central hearing loss. It is caused by damage to the hearing nerves leading to the brain or in the brain itself.
Causes of Deafness
Deafness is the most common bodily disability in America. Often nothing can be done to stop it. But many cases can be prevented.
One simple thing is responsible for most hearing loss. That one thing is noise—telephone bells, loud music, vehicles, or machines. In industrial countries, especially, these things make the environment very noisy. Studies have shown that old men in quiet African villages have much better hearing than young people in America.
Other causes of deafness include accidents, brain tumors, some drugs, and car infections or other illnesses. Babies born too early may have damaged hearing. And about half of all deafness is at least partly caused by damaged genes, passed from parent to child. Rarely do the parents know they possess a gene for deafness. They can hear very well. Yet their child is born deaf. More than 90 percent of deaf children are born to hearing parents.
Problems Caused by Deafness
Not everyone who is deaf is disabled in the same way. This is because the disability generally depends on two things: the age at which hearing is lost, and the amount of deafness. Those who lose their hearing early in life—before they have learned to speak—usually have greater problems than those who lose it later in life.
One problem is communication. The deaf are cut-off from the language used by hearing people around them. But deaf people around the world have created hundreds of languages that are spoken with the hands. Most deaf people in North America use American Sign Language to communicate with each other. In the United States, it is the fourth most commonly used language following English, Spanish and Italian.
For many deaf Americans, English is a second language. They learned American Sign Language first. People who learn sign language as their first language think in it. They even dream in it. As hearing people may talk in their sleep, deaf people may make signs in their sleep.
For many years, American Sign Language was banned in schools for the deaf in the United States. Educators feared that sign language would keep deaf people from communicating with hearing people. Today, schools for the deaf have begun to accept American Sign Language. Few classes are taught completely in American Sign Language. But some teachers mix American Sign Language with a sign language form. of English called "Signed English". The idea is to permit deaf people to use any methods of communication they find useful.
Devices to Help the Deaf
Educators are not the only ones trying
A．Y
B．N
C．NG
