Passage 1

Once upon a time, a tortoise lived in a pond(池塘) with two ducks. She enjoyed being with them because she could talk as much as she liked.

After many years, the pond became very low in a dry season and finally it dried up. The two ducks decided to fly to another place. They went to say goodbye to the tortoise.

“Oh, don't leave me behind!” begged(恳求) the tortoise. “Take me with you. I must die if I am left here.”

“” said the ducks. “How can we take you with us?”

Finally, the ducks had a nice idea. They said, “We will each take hold of one end of a stick, and you take the middle in your mouth. Then we will fly up in the air and carry you with us. But remember not to talk! If you open your mouth, you'll be lost.”

The tortoise said she would not say a word.

When they were above the treetops, the tortoise wanted to say, “How high we are!” But she remembered what the ducks said and kept still. When they passed the church(教堂), she wanted to say, “What is that which shines?” But she remembered what t he ducks said and held her peace. Then they came over the village square.

Passage 2

Do you often listen to music at loud volumes(音量)? Over one billion(十亿)young people are at risk of hearing loss(失聪)because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes is harmful to your hearing.

The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 decibels(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 ears(内耳). Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells(听毛细胞) in our inner ears. 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.

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 realising it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.

The World Health Organisation said the “safe level” for most sounds is below 80 dB for up

to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is roughly equal to(大约相当于) the noise of a subway.

1.Many young people are at risk of hearing loss because they . ( )

A.watch TV every day

B.listen to music every day

C.listen to loud noise in the subway

D.listen to loud noise for a long time

2.What is loud noise harmful to? ( )

A.The inner ears.

B.The brain.

C.The heart.

D.The eyes.

3.What can you learn from the passage? ( )

A.We feel comfortable when listening to loud music in a quiet place.

B.Most people are born with about 1,600 hair cells in the inner ears.

C.It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB for 15 minutes.

D.Below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week is the “safe level” for most sounds.

4.What is the best title of the passage? ( )

A.Keep the Loud Volumes

B.Loud Noise Is Harmful to Hearing

C.The Risk of Listening to Music

D.Loud Noise Stops Ears from Working
