How to protect your ears
You and your friends are leaving a concert on a Friday night. When you get outside, your ears are ringing. You have to shout to be heard. 1._So no harm done…right?
Not quite. Temporary buzzing may be easy to ignore, but repeated exposure to loud noise will eventually cause serious and irreversible(无法治愈的) hearing loss. A new study conducted by researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston shows that one in five people between the ages of 12 and 19 are experiencing slight hearing loss, and one in 20 have mild hearing loss._ 2. __But the good news is that there plenty of ways you can protect your ears from further damage — and still listen to the music you love:
Ask around. Put your ear buds in or your headphones on, and then ask a friend next to you whether or not he or she can hear what you’re listening to.__ 3.__Turn it down.
Buy noise-canceling headphones. A pair of ear buds or headphones that fits comfortably will limit outside noise so that you can hear your music better at lower volumes.
Take breaks.__ 4.__So when listening to music, take your headphones off for 15 or 20 minutes and let your ears enjoy the quiet.
___5.__You can buy a cheap pair at any drugstore as an easy way to lower volume at concerts — or while playing or practicing your own music — without changing the quality of the sound.
A. Use earplugs.
B. Keep the volume below 70 percent.
C. If the answer is yes, your music is too loud.
D. Like every other part of your body, your ears need rest.
E. But by morning, your hearing is totally back to normal.
F. Unfortunately, there’s no way to get back hearing you’ve already lost.
G.. The exposure to noise is louder and longer than in any previous generation.

Has this happened to you? You’re about to drift off to sleep when suddenly you feel like you’re falling or coming down on a roller coaster.
You then wake up to realize that you’re safe in your bed. You may have been confused or frightened for a second or two and your heart may be beating faster. You may have also felt the muscles in your body jerk(抽搐) when this all happened. Did you ever wonder why?
This falling sensation, together with a body movement known as a “sleep start”, is what doctors and scientists call a myoclonic(肌阵挛的)jerk, and it usually happens right before going into deeper stages of sleep. Here’s why doctors think the falling feeling and myoclonic jerks happen. When you fall asleep, normally your body temperature goes down and your heart start to beat just a little slower. This is because your brain signals your body to relax to prepare for sleep. When your muscles are relaxed, you go into the very first stages of sleep, but you’re not sleeping too deeply yet.
This brain activity may cause your larger muscles to contract(收缩) a little bit. In response, another part of your brain will make up a very quick mini-dream to go along with what is happening. You might think this would take a while, but your brain works so fast that it makes up the story almost at the same instant that your muscles jerk.
During this light sleep, you can be awakened easily. People who wake up during this light sleep believe they haven’t fallen asleep yet. That’s why you may think that your body jerked right before you were about to fall asleep.
Myoclonic jerk are a normal part of sleep. Most people have them at one time or another. But many people don’t realize their muscles are jerking during night sleep if it doesn’t wake them up.
So the next time you dream about falling and wake up in a sweat, don’t worry! Your body is just telling your muscles to relax and get some rest!
1.People sometimes wake up during a light sleep because______.
A. they are disturbed by others.
B. they are too tired to fall asleep.
C. their bodies are preparing for sleep.
D. they believe their lives are in danger.
2. What does the underlined part “ what is happening” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The body jerk B. The mini- dream
C. The slow heartbeat D. The falling body temperature
3.The author thinks myoclonic jerks during sleep are _____.
A. worrying B. usual C. abnormal D. useful
4.It can be inferred that myoclonic jerks ________.
A. lead to muscle disease
B. happen in a deep sleep
B. are related to brain disease

Animals are not always animals. Some of them will try to cheat or cow some others in the way the human beings often do. Here is a fairy tale from Aesop for you to enjoy.
An eagle(鹰)made her nest at the top of a high tree while a cat, having found a convenient hole, moved into the middle of the trunk, and at the same time a wild pig, with her young took shelter in a hollow at its foot. The cat then decided to make all serve her in her wise way.
To carry out her design, she climbed to the nest of the eagle, saying, "Destruction is preparing for you and for me too, unfortunately. The wild pig, whom you see daily digging up the earth, wishes to uproot the tree, so she may on its fall seize our families as food for her young."
Having thus frightened the eagle out of her senses, she crept down to the cave of the pig, saying, "Your children are in great danger, for as soon as you go out to find food, the eagle is prepared to jump upon one of your little pigs."
Having filled these fears into the pig, she went and pretended to hide herself in the hollow of the tree. When night came she went out silently and obtained food for herself and her children, but pretending to be afraid, she kept a lookout all through the day. Meanwhile, the eagle, full of fear of the pig, sat still on the branches, and the pig, terrified by the eagle, did not dare to go out from her cave. Thus they both, along with their families, starved from hunger, and afforded good food for the cat and her children.
1.What was the eagle afraid of?
A. Her home would be destroyed.
B. Her children would get lost.
C. She would be taken as the cat’s food.
D. Her family would be eaten by the wild pig.
2. What was the pig frightened of?
A. The eagle would kill her young child.
B. The eagle would cheat her away.
C. The cat was telling the true story.
D. She could not find enough food.
3. How did the cat get what she wanted?
A. By running here and there.
B. By cheating both the eagle and the pig.
C. By waiting and catching the chance.
D. By fighting against the eagle and the pig.
4. Which of the following might be the best title of the above passage?

I’m trying to be a writer, but I can’t even start. What should I do?
Abraham, Nebraska
There are many ways to come up with ideas, one of which is to write down a list of your experiences, as well as things from your imagination. When you want to write, look in the notebook for ideas.
